This truth is no longer in dispute now that modern science has caught up with what Native collective knowledge has understood for more than a hundred years. The question that remains is not whether intergenerational trauma exists, but specifically what causes it, what it is and what to do about it. These are questions addressed in this perceptive, insightful Free Report from Indian Country Media Network, Intergenerational Trauma: Understanding Natives’ Inherited Pain, which you can download right now...

Osiyo Chief:                Osiyo -  When the U.S. Surgeon General visited Oklahoma last year, he declared the “prescription opioid epidemic that is sweeping across the U.S. has hit Indian Country particularly hard.” This is absolutely felt in the Cherokee Nation, where opioid-related overdoses have more than doubled in recent years and more Cherokee Nation citizens suffer from opioid addiction.   This epidemic has affected every aspect of our society: our economy, our hospitals, our schools and our homes. Our children are especially threatened by the epidemic, putting the future of the Cherokee Nation at risk.    When I was elected Principal Chief of the Cherokee Nation, I made a commitment to protect the health and welfare of our nearly 350,000 citizens about half of whom live inside our tribal boundaries in northeast Oklahoma. We are made up of many communities and we feel the impacts of the opioid epidemic every day, as we ...

Russia ... human trafficking deaths ... Afghanistan bombing ... terror suspect moved ... HIV Monday, July 24, 2017 View this email in your browser   Start your week off right. Here's what you need to know to Get Up to Speed and Out the Door. By Doug Criss. 1. US and Russia The White House has a new communications director, but the messages coming out of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue are still muddled. Over the weekend Congress announced a deal on new Russia sanctions. Newly-promoted press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders (we'll miss you Sean Spicer!) said the Trump administration was cool with the legislation. But then new Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci said President Trump was still mulling it over. Scaramucci also said the President's still not ready to accept the intel community's assessment that Russia messed around with the 2016 election.  One more thing on the Russia front: First son-in-law Jared Kushner is expected to appear before the Senate intel committ...

We want to draw your attention to a powerful new work by West Coast Editor Valerie Taliman in the new June-July 2017 issue of Indian Country magazine. It’s called Oceti Sakowin: Lighting the Sacred Fire at Standing Rock: “In October 2016, Standing Rock Sioux Chairman David Archchambault II reached out to Arvol Looking Horse to discuss bringing the Oceti Sakowin, the Seven Council Fires, up to Standing Rock to unite the people. The Great Sioux Nation originally was made up of Seven Council Fires, and sharing a common fire always united the tribes. Keeping the peta waken (sacred fire) was important, especially as they traveled. Coals from the previous council fires were carefully preserved and used to rekindle the council fire at the new campsite. Tribal historians said the las...
