Treaty Stories: Reclaiming The Unbroken History Of Lac Courte Oreilles Ojibwe Sovereignty, Margaret Huettl
Treaty Stories: Reclaiming The Unbroken History Of Lac Courte Oreilles Ojibwe Sovereignty, Margaret Huettl
Department of History: Faculty Publications
Ojibwe leaders negotiated treaties with the United States amid nineteenth-century encroachments on their territory. These treaties, which were more than tools of dispossession, enfolded and extended aadizookanag (sacred stories) in agreements that embodied Ojibwe relationships with land, language, sacred history, ceremony, and kin. Federal and state policy makers, fueled by the desire for Indian land and resources, attempted to unravel these relationships in the decades that followed. By continuing to live out through labor and stories their relationships with the woods, waters, and manoomin (wild rice) beds of Anishinaabewaki, the Lac Courte Oreilles Ojibweg kept their treaties and their sovereignty …
An Application Of Lakota Ethics To The Contemporary American Waste Crisis, Erika Marchant
An Application Of Lakota Ethics To The Contemporary American Waste Crisis, Erika Marchant
Student Research
In this paper, I discuss the unethical nature of modern American waste systems and individual practices, focusing on the benefits of adopting elements of indigenous land care ethics. Specifically, I discuss the opportunities for sustainable improvement found in the Lakota perspective of humans’ relationship with the land, such as the frugality epitomized in their hunting, harvesting, and material culture. Lakotan environmental consciousness is ultimately owing to the centrality of their spiritual convictions and traditions, which are, of course, not replicable in the non-indigenous Western context; although we will certainly never be able to understand nor internalize the heart of Lakota …
The Stolen Children: Their Stories: Aboriginal Child Removal Policy And Consequences, Peter U. Wildgruber
The Stolen Children: Their Stories: Aboriginal Child Removal Policy And Consequences, Peter U. Wildgruber
Student Publications
From 1910 to 1970, the Australian government embarked on a policy of Aboriginal child removal which sought to acculturate Aborigine children of mixed descent into white Australian society. The 1997 report, Bringing Them Home, records the individual testimonies of hundreds of victims of child removal and argues that prolonged familial separation caused irreparable damage to native Australian communities. Carmel Bird’s edited version of the report, The Stolen Children: Their Stories, was published in 1998 to disseminate the report's findings and advocate for legislative action. Her book includes the stories of seventeen individuals and responses to the original report …

Looking Beyond Binaries: How Native Activists Create Decolonized Futures, Sam Guido
Looking Beyond Binaries: How Native Activists Create Decolonized Futures, Sam Guido
Honors Program: Senior Projects (Public)
Native people in the United States and Canada have been resisting settler colonialism for as long as settlers have tried to impose it upon them. That activism has been continuous across centuries; however, sometimes that overall narrative has been lost due to the imposition of settler perspectives that constrain Native activism. Recent Native activist movements in the United States and Canada such as the anti-Keystone Pipeline protests and Idle No More received a lot of attention from both the public and the media, but there was an impulse to define these movements within binary categories like “male or female” or …

This Land Is Their Land, Char Miller
Eastern Sierra History Journal
An 1891 petition to the United States government from the Indigenous people of the Yosemite Valley in the central Sierras offers a blistering indictment of the settler-colonial expropriation of their homeland and a counter narrative to conservationists who have debated for more than a century the impact of flooding the Hetch Hetchy Valley to provide water to San Francisco.

Sheep Replace Pronghorn: An Environmental History Of The Mono Basin, Robert B. Marks
Sheep Replace Pronghorn: An Environmental History Of The Mono Basin, Robert B. Marks
Eastern Sierra History Journal
This article examines the ways in which the hunting-gathering people of the Mono Basin lived before their way of life and environment was overturned by the nineteenth-century arrival of Euro-American settlers with vastly different ways of interacting with the environment. And it tracks some of these alterations by tracking when and how sheep replaced pronghorns.

