The Washington Football Team is now the Washington Commanders. The change came two years after the team faced pressure from sponsors to drop the old mascot, logo, and name, which was seen as a racial slur. But this is just the latest change in a long-running national debate about the use of Native American imagery in sports.  Today we'll hear from social and cultural psychologist, Dr. Stephanie Fryberg. She's a professor at the University of Michigan and a member of the Tulalip Tribes of Washington State. She grew up on the reservation. Dr. Fryberg is a respected leader on this topic and has testified before Congress about her research.  Then later, we'll speak with the so-called “Mascot Guru,” professional entertainer Jerome Bartlett. He's talking about what he feels a mascot means to the team and its fans, and what it's really like to be the one wearing the costume.

Notosha and Michelle are educators for the Hibulb Culutral Center and they teach the Lushootseed language. They have two stories that they want to share with you: 'Basket Lady Swing' and 'Beaver and Echo'. I hope you enjoy them! Welcome to the Global Storytime Podcast!

Mytyl & Tessa of the Hibulb Cultural Center share the history and culture of the Tulalip Tribes

This story originally aired on March 30, 2019. About a decade ago, Juliet Shen took on dream project. Shen, a typeface designer and artist, was commissioned by the Tulalip Tribes to create a new font specifically for Lushootseed , the now endangered language used by most of the coast Salish tribes. Shen isn’t Native American, but she often thought about the disconnect between Western typeface design and indigenous cultures. “I felt the history of Native Americans was disconnected from the European history,” says Shen. “Which resulted in the way our typefaces looked today.” The story of written Lushootseed starts in the 1960s, a short time ago compared to the long history of the language. University of Washington linguist Thomas Hess and native Lushootseed speaker Vi Hilbert worked to document the language. In this effort, they wrote down Lushootseed for the first time using the phonetic alphabet. However, they used a very Western font – Times Roman. The original font reminded Shen of

Morgan Ruff , Snohomish Basin Capital Program Coordinator at Tulalip Tribes, grew up in the Seattle area and has a deep love of the environment. She works with farmers, tribal members, and community members to tackle issues specifically related to salmon protection. Working collaboratively is necessary for key policy changes. Listen to her explain her learning path towards effective communication. Morgan lives in Mount Vernon, WA with her family.  

Snohomish County and the Tulalip Tribes survey fish four times a month around the Snohomish River estuary by setting a net and counting the fish it catches. They measure size, record species, and look to see if Chinook salmon are recovering in light of habitat restoration projects. Chinook salmon are the preferred food of the Southern Resident killer whales, the 76 orcas on the brink of extinction. Since the fish aren't doing well, the whales are starving. Scientists have focused much of their effort on restoring salmon habitat which has been lost to development, agriculture and other issues, but they say the projects are way behind and need to speed up if we want the orcas and their favorite prey to survive.

The opioid crisis has hit the Tulalip Tribes pretty hard, as it has many Native American communities. The Washington tribe has come up with a unique solution. They’re putting $2 million towards research on cannabis as a treatment for opioid addiction. We hear from Les Parks, a tribal council member for the Tulalip Tribes and Annelise Barron, an associate professor of bioengineering at Stanford who is working on this research project.

In 2018 there are still over 2000 schools and professional sports teams with Native mascots, despite decades of activism and academic research demonstrating the harms of these images. Today Matika and Adrienne are in conversation with Amanda Blackhorse, Navajo social worker and mother, who was the lead plaintiff in the supreme court case against the Washington Redsk*ns, and Stephanie Fryberg, who is the top psychological researcher on these issues and has demonstrated through lab experiments and surveys how harmful these mascots are to Native youth and how they reinforce negative stereotypes.Guest BiosDr. Stephanie Fryberg is a member of the Tulalip Tribes, and an expert on the psychological and educational affects of social representations of race, class, and culture. She got her PhD in Psychology at Stanford University, where she is a member of the Multicultural Hall of Fame. Just last month, she was appointed as a Gerberding University Professor at the University of Washington, recognizing her exceptional research, contributions, and accomplishments in the field of American Indian Studies and Psychology. Dr. Fryberg’s research on stereotypes, race, class and psychological development led her to testify in front of the U.S. Senate Committee on Indian Affairs on the impact of racist stereotypes on Indigenous people. My favorite title of a recent paper would be hands down: “We’re honoring you dude: Myths, Mascots and American Indians.” She is also one of the hardest workers I have ever known, and one of my most influential thought leaders.Amanda Blackhorse is from Big Mountain on the Navajo reservation, and is a Dine’ a social worker, activist, and mother. She was the lead plaintiff in Blackhorse vs. Pro Football Inc, a 2012 case which sought to revoke trademark protection of the term Washington R*dsk*ns. She attended haskell and received her Bachelor’s degree in social work at the University of Kansas and her Master’s degree at Washington University in St. Louis. While her training and work history includes focuses on substance abuse treatment, health care, and adult mental health in the Native communities, she has fiercely fought against the use of Native American imagery and stereotypes as sports team mascots. After filing her case against Pro Football Inc., Amanda founded Arizona to Rally Against Native American Mascots, and later launched the website NoMoreNativeMascots.org. Both entities are dedicated to spreading education, organizing protests, and working towards the elimination of sports mascots based on Native American imagery. She is a badass warrior woman, and this week was standing on top of a car in Arizona protesting Native Halloween costumes.ResourcesStephanie FrybergArticle: Monuments that Romanticize ConquistadorsNPR Article: Experiencing Discrimination in AmericaTalking about invisibility & representation around the beginning: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65LT8pwD8xkStereotypes Panel Lecture: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WOHDcJe4BC0Amanda BlackhorseContact: https://www.facebook.com/ablackhorse/2017 RulinSupport the show (https://www.paypal.me/amrpodcast)

