As some of you know I work with the Honor Your Children's fund for the Northern Cheyenne children. HYS has some beautiful items really great for mother's day and father's day. I have several of the items and as I tell people all I have to is wear them and it sells it. The pictures do not do the items justice. I know it is late for Mothers day but one could give a card explaining their gift will be coming. I'm including a note from HYS and info where you can look at the items. The fund was started by Manuel Redwoman and his sister Anne several years ago. They are the most trustworthy of people. Manuel Redwoman is in prison for killing a repeat child molester who went after a young relation of his. You may want to read about Manuel while your at the site. He is one of the most honorable and respectful men I know. Dodie
Greetings,
Mother's Day is fast approaching, and Father's Day is not very far :)

Schedule subject to change without notice. Updated 04/30/05
POD Productions first event debuted on July 11- 13, 2003 at the America West Arena in Phoenix, Arizona with Nike and Phoenix Suns as presenting sponsors. The vision of NABI tournament was to provide a spark that ignited Native American youth to set their sights higher, make the most of their potential and reach their dreams through sports and educational opportunities. The tournament featured 24 teams from across the U.S. and Canada.
Many of Indian Country's most influential people spoke and inspired the young people participating in the tournament. "The coaches at Haskell (Indian College) and the people who I met through basketball saved my life" said Ernie Stevens, chairman National Indian Gaming Association. Tex Hall, President, National Congress of American Indians: Shared, "I came from an era where we jumped in a beat-up car and played on worthless Courts. This tournament should show you there are people willing to invest in you" (Jessie Stomski, Native Voice)
Sam McCracken became the Manager of Native American Business at Nike in the year 2000, a position he created with the support of the "powers that be" at the sports apparel giant. As McCracken explains, "My position here at Nike is to be a face of the community. It needs a real person that can make real connections. One of my goals is to heighten the awareness of Native Americans in sports, to support Native athletes." (Lise Balk King and Jessie Stomski, Native Voice)
NABI's goal of receiving national attention from colleges that can provide scholarship opportunities to the Native Americans youth who participated was reached in our inaugural year. The tournament also positioned it self as being a quality national recognized Native American tournament in which youth and tribes have a desire to be part of in years to come. With the goal of being NCAA sanctioned by 2005. http://discover.npr.org/features/feature.jhtml?wfId=1385520
In addition, the desire of the team at POD Productions is to inspire and meet the needs of Native American youth by not only being a part of an exciting event that gives youth an opportunity to showcase their skills and provide educational opportunities but, by being part of their future and to build an on going relationship that encourages and supports their dreams.Because of this desire, the NABI Foundation was founded. The Foundation will help with the needs of Native American athletes by establishing a college mentoring program to encourage Native American youth to further their education. POD Productions goal is to grow The NABI Foundation, governed by Native leaders, into a national Foundation within our first five years.
NABI will be the catalyst to catapult Native athletes into the college level of play and with the NABI Foundation, work with colleges to create mentor programs to help the students deal with the stresses of leaving the reservations with the hopes of creating life time career opportunities and Native Americans athletes having a consistent presence in the NBA and other pro sports.

Dear Friends and Colleagues,
Lane Community College, Eugene OR, is seeking scholars of Northwest
Indian
languages to be considered for an Endowed Chair position. If you know
of
someone, please contact Jerry Hall and Susan Carkin (contact
information
below).
See the letter below from Jerry Hall for more explanation. Thanks for
sharing this information with your networks.
Anselmo
----------
I would like to announce some very good news for American Indian
languages in Oregon and here at Lane Community College, and I would
like
to ask of you a favor.
The accompanying letter (attached and also included in this email,
below) announces an endowed position to initiate an American Indian
Languages curriculum here at LCC. Please read and share this letter
and
if you can, please submit nominations for this endowed position.
Jerry D. Hall, Coordinator
Dear Friends,
Lane Community College is pleased to announce an endowed position to
initiate an American Indian Languages curriculum. As you might know,
Lane has been making plans for several years to offer students the
opportunity to study Native languages. The recent anonymous gift of
funds for an endowed chair will finally make this possible. The
endowment will rotate among the college's instructional divisions on a
regular basis and the first Endowed Chair position will be in American
Indian Languages.
President Mary Spilde recently announced that for 2005-06 the college's
first Endowed Chair will be bestowed on a recognized scholar of Native
languages with an emphasis on the Northwest. The Chair position will
oversee the development and implementation of a course of study for 100
and 200 level language classes in the Division of Language, Literature
and
Communication. In addition, the Chair will join others in leading LCC
toward a form of Native American Studies certification and maintain
contact with tribal and campus communities throughout the area.
At their April 2005 meeting, LCC's Board of Education approved the
offering of an American Indian Language course of study to be offered
beginning Fall 2005 with the following goals: (1) support the
development of a course of instruction in a Northwest Indian language;
(2) offer a sequence of classes at both 100 and 200 levels, and (3)
establish articulation with the Oregon University System and with
tribal
benchmarks for student achievement and assessment. The Endowed Chair
will work closely with the instructor of these classes to meet these
goals.
Because of the timeline for the position, details of the role and job
description will be negotiated by the invited Chair and the college.
You can help us with this process, if you would grant us a favor. We
hope you will let us know of any scholars of Northwest Indian languages
whom you could recommend. We would also welcome a brief comment about
your nominees' qualifications. Based on the nominations received, the
American Indian Languages Committee will send invitations to selected
candidates to apply for the Endowed Chair position. The committee
hopes
to make final recommendations by the end of spring term.
You can also help us by sharing this good news with your community.
Please respond soon by contacting any AIL Committee member, or send
information to:

