  • About First Nation Autonomy & Anishinabek Unity
    Anishinaabe Governance is... ABOUT FIRST NATION AUTONOMY & ANISHINABEK UNITY First Nation Autonomy - First Nation autonomy while working together in unity as the Anishinabek, an Indigenous Nation of People, has always been the basis of both the proposed Governance Agreement and the ratified Anishinabek Nation Education Agreement. Autonomy and unity were stated often by approximately 4,000 First Nation citizens who participated each year in the Nation Building and Restoration of Jurisdiction consultation processes from 1995 to now. These processes were facilitated by the Union of Ontario Indians under the direction of the Anishinabek Grand Council. There have been many Grand Council Resolutions providing direction by First Nation Chiefs over the years on the education and governance initiatives. The Anishinabek Grand Council – The Anishinabek Grand Council has its roots in the Ojibway (Chippewas), Odawa and Potawatomi Nations which formed the Confederacy of the Three Fires of peoples who shared similar languages and territories and who met together for military and political purposes. By the mid 1700s, the Council of Three Fires became the core of the Great Lakes Confederacy. The Hurons, Algonquins, Nipissing, Sauks, Foxes, and others joined the Great Lakes Confederacy. In 1870, after Canada's creation in 1867, the Confederacy transformed to the Grand General Indian Council of Ontario and Quebec. According to the minutes of the annual meetings, much of the Grand Council's time was spent on reviewing the Indian Act. Today the Anishinabek Grand Council represents 39 First Nations and approximately 65,000 First Nation citizens. The Union of Ontario Indians - In 1949, the Union of Ontario Indians (UOI) was established to replace the Grand General Indian Council.

  • 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.

Rindfleisch Marquette University, [email protected] Published version. Encyclopedia of Milwaukee Publisher link. © 2016 Encyclopedia of Milwaukee. Used with permission. Search Site... Menu Log In or Register Native Milwaukee Click the image to learn more. The Indigenous Peoples of North America have always claimed Milwaukee as their own. Known as the “gathering place by the waters,” the “good earth” (or good land), or simply the “gathering place,” Indigenous groups such as the Potawatomi, Ojibwe, Odawa (Ottawa), Fox, Ho-Chunk, Menominee, Sauk, and Oneida have all called Milwaukee their home at some point in the last three centuries. This does not include the many other Native populations in Milwaukee today, ranging from Wisconsin groups like the Stockbridge-Munsee and Brothertown Nation, to outer-Wisconsin peoples like the Lakota and Dakota (Sioux), First Nations, Creek, Chickasaw, Sac, Meskwaki, Miami, Kickapoo, Micmac, and Cherokee, among others. According to the 2010 census, over 7,000 people in Milwaukee County identified as American Indian or Alaska Native, making Milwaukee the largest concentration of Native Peoples statewide. Milwaukee, then, is—and has always been—a Native place, home to a diverse number of Indigenous Americans. Native Milwaukee’s Creation Story is thousands of years old, when the Mound Builders civilizations, also known as the Adena, Hopewell, Woodlands, and Mississippian cultures, flourished in the Great Lakes, Ohio River Valley, and Mississippi River Valley between 500 BCE to 1200 CE (some scholars even suggest 1500 CE). It is estimated the Mound-Builder civilization spread to southeastern Wisconsin in the Early Woodland Era, sometime between 800 and 500 BCE, and flourished during the Middle Woodland Era (100 BCE to 500 CE).

  • TLLSC 340: Teaching and Learning in An
    TLLSC 340: Teaching and Learning in an Area of Specialization Sequence 6: Integrating Content, Cultures and Communities Teaching, Learning, and Leading with Schools and Communities School of Education, Loyola University Chicago Spring Semester, 2021, Online Land Acknowledgement Statement The Loyola community occupies the ancestral homelands of the people of the Council of Three Fires, an alliance which formed based on the shared language, similar culture, and common historical background of its three historical members: the Odawa, Potawatomi, and Ojibwe nations. The landthat Loyola occupies, which includes the shore and waters of Lake Michigan, was also a site of trade, travel, gathering and healing for more than a dozen other Native tribes, including the Menominee, Michigamea, Miami, Kickapoo, Peoria and Ho-Chunk nations. The history of the city of Chicago is intertwined with histories of native peoples. The name Chicago is adopted from the Algonquin language, and the Chicagoland area is still home to the largest number of Native Americans in the Midwest, over 65,000. This historical relationship is not innocuous. The 1833 Treaty of Chicago forced the migration of the Odawa, Potawatomi and Ojibwe to drastically smaller lands west of the Mississippi River. Chicago was also the destination, more than a century later, for coerced relocation of Native peoples under the Indian Relocation Act of 1956, which resulted in widespread disenfranchisement, poverty and isolation for the Native people relocated to Chicago and other urban centers. The history of the lands Loyola occupies, and the history of Native Americans in Chicago and Illinois, is a history of displacement, conquest, and dehumanization.

