Native Americans, also known as American Indians, Indigenous
Americans and
other terms, are the
indigenous peoples of the
United States, except
Hawaii. There
are over 500
federally recognized tribes within the US, about half of which are
associated with
Indian reservations. The term "American Indian" excludes
Native Hawaiians and some
Alaska Natives, while Native Americans (as defined by the US Census) are
American Indians, plus Alaska Natives of all ethnicities. Native Hawaiians are
not counted as Native Americans by the US Census, instead being included in the
Census grouping of "Native
Hawaiian and other Pacific Islander".
The ancestors of modern Native Americans arrived in what is now the United
States at least 15,000 years ago, possibly much earlier, from Asia via
Beringia.
A vast variety of peoples, societies and cultures subsequently developed. Native
Americans were greatly affected by the
European colonization of the Americas, which began in 1492, and their
population declined precipitously mainly due to introduced
diseases as well as
warfare, territorial confiscation and
slavery. After the founding of the United States, many Native American
peoples were subjected to warfare,
removals and
one-sided treaties, and they continued to suffer from
discriminatory government policies into the 20th century. Since the 1960s,
Native American self-determination movements have resulted in changes to the
lives of Native Americans, though there are still many
contemporary issues faced by Native Americans. Today, there are over five
million Native Americans in the United States, 78% of whom live outside
reservations.
When the United States was created, established Native American tribes were
generally considered semi-independent nations, as they generally lived in
communities separate from British settlers. The federal government signed
treaties at a government-to-government level until the
Indian Appropriations Act of 1871 ended recognition of independent native
nations, and started treating them as "domestic dependent nations" subject to
federal law. This law did preserve the rights and privileges agreed to under the
treaties, including a large degree of
tribal sovereignty. For this reason, many (but not all) Native American
reservations are still independent of state law and actions of tribal citizens
on these reservations are subject only to tribal courts and federal law.
The
Indian Citizenship Act of 1924 granted U.S. citizenship to all Native
Americans born in the United States who had not yet obtained it. This emptied
the "Indians not taxed" category established by the
United States Constitution, allowed natives to vote in state and federal
elections, and extended the
Fourteenth Amendment protections granted to people "subject to the
jurisdiction" of the United States. However, some states continued to deny
Native Americans voting rights for several decades. Bill of Rights
protections do not apply to tribal governments, except for those mandated by the
Indian Civil Rights Act of 1968.

March 19: ‘Natives Against Trump’:
Protesters Block Road to Donald Trump Rally in Arizona
https://indiancountrymedianetwork.com/news/native-news/natives-against-trump-protesters-block-road-to-donald-trump-rally-in-arizona/
June 27:
For Indian Americans, hate finally has a name: Trump
https://splinternews.com/for-indian-americans-hate-finally-has-a-name-trump-1793857838
July 25: Donald Trump’s long history of
clashes with Native Americans ... Donald Trump claimed that Indian reservations
had fallen under mob control. He secretly paid for more than $1 million in ads
that portrayed members of a tribe in Upstate New York as cocaine traffickers and
career criminals. And he suggested in testimony and in media appearances that
dark-skinned Native Americans in Connecticut were faking their ancestry.
“I think I might have more Indian blood than a lot of the so-called Indians that
are trying to open up the reservations,” Trump said during a 1993 radio
interview with shock jock Don Imus.
Trump’s harsh rhetoric on Native Americans was part of his aggressive war on the
expanding Native American casino industry during the 1990s, which posed a threat
to his gambling empire. The racially tinged remarks and broad-brush
characterizations that Trump employed against Indian tribes for over a decade
provided an early glimpse of the kind of incendiary language that he would use
about racial and ethnic groups in the 2016 presidential campaign.

Donald Trump and Federal Indian Policy: ‘They Don’t Look Like Indians to Me’

August 17: Hillary Clinton ran campaign ads
in Navajo and met with tribal leaders in Iowa, Washington, Arizona and
California during the presidential primaries. Bernie Sanders met with 90 leaders
in total, a political record.
Eight indigenous candidates are running for Congress, up from two in 2014. Over
90 are running for state legislatures, again exceeding previous years.
But why is 2016 proving to be such a vibrant year for indigenous politics?
Many Native American commentators point to President Barack Obama's efforts to
improve relations with the country's tribal nations.
In the course of his two terms in office, he has settled hundreds of legal
disputes with indigenous communities, passed favourable legislation, like the
Indian
Health Care Improvement Act, and established an
annual
conference for tribal leaders to meet at the White House.
Ties between the federal government and many Native American communities, some
of whom were
denied the vote until the 1950s, have never been better.

October 31: Donald Trump wins support from
Native American coalition ... One more organization ... has announced their
support for Mr.
Trump. A newly formed
Native American Coalition is made up of members who hail from tribal
organizations in 15 states and include both grass-roots leaders and elected
officials.
“The daily flood of new federal regulations keep Indian Country from becoming
self-sufficient. Local tribal decisions, not federal bureaucrats, are the best
way to improve our communities. As both an enrolled member of Cherokee Nation
and a member of Congress, I will stand with
Donald Trump
in supporting tribal sovereignty and reining in federal over-regulation,” said
Rep. Markwayne Mullin, Oklahoma Republican and chairman of the group.

