TNB->Seminole Tribe: Seminoles have a rags-to-riches story
Posted on Friday, April 27 @ 03:11:47 PDT (3271 reads)
|
AUTHOR: Sue Reisinger, Seminole Corporate Counsel
Several times last autumn, the Florida Seminoles' efforts to buy Hard Rock Cafe International Inc. hit a snag. Some tribal leaders balked at spending nearly a billion dollars for the hotel/restaurant/casino franchise; they didn't want to hear advice from outsiders, such as Wall Street investment bankers, to go ahead with the deal. It was tribe general counsel Jim Shore -- the first Seminole to graduate from law school -- who saved the day and the deal.

Rez->Lake Traverse: Mercury-tainted fish are a concern in Great Lakes communities
Posted on Saturday, August 19 @ 01:00:07 PDT (2883 reads)

AUTHOR: John Flesher, AP Environmental Writer
WELLSTON, Mich. (AP) - As the setting sun cast long shadows over Pine Lake,
its surface rippled by a gentle breeze, Jimmie Mitchell dropped a pinch of
tobacco into the water - a gesture of gratitude for nature's bounty.
Mitchell, chairman of the natural resources commission with the Little River
Band of Ottawa Indians, and tribal biologist Marty Holtgren have netted 11
yellow perch and two bluegill from the small lake in southern Manistee County.
Their mission is partly scientific - evaluating fish population dynamics in
area lakes. But the perch and bluegill will be frozen and eventually served
during a ceremony, perhaps a funeral or festival. To the Anishnaabe tribes of
northern Michigan, fish is more than just food. It's a link with past
generations, a symbol of cultural identity.

A. David Lester, Executive Director, Council on Energy Resources Tribes (CERT) writes, “Indian business is not about money, it is about expressing our deeply held Indian Values in economic terms, to allow us to serve one another. Money is not the goal, money is a means, to allow a person to live according to our Indian ways.” (1) The late Ira C. Booth, Tribal Historian, Tsimshian quotes “Tribal Economic Development in reality would be a re-discovery of who we are as tribal people.”

WASHINGTON, Feb 8, 2002 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Inupiat Eskimos from the North Slope of Alaska questioned the validity of Presbyterian leader Dr. Tom English's generalization that Presbyterians are opposed to opening the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) to energy exploration.
Most Presbyterian residents in ANWR -- the Inupiat Eskimos -- support development.
In a press conference Wednesday on Capitol Hill, thousands of miles from the North Slope, clergy and lay people joined The Wilderness Society and Senator Joseph Lieberman (D-CT) as they expressed their theological and religious reasons for opposing Arctic drilling, and their solidarity with the Gwich'in Indians.
