COYOTE: Going Along TELEVISION SERIES IT'S TIME TO CHANGE NATIVE AMERICAN HISTORY The Bering Land Bridge Meet Old Man COYOTE, an American Indian hero with a thousand faces -- and a thousand tricks. He was born before the Stone Age and he is the oldest reflection of ancient man and myth. He is a teacher and a trickster, an ancient mythological creature who instructed early man in the ways of right and wrong, survival, lore and celebration. Many winters, his stories distracted early men from their empty bellies. The Coyote legend was born of hunger. Though often the victim of his own tomfoolery and lusty attributes. Coyote has manoeuvred his way -- with clever magic and cagey laughter -- through trials and troubles to guide the creation of the American Indian culture. Researching this, I have transcribed 268 tales from 62 Native American gatherings. This television show should capture and display the entire Coyote universe and expand on these wildly popular stories. Today the old Native stories still have a link to many contemporary American issues - food security, community and the economy, safety and security and culture loss. This television program will be full of history, politics, survival, romantic adventures, entertainment and doleful wisdom for Native American youth. Who is Coyote? Shapeshifter and magician Hero and Native problem solver Screwup and flawed character Healthy amorous suitor Wise teacher and quick thinker Rhetorician and demagogue for the oppressed Envoy of the Great Spirit Protector of the Native cultures
