  1. Ep 432 "It's About Time"

    22 JUIN

    Ep 432 "It's About Time"

    Episode Description: It is rare in America to see a wealthy, white male convicted of a Felony crime. But that rarity disappeared recently for Donald Trump.  Jurors convicted Trump on 34 counts of falsification of business records in the first degree, which is a felony in New York. Trump was a resident of New York most of his life, and generated wealth dealing in real estate, among many other business ventures.  Trump is an individual who conned many Americans into voting for him in 2016 to become America’s 45th President.  In this episode of Native Opinion, we provide our opinion about the conviction, expressing that "It's about time." Also in this episode: We provide some perspective on definitions of the terms "Co-Management" and "Co-Stewardship" in Indian country. Usually attributed to land, we look at the positives and negatives to the application of these terms in partnerships with the United States federal government. Racism in America Segment: 1.) A Federal Senator bars the appointment of America's first Native American Federal Judge  2.) A law suit waged by three men of color against American Airlines.

    Episode 428 “Protecting Our Children’s Indigenous Identity…”

    In this Episode: The Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act, or “NAGPRA” Provides for the ownership or control of Native American cultural items (human remains and objects) excavated or discovered on Federal or tribal lands back to Federally recognized tribes. Among several aspects of the act, it directs Federal agencies and museums with possession or control over holdings or collections of Native American human remains and funerary objects to inventory them, identify their geographic and cultural affiliation, and notify the affected Indian tribes or Native Hawaiian organization to begin the established process of returning them to tribes. Some institutions and states have been slow, even resistant to comply with this law. We look deeper into the responsibilities of institutions to comply with this law. Also… A landmark law case before the Supreme Court Of The United States (SCOTUS) handed down a major decision in favor of Native American tribes and parents by keeping in place a 40 year federal law known as the Indian Child Welfare Act. (or ICWA) We deconstruct this lawsuit and look into the reasons behind this very important case for Indian Country. And finally… American healthcare has become corporatized, and there have been some very serious consequences as a result of what has become risky business for patients and even medical providers across the country. We provide some examples of these changes and ask very important questions. Contact The show! E-mail: hosts@nativeopinion.com Call Us: 860-800-5595
