  • Sioux Nation Superstore Claims Spoiled-Meat Problems Fixed

    Jun 18, 2012

    Richard Whitmarsh, director of Sioux Nation Superstore, in Pine Ridge, South Dakota, has responded publicly to charges of spoiled-meat sales that closed down first the store’s meat department on Friday, May 4, then the entire privately operated, 50-employee business a week later. The problems began after an Oglala Sioux Tribe member purchased meat that was “said to be spoiled,” according to Whitmarsh. The meat was not tested and proven to be tainted, he noted, and the Indian Health Service reported no incidents of food poisoning at the time....

  • Is Elder Abuse Happening to Someone You Know or Love?

    Jun 18, 2012

    Elders in Indian Country are revered and respected for their knowledge and leadership skills. We transport them, offer elder services, care for their needs and love them. The words “abuse” and “elder” don’t generally enter our minds in the same context. Elder abuse is not traditional—however, it is happening in your community and throughout Indian Country. Maybe even to someone you know or love. The National Indigenous Elder Justice Initiative (NIEJI) was funded in 2011 by the National Center on Elder Abuse and the Administration on Aging (A...

The RV is a 2006 model that the Tribal Police acquired from FEMA — in fact, the vehicle was being used to coordinate recovery later efforts down south after Hurricane Katrina hit in 2005. While the police department got the shell of the v...

    Indian students who want to go to college have an unlimited amount of possibility. If they study hard and get good grades, they can attend any college or university in the United States, including the Ivy Leagues. Unfortunately, few high school counselors and teachers are telling them that. Fifty percent of Indian students drop out of high school. I often wonder if the racist attitudes of school people will ever change. It has not in my lifetime, which is almost three-quarters of a century now....
