STOP THE SILENCE. 🛑 On some reservations, Native women are murdered at more than ten times the national average. But our stolen relatives are not just statistics—they are mothers, daughters, sisters, aunties, friends, and so much more. Their lives matter, and their voices must be heard. NCAI is committed to advocating for the safety and well-being of Indigenous women and relatives, and #IndianCountry will not rest until justice is served and tribal communities are safe.

"The opportunity to learn about what actually works on the ground in Indian Country, and how governance supports Tribes in being successful was the sole reason I chose the @harvardkennedyschool . [...] I left my Chairwoman position when I was asked to be a part of the Obama White House as the Special Assistant for Native American Affairs. My Harvard background, and all the knowledge of understanding what success looks like for Indian Country, was an important part of being able to play a role at a national level with credibility."

The unmet public safety needs in #IndianCountry leave Indigenous women and relatives more vulnerable to violence, and tribal law enforcement without the resources necessary to pursue justice. The Parity for Tribal Law Enforcement Act (S. 2695/H.R. 4524) aims to address the crisis of #MMIWR by improving hiring and retention for tribal law enforcement. The voices of families, advocates, and Tribal Nations can not be silenced or ignored. Join NCAI in urging Congress to pass the Parity for Tribal Law Enforcement Act now!

https://amzn.to/49FrOAJ (Hardcover) https://amzn.to/3vYXtiK (Paperback) Despite its apparent isolation as an older region of the country, the Southeast provided a vital connecting link between the Black self-emancipation that occurred during the American Revolution and the growth of the Underground Railroad in the final years of the antebellum period. From the beginning of the revolutionary war to the eve of the First Seminole War in 1817, hundreds and eventually several thousand Africans and African Americans in Georgia, and to a lesser extent South Carolina, crossed the borders and boundaries that separated the Lowcountry from the British and Spanish in coastal Florida and from the Seminole and Creek people in the vast interior of the Southeast. Even in times of peace, there remained a steady flow of individuals moving south and southwest, reflecting the aspirations of a captive people. A Southern Underground Railroad constitutes a powerful counter-narrative in American history, a tale of how enslaved men and women found freedom and human dignity not in Jefferson’s “Empire of Liberty” but outside the expanding boundaries of the United States. It is a potent reminder of the strength of Black resistance in the post-revolutionary South and the ability of this community to influence the balance of power in a contested region. Paul M. Pressly’s research shows that their movement across borders was an integral part of the sustained struggle for dominance in the Southeast not only among the Great Powers but also among the many different racial, ethnic, and religious groups that inhabited the region and contended for control.

Justice for Yogi Milton “Yogi” McGarva was a member of the Pit River Tribe and is a victim of the Missing Murdered Indigenous Persons (MMIP) crisis in California. California Attorney General Rob Bonta announced last Wednesday that 52-year-old Jarrett Bleu Rucker, of Alturas, was sentenced to 26 years to life in prison for killing Milton “Yogi” McGarva. In a prosecution led by the California Department of Justice’s (DOJ) Criminal Division, a jury found Rucker guilty of first-degree murder on February 27, 2024, determining that Rucker stabbed McGarva to death in Modoc County on March 9, 2020. Prayers to Yogi’s family and friends, may we continue to advocate for our brothers and sisters taken too soon. #mmiw #mmiwg #mmiwg2s #mmiwp #mmip #mmiwawareness #mmiwgactionnow #mmiwgawareness #native #indigenous #justiceforourpeople #indiancountry #protectthesacred #yogi #canative

This Arbor Day, celebrate Tuwchalakw (Lenape for Flowering Dogwood) with us! This flowering tree is blossoming throughout the Eastern US, and these are also places Indigenous communities have had long relationships with this plant. Tuwchalakw has been recognized as a material to make tools and a source for healing – its medicinal properties are included in storytelling. In a Cherokee tale, an injured warrior loses consciousness during battle and awakens to find himself in a cave with his wounds covered by Ka na si tá (Cherokee for Flowering Dogwood) and Elderberry leaves. These plant medicines have been applied by Yunwi Tsundi (Cherokee for Little People). The Yunwi Tsundi care for the warrior and nurse him back to health, which includes making him tea from Ka na si tá and Elderberry leaves, until they’re able to take him back to his village. As this story illustrates, Flowering Dogwood has many healing properties. The Cherokee have used Ka na si tá bark to reduce fevers, treat headaches and muscle pains, soothe sore throats, and alleviate anxiety and mild depression. The leaves of Ka na si tá have also been used to treat skin infections and rashes. The Houma have boiled the root and bark of Tuwchalakw (Lenape) in a decoction to treat malaria. And, an infusion of the root bark has been used by the Rappahannock to relieve diarrhea and purify the blood. The wood, branches, and twigs of this tree have also been made into tool handles, arrow shafts, and toothbrush substitutes by the Cherokee. Need a reason to get outside or plant a tree? Arbor Day, is it! Today’s the perfect opportunity to add native plants *especially trees like Tuwchalakw* to your garden! #dogwood #floweringdogwood #floridadogwood #cornus #cornusflorida #cherokee #lenape #houma #rappahannock #traditionalecologicalknowledge #plantknowledge #tek #plantmedicine #arborday #hugatree #treehugger #stillhere #landback #indiancountry #community #nativepride #nativeamericanheritage #nativeamericanhistoryisamericanhistory #decolonizethisplace Sources: @usdagov @u.s.forestservice @delaware_tribe @thecherokeenation @usouthflorida, Native American Ethnobotany Database

Le Gange. Rien que l’évocation de ce nom renvoie à la ferveur hindoue et évoque de nombreuses images, parfois belles parfois effrayantes pour nous en France. C’est au lever du jour quand les pèlerins et les habitants commencent leur travail ou leurs prières, que la magie se révèle et qu’on ressent la mysticité de ce fleuve sacré. ❤️ The Ganges. Just the mention of this name refers to Hindu fervor and evokes many images, sometimes beautiful, sometimes frightening for us in France. It is at daybreak when pilgrims and locals begin their work or prayers that the magic is revealed and we feel the mysticism of this sacred river. ❤️ #gange #indianriver #indiancountry #indiancultures #culturelovers #traditional #pelerinage #pilgrims #mystic #travelphotography #travellandscape #indiantradition #beautifulindia #scenelife #sonyfrance #sonyalpha

Finally finished the mural on canvas “ Turtle Island”. After the great flood the world was covered by water. The sea otter with his craftiness swam down to gather soil from the bottom of the sea and place it on a sea turtle who came up and thus the Americas were created.

Last week capped off an amazing contract award season with the Bureau of Indian Affairs and Bureau of Indian Education as WBK celebrates securing an Architect-Engineer Single Award Task Order Contract to complete Educational Pre-Demolition Site Assessments nationwide! In 2021 and 2022, we supported our sister company @7genae when completing similar hazardous materials and pre-demolition site assessment work of nearly 300 buildings that spanned close to one million square feet across #IndianCountry. The team at WBK is proud to now be the sole prime contract holder to complete this deeply meaningful work to relieve BIA/BIE sites of unsafe and uninhabitable buildings and begin tackling task orders as they are issued. #FederalContracting #TribalEducation #SiteAssessment #DemolitionAssessment #SupportingTribes #Engineering #Architecture
