current archive resources contact ... subscribe media search: newspapers magazines who owns what jobs in association with Contents A Native Press Primer by Richard LaCourse La Course, associate editor of the Yakama Nation Review in Toppenish, Washington, is a member of the Yakama Nation of Washington state. Richard LaCourse The United States today has 557 federally recognized Indian tribes residing on about 100 million acres of land. The national Indian population is just under two million, with about half residing on Indian reservations. Across the nation, there are approximately 280 reservation newspapers and bulletins, 320 urban Indian publications, about 100 magazines, thirty radio stations, and one television station. Between 1852 and 1980, sixty-four American Indian tribes adopted written constitutions containing specific provisions for a free press within their sovereign reservation boundaries. Declaration of a free press was a direct exercise of the legal powers of tribal governments in behalf of their citizenry. The first such guarantees emerged among the Choctaw peoples in 1852. The Constitution and Laws of the Choctaw Nation, printed that year at Doaksville, Oklahoma Indian Territory, contained the following provisions: "That the printing press shall be free to every person, and no law shall ever be made to restrain the rights thereof. The free communication of opinions is one of the inviolable rights of man, and every citizen may freely speak, write and print on any subject, being responsible for the abuse of that liberty."

Peter Perkins Pitchlynn Choctaw chief Charles Fenderich (1805-1887) P.S. Duval Lithography Company, 1842 In the early 1830's when George Catlin painted Hat-choo-tuck-nee ("The Snapping Turtle"), familiarly called Peter Pitchlynn by whites, the future Choctaw chief had already become a figure of influence. Having eradicated polygamy in his tribe and stopped the liquor traffic, Pitchlynn had been rewarded in the 1820's with election to the Choctaw National Council. In that capacity, helped select new lands for his people when they were moved west of the Mississippi. Of mixed white and Indian ancestry, Pitchlynn was well educated in both traditions and served as an effective liaison with the federal government. Impressive in his bearing"as stately and complete a gentleman of nature's making as ever I beheld," wrote Charles Dickenshe became principal chief in 1860 and served as representative of his tribe in Washington after the Civil War. A gifted orator, Pitchlynn addressed the President and several congressional committees in defense of Choctaw claims. He died in Washington, D.C., in 1881 and was buried in the Congressional Cemetery, where the Choctaw nation placed a monument in recognition of his service and allegiance to his people.

This picture was done for me by Tim at Sioux City Ranch Native Americans Just the fact that there are still American Indians is proof of their strength. In the movies I've heard it said "the only good Indian is a dead Indian". Our ancestors tried their best to make sure there were none left. Since we never honored any of the treaties we made with them I would think that technically they should still own all the land we took away from them. For those of you who don't know, the Indians didn't believe the land could be owned. Chief Seattle wrote the American Government, in the 1800's, explaining why you could not own the Earth. It's worth the read. I believe the Indians were the first hippies. Think about it. They wore feathers in their hair . Wore what the white man thought were funny clothes. The Indians were the first conservationist. They had great respect for every living thing. They smoked funny tobacco in their pipes and used mind altering plants in their ceremonies. In the beginning they shared with the first colonist. Many of our settlers would have died if not for the Indians. And what was the reward for those that weren't killed? We shipped them off to reservations and even today many still live on reservations. What has always fascinated me is the spirituality of the Indians. I have participated in sweat lodge ceremonies and you would be amazed at how much it puts you in touch with your inner self. For many years the ceremonies were banned by the government because the Indians would not claim it as a religion. There the government of the United States of America (the home of the free) classified it as a pagan ceremony and would not allow it to be practiced. Fortunately there were medicine men that carried on the tradition in secret. I'm now also fortunate to live about forty miles from a reservation. The Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians have pow wows and other events that I attend. If you ever have the opportunity to attend one of these you shouldn't miss it. They're held all over the country and you can learn a lot about about the culture.

Registration Drives in Oklahoma bring in 17,000 new voters By Ruth Steinberger Two high profile voter registration drives in Oklahoma tribes have registered nearly 17,000 new voters in time to be heard in the upcoming general election. Mike Miller, Spokesman for the Cherokee Nation told Native American Times that the tribe considered the recent registration drive very successful, with over 9,000 Cherokee tribal members becoming registered to vote in the upcoming elections. Miller explained that the efforts by the Cherokee Nation included more than just getting people signed up. He said, "Part of our effort was at registering people, and part is on educating people on how important it is to vote and what issues are important to Native Americans. Both of those together helped increase the number of voters we registered."

At the young age of twenty-years, he received a federal appointment as assistant factor at the Choctaw Trading House at St. Stephens in 1804. His appointment as factor became official in 1807, and he was named postmaster at St. Stephens, Alabama. The Choctaws were Gaines' principle customers at the trading house, but the Chickasaw from the upper Tombigbee region, Creeks living on the Black Warrior and Alabama Rivers, and white settlers from the lower Tombigbee and Tensaw settlements (*) purchased goods from Gaines. The Native Americans of the area, especially the Choctaws, were good friends of, and trusted, Gaines. He worked closely with the Indians and learned many of their customs and beliefs.

Beware that there is a tremendous amount of fraud and misrepresentation which exists on the East Coast (and on the Net) for "Indian" events and products. This fraud represents millions of dollars in revenue being deprived of our legitimate tribal Indian populations. There also exists, on the Internet and in reality, groups that give the appearance of being actual tribes, nations or having affiliation with actual tribes and nations. In most cases their purposes are not honestly represented and their existence creates enmity with the tribes and nations which they claim to represent or from which they claim to be descended.
