View results NAIS THE GAZETTE News from Indian Country "Native American - Indigenous Peoples of the Americas - Indian-American Indian - Aboriginal Amerind". Many names, a somewhat politically correct than the other for a people to indicate. To keep things a bit easier to use NAIS: "INDIANS" capitalized when talking about the original inhabitants of America goes. For Canada, telegram delivery "Aboriginal or First Nations!" 10.10.2012 VI WALN: COLUMBUS DAY, AND MANUFACTURES CHIEFS NEP CEREMONIN ..
In almost the entire country was this week celebrated Columbus Day. Some states call it Native American Day of Indigenous Peoples Day. Anyway telegram delivery it is a day that the historic landing of the lost Italian who is stranded on the shores of America commemorates.
Columbus arrived was our own people. The country provided fully meet our needs. Poverty, we did not know where our people knew how to survive. We had food, clothing and shelter throughout telegram delivery the year ..
Many of our ancestors were killed in the battle for their country. telegram delivery Some tribes even went so far as to their bloodline to extinction. Our people who survived the conflict were driven to strange places, far away from the homeland. They were herded on land that we now call the Rez. The Indian telegram delivery children were forcibly taken away and home to distant boarding schools brought with the intention to brainwash them for assimilation. Later, telegram delivery our people sent away by the relocation program, a modern attempt to make us blend into what they call the crucible.
It is not surprising that the poorest counties included in the report of the census of 2012 in South Dakota all lie within the boundaries of Indian reservations. Rosebud (Todd County), Cheyenne River (Zieback County), Pine Ridge (Shannon telegram delivery County) and Crow Creek (Buffalo County), our home. The per capita income in Buffalo County comes to $ 434 per month.
Many people who live in Rez know what it is to move from one salary payments to the other to live. They are the working poor and although they have a job, they still do without modern conveniences that most Americans in this country have.
Anyway, these are some of the reasons why Indian reservations in South Dakota known as the poorest places in the so-called telegram delivery welfare state that we call the United States of America. And when it comes to unemployment, living conditions and lack of adequate housing, to name but a few, we are suddenly invisible to those who do not live in the Rez.
Occasionally we get the attention of the media when any known media figure decides to once again focus on poverty issues. Then there public indignation. They call or write and ask what they can do to help?
Yet we are rich in values that can not be measured. Tribal peoples are the last 520 years came through telegram delivery with a majority of our ceremonial ways of life intact. We still sing the songs sung by our ancestors thousands of years ago. Many children live in the ceremonin to see to it that our prayers will survive for generations.
In recent years we have seen an influx of foreigners who want ceremonin our own. They come from the U.S. cities and other countries. Usually they challenge themselves in the summer telegram delivery on our Sundance ceremony to throw.
Most are dominated by their ego and be very arrogant. They dare us designate them according to what we are doing wrong in our ceremonies. Usually, those who behave in a way to the gate and brought forward with the ban never more to show. Problem solved! .... Or not. Typically the problems begin only now.
