A Political Ecology of Healing 1 Elisabeth Middleton University of California, Davis, USA. The concept of historical unresolved grief has powerful implications not only for healing from our past, but for giving us the strength and commitment to save ourselves and future generations. Maria Yellow Horse Brave Heart and Lemrya DeBruyn2 1. Introduction On June 29, 2004, the Pacific and Watershed Lands Stewardship Council convened a public meeting in Chester, California, in the northeastern Sierra Nevada mountains. The Board members and staff introduced the Council's purpose—to oversee the planning and divestiture of approximately 140,000 acres (56,656 ha.) of former Pacific Gas & Electric Company land around California—and then opened the floor to public comments and suggestions. One after another, representatives from Mountain Maidu groups including the Honey Lake Maidu, the Roundhouse Council Indian Education Center, and the Maidu Cultural and Development Group, and their allies, stood up and requested the formal inclusion of a Native American representative on the Stewardship Council Board. All of the lands to be divested, and, particularly for Maidu participants, much of the 53,185 acres (21,523 ha.) within the Feather River Planning Unit lie within the Mountain Maidu homeland. To not have an official representative of Native American interests on the Board to oversee the planning efforts for these lands seemed to indicate a blatant disregard for the historical and contemporary Native presence. In his 1998 review of political ecology, -

Of the many linguistic families in California most are con- fined to single areas, but the large Moquelumnan or Miwok family is one of the few exceptions, in that the people speaking its various dialects occupy three distinct areas. These three areas, while actually quite near together, are at considerable distances from one another as compared with the areas occupied by any of the other linguistic families that are separated. The northern of the three Miwok areas, which may for con- venience be called the Northern Coast or Lake area, is situated in the southern extremity of Lake county and just touches, at its northern boundary, the southernmost end of Clear lake.

The Compact authorizes the Tribe to operate a maximum of 2,000 slot machines at no more than two gaming facilities and engage in Class III gaming only on eligible Indian lands held in trust for the Tribe, located within the boundaries of the Tribe’s reservation. The Tribe has agreed to pay the State its pro rata share of costs the State incurs for the performance of its duties under the Compact. The Compact does not require the Tribe to pay into either the Revenue Sharing Trust Fund (RSTF) or the Tribal Nations Grant Fund (TNGF) if the Tribe operates no more than 1,200 slot machines. If the Tribe operates more than 1,200 slot machines, the Tribe shall pay 6% into the RSTF or the TNGF of its “Net Win” from the operation of slot machines in excess of 350 slot machines. The Compact allows the Tribe to take annual credits of up to 70% for in-kind contributions made to Del Norte County (County), local jurisdictions, and non-profit and civic organizations operating facilities or providing services within the County for improved fire, emergency medical services, law enforcement, public transit, education, tourism, health care, transit, road improvements, and other specified payments. -

Plants Used in Basketry by the California Indians
PLANTS USED IN BASKETRY BY THE CALIFORNIA INDIANS BY RUTH EARL MERRILL PLANTS USED IN BASKETRY BY THE CALIFORNIA INDIANS RUTH EARL MERRILL INTRODUCTION In undertaking, as a study in economic botany, a tabulation of all the plants used by the California Indians, I found it advisable to limit myself, for the time being, to a particular form of use of plants. Basketry was chosen on account of the availability of material in the University's Anthropological Museum. Appreciation is due the mem- bers of the departments of Botany and Anthropology for criticism and suggestions, especially to Drs. H. M. Hall and A. L. Kroeber, under whose direction the study was carried out; to Miss Harriet A. Walker of the University Herbarium, and Mr. E. W. Gifford, Asso- ciate Curator of the Museum of Anthropology, without whose interest and cooperation the identification of baskets and basketry materials would have been impossible; and to Dr. H. I. Priestley, of the Ban- croft Library, whose translation of Pedro Fages' Voyages greatly facilitated literary research. Purpose of the sttudy.-There is perhaps no phase of American Indian culture which is better known, at least outside strictly anthro- pological circles, than basketry. Indian baskets are not only concrete, durable, and easily handled, but also beautiful, and may serve a variety of purposes beyond mere ornament in the civilized household. Hence they are to be found in. our homes as well as our museums, and much has been written about the art from both the scientific and the popular standpoints. To these statements, California, where American basketry. -