January 18: The U.S. Army on Wednesday began
the process of launching an environmental study of the Dakota Access pipeline
crossing in North Dakota, a move that has been challenged by the company
constructing the controversial project.

January 21: A Sioux tribal council on
Saturday formally asked hundreds of protesters to clear out of three camps near
its North Dakota reservation used to stage months of sometimes violent protests
against the proposed Dakota Access Pipeline.
The Standing Rock Sioux Tribe on Friday unanimously passed a resolution calling
for the camps to be dismantled, it said on its Facebook page on Saturday. The
tribe has been encouraging protesters to go home since the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers agreed to an environmental review of the $3.8 billion project in
December.
https://www.voanews.com/a/north-dakota-tribe-calls-on-protesters-to-disperse/3686349.html
January 24:
Donald Trump was sharply criticised by
Native Americans and climate change activists on Tuesday after he signed
executive orders to allow construction of the Dakota Access and Keystone XL oil
pipelines.
Both pipe projects
had been blocked by Barack Obama’s administration, partly because of
environmental concerns. But Trump
has questioned the science of climate change and campaigned on a promise to
expand energy infrastructure and create jobs.
The Sioux won a significant victory late last year when the US army corps of
engineers declined to allow construction of the pipeline under the lake, saying
alternative routes needed to be considered.
Trump: “We are going to renegotiate some of the terms. And then if they like,
we’ll see if we can get that pipeline built. A lot of jobs, 28,000 jobs. Great
construction jobs.”
Studies have suggested that most of the jobs would not be permanent, however. A
US state department study
estimated the number of long-term jobs at 50.

February 8: Trump’s Pipeline and America’s

May 1: [Andrew Jackson was the founder of
the
Democratic Party. Before being elected to the presidency, Jackson served in
Congress and gained fame as a general in the
United States Army. As president, Jackson sought to advance the rights of
the "common man" against a "corrupt aristocracy" and to preserve the Union.]
In 1830, Jackson signed the
Indian Removal Act, which
relocated most members of the
Native American tribes in the South to
Indian Territory (now
Oklahoma).
The relocation process resulted in widespread death and sickness amongst the
Indians. This, along with his relative support for
slavery, significantly damaged Jackson's reputation.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Jackson
May 1: Donald Trump gives a baffling,
extremely incorrect history lesson on Andrew Jackson ...
The fact that Jackson died 16 years before the Civil War apparently didn’t stop
him from being “really angry” about it.
https://thinkprogress.org/donald-trump-history-lesson-andrew-jackson-3738ac0c63a/
May 1: Trump: “It was during
the Revolution that Jackson first confronted and defied an arrogant elite,”
said Trump during remarks at the house. “Does that sound familiar to you? No
wonder why they keep talking about Trump and Jackson, Jackson and Trump.”
It’s a less flattering comparison than Trump seems to believe.
Jackson, in addition to being pro-slavery and a slave owner himself, was an
unrepentant genocidaire. His forced relocation of American Indians, known as the
“Trail of Tears,” killed thousands of people.

May 2: The Tohono O'odham Nation's land
resides in the southern part of Arizona and in the Mexican state of Sonora. A
portion of the Tohono O'odham's reservation — a 75-mile stretch of land near the
border — happens to be right in the middle of where President Donald Trump wants
to build the wall. Tribal officials and Tohono O'odham citizens are not in
favor, saying: "Over
my dead body," according to an Arizona Republic story.

May 25:
Native Americans’ health
threatened by denial of Medicaid expansion ... America has broken several
centuries worth of promises to its indigenous people. And we’re poised to do it
again.
The consequences of this broken promise will affect Native Americans like Mr. W,
who lives on the Navajo reservation in Arizona. At only 64 years of age, the
complications he has already suffered from his poorly controlled diabetes read
like a list from a medical textbook: loss of sensation in his feet and damage to
his kidneys and vision. He recently needed to have a toe amputated because of a
diabetes-related foot infection. Sadly, Mr. W’s story is all too common.
Native Americans are twice as likely to develop diabetes — and suffer from its
complications — as whites. Their life expectancy is more than four years shorter
and infant mortality is 60 percent higher. The list goes on. As doctors working
on the Navajo reservation, we see these disparities every day.
Getting more eligible Native Americans covered by Medicaid provides some
desperately needed relief for the overextended and underfunded Indian Health
Service and tribal health systems.

May 25: Tribes bash proposed Trump budget
cuts to Native Americans
Dozens of Native American tribes in six Western states expressed outrage

saying they would erase significant progress on child welfare and climate change

June 1: Crude oil is now flowing through the
Dakota Access Pipeline, despite months of protests against it by Native American

pipeline that had not yet been built.

