Ein genauerer Blick auf die ersten puritanischen Kolonien Neuenglands, Plymouth, Massachusetts oder Connecticut, relativiert dieses Urteil. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-size:-0;">Ein Massaker folgte dem anderen; indianische Frauen und Kinder wurden ermordet oder mit ihren Männern lebendig in ihren Hütten verbrannt. Um 1680 lebten noch rund 15000 Indianer im zentralen und südlichen Teil der Neuenglandstaaten“, schrieb einst Wolfgang Lindig zum Verlauf des sogenannten King Philip’s War (der Kampf zwischen Siedlern und Ureinwohnern von 1675/76 ist benannt nach deren wichtigstem Anführer Metacom, den die Engländer King Philip nannten). Das Zitat vermittelt den Eindruck, die Kämpfe zwischen Einheimischen und Zuwanderern seien für den Bevölkerungsrückgang der Ureinwohner verantwortlich gewesen. Dies trifft nicht zu. Schon die eingeschleppten Krankheiten reduzierten die einheimische Bevölkerung um etwa 85 bis 90 Prozent. Viele Indianer starben, ohne je einen Europäer gesehen zu haben.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.damals.de/sixcms/detail.php?id=178614&template_id=1052&amp;query_id=544">Artikel lesen</a><br /></span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5443420823732486533-4118795836171330434?l=indianernews.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>indianernoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5443420823732486533.post-70088235165609500622007-05-23T08:47:00.000+02:002007-05-23T08:48:54.154+02:00myespn.go.com - 23.05.07<br /><br /><p _extended="true">Author and poet Sherman Alexie is best known for his writing (in a whole bunch of <a href="http://www.fallsapart.com/books.html" target="_blank" shape="rect" _extended="true">books</a> and <a href="http://www.fallsapart.com/movies.html" target="_blank" shape="rect" _extended="true">movies</a>) about the contemporary Native American experience.

That’s just one of the conclusions in a new book titled “Native Vote,” co-authored by Daniel McCool, Susan Olson and Jennifer Robinson of the University of Utah.<br /><br />American Indians were not even considered citizens until they were granted citizenship in 1924. The right to vote came later in most Western states, and as late as the 1950s the state of Utah was trying to prevent Indian people from voting. Today, the situation has changed dramatically. Beginning in the late 1970s, Indians began to take advantage of the federal Voting Rights Act of 1965 and bring litigation to challenge voting discrimination in local and state elections. Many of these suits succeeded through either settlements or trials in reducing barriers to electoral participation. Then, in the 1990s, several Indian organizations made a systematic effort to register American Indians and get them to the polls in ever-increasing numbers.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.newswise.com/articles/view/530230/">Artikel lesen</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5443420823732486533-7493595244000686953?l=indianernews.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>indianernoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5443420823732486533.post-56498168612895608992007-05-23T08:27:00.000+02:002007-05-23T08:29:17.426+02:00idw-online.de - 23.05.07<br /><br />Während sich bei den meisten Menschen die Liebe zu Indianern und dem Wilden Westen mit dem Tod Winnetous erschöpft, hat sie bei Prof. Dr. Karl Markus Kreis von der Fachhochschule Dortmund ein Leben lang gehalten. Seit beinahe einem Jahrzehnt bestimmt das Leben der Ureinwohner Amerikas die Forschungsarbeit des Politikwissenschaftlers aus dem Fachbereich Angewandte Sozialwissenschaften. Im Mittelpunkt steht dabei jedoch nicht das idealisierte Bild der edlen "Rothäute", sondern der Einblick in die deutschamerikanische Geschichte.<br /><br />Im Bochumer Projektverlag ist jetzt unter dem Titel "Schulen für die Sioux-Indianer. Deutsche Dokumente aus den katholischen Missionen in South Dakota 1884 - 1932"(ISBN 978-3-89733-163-1 <a href="www.pickitisbn:978-3-89733-163-1"><img title="Titel anhand dieser ISBN in Citavi-Projekt übernehmen" style="border: 0px none ;" src="http://www.citavi.com/marctest/FindIt.bmp" /></a>) ein Buch erschienen, das die Forschungsergebnisse der Jahre 2003/04 zusammenfasst. Wie schon in seinem ersten Buch - "Rothäute, Schwarzröcke und heilige Frauen" - legt Karl Markus Kreis auch hier den Fokus auf die Missionierungs-Arbeit der Jesuiten und Franziskanerinnen, die im 19. Jahrhundert an den ersten Schulen in den Sioux-Reservaten beschäftigt waren.<br /><br /><a href="http://idw-online.de/pages/de/news209810">Artikel lesen</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5443420823732486533-5649816861289560899?l=indianernews.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>indianernoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5443420823732486533.post-85783820210035690912007-05-21T08:56:00.000+02:002007-05-21T08:57:25.536+02:00www.boston.com - 21.05.07<br /><br /><p>The teenage American Indian protagonist of "Flight," known as "Zits" for obvious adolescent reasons, has spent his young life shuttling between foster care and juvenile detention, though we can see he has a sense of humor about it. During a brief run-in with the cops, he tells us, he is put in a holding cell "with a black kid and a white kid and a Chinese kid. We're the United Nations of juvenile delinquents."</p> <p>Out on the streets again, lonely, rebellious Zits is befriended by one of his former cellmates, a charismatic sociopath with a hoard of weapons, looking for a disciple to help use them. Without any adult to guide him, Zits needs to find an identity and ethical grounding of his own -- immediately if not sooner. On cue the novel jumps into a shape-shifting, time-traveling fourth dimension, sweeping Zits along on a character-forming roller-coaster ride through the bad-trip theme park of American history.</p> <p>Sherman Alexie, who has been called the Native American James Baldwin, writes with anger, humor, raw inventiveness, and defiant pride. We're pretty sure that Zits is too cool a kid to be headed for a tragic ending, no matter how postmodern, but it's touch and go for a while.</p><p><a href="http://www.boston.com/ae/books/articles/2007/05/20/short_takes_boston_globe/">Artikel lesen</a><br /></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5443420823732486533-8578382021003569091?l=indianernews.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>indianernoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5443420823732486533.post-9469206827289754492007-05-21T08:53:00.000+02:002007-05-21T08:55:04.737+02:00www.boston.com - 21.05.07<br /><br />The formal wear, parquet dance floor, and DJ implied a gala, but the drum circle of four men clad in colorful Native American dress was one of many signs that this event was traditional in a different way.<br />More than 150 people from native tribes across the nation came together last weekend at the Seaport World Trade Center for a $100-a-plate gala for the North American Indian Center of Boston.

