The Tony Redhouse Show...a new friend of T.S. Minton Blogs.

I've appeared several times on a new show on Access Tucson..."The Tony Redhouse Show"... a fascinating showcase for the aformentioned hoop dancer and Navajo teacher, and the always unexpected happenings that he brings about by his encouragement, nay insistence on audience participation.

Among all the accomplishments, I just wonder if it is also Native American tradition to abandon their young as Mr. Redhouse did.
