A police officer chased a Native teen to his death. Days later, the police force shut down without explanation.In 2020, Blossom Old Bull was raising three teenagers on the Crow Indian Reservation in Montana. Her youngest son, Braven Glenn, was 17, a good student, dedicated to his basketball team.That November, Old Bull got a call saying Glenn was killed in a police car chase that resulted in a head-on collision with a train. Desperate for details about the accident, she went to the police station, only to find it had shut down without any notice.  “The doors were locked. It looked like it wasn't in operation anymore—like they just upped and left,” Old Bull said. “It's, like, there was a life taken, and you guys just closed everything down without giving the family any answers?”This kicks off a yearslong search to find out what happened to Glenn and how a police force could disappear overnight without explanation. This week on Reveal, Mother Jones reporter Samantha Michaels' investigation into the crash is at once an examination of a mother's journey to uncover the details of her son's final moments and a sweeping look at a broken system of tribal policing.This is an update of an episode that originally aired in April 2024.  Support Reveal's journalism at Revealnews.org/donatenow Subscribe to our weekly newsletter to get the scoop on new episodes at Revealnews.org/weekly Instagram Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

In November 2020, Blossom Old Bull was raising three teenagers on the Crow Indian Reservation in Montana. Her youngest son, Braven Glenn, was 17, a good student, dedicated to his basketball team. But he'd become impatient with pandemic restrictions, and his grandmother had just passed away from COVID-19.   One night, Glenn and his mother got in a fight, and he left the house. The next day, Old Bull got a call saying Glenn was killed in a police car chase, that he died in a head-on collision with a train. Old Bull was desperate for details about the accident, but when she went to the police station, she discovered it had shut down without any notice.  Mother Jones reporter Samantha Michaels follows Old Bull's search for answers about her son's death and discovers serious lapses in policing on the Crow and other Indian reservations. Old Bull encounters many roadblocks. She files a Freedom of Information Act request for the police report, but her request is denied. As months pass, she still doesn't have basic information, like which officer chased her son and how he ended up on the train tracks.Next, Michaels traces the origins of the police force that chased Glenn. It was created by the Crow Nation's chairman to address a lack of policing on the reservation. Before the new police force was launched, the federal Bureau of Indian Affairs was responsible for policing. But its force was underfunded and understaffed, with only four or five officers patrolling an area nearly the size of Connecticut. The new department was supposed to be a solution, but there were problems from the start. Old Bull learns from a former dispatcher that officers were not properly trained and the department was in chaos.Nearly three years after Glenn's death, Michaels is able to obtain information about the accident and share it with Old Bull. Through a FOIA request, Michaels receives official reports about the accident that explain how Glenn ended up on the train tracks. The reports also show how the investigation into the chase was flawed. Old Bull processes the information and grapples with a disturbing fact: The federal government denied her own FOIA request, even though she's Glenn's mother, but handed over documents to Michaels, a White reporter with no connection to Glenn. Days later, Michaels brokers a meeting between Old Bull and the former tribal police chief. Old Bull shares how the department's sudden closure – and the lack of information about her son's death – affected her family.

Mildred Alexis Old Crow, known as Milly, of the Crow Tribe, was just six-years-old when relatives last saw her alive in July of 2018, though she wasn't reported missing from her home in Billings, Montana, until November 2020. A last reported sighting of the little girl was on the Crow Indian Reservation in April of 2019. Milly was outgoing and compassionate, and she loved to dance and sing, as well as participate in traditional Native American activities, such as Hand-game. After her father passed away, Mildred was put into the care of her aunt and her wife, in order to prevent her from entering the care system, but this would lead to tragedy when in February 2021, Milly's body would be found by a camper near Garryowen, located on the reservation itself. Her aunt, Roseen Lincoln Old Crow, and her wife, Veronica Tierza Dust, would later be arrested and charged with endangering the welfare of a child and custodial interference, but the pair were not charged in regards to Mildred's murder, causing outrage amongst the community. Justice still remains to be served. If you feel that you need support regarding any of the issues presented in this episode, please contact your local crisis centre.

