    “THAT’S WHY WE ALWAYS FIGHT BACK”: STRUCTURAL VIOLENCE AND WOMEN’S RESPONSES ON A NATIVE AMERICAN RESERVATION BY REBECCA L. MORROW DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor in Philosophy in Sociology in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2019 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Assata Zerai, Chair Associate Professor Anna-Maria Marshall Associate Professor Ruby Mendenhall Professor Norman Denzin Professor Robert M. Warrior, University of Kansas ABSTRACT This project explores how women who live on a southern California reservation of the Kumeyaay Nation experience and respond to violence. Using a structural violence lens (Galtung 1969) enables a wider view of the definition of violence to include anything that limits an individual’s capabilities. Because the project used an inductive research method, the focus widened a study of intimate partner and family violence to the restrictions caused by the reservation itself, the dispute over membership and inclusion, and health issues that cause a decrease in life expectancy. From 2012 to 2018, I visited the reservation to participate in activities and interviewed 19 residents. Through my interactions, I found that women deploy resiliency strategies in support of the traditional meaning of Ipai/Tipai. This Kumeyaay word translates to “the people” to indicate that those who are participating are part of the community. By privileging the participants’ understanding of belonging, I found three levels of strategies, which I named inter-resiliency (within oneself), intra-resiliency (within the family or reservation) and inter-resiliency (within the large community of Kumeyaay or Native Americans across the country), but all levels exist within the strength gained from being part of the Ipai/Tipai.

  • The Pain Experience of Traditional Crow Indian by Norma Kay
    The pain experience of traditional Crow Indian by Norma Kay Krumwiede A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Nursing Montana State University © Copyright by Norma Kay Krumwiede (1996) Abstract: The purpose of this qualitative research study was to explore the pain experience of the traditional Crow Indian people. An understanding of the Crow people's experience of pain is crucial in order to provide quality nursing care to members of this population. As nurse researchers gain understanding of these cultural gaps and report their findings, clinically based nurses will be better equipped to serve and meet the unique needs of the traditional Crow Indian. Ethnographic interviews were conducted with 15 traditional Crow Indians currently living on the reservation in southeastern Montana. The informants identified themselves as traditional utilizing Milligan's (1981) typology. Collection of data occurred through (a) spontaneous interviews, (b) observations, (c) written stories, (d) historical landmarks, and (e) field notes. Spradley's (1979) taxonomic analysis method was used to condense the large amount of data into a taxonomy of concepts. The taxonomy of Crow pain evolved into two indigenous categories of “Good Hurt” and “Bad Hurt”. The Crow view “good hurt” as being embedded in natural life events and ceremonies, rituals and healing. The Crow experience "bad hurt” as emanating from two sources: loss and hardship. The Crow believe that every person will experience both “good hurt” and “bad hurt” sometime during their lifetime. The Crow gain knowledge, wisdom and status as they experience, live through, and learn from painful events throughout their lifetime.

CONCLUSION • • • . 73 BIBLIOGRAPHY • • • • • . 81 '. PREFACE In the bloody history of the conflict between North American Whites and Indians, California's chapter stands forth as epic in its description of the savage cruelty perpetrated against the Indian population. Referring to California, one early twentieth century historian stated, "Without an exception on the Amer~can continent there is no area in which the native population has so suddenly and generally diminished."1 It is also true that there is more written about the North American Indian than about any other aboriginal group in the world. Yet when one seeks a history of the fatal clash between the Whites and the Indians in California, one searches in vain, for accounts of this conflict are virtually non-existent. To my knowledge there are only two histories dealing with the impact of white civilization on the California Indian: Indian Wars of the Northwest by A. J. Bledsoe, a much overrated book written in 1885 which deals primarily with Humboldt and Trinity Counties, and Ishi: In 1. Warren K. Moorehead, The American Indian in the United States (Andover: The Andover Press, 1914), p. 325.

  • Life on the Pine Ridge Native American Reservation Where Life Expectancy Is the Second-Lowest in the Western Hemisphere and 80 Percent of People Are Unemployed
    Life on the Pine Ridge Native American reservation Where life expectancy is the second-lowest in the western hemisphere and 80 percent of people are unemployed. The Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota, which encompasses more than 2.8 million acres, was established in 1889. By Patrick Strickland @P_Strickland_ 1 FAST FACTS • More than 5.1 million people in the US identify as fully or partially Native American or Alaska Native • More than half do not live on reservations • In 2014, more than 52 percent of the residents of Oglala Lakota lived below the poverty line Pine Ridge Reservation, South Dakota, United States - Donald Morrison's one-room home, hidden behind a row of trees, can only be reached via a half-kilometre dirt path. He lives on his family's ancestral land. His uncle's and brother's trailer homes are nearby. Donald's yard is dotted with rusting automobiles - decaying and half-dismembered, excavated for car parts. A few metres from the wooden steps leading to his front door sits the decrepit structure - made from a pop-up trailer, scrap wood and tarps - that he lived in for two decades before the local charity Families Working Together built him a tiny home in 2011. Watch: The Fight for Native Families Donald, 60, has lived on his family's land his whole life. Time passes slowly in his corner of the Pine Ridge Reservation, and at no point in his six decades have local authorities connected his family's miniature community of shacks and trailers to the reservation's electricity grid or provided them with running water.
