These ideas build on the two missions of TCUs, which are to preserve the history, language, and culture and to increase economic development. The foundational idea for these new approaches harkens to the calls for Ethnoscience in the 1990s, which argued for the importance of connecting science to the tribal worldview. Our survey of TCU science instructors and federally funded science projects indicates that the chemistry course at Turtle Mountain Community College was among the earliest science courses to use Ethnoscience principles. Their major product was a lab manual that made connections through the use of materials with a tribal connection. Since then, TCU science faculty at a number of other institutions have been making tribal connections in and out of the classroom, relating to microbiology, climate change, chemistry, and medicinal plants. These projects show the myriad ways to connect science to tribal community topics.","PeriodicalId":343767,"journal":{"name":"Wicazo Sa Review","volume":"438 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122787960","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite lopsided power relations, Western Apaches have actively resisted this recent incursion into their sacred lands. This ongoing story is the continuation of a 500-year-old colonial project in which the Vatican has played a leading role. Given recent Indigenous struggles to protect water and sacred lands at Standing Rock, Bears Ears, and Mauna Kea, studying earlier threats to and desecration of sacred and ecologically unique Indigenous lands can be instructive. The narrative provided here is an invitation for scholars and activists to continue to work for Mount Graham and to find a different way forward that respects Western Apache peoples, this sacred place, and all of the plants, animals, and supernaturals that call this mountain range home.","PeriodicalId":343767,"journal":{"name":"Wicazo Sa Review","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129631010","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hernandez","doi":"10.1353/wic.2019.0001","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1353/wic.2019.0001","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract:Over the past forty years, Dakota writer and scholar Elizabeth Cook-Lynn has published numerous books and articles that are foundational to Native American studies. Although much of Cook-Lynn’s scholarship focuses upon Native politics, law, and history, this article examines her often underappreciated, undervalued contributions to Native literature. In this article, I provide a close reading of Cook-Lynn’s 1999 book Aurelia: A Crow Creek Trilogy, a collection of three novellas that quickly fell out-of-print after early literary critics dismissed it as too political and unrealistic. Indeed, Cook-Lynn’s trilogy is unapologetically political as she exposes the devastating effects of settler colonialism. However, I argue that early literary critics, who bristled at these accusations, also seemed to misinterpret this trilogy because they failed to acknowledge that it is firmly grounded in the Dakota literary tradition. Aurelia is a contemporary retelling of two traditional Dakota oral stories (o-hun-ka-ka tales) about the Corn Wife and the sacred river that remind contemporary Dakota people about their connection and responsibility to the land and each other. In this close reading, I explicate the content, style, and structure of these three novellas to show how Cook-Lynn re-imagines the Dakota oral tradition in a more modern form as print literature.","PeriodicalId":343767,"journal":{"name":"Wicazo Sa Review","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128350201","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
