Item Title
Indian Buckaroos Working on the 96 Ranch
Author/Creator
Narrator: Northrup, Tex
Vennum, Thomas, Jr., interviewer.
Created/Published
July 25,1981
Notes
Tex Northrup talks about short-term Native American buckarooing on the 96 Ranch.
This video includes Northrup's perspective on the difficulty of keeping Native American workers on the ranch for short periods and offers an insight into his role as a broker between two cultures.
Les's discussion of his difficulties keeping temporary help is reminiscent of his remarks about hay crews quitting abruptly during holiday weekends <v019>. Of course, those remarks applied to both white and Indian workers.
