EXCERPTED FROM AN ADDRESS BY

PRESIDENT BRIAN CLADOOSBY OF THE

NATIONAL CONGRESS OF AMERICAN

INDIANS ON JANUARY 22, 2015.

>>

I WANT TO THANK THE Creator for this beautiful day, for allowing me the privilege of representing Indian Country and for the opportunity to honor our history and celebrate the promise of our nation-to-nation relationship. >Indian Country is leading. Indian Country is innovating. Indian Country is growing. And the state of Indian nations grows stronger by the day. Tribal nations are steadily reclaiming our rightful place among the American family of governments. And we are doing this despite antiquated ways of thinking about Native peoples and tribal governments and outdated policies that belong to another century. I bring a simple message from the tribes of the 21st Century: we must tear down barriers to growth, simplify regulations that are limiting opportunities, and acknowledge that tribes have the capability as governments to oversee our own affairs. As we reach out to the federal government as a partner, we must continue to insist that the United States honors its trust responsibility to Native peoples, [recognize] Indian Country’s legal authority to control its own destiny [and modernize] the trust relationship between our nations. >This is a remarkable moment in our shared history. For the 566 federally recognized tribal nations and many state recognized tribes, for the more than five million Native people living in cities or on reservations across this land, these are the days that our ancestors prayed for. We must seize the opportunity to sustain our progress. As the twenty-first President of the National Congress of American Indians I have been privileged to witness great progress over the past few years, from our families to our tribal councils to Capitol Hill. In the last six years, we have seen Congress and the Administration work together to pass an unprecedented number

of bipartisan bills that will improve opportunities for our peoples. Last [December], I was proud to join hundreds of tribal leaders from across the nation [at the] sixth annual Tribal Nations Summit with President Obama. [In 2014] we were privileged to have [the] President visit one of our tribal homelands. [He] told me his trip to the Standing Rock Sioux Indian Reservation had a profound impact [and] he urged his cabinet to follow his lead and make visiting Indian Country a priority.>We’ve also suffered some losses. Close to my heart and to many across Indian Country was the loss of my friend and mentor, a Native American hero, an American hero, Billy Frank Jr. Billy was from the Pacific Northwest. His people, the Nisqually nation, are fishing people. At age 14, he was arrested for exercising his treaty rights by fishing in the Nisqually River. Over the years, he was arrested more than 50 times. And those arrests laid the groundwork for an historic judicial ruling, later affirmed by the Supreme Court, which acknowledged that our treaties reserved our right to fish where we had for generations. Our rights as sovereign nations were not granted by the Constitution, they existed before there was a Constitution. If you don’t know who Billy Frank was, you’re not alone, [it] is a history that’s not often taught in schools, but it is essential to understanding the connection between our nations, the trust that defines our partnership, and the responsibility that is entrusted to all federal officials–especially Members of Congress. That’s why Billy had the same message: tell your story; [he] knew that no one could tell our story better than we can. >There are many people who believe that when Europeans got to this land and moved west, they simply claimed empty Indian land for themselves; but that’s not true. When my grandfather and Billy’s grandfather were young, the U.S. government signed more than 400 treaties. In fact, it was 160 years ago today that my dad’s great-grandfather, Kel-kahl-tsoot, signed the Point Elliott Treaty, between the Swinomish tribe and the United States. Tribal nations like ours accepted a smaller land

S T A T E O F T H E I N D I A N N A T I O N S 13

base. In exchange, the federal government made three basic promises: to guard our right to govern ourselves, to enable tribal governments to deliver essential services and to help manage our remaining lands and resources in our best interests. These treaties are older than many U.S. state constitutions; the Point Elliott Treaty preceded the existence of the State of Washington. All of our treaties continue to stand as the “supreme law of the land.” Every Member of Congress and federal official is responsible for carrying out that trust whether a Member has a tribe in their district or not. Part of their job description is to make sure that the United States of America honors its commitments and lives up to its word. It’s not a handout it’s a contract [and] a commitment, it’s their duty to honor it.>Why do I mention this history now? Many tribes today are on the forefront of innovative, 21st century governance. Don’t take my word for it, come and see for yourselves. Come to the Ohkay Owingeh Pueblo, where you will see homes as old as 700 years being rehabilitated. Come to Shaktoolik, Alaska, where you will meet the first cavity-free elementary classes [as a] result of the Dental Health Therapist workforce, the first-of its kind in-the-nation. Come to Lummi Nation, where you’ll see the first tribally-developed and operated commercial wetland mitigation bank in the United States, creating income streams while preserving fishing streams for salmon and shellfish. Many tribes are engines of economic growth, not just for Native people, but for non-Native people, too. There are nearly a quarter million Native-owned businesses across the United States. These are more than Native American success stories. They are American success stories. And we’re ready to write many more in the years to come.>Part of modernizing our trust relationship means modernizing the way Native people are respected, and our civil rights are upheld. For this reason, I want to talk about the stereotypes and degradation that Native peoples continue to be subjected to in our society; I want to talk about the name of the Washington DC football team. Allow me

