  • Bishop Paiute Tribal Council Sign Unprecedented Agreement with California Department of Fish and Wildlife
    Bishop Paiute Tribal Council Sign Unprecedented Agreement with California Department of Fish and Wildlife Left to right: Allen Summers Sr., (Chairman); Stafford Lehr (Deputy Director of Department of Fish and Wildlife Division) Bishop, CA. January 21, 2020: The Bishop Paiute Tribal Council signed a historic Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW). This MOA reflects the understanding that the Bishop Paiute Tribe and CDFW exercise their own unique authorities to protect wildlife resources. CDFW recog- nized that this government-to-government agreement is a productive and efficient way to honor the Tribe’s effort to preserve its culture and well-being through the Tribe’s tradition of hunting mule deer (genus Odocoileus). Mutually respectful discussion and negotiations by both entities has determined the final outcome of this MOA. Chairman Allen Summers proudly stated, “This is one of the biggest achievements the Tribe has ever accom- plished. CDFW is one of the first state agencies to acknowledge the Tribe’s testimony of why this MOA is crucial for the health of our Tribal community. The purpose of this agreement will ensure that the Tribe’s cultural values will be sustained for future generations.” The MOA identifies the process for the Tribe to take up to 16 deer per year for cultural education purposes; twelve of these deer are designated for individual take and four can be harvested outside of the typical hunt season to further cultural education (CE). CE harvests will be preserved and utilized at culturally significant events. Most takes will be collected during the regular hunt season in areas: D7, D8, X9a, X9b, X9c, X10, and X12.

  • Indigenous Language Preservation Programs and Language Policy in Education: a Web-Based Intertextual Analysis
    AN ABSTRACT FOR THE DISSERTATION OF Gloria J. Bock Muñiz for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Education presented on June 8, 2007. Title: Indigenous Language Preservation Programs and Language Policy in Education: A Web-Based Intertextual Analysis. Abstract Approved: _________________________________________ LeoNora M. Cohen There are more than 6,900 known living languages in the world, half of which could be extinct within one hundred years. Approximately 150 indigenous American languages are still spoken in the United States; however, it is estimated that by the year 2050 only twenty of them will remain. Language preservation programs are a part of the struggle for the cultural and economic self-determination of indigenous peoples. These programs often operate within public school systems governed by laws and policies that are linked both with the goals of economic globalization and with basic human rights. This study explored the congruity of these policies, and their impact on indigenous language preservation programs. Its purpose was to provide information that can be used for planning and advocacy for indigenous language preservation programs that reflect the interests and values of indigenous cultural and linguistic communities. The research question addressed by this study was, In what ways do educational standards impact indigenous language preservation efforts? During the process of determining the impact of state policies and standards on language preservation program implementation, the context for the programs and the
