Eskimo Belle by HG Kaiser.
Intimate portraits of Indigenous Alaskans – in pictures
Around 1900, several photographers,
including Missouri-born Beverly Bennett Dobbs
and two European emigrants to the US,
HG Kaiser and Albert F Johnson,
followed a gold rush to Nome, Alaska.
Among the clients they ushered into their portrait studios
were a number of Indigenous Alaskans,
whose striking pictures were later collected
by the British film producer Michael G Wilson.
“The portraits are remarkable for their intimacy,”
says Richard Ovenden, head of the Bodleian Library in Oxford,
which has recently acquired Wilson’s collection of
photographs.
Little is known about the subjects
but Ovenden values the portraits
as a record of a “moment of encounter and exchange”
between “the international community of prospectors [and]
the Inuit communities who had lived in peace
for thousands of years”.

15 April 2018
This week we bring you
“A Conversation With Native Americans
on Race,”
the latest installment in our wide-ranging
“Conversation on
Race” series.
Directed by Michèle Stephenson and Brian Young,
the film grapples
with the racist contradictions of a country
that, many feel,
would prefer it if Native Americans didn’t exist.

Hawaiians, Hawaiian people > native rights
Haunani-Kay Trask 1949-2021
Haunani-Kay Trask,
a scholar, poet
and champion of sovereignty
for the Hawaiian people
who decried
what she called the colonization
and despoliation of her native land
(...)
In her best-known book,
“Notes From a Native Daughter:
Colonialism and Sovereignty in Hawaii” (1993),
Dr. Trask called Hawaii
“once the most fragile
and precious of sacred places,
now transformed
by the American behemoth
into a dying land.”
“Only a whispering spirit remains,”
she wrote.
Dr. Trask was not afraid to make waves
as a leader of what became known
as the Hawaiian Sovereignty movement.
She received national attention in 1990
for remarks directed
at an undergraduate student
at the University of Hawaii,
where she was a professor
of Hawaiian Studies.
The student,
in a letter to the school newspaper,
accused Native Hawaiians
of holding racist attitudes
toward white people on the island.

Nearly half of all Native American tribes across the country
are benefiting from casinos and other gaming revenues.
For most,
it's their largest source of income.
But growing threats to that revenue
due to competition from non-Indian gaming
are forcing many tribes
to look for other investment
opportunities.

Native American human remains
As the United States
pushed Native
Americans from their lands
to make way for westward expansion
throughout the 1800s,
museums and the federal government
encouraged the looting of
Indigenous remains,
funerary objects and cultural
items.
Many of the institutions continue
to hold these today
— and in some cases resist their
return
despite the 1990 passage
of the Native American Graves
Protection and Repatriation Act.
“We never ceded or relinquished
our dead.
They were stolen,”
James Riding In,
then an Arizona State University
professor who is Pawnee,
said of the unreturned remains.
ProPublica this year
is
investigating the failure of NAGPRA
to bring about the expeditious return of human remains
by federally funded universities
and museums.
Our reporting, in partnership with
NBC News,
has found that a small group of
institutions
and government bodies
has played an outsized role in the
law’s failure.

For 1,000 years, long before
Columbus,
the Anasazi Indians were lords
of what's now the American
Southwest.
Their civilization was as complex and sophisticated
as that of the Mayans.
Then, apparently without warning,
the Anasazi all but disappeared.
Commentator Craig Childs
is author of House of Rain
a new book that tries to solve that ancient
mystery.
A visit to an Anasazi site
in southeastern Utah
offers clues.

policy,

was to sever
