In 1998, Colorado state lawmakers mandated that American Indian history and culture be included in the curriculum of high schools in Colorado, based on the persistent efforts of Comanche State Senator Suzanne Williams. In 2003, they broadened the law mandating that in order to graduate students must satisfactorily complete a civil government course which includes the history, culture and social contributions of American Indians and other groups, Colorado Revised Statute 22-1-104. Yet tens of thousands of students graduate each year in the state without taking the single course Colorado requires to earn a high-school diploma. It is simply not offered. This book on Colorado's American Indian leaders is intended to help Colorado fulfill this educational mandate.

All That Glitters Is Ours

All That Glitters Is Ours

U.S. General Pope in 1878 stated that it was absolutely imperative that Indian Nations realize the United States' premeditated and calculated determination to dispossess the "savage" and occupy his lands and that "it is certain that the larger part of the country claimed by him will, in some manner, pass into the possession of the white race." The insatiable drive for a continental empire resulted in the iron triangle of the federal government, the military and big business working in concert to steal Indian mineral lands. They knowingly and willfully unleashed the pioneer vigilantes to commandeer Indian resources. The Commissioner of Indian Affairs J.Q. Smith wrote in 1876: "Wherever an Indian reservation has on it good land, or timber, or minerals, the cupidity of the white man is excited, and a constant struggle is inaugurated to dispossess the Indian, in which the avarice and determination of the white man usually prevails." "Every art, trick, and device of the unscrupulous land pirate is resorted to," admonished Colonel Preston. Yet it was brutal warfare, massacres, disease, and starvation that decimated Indian populations, leaving them destitute, to be replaced by industrial tycoons, timber barons, mineral magnates, and capital investors profiting from the "savage's" minerals in the bowels of the Earth.

In the past, American Indian War Societies were tasked with ensuring their peoples' survival during times of conflict and war. It is time that these disciplined, War Societies be revived to protect our Indian Nations' sovereignty over their lands, resources, and peoples and our urban population. We need the physical and mental strength, the confident and resolute conviction, the education and connection to our Indian identities, the leadership and protection of our Warrior Class. Our War Societies must possess and act upon the highest moral obligation and duty for the continued survival of Indian peoples and their strong and vibrant future.

The American Indian Probate Act was enacted in 2004 and became effective in 2006. The Act applies to all individually owned trust lands, unless a tribe has its own probate code. State laws no longer apply. Its purposes include preserving the trust status of Indian lands by restricting non-Indian inheritance, reducing fractionation by earmarking federal funds for consolidation, and authorizing Indian co-owner and tribal purchase and sale of ownership interests. The Bureau of Indian Affairs estimated that heading into fiscal year 2024, it had a probate case backlog of more than 32,000 cases. Its ability to prepare cases for probate is limited due to understaffing and underfunding. In 2022-2023, the Interior Board of Indian Appeals docketed 31 Indian probate cases and reached the merits only four times. It dismissed most of those cases for procedural errors, for problems with service and missed deadlines, or for failure to prosecute. To families struggling to put bread on the table, the cost of legal counsel is simply out of reach. The digital divide in Indian Country only makes communication more difficult, if not, impossible, for the geographically isolated, disabled and elderly who may lack transportation in rural areas, telephones or postal service. This book is to sound an alarm.
