Extractions: Help Search Member List Calendar Full Version: What Is An "indian"? APTN FORUMS General Discussion OPEN FORUM Jan 24 2005, 03:01 PM I am just wondering what everyone else thinks about this topic. To live in today's world is confusing enough in regard to one's identity. There are many views in this forum when it comes to how we as Indians should live our lives. To me, being Indian is not something you can give or take away. To suggest that someone who choses to live their life abiding by "rules" of society relinquish their Indian identity is absurd. What are we supposed to do? I would love to live as we lived hundreds of years ago but it is never going to happen. What is done is done and we can either chose to gripe about every wrong doing that has befelled us as a people or we could make the best of it. I think the key word here is BALANCE. Jan 24 2005, 04:40 PM QUOTE (Kiam @ Jan 24 2005, 03:54 PM) I have a lot of questions about who defines what it is to be Native or Indian... especially once you get extremists claiming you CANNOT be native if you live like this or dress like that. To me that is as paternalistic and racist as it gets. Kinda like Harry Belafonte calling Colin Powell a sell-out. As if Cloin Powell is somehow less Black than himself because of his political views. You hit the nail on the head. That is exactly what I am talking about. I decided to address this question because I am sick of being put down by my own people because I chose to go to school or I decide to live in the city. Those are the ones who try dictate who is an Indian and then tell you that you are an "apple" and then tell you to turn in your status card. And I reiterate, being an Indian isn't something that you can give and take away.

Urn Burial Footnote amer. Natural, 1876, vol X, p. 455 et seq Indian Reservations,1900 Indian Reservations, 1930 Early native american Tribes and Culture http://www.nanations.com/burialcustoms/urnburial.htm
Extractions: "Urn-burial appears to have been practiced to some extent by the mound-builders, particularly in some of the Southern States. In the mounds on the Wateree River, near Camden, S. C., according to Dr. Blanding, ranges of vases, one above the other, filled with human remains, were found. Sometimes when the mouth of the vase is small the skull is placed with the face downward in the opening, constituting a sort of cover. Entire cemeteries have been found in which urn-burial alone seems to have been practiced. Such a one was accidentally discovered not many years since in Saint Catherine's Island, on the coast of Georgia. Professor Swallow informs me that from a mound at New Madrid, Mo, he obtained a human skull inclosed in an earthen jar, the lips of which were too small to admit of its extraction. It must therefore have been molded on the head after death." "A similar mode of burial was practiced by the Chaldeans, where the funeral jars often contain a human cranium much too expanded to admit of the possibility of its passing out of it, so that either the clay must have been modeled over the corpse, and then baked, or the neck of the jar must have been added subsequently to the other rites of interment."

Stone Graves Or Cists amer. Antiq. Soc., 1820 vol. 1, p. 302 There are many burying grounds in West Indian Reservations, 1900 Indian Reservations, 1930 Early native http://www.nanations.com/burialcustoms/stone_graves.htm
Extractions: Introductory Chapter Stone Graves or Cists These are of considerable interest, not only from their somewhat rare occurrence, except in certain localities, but from the manifest care taken by the survivors to provide for the dead what they considered a suitable resting-place. A number of cists have been found in Tennessee, and are thus described by Moses Fiske: [Footnote: Trans. Amer. Antiq. Soc., 1820 vol. 1, p. 302] It may be added that, in 1873, the writer assisted at the opening of a number of graves of men of the reindeer period, near Solutre, in France, and they were almost identical in construction with those described by Mr. Fiske, with the exception that the latter were deeper; this, however, may be accounted for if it is considered how great a deposition of earth may have taken place during the many centuries which have elapsed since the burial. Many of the graves explored by the writer in 1875, at Santa Barbara, resembled somewhat cist graves, the bottom and sides of the pit being lined with large flat stones, but there were none directly over the skeletons.

Extractions: Forrest Carters 'The Outlaw Josey Wales' by Jimmy Cantrell Gary North has written an article titled " Hollywood Westerns, Guns, and Property Rights " that emphasizes the centrality of the western genre to the American grappling with freedom. As a sort of complement, I offer the following. As with seemingly countless other works I have written, it has received rejections from various journals focusing on American literature and/or cultural history. My favorite rejection for this article came from a woman teaching in Texas and editing a fairly prominent journal. She said that while she believed in helping to air new and unusual approaches, mine were simply too far-fetched. For example, she noted, my claim that Southern literature is a folklore-based storytelling was unproven and thus my whole argument was invalid; plus, I showed no sensitivity to the pressing race concerns. A friend of mine later told me she was certain this non-biased, conscientious, tolerant editor-scholar was one of a group she had heard at a Modern Language Association convention discussing the ways to increase the teaching of texts written by lesbians of color in Freshperson [I made up neither the word nor the concept] composition and American literature survey classes. It may not seem possible, but it gets worse: the moderator of that panel was another woman teaching at a state university in the South, a professor whose scholarly presentation began with her overview of the importance of lesbian relationships in the old northeastern WASP establishment and concluded with her quoting and then analyzing her own love poems written to and/or about womyn of various darker hues.