According to the report, "Maze of Injustice," more than one in three Native American women will be raped at some point in their lives. What's more, Native American women are nearly three times more likely to be victims of rape and sexual assault than white women in the United States. </p> <p>Writing for the<em> <a href="http://www.progressive.org/node/4836" target="_blank">Progressive</a></em>, Rita Pyrillis, a member of the Cheyenne River Sioux tribe, notes that, sadly, these statistics aren't even a full accounting of the number of victims. Confronted with a "chronically understaffed and underfunded justice and law enforcement system and its confusing jurisdictional lines," victims of sexual violence lack for both protection and advocacy. "Not surprisingly, most Indian women never report sexual assaults," Pyrillis writes.

Das war am 14. Mai, also Montag vor 400 Jahren. Ein Grund für den Besuch der Queen in ihrer früheren Kolonie. Der Ort war gewählt worden, weil er weit genug von der altlantischen Küste entfernt war, um Kontakte und Konflikte mit der Flotte der Hauptkonkurrenten, den Spaniern zu vermeiden. Dafür kam es zu kriegerischen Auseinandersetzungen mit den Indianern. <br /><br />Jens Borchers hat die inzenierte Geschichte im Colonial National Historical Park besucht:<br /></p> <p>Zunächst aber stand die Erfolgsgeschichte von Jamestown und dem Umgebung nicht fest. Die Kolonisten wurden durch Hunger dezimiert. Erst als John Rolfe eingetroffen war, der wildwachsenden Tabak entdeckte ( zu Hause in England ein Luxus), und erst als er mit Pocahontas die Tochter eines Indianer-Häuptlings heiratete, konnte der Aufschwung beginnen. <a href="http://www.inforadio.de/static/media/real/6QS7N0JX_0CF7E189324E4CF5A3A7DD264E3251CC.RAM"><br /></a></p><p><a href="http://www.inforadio.de/static/media/real/6QS7N0JX_0CF7E189324E4CF5A3A7DD264E3251CC.RAM">Sendung hören</a><br /></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5443420823732486533-4561179583412361457?l=indianernews.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>indianernoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5443420823732486533.post-63489004270495972042007-05-11T23:59:00.001+02:002007-05-11T23:59:56.483+02:00The Tomah Journal - 11.05.07<br /><br />President Wade Blackdeer served the Tomah City Council a resolution stating that the Ho-Chunk Nation wishes to preserve the Annex building at 508 Superior Ave. during Tuesday night’s meeting.

Außerdem gibt es vor Ort keine Zuschauer, gekämpft wird mitten in der Wüste Amerikas.<br /><a href="http://www.sportnews-online.de/content/view/4021/1/"><br />Artikel lesen</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5443420823732486533-9120334975554973654?l=indianernews.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>indianernoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5443420823732486533.post-13261801146852739172007-05-11T08:36:00.000+02:002007-05-11T08:37:13.087+02:00timesnews - 11.05.07<br /><br /><p>Only Tennessee lawmakers would have the power to ban school mascots and symbols featuring American Indians under legislation approved by the state Senate on Thursday.</p> <p>The bill passed by senators on a 22-5 vote would prohibit agencies like the Tennessee Secondary School Athletic Association from banning schools having teams with American Indian symbols and names.</p> <p>"It belongs in the citizens' elected arena. ...

