butth now because of the civil r there are some native american tribes and nations that will side with the confederacy. canot necessary they agree with the confederacy but the confederacy has promised them land, a recognition of land, did you have a question? >> yes. does tensions when they agreed with the confederates were the tensions between tribal members at that time too? >> it is internal tribal conflict whether or not to side. there is always tension that we are going to see. the cherokee at one point before they were forced into indian territory there are some that owned slaves themselves they had adopted the nation of african slavery. some of them would have consorted the very last confederate general to surrender is going to be a cherokee general. stan will edi believe his name was, that sounds right in my head. this going to be some that will fight for the confederacy because they believe on the ideas of the confederacy some are going to support the confederacy because the devil that promised me the best is the devil i go with. because of this t internal tensions it is hard

turns out ben and jerry's headquarter are located on land that a native american nation says belongsthem. i'm tasting new ice cream, hypocrite and honey. dawn stevens, the chief, told newsweek, we'd be interested in a meeting to discuss the land being return. you don't get more native american than the husband in bewitched. dawn stevens, sounds like name bill hemmer gives when he stays at the red roof inn by the airport. i prefer traditional names like chief running bear or liz warren. in the cries cream maker's defense, everywhere in the world once belonged to someone else. my apartment is over an old burial ground. i know this, i did the burying. the lacotah took it from other indian tribes. ben and jerry's, since you live in vermont, give away all your homes and rent from bernie sanders. you came up with 98 flavors on stolen land and not one named after a tribe or chief, no reservation ripple, smoke signal sorbet, peace pipe pistachio, big cover-up. you made your ice cream from the milk of cows who never consented, right? we had the me, too, movement, maybe it is time for moo, too

it turns out ben & jerry's headquarters are located on land which the of inaki native american nations belongs to them. [audience reacts] i'm tasting a new flavor of ice cream. it includes highly. the chief dawn stevens, that is for inaki chief, the dawn stevens, told news read -- newsweek said he would be happy to discuss the plan being returned. you don't get more native american than dawn stevens. wasn't he the husband from "bewitched." who cares? no heckling. [laughter] dawn stevens, sounds like the name bill hamrick gives when he stays at the inn and not by the airport. i'm sorry, i prefer my indigenous people to have more integers names like chief running bear or liz warren. [laughter] in the ice cream maker's def defense, you can see anywhere in america or in the world in fact, once belonged to someone else. my apartment is actually over at old burial ground. i know this because i did the burial. in fact, even the indian tribes that wants mount rushmore back up early took it from other indian tribes. if you are sincere, ben & jerry's to you should start with your own hq. i'm su

there are some native american tribes and nations that will side with the confederacy not necessarily because they agree with the confederacy, but because confederacy has promised them. land all right a recognition of land brandon. did a question? did did those tensions with the when they signed with when they agree old when they agreed with the confederates for their attention between tribal members at that time, too? so yeah, there's internal tribal, you know conflict over whether or not decide with the confederacy. yeah, i mean so it's there is there's always tension that we're gonna see many now the cherokee at one point. actually i mean before they were forced into indian territory large chunks them there were some that owned slaves himself. they had adopted the notion of african slavery. so some of them would have supported conceptions of the confederacy. anyway, in fact the very last confederate general to surrender is going to to be a cherokee general. stand weighty. i believe his name was. sounds right in my head. so there's gonna be some that are going to fight for the confe

native americans serving in our military at the highest rate of any demographic, at nearly five times the nationalverage. hispanic americans, like those in the 65th regiment -- infantry regiment helping liberate a nazi concentration camp and protect allied roads and airfields and posts. asian americans, native hawaiians, pacific islanders, like the 442nd regimental combat team liberating europe -- a team that included one of my dearest and closest friends and a mentor of mine when i got here as a 29-year-old kid: the late senator danny inouye, who served in the senate with another friend -- a great hawaiian veteran: the late senator daniel akaka. the list goes on, including rank-and-file cooks, custodians, secretaries, mailmen -- too often overlooked and forgotten, but made it work. yet, when these veterans came home, they were still denied equal opportunity in housing, education, jobs, even marriage. families held in incarceration camps. many of them denied the benefits of the gi bill because the states put up barriers to be able to collect that gi benefit. and targeted in racist violence that wa

enslavement at the new grow, the annexation of the hispanics, the extermination of native americans made the birth of the american nation a you pick us kind of conception, conceived and hypocrisy and dedicated to a false proposition to white men were superior to non-white men and therefore allowed to oppress them, suppress them, whatever they wanted to do, so it's ironic that the court can say, you know, we got to remove race from the equation, and people or find a way to get into medical schools or find a way to get into all schools or colleges and universities. most people know that is not the case. last week, race neutral politics that the biden administration will come up with. the members of the caucus are working hard with the white house in that regard. unless we have a way to do and to really look at social economic status in terms of a criteria that will allow special consideration for admissions, and unless we are able to push back and challenge colleges and universities all over the country to do more and to be more and to find a way to get around the supreme court ruling, so it's dastardly, another one of th