November 5: Trump Urged Native Americans to
‘Just Do It’
“In late June, President Trump hosted a group of Native American tribal leaders
at the White House and urged them to ‘just do it’ and extract whatever they want
from the land they control,”
Axios
reports.
“The exchange turned out to be an unusually vivid window into the almost kingly
power that Trump sees himself as holding, and which he has begun describing with
increasing bluntness… The chiefs explained to Trump that there were regulatory
barriers preventing them from getting at their energy.”
Replied Trump: “But now it’s me. The government’s different now. Obama’s gone;
and we’re doing things differently here. So what I’m saying is, just do it.”

November 28: Trump secretly paid $1 million
in ads that portrayed Native Americans as cocaine traffickers ...
In the early 2000s, as the State of New York was considering expanding native
casinos in the Catskills, a number of ads from the “Institute for Law and
Safety” turned up on television and in print, which attacked the local tribe of
having ties to the mob and histories of violence and drugs. The ads tried to
link the Mohawk tribe with syringes and drug paraphernalia.
“Are these the neighbors we want?” the
ad said, warning of violent criminals allegedly intent on moving into the
area.
But the Institute for Law and Safety was a group funded by Trump’s casino
company and the ads were done by conservative activist Roger Stone — both tried
to hide their involvement and broke state law by not reporting the ad expenses
as a lobbying effort. Trump spent more than $1 million on the smear campaign
against the Mohawk tribe.

November 28: Only weeks into his presidency,
Trump wrote a memo of support for the Dakota Access pipeline, the progress of
which the Obama administration had halted after mass protests from Native
American groups. The groups argued that the pipeline violated a treaty signed
between those living on the Standing Rock Indian Reservation and the federal
government, and that it posed a threat to local water supplies.

the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, citing the recent Keystone
oil spill in South Dakota,

Access pipeline.
The Court ordered three different measures, all of which were requested by the
Standing Rock Sioux Tribe.

December 5: President
Donald Trump's rare move to shrink two large national monuments in Utah
triggered another round of outrage among Native American leaders who vowed to
unite and take the fight to court to preserve protections for lands they
consider sacred.
Environmental and conservation groups and a coalition of tribes joined the
battle Monday and began filing lawsuits that ensure that Trump's announcement is
far from the final chapter of the yearslong public lands battle. The court cases
are likely to drag on for years, maybe even into a new presidency.
Trump decided to reduce Bears Ears — created last December by President
Barack Obama — by about 85 percent and Grand Staircase-Escalante —
designated in 1996 by President
Bill Clinton — by nearly half. The moves earned him cheers from Republican
leaders in Utah who lobbied him to undo protections they considered overly
broad.

December 5: Native American reservations
cover just 2 percent of the United States, but they may contain about a fifth of
the nation’s oil and gas, along with vast coal reserves.
Now, a group of advisors to President-elect Donald Trump on Native American
issues wants to free those resources from what they call a suffocating federal
bureaucracy that holds title to 56 million acres of tribal lands,
The plan dovetails with Trump’s larger aim of slashing regulation to boost
energy production. It could deeply divide Native American leaders, who hold a
range of opinions on the proper balance between development and conservation.

December 11: Native American tribes call
Trump’s revamp of tribal advisory commission a ‘slap in the face’
The president’s proclamation on Bears Ears National Monument also contained a
little-known plan that changes the makeup of a tribal advisory commission for
the remote monument filled with canyons, plateaus, rivers and rust-colored rock
formations. It adds a county commissioner who is among the minority of Navajos
to support Republicans in peeling back protections for the land.
The new commissioner will have the same authority as the group’s five other
members, all representatives of tribes.

children write letters to Trump, asking for end to canyon mining
The Havasupai – the name means people of the blue-green waters – are one of the

Supai is nestled within Havasu Canyon, which is adjacent to Grand Canyon
National Park. The tiny village was established in 1880 and is accessible only
by foot, horse, mule or helicopter. Bracketed by red rock canyons, it sits on
the southern bank of the Colorado River, 56 miles from Canyon Mine atop the rim.
But Havasupai officials fear mine contaminants will seep into the groundwater,
harming their children and destroying the tribe’s way of life.

... at the time of the 14th Amendment, most Native Americans born on

citizenship or be considered as citizens if they were taxed and lived off a
reservation. It wasn’t until Congress passed the Indian Citizenship Act of 1924,
signed into law by President Coolidge, that the entire Native population became
citizens—some 92% were not at the time.

19: Congress weighs returning 12,000 acres to Leech Lake Band of
Ojibwe
The federal government would return 11,760 acres of land to the Leech Lake Band
of Ojibwe as part of a measure moving through Congress.
The measure reverses a land seizure by the U.S. Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA)
that began in the late 1940s, when the agency authorized the sale of tribal land
allotments to the U.S. Forest Service without the owners' consent. Sen. Tina
Smith, a sponsor, has said that the bill would restore land "that was wrongfully
taken from" the Ojibwe.
"A robust land base is the foundation of tribal sovereignty and
self-determination," Leech Lake chairman Faron Jackson Sr. told a panel of
lawmakers over the summer.
The measure passed the U.S. Senate, but awaits action in the U.S. House, where
Democratic U.S. Rep. Rick Nolan has led the effort. The lower chamber has until
the end of the year to act.