Die Autorin Antje Babendererde, 1963 in Jena geboren, arbeitet mit ihren Büchern schon seit mehr als zehn Jahren daran, dass sich wenigstens bei größeren Kindern diese Vorstellung der Realität annähert. Sie schreibt von den amerikanischen Ureinwohnern in den Reservaten, von jungen Leuten, die aus der Tradition ausbrechen wollen und sich dennoch verantwortlich fühlen für ihr Volk. Welche Wirkung manche ihrer Legenden bis heute haben, davon erzählt Babendererdes neuestes Buch: "Zweiherz". Bei den Navajo-Indianern gilt der Kojote Zweiherz - ein Geschöpf halb Tier, halb Mensch - als der ewige Unruhestifter unter den Menschen. Der scheint nun also auch zwischen Kaye und Will zu spuken.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.berlinonline.de/berliner-zeitung/print/feuilleton/652577.html">Artikel lesen</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5443420823732486533-4444233957216714836?l=indianernews.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>indianernoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5443420823732486533.post-48599955514146218622007-05-09T09:52:00.000+02:002007-05-09T09:53:38.533+02:00The News Leader - 09.05.07<br /><br /><span class="bodytext"><p>WASHINGTON, D.C. – By a voice vote, the U.S. House of Representatives approved legislation (H.R. 1294), authored by Rep.

Jason Johnson with a memorial plaque indicating Sky City is now an historical preservation site, which will allow additional funding for preservation of historical artifacts and cultural items. Johnson then presented Moe with a traditional Acoma blanket and an Acoma pot, representing the tribe's pledge to honor its membership in the National Trust. Moe promptly shouldered the blanket saying he was cold, to the excited approval and much applause from those attending the ceremony.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.gallupindependent.com/2007/may/050707jt_spcldayacoma.html">Artikel lesen</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5443420823732486533-4302987573238109767?l=indianernews.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>indianernoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5443420823732486533.post-79135874793726230502007-05-08T15:38:00.000+02:002007-05-08T15:40:20.244+02:00n-tv - 08.05.06<br /><br />Die Vereinigten Staaten gedenken in diesen Tagen mit Pomp und Prominenz der Gründung von Jamestown in Virginia vor 400 Jahren.

Complaints that this leads to fish populations being harmed by "unethical" practices may be unfounded, however. The two groups' values turn out to be closer than most sport fishers realise.<br /><br /><a href="http://environment.newscientist.com/article/dn11792-native-american-fishing-practises-not-unethical.html">Artikel lesen</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5443420823732486533-5360126267673289894?l=indianernews.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>indianernoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5443420823732486533.post-47342424022343876512007-05-07T21:39:00.000+02:002007-05-07T21:41:21.534+02:00Openpr.de /07.05.07/14:59<br /><br />Der populäre amerikanische Historiker Howard Zinn betrat mit seiner „People’s History“ Neuland in der Geschichtsschreibung der Vereinigten Staaten.

Vor 400 Jahren begann die Kolonialisierung Nordamerikas- mit der Einführung von Mikroorganismen und Insekten.<p>Hamburg (ots) - Vor 400 Jahren begannen die Engländer die Ostküste<span style="font-family:monospace;"> </span>der USA zu besiedeln. Neueste Forschungen weisen nach, dass die von den Siedlern mitgeführten Insekten, Pflanzen und Mikroorganismen für den Erfolg der Kolonialisierung entscheidend waren. Lebewesen, die bis zur Ankunft der Europäer nicht in Nordamerika existiert hatten, veränderten die Landschaft des Kontinents erheblich. So wurden die Indianer geschwächt - was für die Siedler die Landnahme erleichterte. Das berichtet NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC DEUTSCHLAND in der Titelgeschichte der Mai-Ausgabe (EVT 27.4.2007).<a href="http://www.presseportal.de/story.htx?nr=977184"> </a></p><p><a href="http://www.presseportal.de/story.htx?nr=977184">Artikel lesen<br /></a></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5443420823732486533-1331639996454763200?l=indianernews.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>indianernoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5443420823732486533.post-19466764518525478912007-05-07T10:43:00.000+02:002007-05-07T11:26:11.164+02:00<div class="byline">VON GERHARD NOWAK, 29.04.07, 20:43h<br /><br /></div><!--Bildbox--><!--/Bildbox-->Sein Name verrät indianische Abstammung: De May.
