WBGH series to provide video phones to Native Americans

NativeAmericans1800s.jpg The PBS “American Experience” program, which is produced by WGBH, is planning a five-part series telling the history of Native Americans. Boston Herald reports.

"The series plans to hold workshops teaching people how to use the video cell phones to make short videos, which it then hopes to pass along through a mobile phone network.

The videos will also be included on a Web site for the series and possibly on DVDs, said Sharon Grimberg, series producer for “American Experience.

The amateur documentarians will be asked to focus on a place, whether it be a reservation or a house or even a tree."
