So, yesterday something really exciting happened! We spent the dawn to dusk filming a brand new 'something' for you guys at the Cottonwood in Sheridan, Wyoming.
We wanted to introduce you to a new friend, give you at least one evening of fun indoors and maybe a new life-long skill.
Clue: flour, water. . . any guesses?

The Choctaw Tribe supported the Irish during the potato famine of 1847. Now, some Irish are hoping to return the favour

Tweet HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — With the political fall-out from the Iowa caucuses dominating the 2020 presidential calculus, one independent candidate has chosen to make a statement beyond the chaos. Mark Charles, a dual citizen of the United States and Navajo Nation, has contributed a special introduc...

So for once I’m speechless. I’m sure that will change, but for now I’m gonna leave you guys to have your say first. . .

Don’t you love it when someone is unafraid to speak the truth?

This matters. PLEASE SHARE THIS ARTICLE like crazy.
Cheney should not get away with this behavior. She must be called out on it because her attitude toward tribal people and indigenous lifeways is pervasive, and its important that everyone understands the modus operandi in the right wing corridors of authority. The American public overwhelmingly supported keeping grizzlies protected and understood that the real issue of delisting grizzlies for republicans was not about safety or hunting; it was that while they remain protected, so too is the land on which they walk! Cheney and her friends in authority were desperate to delist grizzlies so they could make big money off the 28 energy leases they wanted to enable in the Yellowstone area. We stopped them.

Please note that I'm saying 'authority' and purposefully NOT attributing the word 'power' to her and her ilk because as our beautiful friend John Trudell used to say before he left us, actual power is a rainstorm. . . the thunders. . . the forces of nature. She, and people like her confuse power with authority.

John said "We have to understand who we are and where we fit in the natural order of the world because our oppressor deals in illusions. They tell us that it is power, but it is not power. They may have all the guns and they may have all the racist laws and judges, and they may control all the money, but that is not power. These are imitations of power and they are only ‘power’ because in our minds we allow it to be power."

Lets not allow her to get away with this nonsense.

HISTORICAL MOMENT AS KRISTI NOEM SETS THE BAR AS THE FIRST UNITED STATES GOVERNOR BANNED FROM A TRIBAL NATION

The Oglala Sioux Tribal Council unanimously decided that Gov. Kristi Noem is no longer welcome on the Pine Ridge Reservation.

The council approved on Wednesday that Noem is not to set foot on the reservation unless she rescinds support for her two bills aimed at Keystone XL pipeline protesters that would codify "riot boosting" in state law and allow the state to sue any person or organization for "riot boosting." Noem announced the bills during the final week of this year's session and the Legislature passed them within 72 hours.

The Oglala Sioux Tribe was "particularly offended" that Noem consulted with TransCanada prior to introducing the new bills, but didn't consult with any of the Sioux tribes whose land would be "traversed and endangered" by the Keystone XL pipeline. The land that "big oil" seeks to enter is the tribe's lands and waters, Oglala Sioux President Julian Bear Runner wrote in a letter to Noem.

"I am hereby notifying you that you are not welcome to visit our homelands, the Pine Ridge Reservation, until you rescind your support for Senate Bill 189 and Senate Bill 190 and affirm to your state and this country that First Amendment rights to free, political speech are among the truths you hold to be self-evident," Bear Runner wrote.

Sad but awesome. So very happy that the art collector understood!!

When diplomacy and a plea to return sacred ceremonial masks to an American Indian tribe in the United States failed, officials from the Navajo Nation traveled to the Paris auction house selling the items and started bidding for them.

Tanka bars are the well established original. Why do these kinds of people think every damn thing is theirs to take advantage of and exploit?

Wildlife researchers are calling the Government of the Northwest Territories incentive for wolf hunters a political 'distraction.'

OMGsh, I guess this is what the John Wayne era did for the world’s window on tribal people. Yuk!!

WYOMING UNTRAPPED put out great info today telling you exactly how you can actively help to stop this barbaric practice.
Please share this, but please don’t just be a Facebook finger-warrior. If the relevant people get enough reasoned dissent, we can change this.
Make the calls, send the emails, and stop the agony of these four-leggeds!
We saved the grizzlies, now let’s do this too!!

FROM WYOMING UNTRAPPED
This is reality. Traps are indiscriminate, and every animal is a possible target of these archaic devices, especially during the winter season when they are the most vulnerable.

Our wildlife managers need to hear from well-informed, reasonable and respectful voices. Please, calmly consider doing the following:

Tribal people called this place home over 10,000 years before the Pilgrims anchored at Cape Cod.

Since the days of Bridger and Moran, through Yellowstone becoming the first and now oldest national park in the world, the absence of a tribal presence in Yellowstone has been explained by the myth that Indians feared this vast, pine-robed plateau that is punctuated by thermal wonders from lakeshore to river course. Supposedly, the geysers engendered such apprehension among tribal people that they would do all they could to avoid this bountiful landscape. It was, like so much in the reinvention of The West, false!

26 tribes consider Yellowstone part of their traditional land base and have deep cultural ties to this land. Even the federal government admits this! But how many visitors understand the significance to indigenous people? Truthfully, with so little interpretation available in the 'park', most simply pass on by, not even knowing the existence of some of the most interesting and beautiful places and beings in the Land of the Yellow Rock Water.

It’s well worth your time to read this article. The republican’s story about Elizabeth Warren has been ridiculous from the start but we mustn’t be adding fuel to their fire!

The majority of Americans know little to nothing about Native Americans, our issues, or our contributions
