Podcast radio interview by J. Kehaulani Kauanui with Tonya Gonnella Frichner (Onondaga Nation, Snipe Clan), the North American Representative of the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues, on "Indigenous Politics." Topics for discussion focus on the politics of indigenous self-determination under international law, the distinction between minorities and Indigenous peoples, and the decades-long struggle to draft and pass the U.N. Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, as well as the opposition by New Zealand, Australia, Canada, and the United States (the only four States that voted against it).

NativeWeb has moved to a new and improved web server. As part of our upgrades to content and materials, which we call NativeWeb 2.0, we maintain several new ideas for our community of participants and viewers:
- NativeWiki - you've heard of Wikipedia? NativeWeb is exploring ways to make our site more interactive, so you can contribute original sites and materials.

- Never saw what you wanted on our website? How about participating in a poll to tell us what you want?
- An announcement list with occasional messages of interest to Native peoples:
