Extractions: Partners MEMORANDUM July 11, 2001 SUBJECT : EPA Indian Policy TO : All EPA Employees In 1984, EPA became the first Federal agency to adopt a formal Indian Policy, when William D. Ruckelshaus pledged that the Agency would support the primary role of Tribal governments in matters affecting American Indian country. The United States has a unique legal relationship with Tribal Governments based on the Constitution, treaties, statues, Executive Orders, and court decisions. This relationship includes a recognition of the right of tribes as sovereign governments to self-determination, and an acknowledgment of the Federal government's trust responsibility to the Tribes. I hereby reaffirm the Agency's commitment to this long-established policy and the principles therein that guide the Agency in building a stronger partnership with Tribal Governments to protect the human health and environment of Indian communities.

Extractions: Home Contact Me Services Resources ... Idaho home issues Search Site I am proud of Idaho's vibrant history. Part of what makes up Idaho's culture is that it is home to five Native American Tribes: the Coeur d'Alene, Kootenai, Nez Perce, Shoshone-Bannock, and Shoshone-Paiute. They contribute to the richness of Idaho's history and are each important to its future. As part of my commitment to Idaho's Native Americans, I am a founding member of the Senate Native American Caucus, which was established in 2002. I also serve on the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs, which has many important issues before it this year including trust reform, Indian health care, Indian gaming, and the investigation into Tribal lobbying abuses. I hope this web page proves useful to those of Native American heritage and to those interested in Native American affairs. I welcome your comments and suggestions to make this site even more useful.

Extractions: "The utmost good faith shall always be observed towards the Indians, their lands and property shall never be taken from them without their consent, and in their property, rights and liberty, they shall never be invaded or disturbed, unless in just and lawful wars authorized by Congress." Northwest Ordinance, 13 July 1787 From the period of French trading in the 17th century to the removals of the early 19th century, the life of the Native Americans was dominated by one central theme - the growing conflict of cultures. As nomads of the woodlands, prairies, and plains, they occupied wide expanses of land where they hunted, fished, and preserved their cultural heritage. With the coming of the white man, however, Indian society and culture were threatened. Foreign ways and customs, different values and beliefs, an increasing white population in the Trans-Appalachian region, and the white man's desire for more land were some of the problems which menaced the Indians' previously unchallenged position in the wilderness. The earliest accounts of Indians in the Great Lakes region came in the 1630s from the French Jesuit missionaries who were seeking to form a civilized Christian Indian nation. These holy men envisioned Indian tribes thoroughly imbued with French culture and patriotism and serving as an extension of the French Empire in the New World. In subsequent years, French missionaries and fur traders continued to mingle with the different tribes.

Extractions: CORNPLANTER CURRENT U.S. NATIVE AMERICAN POLICY compiled by Dee Finney 3-29-02 - CORNPLANTER DREAM - I was dreaming about reading several paragraphs on a web page about the Native American - Cornplanter. Then the dream went into another scene where I was reading or at least scan-reading a magazine put out by a religious group about President George Bush and President William Clinton and their political relationship and police and the Native American during their terms of office. The magazine was written in 3 columns to a page, with many of the paragraphs in the center column highlighted with extra-large parentheses ( ) which stuck out into the other columns next to it on each side. When I finished looking at the magazine, I found myself in a building which was owned by a very conservative women's religious group. I was in the hallway with President Clinton and a man who did not look like, but I thought it was Al Gore. President Clinton left and I spent some time talking to Al Gore about what had been written about him and mentioned that there was nothing written about him that pointed to anything sexual about him, and the article seemed deliberately slanted that way. I was not able to go home because the room where my coat was hung had a meeting going on of all conservative religious women and I couldn't interrupt them.

Extractions: Since the arrival of Europeans on the shores of the North American continent, indigenous peoples have struggled to survive in a dominate culture that does not want them. Since this moment of invasion, Europeans in what is now the continental United States have been trying to fix the "Indian problem" by removing indigenous communities from valuable land (arable, rich in ores and other natural resources) to lands that were less valuable. This removal was forced through war and unwanted treaties and without regard to the effects it would have on the cultures of the Native American people. The Oglala Lakota are an example of a native community still dealing with this legacy. One of the 6 bands of the Lakota branch of the Sioux Nation, the Oglala Lakota currently live on the Pine Ridge reservation, located in the southeastern corner of South Dakota. The current conditions of homelessness, joblessness, poverty, and loss of traditional language fluency as described in segment three of "Matters of Race" are a direct result of the United States Indian policy of the 19th and 20th centuries. The purchase of the Louisiana Territories from France in 1803 and its subsequent exploration by Lewis and Clark one year later brought much needed land for the growing American population. White settlers traveled across this new land, as they headed to the Oregon, California, and Alaskan territories for their respective gold rushes. Most of the land these fortune seekers traversed was used by the Sioux Nation. Indian leaders asked the United States to keep its citizens off their land while White settlers demanded that the U.S. protect them from Indian attacks that were in retaliation for the white settlers' trespassing. Thus, the United States government began making treaties with Indian nations.

Extractions: This is the Cherokee Flag that was used by the Native Indian Troops who were fighting for independence during the Civil War. Most history books have depicted the Civil War as being only about slavery. That is not exactly the truth. The Indian trrops from the lower plains and midwest joined Stand Watie to be armed by the Confederates in a fight for their independence. They were the last to surrender long after the war was over. The words "Cherokee Braves" is emblazoned in the white strip. The five red stars represent the five civilized tribes. This flag was carried by General Stand Waite. We will periodically be changing the opening picture with various items of Cherokee History. This Site Hosted By: Ableza , a Native American Arts and Film Institute THE PURPOSE of this page is to entice Native Indians and Volunteers from other cultures, into becoming involved in research and writing concerning matters of which are effecting the Native American Indian Nations, Tribes, and Bands. THE REASON is that each of our Native Indian Nations are constantly involved in some type of legal battle. Thus, we recognize that these days the battles are not fought in the fields, prairies, swamps, or forests. They are fought in the boardrooms and courtrooms. That means, there are not enough warriors to continue this effort. Far too-many of our people are and sitting around and waiting for others to pursue the fight for sovereignty. Where have all the warriors gone, what are you waiting for. Being a POWWOW only Indian, or standing around playing "Big Time Know It All Indian" is a privilidge that is being granted to you by others that are truly in the fight. If you can read and write, you can fight.

Extractions: Map Collections, 1500-2003 In 1776, the Continental Congress appointed a committee to develop a plan for a central government. Shortly thereafter, the Articles of Confederation were written and a union of states, called the United States of America, came into being. Under the Articles of Confederation, the newly developed central government was required to share power with the states. Among the powers given over to the central government were making war and peace, conducting diplomatic relations, requisitioning men and money from the states, coining and borrowing money, and regulating Indian affairs. The states were responsible for enforcing laws, regulating commerce, administering justice, and levying taxes. During the mid 1780s, the Confederation Congress was particularly attentive to problems in the Northwest Territory, an area of land located between the thirteen states and the Mississippi River. Thousands of settlers had moved into the area by 1780. However, they were not the first settlers. Living on the land were numerous nations of Native Americans. The Congress spent a good deal of time and effort developing policies to keep peace between the white settlers and the Native Americans. Treaties, the appointment of government agents and superintendents to serve as intermediaries between Native Americans and the government, and raising and arming troops to put down insurrections, are examples of strategies the Confederation Congress used to maintain peace, meet the needs of the Native Americans, and open the area for further settlement.