to read from the pages of a Minnesota newspaper published one September day in 1863: “The State reward for dead Indians has been increased to $200 for every red-skin sent to Purgatory. This sum is more than the dead bodies of all the Indians east of the Red River are worth.” History is clear on what that vile word meant: it was the scalped head of an American Indian man, woman, or child that trappers and hunters sold, like bear fur, for money. Let me be very clear, the single most offensive name that you can call an American Indian is “Redskin.” Today, a majority of people agree; a recent national survey 83 percent of Americans said they wouldn’t use the R-word to a Native American’s face. There is no honor in the name of that team. We’re calling on all fair-minded Americans to stand with us.>The next step in strengthening [the trust] relationship is for the federal government to trust tribes to determine their own future. Whether policy related to energy, health care, education, privacy rights or immigration, too often policymakers fail to understand tribal perspectives or seek input from tribal leaders and citizens. We don’t want the federal government to solve our problems or dictate our future, we want to solve our own problems [and] build our own future. We believe that the greatest source of solutions that work for Indian Country is Indian Country itself. I see three important ways we can modernize the trust relationship: simplifying government regulations, improving education and focusing the talents of tribal nations to create economic growth. >Our frustration today is similar to [that] felt by state governments forced to live under regulations that were written for another age and time. Congress and the Administration need to find ways to help bring federal agencies out of the 19th Century and into the 21st Century; we need them to be partners for growth and not barriers to [it]. Take access to capital. The ability to issue tax-exempt bonds to fund projects is the bread and butter of every modern state and local government, yet this economic development tool is not available to tribes. Take law enforcement:

14

despite an act of Congress, the FBI continues to deny tribal police access to the same National Crime Information Center database that they make available to state, local, and even some campus police. If a protective order is issued [by a tribal court] in a domestic violence case, the court often cannot enter that order into the federal database [and] that protection might not follow the survivor off the reservation. The same goes for the Census of governments: every five years, 70,000 government entities are surveyed but tribal governments have never been included in this process, so [they don’t have] the data that every other government uses.>In spite of these barriers, tribes are maintaining their place as the first American innovators. Just last week, President Obama highlighted a public-private partnership that brought high-speed Internet access to the Choctaw Nation. The Choctaw School of Language is offering distance education courses and the Broken Bow School District serves over 1,000 students using smart boards, iPads, online lesson plans, and tools that increase parent engagement. We need a comprehensive and updated study of our technology needs to advance more common sense initiatives like this one to increase our participation in the Digital Age.>I want to [discuss] two important areas where bipartisan solutions exist: education and economic growth. No resource is more important to the continued success and growth of tribal nations and the United States than our children. Education is a treaty right. The greatest way to invest in this precious natural resource is to provide a high-quality, culturally-appropriate education that benefits all Native children and gives Native students the same chance to succeed as their non-Native peers. For Indian Country, it goes back to trust, flexibility, and local solutions. We call on Congress to reauthorize the Elementary and Secondary Education Act this year and the inclusion of tribal provisions to encourage tribal-state partnerships, strengthen local control of education, and begin to help every school deliver a high-quality education. We also call on

Congress to enact legislation that supports Native language programs so education for our children is rooted in our history and culture.>NCAI continues to work to convert the policy ideas that inspire and guide tribal nations today into policy advice for the Administration and Congress. Today we are releasing a report that outlines our priorities for this year: “Promoting Self-Determination and Modernizing the Trust Relationship.“ The report identifies specific ways the United States can uphold these commitments. I urge all Members of Congress to read it, review it with your staff, use it as an occasion to continue the necessary conversation about how our nations can move forward together. The relationship we have inherited, like any good relationship, depends on respect and trust. >I have a replica wampum belt. As they have for generations, the nations of the Iroquois confederacy exchange belts like this as a sign of peace and friendship. I carry this wampum belt today because it, too, is a sign of peace and friendship, but it also symbolizes the inherent sovereignty of tribal nations, who from time immemorial have made treaties among themselves, treaties with European nations and treaties with the United States. In 1744, Canassatego, a representative from the Iroquois confederacy, had a recommendation for colonists from Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Virginia. He said, “Whatever befalls you, never fall out with one another.” The same wisdom applies to our nation-to-nation relationship today. May we work together, make progress together and build a bright future for all Americans together.>God bless the Tribal Nations and the National Congress of American Indians. And God bless the United States of America. >>THE FULL TEXT AND VIDEO OF

It’s calm before the storm, the adults lie in the grass, drink, eat and watch their young. All is perfectly normal. They don’t notice, at least as far as we can tell, that for the past few weeks men in trucks have been nudging them very slowly to a particular corner of the prairie, near a compound of pens and buildings. They don’t know that later today they will be herded by the men in trucks one last time, into the pens. For now, the mood is peaceful and serene. >The Bison Roundup is an annual event, usually around early November. Attendance is by invitation, unless you are a member of the Nature Conservancy and then you are invited on a rotating basis. The Conservancy takes care of this land and its inhabitants; the annual roundup is to count, inoculate and generally check on the herd. See more of this event in the next issue. >http://www.nature.org/ourinitiatives/regions/northamerica/unitedstates/oklahoma/placesweprotect/tallgrass-prairie-preserve.xml

