  • Third Circuit Finds Agreement To Arbitrate Unenforceable Because Arbitration Was Directed To An Illusory Forum

    Apr 10, 2018

    Where a Loan Agreement’s arbitration provision stated disputes “will be resolved by Arbitration, which shall be conducted by the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribal Nation by an authorized representative in accordance with its consumer dispute rules and the terms of this Agreement,” the Third Circuit Court held, on review, that the Tribe was required to be involved in the arbitration. This, however, proved impossible, because the Court found no such tribal arbitral forum exists. The Court found that “[t]he Choice of Arbitrator provision allows the par...

  • Iowa's Anti-Protest Bill Would Make The Boston Tea Partiers Felons

    Apr 10, 2018

    In what might be one of the most dramatic crackdowns on non-violent protest in recent years, the Iowa state legislature just passed a bill to make it a felony, punishable by up to 25 years in jail, for any “unauthorized and overt act intended to cause” a substantial and widespread “interruption or impairment of a fundamental service” of gas, oil, petroleum or refined petroleum products. The bill is a ramped-up version of the generic “Critical Infrastructure Protection Act” that the American Legislative Exchange Council, a Virginia-ba...

  • Sexual abuse survivors use traditional healing to recover from trauma on Spirit Lake reservation: 2018 Alexia Foundation professional photography grant winner

    Apr 10, 2018

    On the Spirit Lake Sioux reservation in North Dakota, victims of recurrent sexual abuse turn to spiritual and traditional healing to overcome their pain. The majority of the sex crimes go unpunished, and tribal council authorities do not provide law enforcement or prosecute the offenders. Photographer Rena Effendi’s haunting portraits and interviews called “Spirit Lake” explore the effects of trauma and the cycle of abuse in a place where poverty, chronic unemployment, addiction, depression and suicide rates are startlingly high. The National I...

    Apr 10, 2018

    Back in 1744, colonial leaders from Pennsylvania, Virginia and Maryland met with a delegation from what at the time was one of the great powers on the North American continent. It was a confederation of Native American nations who called themselves the Haudenosaunee, though we're more familiar with them by their French name, the Iroquois. As recounted in James Wilson's book "The Earth Shall Weep: A History of Native America," the native leader Canastego expressed frustration at the colonists' quarreling with one another. "We heartily recommend...

  • Tribes Lead The Way For Faster Internet Access In New Mexico

    Apr 10, 2018

    For decades in these sparsely populated valleys and peaks in northern New Mexico, the internet has been slow, unreliable and expensive. This region is not remote, exactly. Several small tribal communities are nestled a half hour’s drive from the state seat in Santa Fe and the same distance from Albuquerque, the state’s largest city. But most cell phone service drops conspicuously between the two urban centers, and internet connections are elusive. http://kunm.org/post/tribes-lead-way-faster-internet-access-new-mexico...

    Apr 10, 2018

    WASHINGTON (AP) — Federal agents on Monday raided the office of President Donald Trump's personal attorney Michael Cohen, seizing records on topics including a $130,000 payment made to porn actress Stormy Daniels.
