From the Chairman CEO, 2 DV Program To Stay .com up to date online at www.kawnation The Newsletter of Kaw Nation Kaw City, Oklahoma, Headquarters Vol. 5, No. 3 Autumn 2011 For those who have not had the opportunity to visit Council Grove, Kan., we encourage you and your family to make the trip. Council Grove is located in Morris County and is nestled in the heart of the Flint Hills, in east-central Kansas. Like the set- tlers who founded Council Grove, and all those who came before them, native and visitors alike are awed by the serene beauty of the rolling hills and tranquil waters that are found here. Tradesmen traveled the Santa Fe Trail through Kansa Indian Territory, Morris County and Council Grove, and have re- mained a constant reminder of these historical sites located within the Flint Hills. This year the state of Kansas celebrates 150 Luther Pepper receives a proclamation years of statehood. award from Fay Laughridge. Details, page 2. From June 13-19, the streets of Council Grove were filled with vendors and activities for every age group. However, this particu- lar story starts on June 18.

Kaw elder Luther Pepper was honored by riding in this beautiful red Mercedes-Benz con- vertible.

  • A Message from the Principal Chief David W. Hill
    A Message from the Principal Chief David W. Hill Hesci! As Principal Chief I am humbled and honored to establish the Mvskoke Reservation Protection Commission. This Commission is tasked to comprehensively undertake research, analysis and fact- finding to determine what actions and changes are necessary to develop new economic development, public safety, and social services policies that ensure a better future for tribal members and our neighbors as a result of the Supreme Court’s affirmation of our jurisdictional sovereignty over Mvskoke lands. The individuals on our Commission have been selected for their knowledge, education and experience in many specific areas that our historic victory concerns. As Muscogee (Creek) citizens, we are all heirs to a legacy of survival, perseverance and strength. Our ancestors dreamed that one day, we might find ourselves where we are right now. We have assembled the best and the brightest of us, from coast-to-coast all across the country to rise and meet this moment. No matter where you are if you are a citizen of this Nation, the Mvskoke Reservation is your home. And it’s up to each of us to protect it. The victory in the Supreme Court and the affirmation of our sovereignty was historic and will always be a day we fittingly celebrate. But, it’s the work we do now and moving forward that will ultimately stand the test of time and lead us to full victory. We have to work together to educate our neighbors that this decision is about clarity, not chaos. The opportunity in front of us to thrive is far greater than our Nation or the state of Oklahoma has ever seen.

Dozens of people gathered by the statue on the grounds outside the Capitol before pulling it down. American Indian Movement activist Mike Forcia talked to a State Patrol captain sent to the scene to encourage protesters to follow a legal process for removing the statue, which has stood on the Capitol grounds since 1931. Forcia said they had tried that route many times and it had not worked. The protesters then looped a rope around the statue and quickly pulled it off the stone pedestal and to the ground. The patrol officer watched from a distance as protesters sang and took photos with the statue for about half an hour. State officials said they had been warned about the action via social media. It was mentioned at a news conference an hour and a half earlier with Gov. Tim Walz. Public Safety Commissioner John Harrington said then that the patrol would meet the protesters and seek an alternative resolution. Columbus, a 15th-century Genoese explorer, has long been a target of activists for his role in colonizing, killing and exploiting indigenous people.
