- Abstract
The <italic>Indians for Indians Hour</italic>, a Native Oklahoma radio show founded by Don Whistler (Sac and Fox) in 1941 and continuing to the present day, was from its start a landmark in Indigenous media history and community radio more broadly. The show’s extensive audio archive reveals the way it worked to connect many communities otherwise poorly served by mass media. <italic>Indians for Indians</italic> demonstrated under-recognized dimensions of radio during its so-called Golden Age, and helped build an intertribal community in twentieth-century Oklahoma.