Part 1: According to Center for Disease Control and Prevention, “American Indian and Alaska Native people were more likely to get liver, stomach, kidney, lung, colorectal, and female breast cancers than White people in most regions. In fact, compared to White women, Native American women had higher rates of getting liver, stomach, kidney, colorectal, and cervical cancer.” Today's guest tirelessly works at the community level within the Apsáalooke (Crow) Nation to provide medical and health outreach regarding cancer prevention methods, cancer awareness, and appropriate treatment methods for all Apsáalooke citizens. Turn in for more information regarding our guest works, allies and supporter's assistance, and collective efforts of the Messengers for Health, an Indigenous 501(c)(3) non-profit organization located on the Apsáalooke (Crow) Nation in Montana. Our mission is to improve the health of individuals on the Crow Indian Reservation and outlying areas through community-based projects designed to strengthen the capacity of communities and empower them to assess and address their own unique health-related problems. Guest: Alma Knows His Gun-McCormick (Apsáalooke Nation), “is a member of the Apsáalooke (Crow) Nation and fluently speaks her language. Her compassion for working with cancer stems from her personal experience of losing her daughter to cancer. From 1996-2000 she was the Outreach Coordinator for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention-funded Montana Breast and Cervical Health Program. She first conducted outreach education with Apsáalooke Indian women, feeling a breakthrough about the awareness of the importance of the Pap test and mammograms. Later, she provided culturally sensitive education to all Indian women on the seven reservations and in urban Indian clinics in Montana. Alma's focus has been on health education with the dream of continuing her work with women and men on the Crow reservation. She has fulfilled that dream by being the Executive Director for the Messengers for Health Program. She is a single mother with two sons, one daughter, and five grandchildren.” Part 2: Indigenous peoples and their respective First Nations are on the frontlines of Mother Earth struggling and resisting against violent forms of colonialism including nefarious manifestations of ecocides, democides, genocides, and the full dominant spectrum of “cides”.

In this new episode, the Tribal Research Specialist (TRS) team talk with Ben Pease (Apsáalooke/Tsétsêhéstâhese), renowned artist from  Lodge Grass, MT. The episode starts with a song from the TRC archives. The song is sung by Pat Kennedy (1925-2004),  well-known singer throughout the United States and Canada, spiritual healer and traditionalist. Many of his songs are still sang today. Ben Pease grew up on the Crow Indian Reservation town of Lodge Grass, MT, and graduated High School at Hardin High School. Ben subsequently attended Minot State University on a football scholarship and was awarded the Twyman Art Scholarship. At MSU he studied under Walter Piehl, a protege of world-renowned artist Fritz Scholder. After meeting his Wife at Minot State University and having their first son, Ben and his family moved to Bozeman, MT. Pease left football behind and continued his pursuit of art & creativity at Montana State University where he studied under Rollin Beamish & Sara Mast.Please visit our sponsor for this episode! --->  https://wyld.gallery/ Buy us a Coffee to support the showThe episode continues with a discussion on the social implications of pan-indianism and how the pressure to maintain an "Indian cool factor" can detract from the inner workings of Tribal life. Additional discussions center on the controversies of the emergent copyrighting of cultural products.Ben's work has gained national & international attention. His work has been featured in scores of magazines, books, online publications, and social media networks like Western Art Collector Magazine, Southwest Art Magazine, Mountain Living Magazine, Big Sky Journal, Fine Art Connoisseur Magazine, Cowboys & Indians Magazine, Montana Women's Magazine, National Geographic, University of North Carolina Press, and even various international periodicals in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Stuttgart, & Frankfurt.The second half of the episode starts with an Owl Dance song from and unknown artist, again from the TRS archives. The discussion continues with an examination of the inter-tribal effects of our own cultural impositions we place on each other. The results are evaluated as a "frenzied culturalism", imagined as individual racing frantically to satisfy an indigenous image. The discussion shifts to way we can move ourselves out of "Indian 101" an into a new era of advancement that represents our Tribal reality.