Buffalo Field Campaign
National Museum of the American Indian Literacy in Indigenous Communities by L. David van Broekhuizen, Ph.D. (2000) Essay on the Zuni World View
Once when Coyote was visiting various camps, he and Bobcat heard about
a
white man who was making some whiskey. They went together to the man's
house
and managed to steal some, and after they had run a short distance with
it,
they stopped to drink.
Then Coyote said, "My cousin, I feel so good, I'd like to holler!"
"No, we're still close to those white men," Bobcat said. "I won't
holler
loud, cousin," Coyote said. They kept arguing and drinking. Finally
Bobcat
said, "All right then, holler quietly."
Coyote intended to holler softly, but before he knew it he got carried
away
and was hollering as loud as he could. Now the white men heard the
noise and
headed right toward him. Bobcat had enough whiskey in him to feel good,
but
Coyote was really drunk. When the white men surrounded them Bobcat got
up
and sailed over the nearest man with one jump. In a second jump he
leaped
over all the rest and got away. So they arrested Coyote and took him in
chains to the town jail.
Later on, Bobcat used to visit Coyote from time to time, and once they
arrested Bobcat and had them both locked up for quite a while. One day
the
two prisoners watched some white men breaking horses in front of the
jail.
There was one horse that no one could get close to, and Coyote boasted,
"I
could saddle that horse right away." The prison guard told the men what
Coyote had said, and they decided to let him out and see what he could
do.
Now Coyote had horse power, and when he had used it with the horse, it
wasn't wild any more. He got on and rode it around and then thought he
would
have some fun. The horse balked, and though he kicked it gently with
his
heel, it wouldn't move. Coyote told the white people to put on a fancy
saddle. They bought out a brand new one with taps and saddle bags and
everything on it, just as he wanted. He put it on the animal, remounted
and
kicked it, but gently, so it wouldn't move.
"This horse is thinking about a nice white bridle and bits and lines,
all
covered with silver," said Coyote. Actually the horse was ready to go,
but
Coyote kept holding him in. The men brought a fine bridle and put it on
the
horse. Then Coyote dismounted the horse and said, "I want you to fill
the
saddle bags with crackers and cheese; that's what the horse wants.
Also, I
have to wear a good white shirt and vest, and a big show hat, and a
pair of
white- handled pistols in a belt. That's what the horse likes. And good
silver spurs: the horse wants these also." They brought all the finery
for
Coyote and filled the saddle bags.
Now Coyote got on the horse. Ahead by the gate were some American
soldiers.
He kicked the horse hard and started for the soldiers at a gallop,
making it
look as if the horse were running away with him. The soldiers moved
back,
and he and the horse tore through the gate and disappeared. Later
Coyote sat
down by a spring under a walnut tree, thinking about the soldiers that
he
knew were after him. He swept the ground clean under the tree and
strung his
money up on its branches. Pretty soon the soldiers came along, and
Coyote
said, "I'm going to tell you about this tree. Money grows on it and I
want
to sell it. Want to buy?" The soldiers were interested, and Coyote told
them, "It takes a day for the money to grow and ripen. Today's crop is
mine,
but tomorrow it's all yours. I'll sell you this fine tree for all your
pack
mules."
Coyote was always thinking about eating, and he hoped the packs held
food.
The soldiers agreed to the terms, and Coyote got a big rock and threw
it
against the trunk. Most of the money fell to the ground. "See, it only
ripens at noon," he said. "You have to hit it just at noon." He whacked
the
tree again, and the rest of the money dropped out. Now it was all on
the
ground, and the white men helped him pick it up and put it in sacks.
They
turned all their pack mules over, and he started off.
Coyote traveled for the rest of the day and all night, until he was in
another country. Meanwhile the soldiers camped under the walnut tree
waiting
for noon. Then the officer told the soldiers to hit the tree, and they
pounded it hard. When no money fell out, the officer ordered it chopped
down, cut into lengths, and split up, in case the money was inside. No
matter what they did, they couldn't find even five cents. That night
one of
Coyote's mules got hungry and started to bray. Irritated at the noise,
he
killed every mule that brayed, until at last he had killed them all. So
when
he came to a white man's house, he bought a burro from him.
Now Coyote was always thinking about how he could swindle someone, and
the
burro gave him another idea. Returning to his old home in the mountain,
he
put a lot of money up the burro's rear end, then kicked the animal in
the
belly so that it expelled all the money. He tried it again, and it
worked as
before. "This burro is going to make me lots of money," he thought.
Coyote
put his money in the burro's rear end and started for town, where he
went to
the big man in charge. "Look at this wonderful burro! His excrement is
money, and it comes out of him every day." Coyote always talked like a
Chiricahua.
"Let's see him do it," the head man said. "All right, see for yourself.
The
first money that comes out is mine, but after that it's all yours."
Coyote
started kicking the burro in the belly, and his money fell out. He
gathered
it up. "Now it's yours," he said. "Tomorrow at the same time, he'll do
it
again." They paid him lots of money, and he went on his way. On the
following day when the time came, the white men brought the burro out
and
kicked him. He merely broke wind. They kicked him all day till evening,
the
said, "We might just as well kill this burro and look inside him." So
they
cut him open, but there wasn't a sign of money inside.

