Unofficial Transcript, Human Rights Commission Meeting, April 12, 2021, 5:30 P.M. 450-459 003 Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians Tribal Chairman Richard Milanovich - Speaks Truth to Power In under 200 words, Richard Milanovich, the 28-year chairman of the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians outlines what occurred in the 1960s after the Equalization Act was passed in 1959 which ordered reservation land to be divided equally among individual tribal members. The Indian Leasing Act, signed into law on the same day, permitted tribal members to lease their land in ninety-nine year increments. Together the Equalization Act and the Indian Leasing Act greatly enhanced the commercial value of the Indian lands, particularly Section 14, making these properties attractive to real estate interests.1 Milanovich shared his truth in an interview eight months prior to his death on March 11, 2012. In His Own Words - Tribal Chairman Richard Milanovich “Then came the ‘60s Judge (Hilton) McCabe, together with some individuals in Palm Springs, felt they hit a gold mine by coming up with the scheme to, how do I put it, separate the property from the members. So they formed the conservatorship program - they deemed all the tribal members incapable of managing their own affairs. So they named individuals and entities to serve for their benefit (and manage) their estates. They appointed individuals: (The late Palm Springs Mayor) Frank Bogert was a conservator. James Holloway was an attorney. Bank of America was my conservator. Maybe two or three didn’t have conservators. Everyone else more or less did…. They would do work for the member, but when they submitted their invoice….. The member didn’t (always) have the resources to pay. So what did they do? They applied to the court, Judge McCabe’s court, and said I did this work, and I’m not getting paid, so the judge ordered that a portion of the allotments be sold off to pay for the services that had been done.

California Curriculum Content Standard, History/Social Science, 11th Grade: 11.10.2 — Examine and analyze the key events, policies, and court cases in the evolution of civil rights, including Dred Scott v.

Bakke, and California Proposition 209. 11.10.4 — Examine the roles of civil rights advocates (e.g., A. Philip Randolph, Martin Luther King, Jr., Malcolm X, Thurgood Marshall, James Farmer, Rosa Parks), including the significance of Martin Luther King, Jr. ‘s “Letter from Birmingham Jail” and “I Have a Dream” speech. 3 2. CENTRAL HISTORICAL QUESTION: Considering issues of race, housing, and the struggle for civil rights in post-World War II Los Angeles, how valid is the statement from some in the African American community looking back: “We got what we wanted, but we lost what we had”? Before WWII: • 1940s and 1950s - Segregation in housing. • Shelley v. Kraemer, 1948 and Barrows vs. Jackson, 1953 – U.S. Supreme Court decisions abolish. • Map activities - Internet-based research on the geographic and demographic movements of the African American community in Los Angeles. • Locating homes of prominent African Americans. • Shift of African Americans away from central city to middle-class communities outside of the ghetto, resulting in a poorer and more segregated central city.

  • Japanese Americans and the Origins of Strict Scrutiny
    05_ROBINSON_FIXED PROOFS.DOC 11/22/2005 11:32 AM KOREMATSU AND BEYOND: JAPANESE AMERICANS AND THE ORIGINS OF STRICT SCRUTINY GREG ROBINSON AND TONI ROBINSON* I INTRODUCTION The story of the United States Supreme Court’s epochal 1954 ruling in Brown v. Board of Education1 and the legal struggle for civil rights led by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) dur- ing the decade following World War II occupies a central place in many Ameri- cans’ understanding both of the history of democracy in the United States and of the African American experience. Under the direction of Chief Counsel Thurgood Marshall, the NAACP’s Legal Defense and Education Fund and al- lied attorneys brought a series of civil rights cases before the U.S. Supreme Court. Its campaign culminated triumphantly in Brown and its companion case Bolling v. Sharpe,2 in which the Court struck down school segregation. It was in the Bolling case that the Court clearly and definitively established its doctrine of “strict scrutiny.” According to this doctrine, race was a “suspect classification” under the Constitution, meaning that the Court would subject any action by the government that involved a racial classification to a searching examination, rather than assume its constitutionality, and that it would hold the action to be unconstitutional unless it served a compelling state interest and was narrowly tailored to meet that interest. The Court’s doctrine of strict scrutiny removed the constitutional underpinnings of Jim Crow and thus paved the way for its subsequent civil rights decisions during the 1960s.

  • MATERIALISM and POLITICS Cultural Inquiry EDITED by CHRISTOPH F
    MATERIALISM AND POLITICS Cultural Inquiry EDITED BY CHRISTOPH F. E. HOLZHEY AND MANUELE GRAGNOLATI The series ‘Cultural Inquiry’ is dedicated to exploring how diverse cultures can be brought into fruitful rather than pernicious confrontation. Taking culture in a deliberately broad sense that also includes different discourses and disciplines, it aims to open up spaces of inquiry, experimentation, and intervention. Its emphasis lies in critical reflection and in identifying and highlighting contemporary issues and concerns, even in publications with a historical orientation. Following a decidedly cross-disciplinary approach, it seeks to enact and provoke transfers among the humanities, the natural and social sciences, and the arts. The series includes a plurality of methodologies and approaches, binding them through the tension of mutual confrontation and negotiation rather than through homogenization or exclusion. Christoph F. E. Holzhey is the Founding Director of the ICI Berlin Institute for Cultural Inquiry. Manuele Gragnolati is Professor of Italian Literature at the Sorbonne Université in Paris and Associate Director of the ICI Berlin.
