  • Beltrami, Cass rank low in state’s health

    Steve Wagner, Bemidji Pioneer|Apr 9, 2012

    BEMIDJI – When the latest rankings for county health were released this week, it contained some sobering news for the north country. Cass County ranked at the bottom of the list for Minnesota, and Beltrami County fared almost as poor. The County Health Rankings, prepared by the University of Wisconsin Population Health Institute, ranks the overall health of counties by measuring residents’ health and how long they live. In Minnesota, 84 of the 87 counties received a ranking this year, with three counties – Traverse, Kittson and Lake of the W...

  • Apr 9, 2012

    White Earth Reservation is the largest Indian Reservation in Minnesota, with a section of its 1,093 square miles lying in Becker County. Home to the White Earth Nation, the Anishinaabe people continue fighting to keep their deep cultural roots intact while moving into a fast-paced, technology driven world. This sometimes proves to be a tough “fancy dance” to master, as today’s Native American youth engage the world around them. Unfortunately, for some on the Reservation, that world can also...

  • April is Distracted Driving Awareness Month

    USDOT|Apr 9, 2012

    April is National Distracted Driving Awareness Month, and from Virginia to California, the traffic safety community has a simple message for drivers: One Text or Call could Wreck it All. DOT has worked hard for several years to end the deadly epidemic of distracted driving. But to kickoff this month, I want to thank the States for their efforts in this important safety fight. In California, where texting and talking on a hand-held cell phone while driving are against the law, the California...

  • Senate committee told: ‘Wolf is a brother to original man’

    Don Davis, Bemidji Pioneer|Apr 9, 2012

    ST. PAUL – A Mississippi American Indian leader objects to a wolf hunting season that appears near passage in the Minnesota Legislature. She joins several Great Lakes-area tribes in opposing wolf hunting and trapping proposals. Chairwoman Sandra Skinaway of the Sandy Lake Band of Mississippi Chippewa told a Minnesota Senate committee about her concerns, but said the issue flew under the radar and she missed testifying to a House committee. “In the Anishinaabe creation story, we are taught that the wolf is a brother to original man (An...

    When I was asked to cover a cultural exchange between visiting Hawaiians and local Native Americans, I thought "this could be interesting." I was expecting a performance, but what I saw was a powerful sharing of spiritual, cultural, and historical experience. The Halau Kiawekupono O Ka Ua, from O'ahu, Hawaii were at Carlton College in Northfield for the week of April 4-8 for classes and a performance. They visited native Minnesotans from 'the very very big island of North America' at the Minneapolis American Indian Center on Thursday at noon...

    For Erin Schweitzer, who lives on the Menominee Reservation 45 miles northwest of Green Bay, Wisconsin, the bullying of her 11-year-old daughter started with names: "bitch," "whore," "fugly." Schweitzer told her daughter's teacher, but things got worse — the bully attacked her on the bus, slamming her head into the window. Schweitzer says the girl got a week of lunchtime detention, but soon started again, this time with cyberbullying. It wasn't until then that Schweitzer learned that Wisconsin's anti-bullying legislation doesn't apply on M...

  • The Bread of a Tribe

    Apr 9, 2012

    Every nation in Indian Country has their own recipe for bread—many are a variation of cornbread. While breads are often geographically identified, the different types of bread are generally shared by all. Here in the Northeast, we love our johnnycakes and nut breads, wild rice bread, appones and pumpkin bread. The Southeast commonly uses hominy, sweet potatoes, and many other combinations. Bannock shines in the Plains, as tortillas of every shape and size rule in the Southwest, as does Buckskin bread in the Northwest. Read m...
