Posted On: December 29, 2011 Hey there Mike, (Mike Hanback), how are ya? Well, I’ve got some pretty exciting news. You had a blog last year with trail camera pictures I was getting of some giants.

His recalibration plan sparked protests from faculty, staff and students upset by the elimination of four academic pro...

Recently, there has been media coverage of the State of South Dakota taking Native American children out of their homes. This breaks up families already facing atrocious social conditions. However, the initial National Public Radio series and subsequent coverage do not anchor their story, first and foremost, in the experiences of the Lakota, Dakota and Nakota children. Instead, elaborate federal funding schema, sinister state social workers, and victimized Indian adults are used to paint a familiar story about the Indigenous in South Dakota,...

The holiday season has been grim for many at the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa Indians in North Dakota, said a tribal member whose general assistance funds have been cut off for several months. “I haven’t had a check since July and at this point can’t even afford a newspaper,” the tribal member said. “And there’s no other source of money here for the many people who have lost this funding—no casino money, nothing.” Read more:http://indiancountrytodaymedianetwork.com/2011/12/29/unhappy-holidays-nationwide-69571 http://indianco...