Coyote Finishes His Work - Nez Perce
From the very beginning. Coyote was traveling around all over the
earth. He
did many wonderful things when he went along. He killed the monsters
and the
evil spirits that preyed on the people. He made the Indians, and put
them
out in tribes all over the world because Old Man Above wanted the earth
to
be inhabited all over, not just in one or two places.
He gave all the people different names and taught them different
languages.
This is why Indians live all over the country now and speak in
different
ways.
He taught the people how to eat and how to hunt the buffalo and catch
eagles. He taught them what roots to eat and how to make a good lodge
and
what to wear. He taught them how to dance. Sometimes he made mistakes,
and
even though he was wise and powerful, he did many foolish things. But
that
was his way.
Coyote liked to play tricks. He thought about himself all the time, and
told
everyone he was a great warrior, but he was not. Sometimes he would go
too
far with some trick and get someone killed. Other times, he would have
a
trick played on himself by someone else. He got killed this way so many
times that Fox and the birds got tired of bringing him back to life.
Another
way he got in trouble was trying to do what someone else did. This is
how he
came to be called the Imitator.
Coyote was ugly too. The girls did not like him. But he was smart. He
could
change himself around and trick the women. Coyote got the girls when he
wanted.
One time. Coyote had done everything he could think of and was
traveling
from one place to another place, looking for other things that needed
to be
done. Old Man saw him going along and said to himself, "Coyote has now
done
almost everything he is capable of doing. His work is almost done. It
is
time to bring him back to the place where he started."
So Great Spirit came down and traveled in the shape of an old man. He
met
Coyote. Coyote said, "I am Coyote. Who are you?"
Old Man said, "I am Chief of the earth. It was I who sent you to set
the
world right."
"No," Coyote said, "You never sent me. I don't know you. If you are the
Chief, take that lake over there and move it to the side of that
mountain."
"No. If you are Coyote, let me see you do it."
Coyote did it.
"Now, move it back."
Coyote tried, but he could not do it. He thought this was strange. He
tried
again, but he could not do it.
Chief moved the lake back.
Coyote said, "Now I know you are the Chief."
Old Man said, "Your work is finished, Coyote. You have traveled far and
done
much good. Now you will go to where I have prepared a home for you."
Then Coyote disappeared. Now no one knows where he is anymore.
Old Man got ready to leave, too. He said to the Indians, "I will send
messages to the earth by the spirits of the people who reach me but
whose
time to die has not yet come. They will carry messages to you from time
to
time. When their spirits come back into their bodies, they will revive
and
tell you their experiences.
"Coyote and myself, we will not be seen again until Earth-woman is very
old.
Then we shall return to earth, for it will require a change by that
time.
Coyote will come along first, and when you see him you will know I am
coming. When I come along, all the spirits of the dead will be with me.
There will be no more Other Side Camp. All the people will live
together.
Earth mother will go back to her first shape and live as a mother among
her
children. Then things will be made right."
Now they are waiting for Coyote.

Literacy in first languages in indigenous communities is a complex
topic that generates lively discussion. This research synthesis
explores the notions of national, mother-tongue, multiple, and
biliteracies. It presents important information pertaining to
threatened languages, language shift, and language loss. Examples of
culturally relevant uses of literacy in indigenous communities and
issues related to first-language literacy instruction are also
provided.
Excerpt(Complete article is available in PDF)
Cushing also cited an
incidence where he showed a pole that accompanies a theodolite to an old Zuni
man and asked him what he thought the name of it was. In response the old man inquired as to the
use
of the
item. After briefly describing the
implementation of the device the old man provided a rather lengthy
sentence-word that Cushing translated as "heights of the world progressively
measuring stick". The next day Cushing
took the pole to the extreme corner of the pueblo and began "to flourish it
around" until a middle-aged man relented to curiosity and asked what it
was. Cushing then provided the Zuni
name he had learned the day before and the man promptly requested, "Can they
actually tell how far up and down journeying the world is?"
