    welcome to Indian Country Take a moment, and look up from where you are right now. If you are gazing across the waters of Puget Sound, realize that Indian peoples thrived all along her shoreline in intimate balance with the natural world, long before Europeans arrived here. If Mount Rainier stands in your view, realize that Indian peoples named it “Tahoma,” long before it was “discovered” by white explorers. Every mountain that you see on the horizon, every stand of forest, every lake and river, every desert vista in eastern Washington, all of these beautiful places are part of our Indian heritage, and carry the songs of our ancestors in the wind. As we have always known, all of Washington State is Indian Country. To get a sense of our connection to these lands, you need only to look at a map of Washington. Over 75 rivers, 13 counties, and hundreds of cities and towns all bear traditional Indian names – Seattle, Tacoma, Yakima, and Spokane among them. Indian peoples guided Lewis and Clark to the Pacifi c, and pointed them safely back to the east. Indian trails became Washington’s earliest roads. Wild salmon, delicately grilled and smoked in Alderwood, has become the hallmark of Washington State cuisine. Come visit our lands, and come learn about our cultures and our peoples. Our families continue to be intimately woven into the world around us. As Tribes, we will always fi ght for preservation of our natural resources. As Tribes, we will always hold our elders and our ancestors in respect. As Tribes, we will always protect our treaty rights and sovereignty, because these are rights preserved, at great sacrifi ce, ABOUT ATNI/EDC by our ancestors.

    © Copyright 2016 William Gregory Guedel Sovereignty, Political Economy, and Economic Development in Native American Nations William Gregory Guedel A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2016 Reading Committee: José Antonio Lucero, Chair Saadia Pekkanen Glennys Young Program Authorized to Offer Degree: The Henry M. Jackson School of International Studies University of Washington Abstract Sovereignty, Political Economy, and Economic Development in Native American Nations William Gregory Guedel Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Associate Professor José Antonio Lucero The Henry M. Jackson School of International Studies The severe and chronic lag in the empirical indicators for Native American socio-economic development has created, in the words of President Obama, “a moral call to action.” Although collective statistics indicate substantial development problems among the 566 federally recognized tribes, these empirical indicators do not manifest uniformly across all Native American nations. This prompts a basic but crucial question: Why are some Native American nations developing more successfully than others? This dissertation examines the theoretical basis and practical applications of tribal sovereignty and presents a new methodology for analyzing the development conditions within Native American nations, utilizing a qualitative assessment of the relative state of a tribe’s formal institutional development and informal institutional dynamics. These foundational elements of the tribal political economy—rather than any specific economic activities—are the prime determinants of a tribe’s development potential. Tribal governments that emphasize the advancement of their institutional structures and the strengthening of citizen cooperation within their communities are more likely to achieve their self-directed development goals, and this paper provides specific examples and recommendations for enhancing sustainable economic development within a tribal political economy.

  • King County and Western Washington Cultural Geography, Communities, Their History and Traditions - Unit Plan
    Northwest Heritage Resources King County and Western Washington Cultural Geography, Communities, Their History and Traditions - Unit Plan Enduring Cultures Unit Overview: Students research the cultural geographies of Native Americans living in King County and the Puget Sound region of Washington (Puget Salish), then compare/contrast the challenges and cultures of Native American groups in King County and Puget Sound to those of Asian immigrant groups in the same region. Used to its fullest, this unit will take nine to ten weeks to complete. Teachers may also elect to condense/summarize some of the materials and activities in the first section (teacher-chosen document-based exploration of Native American cultures) in order to focus on the student-directed research component. List of individual lesson plans: Session # Activity/theme 1 Students create fictional Native American families, circa 1820-1840, of NW coastal peoples. 2* Students introduce the characters, develop their biographies as members of specific tribes (chosen from those in the Northwest Heritage Resources website searchable database) 3* The fictional characters will practice a traditional art. Research NWHR database to browse possibilities, select one. Each student will learn something about the specific form s/he chose for his/her characters. Students will also glean from actual traditional artists' biographies what sorts of challenges the artists have faced and what sorts of goals they have that are related to their cultural traditions and communities. 4* Cultural art forms: Students deepen their knowledge of one or more art forms. 5 Teacher creates basic frieze: large map of Oregon territory and Canadian islands/ coastal region.

Stevens dispatched Simmons, Shaw, Cushman, Cock and Ford to assemble the remaining tribes of the Nisqually Nation at Point Elliott for a second council.). This was assembled on January 12th and continued until the 21st. No special difficulty was encountered in the negotiations, but nearly 2,300 Indians were present, and many speeches were made. The governor first explained the purpose of the council as before, and was followed by Colonel Simmons, who spoke the Chinook Jargon, a language which they nearly all understood, and by Secretary Mason. The Indians then sang a mass, after the Catholic form, and recited a prayer, after which the treaty was read and interpreted sentence by sentence by Colonel Shaw.

  • Pacific Northwestern Native American Tribes and Their Connections to Local Animals
    Pacific Northwest Native American Tribes and Connections to Local Animals 1 Pacific Northwestern Native American Tribes and Their Connections to Local Animals Emily M. Compton, Jane Wilson Nikola Tesla STEM High School, 4301 228th Ave NE, Redmond, WA 98053 Pacific Northwest Native American Tribes and Connections to Local Animals 2 Abstract For this project, the focus was on the changing relationships between people in the local tribes and the animals that shape and influence their lives. In researching this topic, we found that the geographical location of the tribes did not affect the use of the animals as much as the traditions behind the animals specific to each tribe, and many tribes had very similar traditions and uses for animals across the Pacific Northwest. While animals like salmon, deer and elk are all for consumption and multi-use, other animals, such as the wooly dog, were raised as a pet. Some of these animals are still common today, others are rarer or even endangered, post contact with European settlers. This project hopes to inform the general public about these connections and show that many of these traditions continue even today. To make accessible to the greatest number of people possible, this paper will be adapted into a poster to be hung in a community area, with maps, photos and information to reach all age ranges. Background During the last major ice age, that ended about 12,000 years ago, peoples from Asia migrated over the land bridge and into north America. These people moved all across the continent, some going as far as Mexico and central America and some staying in Alaska and northern Canada.
