The second interview is with Brenda Golden: Muscogee (Creek): an active and vocal member of S.P.I.R.I.T: (Society to Preserve the Indigenous Rights and Indigenous Traditions) based in Oklahoma. This interview was conducted two days before her organization was presenting "the State of Oklahoma with a Resolution calling for the end of land run re-enactments in public schools and to teach the true history in schools." With members spanning all across the USA, Brenda says , "SPIRIT is a group of individuals dedicated to getting the true history of American Indians told. We organized for the purpose of making a difference in the state of Oklahoma. Brought together initially during the November 16th Survival Walk and Remembrance Day, SPIRIT is moving forward with addressing issues affecting all Indigenous Peoples of the Americas."

The Navajos are the largest Native American tribe in North America. They live in northern Arizona and New Mexico, caught between their traditions and modern life. Within, the people have to reconcile opposing cultures. Although they are faced with dominating Western values on the reservation, a minority of them try to maintain their own culture, language, and religion. It still is difficult for Native Americans to find their place in the American society. During his travels on the reservation, the author met some politically and culturally engaged Navajos, and he had the opportunity to participate in a religious ceremony. The german version was aired in Germany: Sunday, Feb. 1, 2004, 11:05 – 12:00 AM, Norddeutscher Rundfunk Hamburg