National Youth Advocacy & Resilience Conference
This presentation will demonstrate how Hip Hop and African American History are used as educational teaching tools in our evidenced based program to promote social, emotional, and violence prevention skills. Explorations from the African diaspora, historical trauma, slavery, post traumatic slave syndrome to decoding and deconstructing hip hop elements all intersect to provide the basis of violence prevention, and more profoundly social and emotional balance.
A Reimagining Of The Chacoan World, Larry Benson, Richard W. Loose
A Reimagining Of The Chacoan World, Larry Benson, Richard W. Loose
United States Geological Survey: Staff Publications
A new paradigm of the Chacoan world is presented, wherein Chaco Canyon is considered to be a mostly unoccupied architectural complex that functioned primarily as a pilgrimage destination. Chaco was the political, religious, and social focal point of people living in outlying regions. The resident population of the Canyon consisted of a small number of caretakers, charged with maintaining great house structures, food supplies, and their ceremonial contents. Chacoan chiefdoms were mostly located in large, well-watered, agriculturally-based communities situated at the base of mountains that ring the San Juan Basin, e.g., the Chuskas. Chiefly elites lived year-round in those areas, …

Maya America: Journal of Essays, Commentary, and Analysis
Originario de la comunidad maya de Noh Cah, en el municipio de Felipe Carrillo Puerto, en el estado de Quintana Roo, México. Desde 1976 hasta la fecha, han sido incontables las exposiciones pictóricas en las que ha participado, ya en forma individual, ya en forma colectiva y su labor pictórica, didáctica, de promoción, gestión y difusión cultural ha sido ininterrumpida. Sus acciones en el contexto de la creación, promoción y difusión han contribuido para que las propuestas del arte y cultura maya actual tengan presencia en nuevos escenarios y destinatarios, tanto en el ámbito cultural local, regional, nacional e internacional.

Variations On Hunting And Care: Ownership, Kinship And Other Interspecific Relationships In The Eastern Amazon, Uirá Garcia
Variations On Hunting And Care: Ownership, Kinship And Other Interspecific Relationships In The Eastern Amazon, Uirá Garcia
Tipití: Journal of the Society for the Anthropology of Lowland South America
This article is based on fieldwork among the Guajá people, a small indigenous group of Tupí-Guaraní speakers inhabiting the eastern portion of Brazil’s Amazon region. Aiming for an ethnographic definition of kinship, this article engages in issues related to the figure of the “owner/masterin the Amazon, proposing a dialogue with a seldom discussed aspect of this subject—namely, its relation to conjugality. I argue that relationships included in the universe of “familiarity” and “mastery” are not only coextensive with the field of kinship; they also reveal a very particular conception of humanity. The process of Awá-Guajá kinship, where the spouse is …

La Universidad Ixil Y La Descolonización Del Conocimiento, Giovanni Batz
Maya America: Journal of Essays, Commentary, and Analysis
La academia es considerada por muchos como un eje del colonialismo que monopoliza la producción del conocimiento. Fuera de las paredes de la torre de marfil de la academia, existen muchos esfuerzos de las comunidades indígenas y grupos marginados para crear sus propias formas y espacios de producción de conocimiento y educación. Los Mayas en la región Ixil, Guatemala están teorizando y debatiendo estas preguntas sobre las funciones de la educación a través de la Universidad Ixil, fundada en 2011, y la cual se esfuerza por enseñar a los estudiantes formas del conocimiento Maya-Ixil, sus saberes, valores y tichajil (el …

Los Vecinos De Este Pueblo Quieren Fiesta: Celebraciones Patronales Y Corridas De Toros Durante La Prohibición Revolucionaria En Yucatán, Julián Dzul Nah
Maya America: Journal of Essays, Commentary, and Analysis
Este artículo explora una época que las corridas de toros celebradas en Yucatán —llamadas paywakax en lengua maya— fueron suprimidas por el régimen revolucionario de Salvador Alvarado y algunos de sus sucesores socialistas en la gubernatura del Estado (1915-1924). Aunque la información al respecto contenida en documentos locales de la época se antoja parca en detalles, ésta es útil para esbozar la complejidad de un momento en que mientras la política estatal se daba a la tarea de “desbarbarizar” y “desfanatizar a los indios”, los habitantes del Yucatán rural —algunos de ellos militantes o autoridades socialistas— se empeñaban en mantener …

Los Conflictos Del Gran Consejo Maya: Dinámicas De La Relación Entre Los Mayas Macehuales Y El Estado De Quintana Roo, Hilda Landrove Torres

En los dos últimos años, los ‘dignatarios’ mayas macehuales de la zona central de Quintana Roo se han visto enfrentados a un conflicto que ha causado una profunda división. El objetivo del presente artículo es explorar, a través de un acercamiento etnográfico complementado con información histórica, la relación entre el grupo maya macehual y las instituciones creadas para atender a las comunidades mayas del Estado de Quintana Roo, así como los mecanismos que permiten regular la actuación de los jefes que forman parte de dichas instituciones. Poniendo atención fundamentalmente en los mecanismos que son puestos en juego en dicha relación, …
