http://www.gatheringofnations.com/educate/articles/strangers.htm
You are here: Front Page Learn! Native Articles, Reading, and a Prayer The Welcoming of Strangers Next: A Tribute to Sammy 'Tonekei' White The Welcoming of Strangers
Compiled by Adolf and Beverly Hungry Wolf In a region where native tribes were feared for their cunning and aggressiveness, the Flathead people stood out like an island of safety and friendship. Even critical missionaries of the last century credited the Flatheads with having the virtues of modesty, frankness, courage, goodness and generosity. "A nation of chiefs," said one of the Catholic priests. Although the people bravely fought their hereditary enemies - Blackfoot, Shoshone, Gros Ventre and Sioux - they never once fought against the Westward moving white men, who later cheated the tribe out of the Bitterroot Valley. A notorious case of intermarriage was recorded by Teit. A man named John Grant lived among the people. His mother was from the nearby Kalispel tribe; his father had been a trader for the Hudson's Bay Company. Grant lived in a round house with six bedrooms, each occupied by one of his six wives. Each wife was from a different tribe, including Crow and Shoshone. He later left his wives and children and took off to Red River, Manitoba. His descendants stayed on the reservation and intermarried there.

Salishan Languages
The Salishan languages were spoken aboriginally along the Pacific Coast of British Columbia and Washington and eastward into western Montana. The homeland of the protolanguage was probably the delta of the Fraser River—the center of the coastal language distribution and the head of a route into the interior. Kootenay, a language isolate, may have a common ancestry with proto-Salish, based on two dozen similarities. By 1800 the Salishan family consisted of twenty-three interlinked languages, separated by the Cascade Range into Coast (sixteen members) and Interior (seven members) divisions. Each member language also included several internal dialects. The four branches within Coast Salish include Bella Coola (northernmost), Central, Tsamosan, and Tillamook (on the Oregon coast). Central Coast Salish, centered in the border homeland, includes Comox, Sechelt, Pentlatch, Squamish, Nooksak, Halkomelem (including Chilliwack, Musqueam, and Cowichan), Straits (including intergrading Sooke, Saanich, Songhees, Lummi, Samish, Semiahmoo, and Klallam, the most distinct), Twana, and Lushootseed (Puget). Tsamosan, sometimes called Olympic, includes Cowlitz, Upper (including Satsop) and Lower Chehalis, and Quinault. Interior Salish, which arose later, consists of St'at'imcets (Lillooet), Nlakapamuxcin (Thompson), and Sexwepemuxcin (Shuswap) in British Columbia; the three Columbia River dialect chains of Methow-Okanogan-Nespelem-Sanpoil-Colvile-Lakes, Chelan-Entiat-Wenatchi-Columbian, and Kalispel-Spokan-Selish (Flathead); and, in Idaho, Coeur d'Alene.

    Abstract:
      Henry O'Neill's narrative of first encounter in 1882 with residents of the plateau south of the Rovuma (in Mozambique) constitutes the earliest contribution to the written record on the area. By his presence among and accounts of these people, O'Neill transformed regional villains into victims awaiting British stewardship. This article portrays those O'Neill met on the plateau as more complex historical subjects who brought to the encounter their own fears, aspirations, and strategic agendas. Whereas the writings of the Subaltern Studies Group provide the author with a useful point of departure, the article critiques Subaltern Studies' excessive focus on textual readings, turning instead to the accounts of contemporary descendants of history's silenced subjects to construct an alternative narrative. Kelton, Paul.

The mainstream media were training grounds for approximately 40 percent of Native American Journalism Association members working in the Native media. This suggests that Native American journalists leaving the mainstream media may be doing so for cultural reasons. Within the Native American journalism community, journalism has been described as "a new form of storytelling."' However, the lack of demographic information about Native American journalists indicates a significant limitation in understanding minorities in the media. This study provides baseline demographic information about Native American journalists, and also explores when and how Native journalists decide to enter the media. Since minority students account for 17 percent of the college population, the implications are clear that all professions are competing for a relatively small pool of college-educated minorities. U.S. newspapers need more than good intentions to increase their 10.5 percent representation of minorities in the newsroom.2 Finding a pipeline into journalism for minorities is a pragmatic area that has received little attention from mass communication researchers.3

An introductory paragraph to each story provides a brief outline of the tribe's history. Where available, explanations are suggested as to how the stories might relate to the seasonal movement of the stars. A bibliography provides sources (generally scholarly papers) for each myth presented. The preface notes that such stories reinforce behavioral standards for the people.
