  • Outline of United States Federal Indian Law and Policy
    Outline of United States federal Indian law and policy The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to United States federal Indian law and policy: Federal Indian policy – establishes the relationship between the United States Government and the Indian Tribes within its borders. The Constitution gives the federal government primary responsibility for dealing with tribes. Law and U.S. public policy related to Native Americans have evolved continuously since the founding of the United States. David R. Wrone argues that the failure of the treaty system was because of the inability of an individualistic, democratic society to recognize group rights or the value of an organic, corporatist culture represented by the tribes.[1] U.S. Supreme Court cases List of United States Supreme Court cases involving Indian tribes Citizenship Adoption Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians v.

The piece was created by Mr. Guardipee, who is from the Blackfeet Tribe in Montana and is known all over the country and internationally for his amazing ledger map collage paintings and other works of art. He was among the very first artists to revive the ledger art tradition and in the process has made it into his own map collage concept. These works of art incorporate traditional Blackfeet images into Mr. Guardipee’s contemporary form of ledger art. He attended the Institute of American Indian Arts in Sante Fe, New Mexico. His work has won top awards at the Santa Fe Market, the Heard Museum Indian Market, and the Autrey Museum Intertribal Market Place.

That’s more than 2,300 Fellows and Rebuilders, and more than 1,700 grantees—a roll call that inspires us every day. One thing nearly everyone shared with us last year was their desire to stay connected to the Foundation, to follow the continued progress of the remarkable individuals and FEATURES organizations that we’ve intersected with over the years and to pass on some of the lessons they’ve learned. We listened, and so we’re introducing b, a showcase for people who are thinking bigger and thinking differently about what’s possible in their communities.

  • Sean Sherman's 10 Essential Native American Recipes
    11/5/2019 Sean Sherman's 10 Essential Native American Recipes - The New York Times the Xtur Uork it-inter Sean Sherman's 10 Essential Native American Recipes The founder of The Sioux Chef, a company devoted to Indigenous foods, created recipes to showcase tribal diversity across the lower 48 states. Growing up on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in the 1970s, I ran wild with my cousins through my grandparents' cattle ranch,over the hot, sandy South Dakota land of burrs and paddle cactus, hiding in the sparse grasses and rolling hills. We raced over the open plains, and through shelter belts of tall elm trees, the air full of dust and sagebrush. Our dogs chased prairie dogs, pheasants, grouse and antelope, and alerted us to rattlesnakes and jack rabbits. In late summer, we'd harvest chokecherries and timpsula, a wild prairie turnip, and pick juniper berries off the prickly trees. We camped in the Badlands, sleeping under the stars, and gathered in our family's rustic log cabin deep in the Black Hills. Back then, there were no restaurants on Pine Ridge,just one grocery store and a couple of gas stations dotting the immense reservation. Our kitchen cupboards were stocked with government commodity food staples — canned fruit, canned meat, powdered milk, bricks of yellow government-issued cheese, and dry cereals and oats packaged in white cardboard boxes with black block lettering. Luckily, we also had the birds we hunted, beef from the ranch and eggs from the chickens my grandmother raised. As members of the Oglala Lakota Oyate, part of the Great Sioux Nation, we took part in many celebrations and gatherings like powwows,sun dances, birthdays, weddings, naming ceremonies and cattle brandings, and our moms,aunts and female cousins cooked up contemporary and traditional dishes,like taniga, the Lakota intestine soup with timpsula.