    Indigenizing Water Governance within Treaty Lands and Territory: Development of Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation Water Framework by Reneé Joy Goretsky A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Rural Studies Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Reneé Goretsky, May, 2021 ABSTRACT INDIGENIZING WATER GOVERNANCE WITHIN TREATY LANDS AND TERRITORY: DEVELOPMENT OF MISSISSAUGAS OF THE CREDIT FIRST NATION WATER FRAMEWORK Reneé Goretsky Advisors: University of Guelph, 2021 Dr. Sheri Longboat Dr. Kim Anderson Professor John FitzGibbon This research asked ‘how can water governance be Indigenized within a social justice framework’?’ in response to Canadian water governance injustices for Indigenous peoples. It applied this question to the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation’s (MCFN) need for developing a water framework to Indigenize water governance within its treaty lands and territory, as a partial resolution to its 2016 Water Claim (Aboriginal Title Claim to Waters within the Traditional Lands of the Mississaugas of the New Credit). Through an emergent MCFN context-specific research methodology adapted from Kovach’s Indigenous research framework, this research explored MCFN’s water values and how they related to MCFN’s Water Claim to develop a water framework; and it aimed to decolonize constructs of social justice and western water governance. Using qualitative community-based participatory research methods, the key findings, underpinned by a literature-based conceptual

  • ABSTRACT an EXPLORATION of the RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN FAITH, SPIRITUALITY and WELLNESS AMONGST the ANISHINABEK by Roger A. Boyer I
    ABSTRACT AN EXPLORATION OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN FAITH, SPIRITUALITY AND WELLNESS AMONGST THE ANISHINABEK by Roger A. Boyer II The purpose of this quantitative and qualitative phenomenological study is to explore the relationship between faith, spirituality and wellness amongst Anishinabek; to better understand the factors experienced or expressed through the ritual process. Through the administration of the MacDonald’s Expressions of Spiritual Inventory- Revised (ESI-R) and a semi-structure (SS) questionnaire, an examination of the following two questions: how do Anishinabek along the North Shore perceive and explain their experience of the relationship between faith, spirituality and wellness and how are these relationships incorporated in ritual? In this study, ninety-five (n=95) Anishinabek participated in the ESI-R survey. Out of these ninety-five (n=95), fourteen (n=14) fulfilled a criteria for SS interviewing where indigenous conversation protocols were observed to both preserve data collection and the purpose of the study. The researcher presents spirituality as a unique doorway to interact with faith, spirituality and wellness. In the ritual process towards mino-biimaadziwin, Anishinabek encounter expressions of liminal experiences (ritual elements) of connectedness, trauma and integration with their faith and spirituality through ceremony which impact their wellness in a limited manner. The ritual process for Anishinabek is experienced from an initial balanced state to entering into a liminal unbalance state and then re-emerges into an elevated balanced state. Interdependence and inner convergence are expressions of this unique balanced state. DISSERTATION APPROVAL SHEET “An EXPORATION OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN FAITH, SPIRITUALITY AND WELLNESS amongst Anishinabek” written by Roger Arnold Boyer II submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Intercultural Studies has been read and approved by the undersigned members of the Faculty of Asbury Theological Seminary Dr.

  • The Views Expressed in This Report Are Those of the Author and Are Not Necessarily Those of the Ministry of the Solicitor General of Canada
    CONQUEST BY LAW APC 8 CA (1994) by Christie Jefferson The views expressed in this report are those of the author and are not necessarily those of the Ministry of the Solicitor General of Canada. To Bill and Flora, Bruce and Jennifer for their encouragement, support and patience ______________________ FORWARD The Aboriginal Corrections Unit of the Ministry of the Solicitor General is very pleased to have the opportunity to publish "Conquest by Law" by Ms. Christie Jefferson. This document, which was originally written in 1978, is one of the most comprehensive reports to deal with traditional forms of justice among Aboriginal Peoples across Canada and the impact western settlement had on those systems. It was decided to leave the report as it was originally drafted, ending its story in 1979, for two reasons. First, it was felt that the period between the end of this report and the present deserves, and has received, its own documentation given the rapid advancement Aboriginal Peoples have made in the area of justice and Aboriginal-Government relations. Second, the period in which this report was written, the late 1970's, was a period of history that had a distinct perspective and way of approaching issues. It was felt that by updating this report it would lose some of that flavour. I hope you will enjoy reading "Conquest by Law" and you will wonder, as other readers have in the past, why it has taken so long for this report to see the light of day. Ed Buller Chief, Aboriginal Corrections July 1994 INTRODUCTION This Manuscript is fifteen years old.
