MailBag Archive: Where can I find a war tomahawk?
Posted on Friday, February 27 @ 11:25:32 CST (1475 reads)

QUESTION:
Hi Folks !

Where can i Find a war tomahawk?

I guess the Indians didn't fight with a Tomahawk, which is at the same time a peacepipe. The hole throughout the shaft for smoke,would make the Tomahawk weak. The back of the blade (Tomahawk) must have been a sharp peak or dull, to crush human head.

Have you a good picture for a Tattoo? I need one as well aa an origanal picture of a Peace pipe.

I know the end of a pipe was make of a special stone. What is the name of it?

I would be very happy if you can find anybody to send a few pictures of these two things.

Editorials: Pope's remarks whitewashed the genocide of Indigenous Proples
Posted on Saturday, January 24 @ 18:16:55 CST (859 reads)

Wahkon writes Hopefully, Pope Benedict XVI will soon formally revoke the 15th century papal bulls which were primarily responsible for the horrible atrocities committed against Indigenous Peoples and then lead the Catholic Church and Western “Civilization” through a process of radical transformation. And by doing so, lead humanity into a new age, wherein Indigenous Peoples will be given their due respect.

Issues->Racism: Independent Indigenous Sovereign Nations
Posted on Saturday, January 24 @ 18:13:07 CST (649 reads)

Wahkon writes The indigenous peoples living in this land our still being denied three of their--endowed by the Creator--unalienable equality rights, or fundamental human rights. The right to absolute root ownership of their scared traditional/ancestral homelands, the right to be recognized and treated as full independent sovereign nations and the--freedom of religion--right to fully re-establish their traditional religions within their sacred ancestral homelands.

Activists->Canadian: Sovereignty
Posted on Saturday, January 24 @ 18:09:16 CST (254 reads)

Anonymous writes “Canada the country” is a European based organization established in 1867, located on unceded Native lands. The Dominion Lands Act (1872) granted 160 acres to any settler 21 years of age or older, with a $10.00 registration fee. The land that was granted simply was not theirs to grant.

Lit->NA Poems: Border Crossing Rights-kids poem-teacher tool
Posted on Saturday, January 24 @ 18:03:15 CST (485 reads)

Anonymous writes From the time that Skywoman fell
North America was on a turtle shell
Native people were free to roam
Turtle Island, our natural home.

Since 1492 we see and saw
Treaties that are still the law
The list is long and tattered too
So this is if you never knew,

The first ones were legal deeds
Two separate lines in wampum beads
Distinct ways, words, and ceremony
Governance and territory.

John Jay's Treaty (article 3) of 1794*
Was also known as so much more
Treaty of Amity, Commerce and Navigation
Recognized a sovereign nation

The border we called the ‘medicine line’
A margin of colonial design
The 1812 Washington treaty
Guaranteed our right to cross freely

1814 (article 9) Treaty of Ghent*
Reaffirmed what sovereignty meant
Three treaties that still recognize
Native people did not colonize

Again a treaty in 1842
Re-reaffirmed what we always knew
Another Washington treaty that would enforce
Our inherent right to cross of course

July 14, 1928
IDLA made no debate
Inherent rights to cross their line
Confirmed in Article 3* and Article 9*

In mid-July every year
There’s a crossing, you may hear
Autonomous homelands, our steps display
Within Canada and the USA

Inherent first, and treaty right
To cross their border, day and night
At the Whirlpool Bridge near the Falls you’ll see
Our people practice Sovereignty

Posted on Saturday, January 24 @ 16:40:58 CST (586 reads)

For a student to be eligible for many Native American scholarships, such as BIA scholarships, the student should be an enrolled member of a federally recognized tribe. Otherwise funding will most likely be denied. A Certificate of Indian Blood (CIB) card or document is generally accepted proof of membership in a federally recognized tribe.