Native Opinion Episode 30 “Decisions Have Consequences” Hello From Dave and Mike Reach our show: hosts@nativeopinion.com Twitter: @nativeopinion Facebook.com/nativeopinion Leave us voice mail via speak pipe app or on our website   NATIVE  NEWS SEGMENTS   ARTICLE 1:  FORMER VICE CHAIR OF TULALIP TRIBES DEBORAH PARKER NAMED TO DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION’S PLATFORM COMMITTEE BY MARK TRAHANT / CURRENTS / 24 MAY 2016 nativenewsonline.net First the news. Then the context. The news is that Deborah Parker has been named to the Democratic National Convention’s Platform Committee. That’s both remarkable and important. She was appointed by Bernie Sanders. As Nicole Willis posted on Facebook: “I am beyond pleased that American Indian and Alaska Native issues are such a high priority for this campaign– so much that one of our platform spots has gone to Deborah Parker!” (Willis is the National Tribal Outreach Director for the Sanders’ campaign.)   Summary: What does this mean for Indian country? Well, it could mean good things for Indian country IF everyone follows through, and people are not paying lip service to win the Native vote. Ms. Parker is respected, knowledgeable and a forward-looking individual when it comes to Native concerns. Here are some of her accomplishments.    Ms. Parker, a former vice chairman of the Tulalip Tribes in Washington, was an early supporter of Sanders. Parker has much to offer any platform committee. First, she understands and can communicate the relationship between tribes and the federal government and what might be possible in terms of improvement. Second, Parker was a critical voice in the enactment of the Violence Against Women Act. She adds expertise and credibility   Article 2:    Tribal leaders call for return of remains, sacred items before auction By Emily Zentner | Cronkite News Tuesday, May 24, 2016  cronkitenews.azpbs.org/   Native Americans protest planned auction in France of sacred objects and human remains By Peggy McGlone May 24 washingtonpost.com   Summary: What are people thinking? Wait! I know! It USED to belong to Indians. They don’t exist any longer. WRONG! We do still exist. It is a common practice for non-Natives to sell articles that used to belong to their ancestors. I am not surprised they have no respect for the ancestors of Natives. Many cultures (European cultures come to mind), have no respect for other cultures, especially Native American culture(s).  As, Mr. Bradley Marshall of the Hoopa Valley Tribal Council states, he called the auction “deplorable” and said “items are living beings that belong to their communities. When we create objects we are in prayer, and a spirit goes into them,” he said. “They are part of our families.”   Title:  State Department report slams Clinton email use By Ryan Browne and Evan Perez, CNN Updated 6:23 PM ET, Wed May 25, 2016 cnn.com   A State Department Inspector General report said former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton failed to follow the rules or inform key department staff regarding her use of a private email server, according to a copy of the report obtained by CNN on Wednesday.   Summary:   Hillary Clinton failed to follow State Department rules involving her email servers. I am not surprised she failed to follow the rules. Positions of power sometimes lead to the assumption of “the rules don’t apply to me.” Clinton has failed to disclose that minor detail about her not following the Department rules. I am not sure she is not the only person to not follow the Department email rules, but she IS the only one running for the office of the President of the United States. I believe that is a detail she should have cleared up before deciding to run for office, again, and a problem that should disqualify her from running.   Title: Hillary Clinton fired for lies, unethical behavior   Dan Calabrese June 13, 2013, at 10:14am westernjournalism.com   Summary:     The article, although a reprint, warrants discussion. Why? Because it helps to substantiate, Clinton’s track record of not telling the truth. Here are a couple of quotes from one of her former supervisors, Jerry Zeifman, a now-retired general counsel and chief of staff of the House Judiciary Committee, who supervised Hillary when she worked on the Watergate investigation, and a lifelong Democrat, supervised the work of 27-year-old Hillary Rodham on the committee.    “Hillary’s history of lies and unethical behavior goes back farther – and goes much deeper – than anyone realizes.” Why? “Because she was a liar,” Zeifman said in an interview last week. “She was an unethical, dishonest lawyer. She conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the committee and the rules of confidentiality.”   Title:   Michelle Obama to SFIS grads: ‘Our world needs you’ By Robert Nott The New Mexican 27 May, 2016 Updated 3 hours ago Source:   m.santafenewmexican.com/   Summary:   The First Lady was the keynote speaker at the Santa Fe Indian School in Northern New Mexico.

March 3, 2016 "Native American Tribes' & Nations' Rights to Their Intellectual Property" Case Western reserve University School of Law Spangenberg Center for Law, Technology & the Arts Speaker: Preston Hardison Policy Analyst for the Tulalip Tribes of Washington Summary: Indigenous peoples and nations have a wealth of knowledge and resources related to their traditional ways of life. That is found in traditional knowledge, Folklore and in genetic resources which are extremely valuable to the communities and, with the advent of the knowledge economy, increasingly valuable to non-indigenous communities and corporations. However, this increased interest in traditional knowledge, traditional cultural expressions and genetic resources has increased the risk, the perception and the reality of the misappropriation of indigenous knowledge, ranging from biopiracy to cultural misappropriation, to denigration and misuse of indigenous cultural icons and sacred knowledge. In many case, misappropriation is enabled by the mainstream intellectual property system through patenting, or copyright or trademarks. In order to combat this, indigenous peoples and nations have sought to vindicate their rights both at the domestic level and in international bodies such as the World Intellectual Property Organisation. Native American groups have played an important role in these efforts and the lecture will discuss the nature of the domestic and international challenges that Native American tribes face in claiming rights to their intellectual property, including traditional knowledge, cultural expressions and genetic resources.