Hi there! Welcome to Stories That Made Us. This week, we talk about the creation myths of the Creeks, Crows, and Diegueno. They are all Native American tribes of the United States. The first story is of the Creeks, also known as Muskogee. They are made up of several tribes that had originally lived in the states of Georgia and Alabama. They were a part of the "five civilized tribes" - others being Cherokee, Chickasaw, Choctaw, and Seminole. They lived a sedentary life, and their livelihoods predominantly consisted of agriculture. They were notorious during the early years of American settlement. The 1813 war between the United States and the Red Stick faction of the Creek Nation was particularly disastrous. The Creeks were responsible for the sacking of Fort Mims, killing nearly 400 settlers. In retaliation, General Andrew Jackson defeated the Red Sticks and exacted a secession of 23 million acres of land from the tribes. After Jackson became the President, he forcibly removed the Creeks to Oklahoma, prying them from their native lands in Alabama and Georgia. The tale we will be discussing is told by Muskeke Iskwew, a Creek medicine woman. It is a story of how peace and harmony first reigned between animals and humans. Eventually, human greed disrupted this harmony and caused many of the problems that we face today. The underlying belief is the sacredness of animals, and the destruction and corruption brought about by humans to Creation. The second story is of the Crow. These Native American people call themselves Apsaalooke, meaning "children of the large-beaked bird" or Absarkoes, which means "sparrow hawks". They are a member of the Siouan family and live predominantly on the Crow Indian Reservation in Montana. The Crow Nation originally comprised of over 38 million acres, but it shrank to less than 2.2 million acres after treaties with the United States government. Their creation myth, like many Native American stories, tell an earth diver story where the world is discovered by ducks that dived underwater to find land. The story also involves a creator and a trickster. In this tale, the creator is Old Man Coyote, and the trickster is Little coyote. The final story is of the Diegueno. Also known as San Diegueno, they are a group of Yuman speaking Native Americans who originally lived on either side of the Mexican and the United States border, comprising of Californian and Baja Californian lands. They were named after the mission of San Diego. The coastal tribespeople mostly lived on fish and mollusks, while the inland Diegueno engaged in agriculture. They were known for handicrafts such as pottery and baskets. I hope you enjoy the tales. If you do, please leave a rating and feedback. Share and subscribe! Your patronage would help us immensely!

Mardell Hogan Plainfeather, who is retired from the National Park Service, shares the story of her mother, Lillian Bullshows Hogan (1905–2003). Hogan grew up on the Crow Indian Reservation, learned traditional arts and food gathering from her mother, survived the bitterness of Indian boarding school, and grew up to be a complex, hard-working Native woman who drove a car, maintained a bank account, and read the local English paper. Hogan spoke Crow as her first language, practiced beadwork, tanned hides, honored clan relatives in generous giveaways, and often visited the last of the old chiefs and berdaches with her family.

The Battle of the Little Bighorn, known to the Lakota and other Plains Indians as the Battle of the Greasy Grass and also commonly referred to as Custer's Last Stand, was an armed engagement between combined forces of the Lakota, Northern Cheyenne, and Arapaho tribes and the 7th Cavalry Regiment of the United States Army. The battle, which resulted in the defeat of US forces, was the most significant action of the Great Sioux War of 1876. It took place on June 25–26, 1876, along the Little Bighorn River in the Crow Indian Reservation in southeastern Montana Territory The fight was an overwhelming victory for the Lakota, Northern Cheyenne, and Arapaho, who were led by several major war leaders, including Crazy Horse and Chief Gall, and had been inspired by the visions of Sitting Bull. The US 7th Cavalry, including the Custer Battalion, a force of 700 men led by Lt. Col. George Armstrong Custer, suffered a major defeat. Five of the 7th Cavalry's 12 companies were annihilated and Custer was killed, as were two of his brothers, a nephew and a brother-in-law. The total US casualty count included 268 dead and 55 severely wounded (six died later from their wounds), including four Crow Indian scouts and two Pawnee Indian scouts. Public response to the Great Sioux War varied in the immediate aftermath of the battle. Custer's widow soon worked to burnish her husband's memory, and during the following decades Custer and his troops came to be considered iconic, even heroic, figures in American history, a status that lasted into the 1960s. The battle, and Custer's actions in particular, have been studied extensively by historians.

It was a No. 1 song in the United States in 1960, topping the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart for the issue dated October 10, 1960, and remained there for one week. It is a comical song about a soldier's plea to General Custer before the climactic Battle of the Little Bighorn against the Sioux, which he did not want to fight. Public Access America
