Garland's interest in, the Indian, was only one strand in the rich weave of a dynamic, enthusi­ astic personality, but his work with this material reveals the man and also his eventual mastery of a clear, effortless narrative. prose style, the style of his better known "Border" series.'

The sympathetic attitude toward the red man which Garland dis­ plays in his Indian stories is curious even at first glance because it is not what one expects to find in a man who prided himself as being the son of true pioneers.

  • 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.

Plaintiffs, the Rosebud Sioux Tribe, the Oglala Sioux Tribe, and Four Directions, Inc., an organization engaged in voter registration and civic engagement in South Dakota and throughout Indian Country, bring this lawsuit for declaratory and injunctive relief to rectify Defendants’ past and ongoing violations of the “Motor Voter” and agency-based voter registration requirements of the National Voter Registration Act of 1993, 52 U.S.C. § 20501 et seq. (“NVRA”). 2. Because of these violations of the NVRA, South Dakota is depriving thousands of tribal members and other citizens of their federally guaranteed opportunities to register to vote and to change their voter registration addresses when these citizens interact with state agencies. 3. Congress passed the NVRA in 1993 in part “to establish procedures that will increase the number of eligible citizens who register to vote in elections for Federal office.” 52 U.S.C.

  • The Life & Holiness of Nicholas Black Elk, Our Brother in Jesus Christ
    The Life & Holiness of Nicholas Black Elk, Our Brother in Jesus Christ By Mark G. Thiel, Marquette University Archives, with narration by Ben Black Bear, Jr., And technological assistance by Eric Kowalik, 2015 Video: The Life and Holiness of Nicholas Black Elk, Our Brother in Jesus Christ 1. Nicholas Black Elk lived a life of holiness during the 19th and 20th centuries. He was a Lakota Sioux holy man and lay convert in South Dakota and he became widely known through the books Black Elk Speaks and Nicholas Black Elk: Medicine Man, Mystic, Missionary. Baptized “Nicholas,” after the saint whose generous giving resonated with Lakota traditions, he committed his life to better knowing the Great Spirit and teaching Jesus’ way of peace, love, and harmony towards all creation. In so doing he seamlessly lived Christian and Native ways without contradiction and led over 400 Dakota-Lakota people to baptism in Jesus Christ. 1 2. So why canonize Nicholas Black Elk and why now? By baptism, all Christians are called to become saints, and since its first days, the church has canonized outstanding Christians it identifies as intercessors of prayer and models of virtue. But north of Mexico, such efforts were delayed until 1884 when the United States bishops felt sufficiently organized. Then they nominated three 17th century candidates from New York State – Mohawk-Algonquin convert Kateri Tekakwitha and Jesuit Father Isaac Jogues, both on the left, and other Jesuit companions added later. As martyrs, the causes of the Jesuits concluded first and they were canonized in 1930. Kateri’s cause then followed and ended with her canonization in 2012.

Ryan Zinke, Secretary Attn: Tara Sweeney, Assistant Secretary U.S. Department of the Interior 1849 C St., N.W. Washington, DC 20240 Via email: [email protected] Re: Comments on Land-Into-Trust Regulations (25 C.F.R. Part 151) Dear Secretary Zinke and Assistant Secretary Sweeney: The Oglala Sioux Tribe is a Federally recognized Indian tribe, one of the constituent tribes of the Great Sioux Nation, and a signatory to the 1851 Treaty between the United States and the Sioux Nation and the 1868 Treaty between the United States and the Great Sioux Nation. The Oglala Sioux Tribe submits these comments on the BIA outreach meetings on acquisition of Indian trust land by the Secretary of the Interior: No regulatory amendments are required at the present time. The Secretary should restore authority to the BIA Regions to acquire land into trust on behalf of Indian tribes and individual Indians. The Secretary should mandate that the BIA Regional Directors prioritize and expedite the acquisition of Indian trust lands for Indian tribes and individuals to enhance restorative justice, promote Indian self-determination, support self- government, encourage economic development, and foster cultural survival and community wellness. BACKGROUND: 1851 AND 1868 TREATIES Under the 1851 and 1868 Treaties, the Great Sioux Nation reserved 21 million acres of western South Dakota from the low water mark on the east bank of the Missouri River as our “permanent home” and 44 million acres of land in Nebraska, Colorado, Wyoming, Montana and North Dakota as unceded Indian territory from among our original Lakota, Nakota, and Dakota territory.

  • What Sort of Indian Will Show the Way? Colonization, Mediation, and Interpretation in the Sun Dance Contact Zone
    WHAT SORT OF INDIAN WILL SHOW THE WAY? COLONIZATION, MEDIATION, AND INTERPRETATION IN THE SUN DANCE CONTACT ZONE DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Sandra Garner, B.A., M.A. Graduate Program in Comparative Studies The Ohio State University 2010 Dissertation Committee: Lindsay Jones, Advisor Maurice Stevens Richard Shiels Copyright by Sandra Garner 2010 ABSTRACT This research project focuses on the Sun Dance, an Indigenous ritual particularly associated with Siouan people, as a site of cultural expression where multiple, often conflicting concerns, compete for hegemonic dominance. Since European contact the Sun Dance has been variously practiced, suppressed, reclaimed, revitalized, and transformed. It has also evoked strong sentiments both from those that sought to eradicate its practices as well as those who have sought its continuance. In spite of a period of intense colonial repression, during the last three decades the Siouan form of the Sun Dance has become one of the most widely practiced religious rituals from Indigenous North America and the number of Sun Dances held and the numbers of people participating has grown significantly. How has the Sun Dance ritual endured in spite of a lengthy history of repression? What is it about the Sun Dance that evokes such powerful sentiments? And, how do we account for the growth of the Sun Dance. I argue that the current growth and practice of the Sun Dance must be considered within the context of colonialism; a central focus of this dissertation. I identify the complex and messy ways that individuals mediate the inequitable power relations that shape colonialist interactions, as well as the way they interpret these social spaces.
