In 1974, I started four years of recording oral history and the collection of primary documents of a community Indianwhite Oklahoma. It was a requirement for a doctorate in social anthropology at the University of Oklahoma. I have the dissertation, and after approval, request that certain documents were not published for ten years or more. I never intended to permanently remove the material, but two women aged Cheyenne, already in advance of the publication of their daily stress and relationship with other members of the Indian community, request that I had collected materials will be not be published until some time after death. They were concerned about the comments that they may have done for me during this period of time on their family and friends who may be subject to the interpretation involuntary. One person in particular, feared that his close friends knew that she was a disparaging remark that would be a vengeful ghost calls made.
these women their life of misery to an alien place, they always talked openly with insight and humor. But when it comes to the other, they tend to quietly and with an implied understanding of confidentiality speak. Sometimes a woman Cheyenne says the ambivalence of his view of the community or the rest of the world recorded and published, because she believed that aliens are somehow misinterpreted the information. However, several other community thought Cheyenne needed exposure for his problems and believes that it can help foreigners better understand and treat them more fairly.