>>Native Games America, LLC (Native Games) is the creation of Mark Strom, a New Zealand Maori from the northern tribe of Te Roroa and Jeff Martinez of Apache descent. Together, they have teamed with G3 (Global Gaming Group) to bring a wealth of gaming knowledge and expertise to make Native Games a serious future manufacturer and developer of Land-based, Internet and Mobile games. “Native casinos are among the largest purchasers of electronic games, why shouldn’t Natives make them too?” reasoned Mark at NIGA 2014 last spring.>

The companty was formed in 2008 with a patented device called the Multi Wager Gaming System, which requires wagers to be made in two coin or credit increments. Native Games certified games that utilise this system have better hit frequencies, especially on the higher awards. For example a Royal Flush, the top hand in the game of video poker, hits around one in 40,000 hands played (pays 4000), whereas in the game of Royal Spoil the same hand hits around one in 6250 hands played (pays 4000). According to Mark, “There are many ways to use the method in game math as the mathematicians can manipulate the two coins in many ways to effect volatility and create dynamic attractive paytables.”

With a team of world-class developers, Native Games has built an international presence connecting with operators from Europe, Asia, Caribbean, South and North America. Plans to roll out certified Class III gaming equipment commence throughout 2014 with California and Wisconsin casinos being the first to feature the new content.>

Mark has been travelling to the US for the last 12 years and in particular developing cultural relationships within the Native American gaming communities. He hosted a delegation of Native Americans in New Zealand on his tribal lands which was of great significance as they talked about sovereign, economic and social issues that face native communities worldwide. He believes indigenous trade between tribes internationally is a project with huge prospects for future economic development of native communities. “Being able to be involved with my tribe’s development is very important for me.” >>

TEXAS HOLD’EM>>Each player is dealt two private cards and there are five face up shared cards on the table. The winner is the player who can make the best five-card poker hand from the seven available cards. Since the 1990’s, Texas Hold’em has become one of the most popular poker games worldwide.>Texas Hold’em is usually played with no ante, but with blinds. The player to the dealer’s left must make a “small blind” bet. The player to the left of the small blind must make a “big blind” bet. The amounts of both should be specified in advance. >The cards are shuffled and cut, and two cards are dealt down to each player, starting with the person to the dealer’s left. Players may look at their two cards and must not show them to another player. The player to the left of the big blind must either call or raise the big blind bet. The play in turn will go around the table according to poker rules. Table rules will specify any limits on the size or number of raises. >Three community cards will be dealt face up in the center of the table. This is called the flop. There is then a second betting round begun by the first player to the left of the dealer. The dealer then deals one card face up, known as the turn. There is a third betting round, where limits are doubled. The dealer deals a fifth card face up: the river. Then there is fourth and final round of high limit betting. >Players show their hands in clockwise order, beginning with the last player to bet or raise in the final betting round. Each player makes the best possible five-card poker hand from the seven available cards: the player’s two cards and the five face-up table cards, known as the board. This can be done in any combination. Are you ready to play?

3-CARD POKER>>Have you ever played a game of Three-Card Poker? The game is gaining popularity across the nation. It’s different than traditional poker and depends more on luck than strategy. For starters, each player receives three instead of the traditional five cards, so there are no Royal Flushes, Four of a Kinds, Full Houses, or Two Pairs.>There are two games in Three Card Poker:1) Pair Plus and 2) Ante & Play. Bet on one or on both games.>

Pair PlusThe Pair Plus bet is a straight payout depending onyour hand. The dealer’s hand isn’t an issue. You’redealt a good hand–you win.>Ante and PlayThe Ante and Play game is you against the dealer.First you’ll make your initial bet, the Ante. You’llbe dealt three cards and can decide to either playor fold. Keep in mind that if you fold, you not onlylose your Ante but also lose any Pair Plus bet youmade. So think carefully. If your Pair Plus bet wonanything, you shouldn’t fold. If you decide to play,

you must raise by placing what is called the Playbet, equal to the Ante. Now you play–no raises.The dealer must qualify with at least a Queen. If the dealer does not qualify, you win even money on the Ante and the Play bet is returned. If the dealerqualifies, here’s how the payout works: if you havea better hand, you win even money on both theAnte and Play bets; if you tie, both the Ante andPlay bets push; if the dealer beats your hand, kissboth the Ante and Play bets goodbye.>

BonusThen there’s the Bonus. If you have a Straight or higher, there is a bonus payout. This is paid whether or not the dealer qualifies. If the dealer qualifies, the play bet wins even money and the payout on the ante is based on the casino’s pay table. If the dealer does not qualify, the payout on the ante is the same as above but the play bet is returned. >Three-Card Poker’s popularity comes from the simplicity of the game. Since you are playing against the dealer, a camaraderie can develop amongst the players. Are you ready to play?
