What ceromonies did the lumbee Indians have?
First, there are serious problems with the tribal and individualidentity of the Lumbee. These Congressmen and women are not credible experts experts in the area of genealogy some researchers whohave reached a difficult but clearconclusions concerning Lumbee identity that should notignore. Paul Heinegg, whose work has been recognized by The AmericanSociety of Genealogists, concludes that the Lumbee are ``an inventedNorth Carolina Indian tribe,'' and that many of thepersons who first self-identified as Indian after switching from mulatto or white in Robeson County, NorthCarolina, are not of Indian ancestry.Another indisputable expert in this area is Dr. Virginia DeMarce,who formerly served as Chair of the National Genealogical Associationand as an expert in this area at the Department of the Interior. Dr.DeMarce concludes from her genealogical studies that many Lumbeefamilies do not originate from the Robeson, North Carolina, area, butmigrated there from other places.in past testimony before the Congress, Department ofInterior officials also have raised serious concerns about Lumbeeindividual and tribal identity as well.This uncertain background may somewhat explain why the Lumbee havesought federal recognition as descending from four different tribesover the years: Cherokee, Siouan, Croatan, and now Cheraw at their own request..This leads to my second point. The cultural and political integrityof other tribes with living tribal languages andlong standing government-to-government relations with the United Statesis undermined when Congress acts arbitrarily in federal acknowledgementmatters, allowing politics and emotion to drive decision making, ratherthan facts about tribal identity. taxpayers have raisedthese identity concerns about the Lumbee since at least 1910, when theLumbees first claimed a Cherokee identity before Congress.
Is the gray wolf affected by pollution?
by Pam UherGrey Wolves to be removed from the Endangered Species list and I am angry. Wait the Western predator and vital link in the Western American ecological ffod chain has been given a reprieve!A News Release from Washington, D.C. from Rob Emanuel himself states:"Rahm Emanuel, White House Chief of Staff, issued a memorandum that directed federal agencies to withdraw all regulations that had not been published in the Federal Register so that they can be reviewed and approved by a department or agency head appointed by the President. Therefore, the final rule to delist the Gray Wolf Western Great Lakes DPS (which was announced on Jan. 14) was withdrawn to allow for further review. " U.S. Fish and Wildlife ServiceA battle has been won regarding the grey wolf but the 'war' to save endangered wildlife is far from over.Imperiled wildlife are the responsibility of all people and the wolf is in need of our help now. Why should we protect and defend the right to life of a predatory animal, such as the Grey Wolf?One - wolves are recognized as "a keystone species" critical in the bio-system for a balanced natural world....(Defenders of Wildlife). The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has conducted numerous studies at Yellowstone National Park that indicate wolves support a wide variety of other animal life. The reports show: "ravens, foxes, wolverines, coyotes, bald eagles, and even bears feed on the carcasses of animals killed by wolves. Antelope are swift, elk are alert, and mountain goats are adept at climbing steep cliffs, in part because of the long-term effects of wolf predation". It appears that wolves help "maintain the balance between these ungulates" (hoofed animals) and their food supply, making room for other herbivores like beavers and weasels to survive. The argument that wolves will kill off the elk and deer populations appears not to be substantiated by various studies and reports...in fact ecosystems where the wolf has been re-integrated and its population stabilized have strengthened (Yellowstone Project where the wolf was reintegrated has shown tremendous ecosystem benefits due to the wolf in the cycle of life).Two - wolves cannot defend themselves against anti-environmentalist legislators and greedy government officials, who would like to do away with the Endangered Species Protection laws, in order to pillage the land they roam for OIL, GAS, WOOD, COAL and other resources that will make the few richer and continue to set off ecological disasterThree - The12next page >>more options hideBelow are the top articles rated and ranked by Helium members on:Grey Wolves to be removed from the Endangered Species List1 of 3 by Paulette RedemskeIn light of the recent event of taking the gray wolf off of the endanger species list, it is likened to mass slaughter.read more2 of 3 by neile mcgrewThe US Fish and Wildlife Service announced in late January 2007 that it is removing the Western Great Lakes population theread more3 of 3 by Pam UherGrey Wolves to be removed from the Endangered Species list and I am angry.
