Extractions: Art From the Pacific Northwest There's a place where wonderful forests of giant cedar trees grow. It is located at the Northwest coast of the United States and Canada - next to the Pacific Ocean. It's called the Pacific Northwest. The native peoples who live in the Pacific Northwest use their giant trees to make beautiful pieces art. The most well known type of art made by Pacific Northwest Natives is the totem pole. Totem poles are made for the purpose of telling a story! Some of the stories are about the family or chief who had the pole made. Other poles tell Native American legends. These legends are often about animals who did important things. If you'd like to learn about How Raven Stole the Sun and brought sunshine to the earth click here A "totem" is a symbol that each Native American family, or clan, adopts. Each clan uses a different animal as its totem. There is the Raven Clan, the Beaver Clan, and many others. The designs that we see on totem poles are often of clan animals. Totem poles are only made to tell stories, they are not worshiped. Reading the Totem Pole Story

Extractions: Creation stories teach that Native Americans have been where they are since the world was created. It is also thought that First Americans migrated from Siberia over the Bering Strait about 14,000 years ago, or perhaps even earlier. The land bridge was dry ground for several thousand years before the sea level rose again and stopped migration. The hunters would have followed the migrating herds of large mammals as they moved south. As the glaciers melted, the First Americans spread to the North American coasts and across the entire continent. Native Americans adapted to the climates and terrains in which they lived and used whatever natural resources were available. The arrival of the Europeans in the 1500's began a change in the lives of the Indian people that continued through the next centuries. Sometimes the changes were good. The horses brought by the Spanish made bison hunting much easier and safer. But Vikings, Spanish, English and French explorers, colonists and missionaries spread diseases, made slaves of the people, forced relocations, claimed ownership of natural resources and land, and tried to stamp out the native cultures. Some of the Indian people survived, but not without making drastic changes in their life styles.

Extractions: N ative American imagery often symbolizes complex philosophical ideas. The faces and creatures carved or modeled on these objects were intended as metaphorical expressions of spiritual concepts. I n Native American belief, the universe is a sphere having the sky world above and the watery underworld below, with the terrestrial disk of the earth dividing them. The earth is divided into four quadrants by the cardinal directions north, south, east, and west. The human task on earth is to keep the upper world and the underworld in balance. The sky above is the realm of the powerful Thunderbird, whose eyes shoot out bolts of lightning and whose beating wings create thunder. The earth is the mother and procreator of life. In the waters beneath the earth is the underworld, where spirits also dwell. There are many symbols associated with each realm which can be seen on Native American works of art. These symbols help make the sources of spiritual power accessible on earth. D uring the 19th century, American Indian women artists experimented with several different media and techniques when producing objects for both their own use and for exchange or sale. The introduction of European glass "seed" beads, silk ribbon, and cotton and wool cloth contributed to innovations in the design of shoulder bags, moccasins, and other elements of clothing. Older modes of artistic expression were adapted and combined with the new, conveying the vitality and dynamism of American Indian art and culture.

Nebraska StatePaper.com - Group Rallies For Whiteclay Bill
Short article about a rally to support passage of a bill that would prohibit liquor sales within 5 miles of native american reservations. The primary focus of debate is Whiteclay and the nearby Pine Ridge reservation in South Dakota.
http://nebraska.statepaper.com/vnews/display.v/ART/2002/02/25/3c7acd42bb53c

Extractions: LINCOLN - Nebraskans for Peace rallied Monday in support of a proposal to stop new liquor stores from opening in Whiteclay, a tiny Nebraska villlage that sells more than $3 million a year in beer to impoverished residents of the nearby Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. Frank LaMere, a member of the Winnebago tribe, spoke at the rally. Photo by Gail Folda The bill (LB1306) from Omaha Sen. Don Preister of Omaha would prohibit sales of alcohol within five miles of Indian country. The four Whiteclay stores, 200 feet from the reservation, would have their liquor licenses grandfathered in and wouldn't have to stop selling booze. There's nowhere in Whiteclay, nor on their reservation, where the Indian patrons of the stores can legally drink. "This is a political no win. It is a hornet's nest and it's festering and no one wants to touch it. We need to touch this problem. This is a case of lawlessness within our own border," said Carol McShane, president of Nebraskans for Peace.She spoke at a rally held in the State Capitol before a General Affairs Committee hearing on Preister's bill. The committee heard impassioned testimony from Indians affected by the rampant alcoholism on the reservation, but took no action on the measure. It doesn't have priority status, and is highly unlikely to be debated should it be advanced to the full Legislature by the committee.

Extractions: Visit California at Vacations-Abroad.com Sawol is a catalog for indigenous art. It focuses specifically on the cultures of Northern California. Within these pages you will find creation stories, history of each group, and pictures of the artists and their work. Take your time browsing and be sure and bookmark this location. We will always be adding new stories and artists. We will take you into a different culture and a different era. These are stories and history that in some instances has all but been obliterated. The perspective of these cultures is very different from the current American traditions. The government has been oppressive concerning their institutions. At times their languages, religious rites, and customs have been outlawed. However, the current political climate is changing and programs have been instituted to reintroduce their verbal and written languages. The cultural assimilation that has been enforced by the government has caused many of the groups to adopt modern standards for housing, clothing and other areas. So when you view the reservations they look like many other small towns in the US.
