Fort Sill Apache Tribe

Log Number: NAE-246625-OLS-20

Fort Sill Apache Tribe will make the recorded voices of the Apache prisoners of war seized by the Geronimo in 1886 accessible to tribal library users. These recordings address Chihene Apache experiences on the Warm Springs reservation (circa 1870-1878), in the Mexican Sierra Madres with the Nednai Apaches (1881-1883), after seizure as Apache prisoners of war (1886-1914), and throughout the 20th century post-imprisonment Oklahoma life and federal tribal recognition (1914-1970s). This project will ensure long-term preservation of accurate and unbiased Apache history that is not captured in books.
