Crime rates are more than twice as high on reservations as they are elsewhere. American Indian women experience v...

CALLAWAY – In a good year, JoDan Rousu and his extended family can expect to get more than 200 gallons of refined maple syrup out of the family’s maple tree farm near here. This is not a good year. “We’ve been producing maple sugar commercially for 40-plus years, and this is quite possibly the strangest season we’ve ever seen,” Rousu said. He said they will be lucky to bottle 40 or 50 gallons of syrup from the harvest, which is wrapping up this week on the farm about 90 miles southwest of Bemidj...

In 1992, Congress expanded the observance to a monthlong celebration. Per a 1997 Office of Management and Budget directive, the Asian or Pacific...