native american chief called out ben & jerry's hypocrisy. arguing the ice cream maker's headquarters on land loosely owned by native nations so what could benry's be thinking? here's the tribal leaders. >> can't read their minds so i think the best way is for ben & jerry's to reach out, contact us as the state recognized tribes in our homeland and where there at present headquarters sit and have a conversation. they're willing to work with us and help uplift our people then and there for the conversation but we haven't had any contact yet. >> this really annoys me. these people were preaching to us but they don't live by their own rules. by the land back movement, time to give up their property to indigenous people. >> this is a guy worth hundreds of millions of dollars, he has all the money in the world he could give back to these people and give property back to these tribes. the bottom line is, fiscal conversation is about private property which was a great blessing european settlers brought to the americas by private property, all of the progress we've enjoyed in this country has come through the concept of private property and if you w

native nations. the old maps are used for cherokee out there somewhere and somewhere north of the work cherokee but larger on the map and the batteries as well as the native americans did not have boundaries. they did and they were contested just like they were in africa and europe and most of the rest of the world is important to see these were nations with having boundaries and also put some of the native towns and their. so many of these maps have been brought to new york philadelphia, charlestown, south carolina now charleston and zero native towns. in the vast majority of them in eastern mississippi did live in towns so just the presence is really important but i want to make a case that even if you were not hope this is an imaginary person but if you are some mark particularly care about history doll, but you did care about why the american revolution happen, then you still have to look at the native americans because the huge role they played freighted and answer your question about that nicole, one role that they played was resistance on the land and that leads to the british to draw a line along the west side of the appalachian mountains and you see on thi

it is a reversal of fortune that few other native american tribes have achieved. the much larger navajo nation settling its water claims. never mind farming, many of the more than 170,000 tribe members who live on the reservation still have to haul water to their homes. >> upwards of 40% of people within the navajo nation don't have running water. stephanie: crystal tulley cordova is a navajo hydrologist. >> you think about it, our sparse population, our rural living, in addition to that, you include water quality challenges, water production challenges that exist across the navajo nation. stephanie: water scarcity on the vast reservation is getting worse. >> primarily the navajo nation historically has used groundwater. and when you think about climate change impacts on shallow aquifers, they're vulnerable. navajo residents are vulnerable. we want to be able to have water rights that are secured, that we can be able to develop, to be able to close the clean water access cap. stephanie: with a 17 million acre reservation that borders the colorado, the navajo also have senior river rights. but

-americans like to think they're a nation of immigrants. the implication is that there were no natives"settler" riles people. our own people say, "hawaiian at heart." makes me sick to hear how easily genealogy flows away. 2,000 years of wise creation bestowed for a smile on resident non-natives. "form of survival," this thoughtless inclusion. taking in foreigners and friends, dismissing history with a servant's grin. "hawaiian at heart." nothing said about loss, violence, death by hundreds of thousands. "hawaiian at heart." a whole people accustomed to prostitution, selling identity for nickels and dimes in the whorehouses of tourism. "hawaiian at heart." why no "japanese at heart"? how about "haole at heart"? the ruling classes living off natives. first land, then women, now hearts cut out by our own familiar hand. they colonized us, the americans. and they're still conizing us with tourism by millions of tourists. so they should be grateful that i'm a writer. i mean, i'm -- i'm taking it and turning, for example, the anger, into creativity. and there's more than just anger. i mean, t

national leader. i became head of the geological survey for some years and founder of the u.s. bureau of ethnology, which is studying native american tribes. powell was actually far more sympathetic to native american tribes. and and that in the late 1800s and almost any americans were so thought their cultures were interesting and were studying and their languages that were worth preserving before. a lot of them were already starting to disappear. so but powell maybe biggest contribution in his in his washington career was that he a warning about our future national growth in patterns and our assumptions about national. so americans always had a sense of destiny about settling the frontier. you know, a god given domain us to settle and become prosperous. s and and the settlement patterns that had worked in the east, namely the homestead act, gave gave out acreage, 160 acre farms to anybody who could claim them and you know, a lot of a lot of that was very successful. but powell saw, when he came out to explorer, the colorado rockies and then the southwest, the 1860s, he saw that just wasn't going to work for the west. so there jus

native communities. this increase spending means a higher deficit and intense concern from many americans about the fiscal future facing our nation could we are $32 trillion in debt and that is unsustainable. beginning with the bia, this agency is charged with honoring the united states treaty and trust responsibilities toward american indians and alaskan natives in the 574 federally recognized tribes in the united states. the agency administers 55 million surface acres and 57 million acres of subsurface mineral estates held in trust and for individual american indians and alaskan natives. it provides programs for tribes to address community services, public safety and to encourage economic opportunity for native communities. the president's budget proposes a $684 million budget increase for the bia for fiscal year 2024. it proposes to transfer 105 l leases in contract support costs to minotaur spending which would bypass the appropriation process. it also proposes to focus more resources on conservation, so-called climate change and energy development that is allegedly renewable but which can have its own profound impacts on our

american indian and alaska native populations. it provides funding for diabetes prevention and treatment services to 300 indian health programs across the nation and the strength of it is it provides grantees with a great deal of flexibility and we heard little bit about that on the navajo nation today, to design and implement interventions that are culturally confident and directly meet the needs of those individual communities. how have you been able to tailor health prague programs on the nation and you think this kind of approach can be successful on a wider scale in non-native communities as well? >> good morning. thank you for that question. one of the things i want to mention is i recently lived in crystal, new mexico which is south, north -- there are a couple hundred walkers so people came out to walk half a mile, 1 mile, two miles are three miles and they were provided with bananas, good foods to eat and education so we have the whole navajo department of health goes out there. a very community approach, this is an opportunity for people to come out not only one of the things people take a lot of pride in is the t-shirts being provid
