I just found this, we are going to celebrate National American Indian Heritage in November.

San Francisco, CA —National American Indian Heritage Month is celebrated every year in themonth of November to honor and recognize the original peoples of thisland. The first "American Indian Day" was declared by the State of NewYork in 1916, but a month long recognition of Native Americans was notachieved until 1990. In that year President George H.W. Bush signed ajoint congressional resolution designating November 1990 as "NationalAmerican Indian Heritage Month."

The American Indian Film Institute (AIFI) hopes to encourage thebroader community in recognizing the importance of celebrating NationalAmerican Heritage Month.

Since 1975, the American Indian Film Festival has displayed over2000 films providing inspiration and support for Native film projects.The Festival encourages Native/non-Native filmmakers to bring to thebroader media culture the Native voices, viewpoints and stories thathave been historically excluded from mainstream media; to developIndian and non-Indian audiences for this work; and to advocatetirelessly for authentic representations of Indians in the media.

Hi Pat,

Thanks for your support. November is a time of celebration here for our Native Americans. I will need you too come by often. I do wish these Native American in Adlandpro would all join in for this celebration.

Just found this into days News from Indian Country

Main NEWS Section - General Topics - Native America

Sioux Falls, South Dakota (AP) 10-09

A defense spending bill that has passed the U.S. Senate contains aresolution of apology to American Indians. Both of South Dakota’ssenators said Oct. 7 they approve of the resolution but that it’s notenough.

Republican Sen. John Thune says he supports it but called it“symbolic.” He says the real issue is what’s being done to improve thequality of life on reservations.

Democratic Sen. Tim Johnson says American Indians deserve much morethan apology. He says they deserve full funding for the treaty andtrust responsibilities the federal government has taken on.

Johnson also says the apology shouldn’t “go forward” without an agreement to do more.

The resolution apologizes for years of “ill-conceived policies” and acts of violence by U.S. citizens.

But would the government keep it word?

Hugs,

Myrna
