    Extractions: Virtual Tours Native North Americans The Major Groups Most Anthropologists group Native North Americans into eight major groups. These groups are according to the type of lifestyle the natives had. Lifestyle depended largely on the type and amount of food available, and how easily people could move around. The size of individual groups within each area was limited by the amount of food available and the ability to store food. Sub arctic Hunters and Fishers This group includes all of Canada, except the Northwest coast and Arctic region, and extends south to the Great Plains. It only extended a little way into the present day United States. This is a very wet region in summer, and covered in snow in winter. Natives had to use canoes, toboggans and snowshoes to move around. Life was very difficult. Food was plentiful, with protein being the biggest part of the diet. Large herds of caribou migrated through the area every year. Fish, bear, moose and deer were also good sources of food.

Acolapissa The mild climate of the lower Mississippi required little clothing. Acolapissa men limited themselves pretty much to a breechcloth, women a short skirt, and children ran nude until puberty. With so little clothing with which to adorn themselves, the Acolapissa were fond of decorating their entire bodies with tattoos. In cold weather a buffalo robe or feathered cloak was added for warmth.

    Extractions: By Mike Krebs About a year ago, I went to an event that featured two people, one Palestinian and one Israeli, who were both speaking about the continued occupation of Palestine. I remember that they displayed a map of the West Bank on an overhead projector, and were showing how the Palestinian land is divided up by numerous Israeli highways and settlements. They showed how Palestinian cities and towns were totally separated from one another, and explained how, for Palestinians, traveling between cities is very restricted at the best of times, impossible at the worst. As I looked at this map, I was reminded of the maps I have showing the traditional territory of the Blackfoot, and how that land looks today, carved up by white settlement into a number of reservations. The Israeli Military checkpoints set up throughout the West Bank, where Palestinians are routinely harassed, also reminded me of the old ‘pass system,’ which came into being about ten years after the Blackfoot signed Treaty 7 with the Canadian government. Under this system, Blackfoot people needed to obtain a permit from a white Indian agent to leave their reservation. The person who obtained the ‘pass’ had to state the purpose of their trip and return within a specified time. Those who left their reservation without a permit or did not return before the permit expired were arrested or forced to work for the Indian agent without pay. The days of the Canadian ‘pass system’ are now over, but its use as a tool of colonization lives on in the West Bank.

    Extractions: Half Moon Manual for Historic Interpretation Half Moon News Rate this Page Henry Hudson and Early Hudson River History Henry Hudson was already a famous explorer of Arctic waters when in 1608 he was hired by the Dutch East India Company to find a Northeast, all-water route to Asia. The Dutch East India Company had a monopoly on trade with the Orient and which wanted to shorten the lengthy and expensive voyage around the Cape of Good Hope. They provided him with an 80-ton ship, the Half Moon, and a crew consisting of 20 Dutch and English sailors. The original Half Moon (Halve Maen was commissioned on March 25, 1609, for the Dutch East India Company. She was a ship of exploration designed to take a crew of twenty into unknown and uncharted waters. The Half Moon sailed out of Amsterdam on April 4 or 6, 1609 heading northeast along the coast of Norway. After encountering ice and cold off the coast of Norway, Hudson turned west and headed for warmer weather. Hudson first landed on the coast of Maine where members of the crew went ashore and cut timber to replace the mast of the Half Moon.

    Extractions: Totem Bight State Park, Ketchikan, Alaska The Northwest's wild, stormy, rain-drenched coastal inlets provide the setting for one of the world's unique art forms To the Natives of the Northwest Coast, cedar is considered a gift from the Great Spirit. They made clothing and blankets of its inner bark, split huge slabs for houses, built dugout canoes as long as 55 feet in length, and they carved totems. Many carvers have deep spiritual feelings about their craft and the trees used to carve totems. They consider killing a tree that's 600 years old something that shouldn't be taken lightly. The cedar tree is like a living relative. It has a heart, lungs (boughs), feet, and is nourished by the sun, rain, and Mother Earth, the same as the People. Before Native carvers cut a cedar, they might talk to it, and explain why it's necessary for it to die. Then they might explain how fortunate it is to become a representative of the Native culture, the People. And they might pray before picking up their tools, that the tree's spirit will guide their hands.

    Extractions: (Race in Contemporary American Cinema: Part 4) Cineaste v21, n3 (Summer, 1995):34 (2 pages). Every decade, Hollywood studios announce that they have 'reinvented' the Native American genre. Finally, studios say, Indians will be portrayed as accurately as possible; they will now play themselves in major roles and their non-Indian antagonists will be seen in a less than positive light. In short, the old saying that the only good Hollywood Indian is a dead Indian will no longer be valid. This line of reasoning contains several faulty assumptions. During the silent era, the many 'reforms' so grandly proclaimed by contemporary filmmakers were commonplace. Unfortunately, these silent Indian-theme films failed to change dominant cultural values, and they could not withstand the demand for the cowboy-and-Indian attacks by the late 1930s in Westerns like The Plainsman Texas Rangers (1937), and Stagecoach (1939). While numerous books have already discussed these silent films, many have not been readily available to scholars, much less the general public. Now that situation has dramatically changed. The Motion Picture, Broadcasting and Recorded Sound Division of the Library of Congress has recently identified more than two hundred fiction and nonfiction films with substantial Native American content.(*) This treasure trove allows us to rethink that early era and to speculate realistically on what later brought about more negative Indian images.

    http://www.schoolnet.ca/vp-pv/learning/e/documents/salmon/10.html
    
    Extractions: The 1985 Pacific Salmon Treaty was designed to manage the fishery along the Pacific Coast from Oregon to the Yukon River. The document sets catch limits for the United States and Canada and upholds the 1982 Law of the Sea Convention, which gives the right to manage and effectively own fish to the country where the fish spawn. Catch limits for particular species expire and are renegotiated on a regular cycle. Last month [December 1992], as a new round of talks on salmon limits began in Vancouver, sparks flew between American and Canadian negotiators. At the core of the dispute was the American demand for more Fraser River salmon while at the same time placing more of their fish off-limits to Canadians. Ottawa is placing a high priority on what happens in the salmon talks. So high, in fact, that on January 8 [1993] it named Yves Fortier, former Canadian Ambassador to the United Nations, as chief negotiator for the Canadian delegation. . . . It is clear from public statements that Canada is prepared to stand firm. "The Americans are taking an unsupportable position, demanding increases in their catches of Canadian-origin fish and decreases in Canadian catches of United States-origin fish," says John Crosbie, [then] federal Minister of Fisheries and Oceans. "The United States' position wilfully ignore the provisions of the [Treaty]."
