    (Reuters) - Native American tribes that tried to block the Dakota Access oil pipeline during a months-long standoff with authorities in North Dakota more than a year ago are carrying on their fight in federal court, in what they contend is a symbol of their ongoing struggle for tribal sovereignty.

    Aug 3, 2018

    Juul Labs came out swinging against a possible across-the-board prohibition on flavored tobacco, claiming it would be a detriment to adult smokers wanting to switch from cigarettes and could even drive U.S. consumers into an illicit "gray market." In a response to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's query on the role of flavors in tobacco products, the company said the FDA's "limited resources" would be better spent preventing youth access to tobacco, rather than possibly discouraging the uptake of electronic nicotine delivery systems, or...

  • Story spreads of Tohono O'odham brothers' arrest, deportation after using tribal border gate

He needed to cross again in March, so he hitched a ride and bounced over five miles of desert to the San Miguel Gate, in a remote spot west of Nogales. There, members of the Tohono O’odham tribe are supposed to cross the international boundary between Mexico and Arizona. https://www.azcentral.com/story/news/politics/border-issues/2018/08/02/oodham-brothers-arrested-dep...

  • Report: US News Media Part of the Problem in Misunderstanding Native Americans

    Aug 3, 2018

    WASHINGTON — A recent report confirms what Native Americans have always known: Most Americans know little, if anything, about American Indians, and what they do know is based on flawed narratives for which the mainstream media is largely to blame. At the same time, the report by the First Nations Development Institute and Echo Hawk Consulting (EHC) demonstrates media is poised to play an important role in dispelling misconceptions and helping to build new narratives. The two-year “Reclaiming Native Truth” project was designed to study preva...
