  • 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.

  • They Would Not Be Moved : the Chippewa Treaty of 1854 / Edmund
    N AUGUST, 1854, Commissioner of Indian Affairs George W. Manypenny directed Agent Henry C. Gil­ bert of Detroit to arrange a treaty council with the Chippewa Indians to extinguish their titles to certain lands at the head of Lake Superior. The agent was also to establish reservations as future homes for the Lake Superior bands living along the shores of Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. ^ THEY Gilbert, head of the Mackinac Agency which embraced afi the Indians in Michigan as wefi as the Lake Superior Chippewa, dispatched a special messenger by way of Chicago and St. Paul WOULD to his Minnesota counterpart, Agent David B. Herriman, at Crow Wing. Gilbert asked Herriman to bring to the council ground a delegation of Mississippi River Chippewa chiefs and headmen who also claimed ownership of the lands in question. The Mack­ NOT inac agent left Detroit on August 26 and arrived at La Pointe, Wisconsin, on September 1. Herriman joined him about two weeks later.- BE The tiny vifiage of La Pointe on Madeline Island, offshore from Bayfield, Wisconsin, was an appropriate setting for treaty talks. La Pointe had been a focal point for white settlement on Lake Superior since the zestful days of French fur traders and MOVED missionaries. Thirteen miles long and averaging three miles wide, Madeline is the largest of the Apostle Island chain. Set against clear blue waters and skies, its rugged beauty com­ «e?> mands admiration. Red and brown sandstone shores loom wild and bold, while pleasant hills and stately elms, pines, and cedars exude cool serenity. Before the founding of Superior, Wisconsin, and Duluth in 1853 and 1854, bustling little La Pointe, located on Madeline's southwestern tip, had been the only port of call The Chippewa on western Lake Superior.

  • Tribal Nations Issues and Perspectives
    GREAT LAKES REGIONAL COLLABORATION Tribal Nations Issues and Perspectives Version 1.0 April 26, 2005 The purpose of this document is to provide the GLRC Executive Committee and Strategy Teams with information on the nature of Tribal sovereignty, rights, and interests as they relate to Great Lakes environmental protection and natural resource conservation issues. The Framework document signed by the members of the GLRC noted that each Strategy Team should explicitly consider Tribal rights, interests, structure, and programs involved in its issue area and should identify priorities and strategies that relate to the health, welfare, and culture of Tribal communities. The Tribal Nations that signed the Framework have agreed to organize an ad hoc Tribal Caucus for the purposes of facilitating intertribal cooperation and coordinated participation in the GLRC processes. The Caucus prepared this document to help other GLRC participants better understand tribal governments and tribal communities so that the Great Lakes Protection and Restoration Strategy properly addresses and protects tribal needs. It is important to note that this report is not exhaustive in its scope or coverage, “legally” definitive, or representative of the “official” views any one Tribal Nation or tribal government. As this document is relatively general in nature, the Tribal Caucus welcomes inquiries from the Executive Committee and Strategy Teams regarding further details, supporting documentation, clarification, or additional resources and information. The Tribal Caucus anticipates an on-going dialogue on tribal issues and perspectives at all levels of the GLRC process. It hopes questions will be routinely addressed within the Strategy Teams themselves by individuals associated with Tribal Nations who are members of each Team, as well as by those who regularly are involved at the Executive Committee level.

  • Salvage Tourism in American Indian Historical Pageantry A
    “We All Have a Part to Play”: Salvage Tourism in American Indian Historical Pageantry A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY KATRINA MARGARET-MARIE WILBER PHILLIPS IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Adviser: JEAN O’BRIEN MAY 2015 Acknowledgements I am, like my father, often stubborn and independent. However, as I have been reminded time and time again throughout this humbling and gratifying journey, I just can’t do it alone. First and foremost, there is my adviser, Jeani O’Brien, who has read every single word I have ever written – many of them multiple times over. I am eternally grateful for the ways in which she has motivated me, encouraged me, and guided me throughout my graduate school career. I can never repay her for the time she has dedicated to me, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. David Chang has pushed me to challenge myself and expand my horizons, which has made me a better scholar. I thank David as well as Kat Hayes for serving as my reviewers, and their feedback was instrumental in shaping this final product. Kevin Murphy and Brenda Child have also kindly served on my committees, and I truly appreciate their time and insight. Barbara Welke’s comments during my preliminary exams urged me to look beyond the scope of my initial research. Any errors in the final product, though, are mine and mine alone. The American Indian and Indigenous Studies Workshop has been my academic home since my first year of graduate school – and special thanks to Boyd Cothran, who helped me with my senior undergraduate thesis and my graduate school applications.
