Schlosser, Ph.D. Kamiak Ridge, LLC 1525 NW Kenny Dr. Pullman WA 99163 www.Resource-Analysis.com This planning effort has been completed with the consultation by a Planning Committee comprised of representatives of administrative Divisions from the Quinault Indian Nation, representatives from adjacent government agencies such as the US Forest Service, Washington Department of Transportation & Department of Natural Resources, Grays Harbor County, fire protection districts, and planning consultants from Kamiak Ridge, LLC. Epigraph “What we do to the land, we do to ourselves.” Joe DeLaCruz, President, Quinault Indian Nation (Storm 1990) "The … red man in his great contest with nature has learned Not to combat nature, but to observe her moods and to prepare a simple means of escape." Frederic Remington, 1889 “Theres No Justice, Just Us.” Taholah Graffiti 2010 The quotation, photographed in Taholah and presented above, attracted attention not just by its immediate message contained in the word ‘justice’: “fair treatment and due rewards in accordance with honor, standards, and law”. The play of the words in this quotation seems to be obvious: 'justice' in the sense of 'just is' as in a juxtaposition to 'just us'. In this case it adds a semantic accent to 'just us', implying 'us' being an ultimate authority in deciding our own fate. Chapter 0. Table of Contents Chapter 0.

  • Lands of the Lakota: Policy, Culture and Land Use on the Pine Ridge
    1 Lands of the Lakota: Policy, Culture and Land Use on the Pine Ridge Reservation Joseph Stromberg Senior Honors Thesis Environmental Studies and Anthropology Washington University in St. Louis 2 Abstract Land is invested with tremendous historical and cultural significance for the Oglala Lakota Nation of the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. Widespread alienation from direct land use among tribal members also makes land a key element in exploring the roots of present-day problems—over two thirds of the reservation’s agricultural income goes to non-Natives, while the majority of households live below the poverty line. In order to understand how current patterns in land use are linked with federal policy and tribal culture, this study draws on three sources: (1) archival research on tribal history, especially in terms of territory loss, political transformation, ethnic division, economic coercion, and land use; (2) an account of contemporary problems on the reservation, with an analysis of current land policy and use pattern; and (3) primary qualitative ethnographic research conducted on the reservation with tribal members. Findings indicate that federal land policies act to effectively block direct land use. Tribal members have responded to policy in ways relative to the expression of cultural values, and the intent of policy has been undermined by a failure to fully understand the cultural context of the reservation. The discussion interprets land use through the themes of policy obstacles, forced incorporation into the world-system, and resistance via cultural sovereignty over land use decisions. Acknowledgements I would like to sincerely thank the Buder Center for American Indian Studies of the George Warren Brown School of Social Work as well as the Environmental Studies Program, for support in conducting research.

  • 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.

Weather forecasts cover perhaps two weeks, and if extending into a season, a few months, or even a few years, but climate is weather over decades or even centuries. The National Academies of Sciences put on a slide show about this in March of 2016, in anticipation of their book to be published later this year entitled Next Generation Earth System Prediction. Researchers want to extend weather forecasting capacity, based on modeling, using vast accumulations of prior data, because weather affects so many aspects of our economy. So when we have a summer of unusual drought or a year of constant rain that extends all summer long, it is premature to call this climate change. But when we measure increases of global temperature averages over decades, or see planet‐wide loss of continental ice over decades, we can make statements about climate.

The Treaty of Neah Bay secured to the Makah Indian Tribe the “right of taking fish and of whaling or sealing at usual and accustomed grounds and stations.” The Treaty of Olympia secured to the Quileute Indian Tribe and Quinault Indian Nation, the southern neighbors of Makah along the Washington coast, the “right of taking fish at all usual and accustomed grounds and stations.” Unlike the Treaty of Neah Bay, the Treaty of Olympia expressed only a “right of taking fish”; it did not reference “whaling or sealing.” In this case, the Ninth Circuit held the “right of taking fish” in the Treaty of Olympia includes a right of whaling and sealing. Then, the Ninth Circuit held Quileute and Quinault’s “usual and accustomed” fishing grounds under the treaty extend beyond the areas in which the Tribes customarily fished to areas in which they hunted “‘marine mammals—including whales and fur seals.’” App.

  • Where the Salmon Run: the Life and Legacy of Billy Frank Jr
    LEGACY PROJECT A century-old feud over tribal fishing ignited brawls along Northwest rivers in the 1960s. Roughed up, belittled, and handcuffed on the banks of the Nisqually River, Billy Frank Jr. emerged as one of the most influential Indians in modern history. Inspired by his father and his heritage, the elder united rivals and survived personal trials in his long career to protect salmon and restore the environment.
