Abstract This dissertation develops a concept of mnidoo-worlding, whereby consciousness emerges as a kind of possession by what is outside of ‘self’ and simultaneously by what is internal as self-possession. Weaving together phenomenology, post structural philosophy and Ojibwe Anishinaabe orally transmitted knowledges, I examine Ojibwe Anishinaabe mnidoo, or ‘other than human,’ ontologies. Mnidoo refers to energy, potency or processes that suffuse all of existence and includes humans, animals, plants, inanimate ‘objects’ and invisible and intangible forces (i.e. Thunder Beings). Such Anishinaabe philosophies engage with what I articulate as all-encompassing and interpenetrating mnidoo co-responsiveness.

  • The Final Published Version of This Article Appeared in Social Compass , Vol. 64, 3: Pp
    The final published version of this article appeared in Social Compass , vol. 64, 3: pp. 360-375 published by Sage and available here: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/0037768617713655 Visions of the great mystery: Grounding the Algonquian manitow concept Clinton N Westman University of Saskatchewan, Canada Tara L Joly University of Aberdeen, UK Abstract This article provides an overview of the Algonquian manitow concept. Manitow is often translated as spirit, god or mythical being, but reflects more complex and culturally grounded ideas about power in animist ontologies. The article suggests that manitow should be translated with care, with attention to a range of meanings. The authors refer primarily to Cree examples from Alberta, Canada, but also take a broader view to consider examples from other Algonquian contexts. Beginning with a discussion of definitions, the article then turns to the concept’s theoretical career. The article provides data on the contemporary dynamics of the manitow in the context of Cree religious pluralism, as well as on the emplacement of manitow relations through toponymy, particularly as seen around lakes named manitow sâkahikan. Keywords Algonquian, Cree, Manitow, Indigenous, North America, Religious Language Résumé Cet article présente un aperçu du concept Algonquian manitow. Ce concept est souvent traduit comme esprit, dieu ou être mythique, mais il reflète des idées plus complexes et est fondé culturellement sur la puissance des ontologies animistes. Cet article donne à penser que le terme manitow devrait être traduit avec grand soin en portant l’attention sur tout un éventail de significations. Les auteurs se réfèrent principalement aux exemples Cree de l’Alberta, au Canada, tout en prenant une perspective plus large en considérant les exemples d’autres contextes Algonquian.

Due to several factors the town of Pequaming became a "ghost town" in 1942. The factors of location, outside control, resource depletion and changing technology are examined along with alternatives at each stage of development in land use which have arisen since the town was shut down by the Ford Motor Company in a revamping of its holdings. Through several transfers of ownership the property has remained a single holding. A case study approach is used for each ownership period tracing and evaluating actual and proposed development to date. An image-plan model is used in the case study. It essentially tries to determine the plans and goals of the various owners in regard to the site initially, the resources they saw avail- able, methods used by them, and the degree of their success Joseph Lewie Lepczyk with respect to the initial plans and goals. Special atten- tion has been directed to accessing the recreational de- velopment potential of the site at this time.

  • KBIC Fish Hatchery Mission Statement the Keweenaw Bay Indian Community Is the Successor in Interest of the L'anse and Ontonago
    KBIC Fish Hatchery Mission Statement The Keweenaw Bay Indian Community is the successor in interest of the L’Anse and Ontonagon Bands of Lake Superior Chippewa Indians, signatories to the 1842 Treaty with the Chippewa (7 Stat. 591), and the 1854 Treaty with the Chippewa (10 Stat. 1109). Our Integrated Resources Management Plan (IRMP; adopted February 12, 2003) vision is to “live in harmony while enhancing and sustaining the resources of the Keweenaw Bay Indian Community for the Seventh Generation.” The Natural Resources Department administers programs for KBIC on the L'Anse, Marquette, and Ontonagon reservations as well as the western Upper Peninsula of Michigan (1842 ceded territory) to achieve this vision. Our Fisheries Program’s goal is to “Facilitate sustainable harvest of fisheries resources within Lake Superior and 1842 Ceded Territory for Tribal members”. Part of achieving this goal includes following a management plan which includes fish stocking. Additional guidance is provided for with Our Wildlife Stewardship Plan (WSP; adopted December 18, 2014). The vision is to “To support, honor, and respect mutual relationships between thriving native fish, wildlife, plant, and human communities by maintaining, enhancing, or restoring ecologically diverse networks of healthy wildlife populations and habitat.” It is stressed within this document that non-native species of plants and animals can and often do out compete native species. It identifies the following goals and objectives relevant to our proposed project and consistent with BIA goals and objectives: 1. Develop a Non-native Management Plan to establish clear goals and actions that will control the encroachment of non-native species.

  • Manitou Or Spirit Stones and Their Meanings for Native Indians Of
    Manitou or Spirit Stones, Their Meanings and Link to the Native American Cultural Landscape in North America Herman E. Bender The Hanwakan Center for Prehistoric Astronomy, Cosmology and Cultural Landscape Studies, Inc. Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, USA [email protected] © 2014 Key words. North America, American Indian, Manitou, landscape, spirit, water, trail, cairn, profile Abstract Since ancient times the Native or Indian people of North America have believed in the existence of a supernatural, omnipresent and omniscient ‘force’ or ‘presence’. All encompassing and pervasive, it is universal in scale. For many of the Native people living here, manifestations of the supernatural could be expressed by one word: Manitou. Manitou itself was seen to rest in rocks and boulders, sometimes referred to as ‘spirit’ or ‘image’ stones. They were once a common feature of the landscape. Hilltops and other significant places considered important were favored locations for the manifestation of Manitou. On the cultural landscape, the stones together with their physical setting were considered sacred. Physically, both the hills and Manitou stones were, and are, generally associated with water, e.g. springs, rapids and water falls, creeks, straits, river bends and drainage divides. Association with springs, however, seems to have been most common. There is also a definite trail or prehistoric footpath association, and the places venerated by the presence of Manitou(s) may have functioned as part of a broad ‘trail-shrine’ network, identifying ‘place’ in both a spiritual and geographic context (Bender 2007&2008a&b). Some Manitou stones and effigies can be dated back many millennia. Historically, early French explorers, Jesuit priests and the later missionaries frequently mentioned them as did Henry Rowe Schoolcraft during his travels in the upper Midwest in the early 19th century.
