The timing of the show is sig- nificant, as this month marks 60 years since the inundation of Celilo Falls. Broken Treaties examines the his- tory of the Native people of Or- egon, and how they have gone from possessing 100 percent of the state’s land to nearly none of it. OPB pro- vides an overview of the docu- mentary: ‘Broken Treaties’ Oregonians today generally know little about the first inhabitants of the region, the tribal people who lived here for thousands of years before European contact. Indians still have a significant presence, with nine federally recog- nized tribes located around the state, yet they continue to live ‘off the radar’ of most non-Indians. Before Euro-Americans came West, this region was home to a di- verse and remarkable mix of Indian tribes and Native languages. What is now Oregon was Indian coun- try—hundreds of villages in an en- vironment of natural abundance, in which most people thrived. In the early 1830s the Oregon Trail established a direct route to the Pacific Northwest. The government encouraged Americans to make the journey and settle here to strengthen its claim to the territory. Two Congressional laws—the Northwest Ordinance of 1787 and The Organic Act of 1848—each declared the United States’ commit- ment of good faith and fair treat- ment toward the native people. Early settlers often did not heed these pronouncements. They settled where they pleased, which began the slow but relentless acquisition of the Indians’ most valued asset: their land. The transfer of land away from the Indians took more than a century and assumed many forms—and it was effective. In 1850, before any treaties had been signed or any land legally ac- quired from the Indians, Congress passed the Donation Land Act, giv- ing 320 acres of Indian land to ev- ery settler who wanted it. Within five years, they would claim 2.8 million acres of it. Congress sent envoys to acquire Indian land legally through treaties, even as the government—before any documents were ratified—con- tinued to promote settlement there. Tribes may mediate schools agreement Oregon Experience on ‘Broken Treaties’ The Confederated Tribes have been trying to negotiate a new long- term education agreement with the Jefferson County School District 509-J. This has been an on-going pro- cess yet to be resolved. Meanwhile the district is following an agreement that is past due for renewal. The tribes may request the mat- ter be put to mediation. This would be through the Oregon Department of Education. Tribal Council met last week with school district board members and the tribal Education Committee. Part of the discussion was in re- gard to the property at the previous elementary school campus, includ- ing teachers’ row. Tribal Council appointed Chair- man Austin Greene Jr. and Secre- tary-Treasurer Michele Stacona as representatives to negotiate on be- half of the tribes. The property was subject to a long-term lease with the school dis- trict. The arrangement is no longer needed since the 2014 opening of the Warm Springs k-8 Academy. Councilman Ron Suppah suggested a resolution be reached at least by the end of this year, and the parties agreed. Discussion then turned to the overall education agreement, or memorandum of understanding, between the tribes and the district. The current five-year agreement was supposed to expire last summer. But because no new agreement has been reached, the district continues to operate under this understand- ing. Last year the previous Tribal Council appointed the Education Committee to negotiate terms of a new agreement. The committee developed a detailed proposal, but was not able to reach an agreement with the district. The current Tribal Council then took office, and appointed two new members to the Education Com- mittee. There is still no agreement, and mediation may be the best so- lution, said Deanie Smith, Culture and Heritage project supervisor, and Education Committee mem- ber. The problem with the current agreement is its general vagueness, Ms. Smith said. There are state and federal standards that apply to Indian education, and these should be addressed in the new agreement, she said. Tribal Council next week is scheduled to meet with April Campbell, Indian Education Ad- visor with the Oregon Depart- ment of Education. The meet- ing should help determine whether mediation is necessary. Some of the issues that need to be resolved are fundamen- tal. For instance at the meeting last week there was discussion of having a charter school or high school in Warm Springs. This is not a solution to the issues now facing the district, Councilwoman Carina Miller said.

am sharing my bariatricjourney—surgery to closeoff part of my stomach—to support those individualswho are thinking about hav-ing this weight loss proce-dure, or who have alreadyhad it.

During my 67 years oflife, I had many doctor ap-pointments at IHS. I hadmedical referrals for nu-merous health concerns, andseveral surgeries.

I was prescribed a widevariety of medications andpain medications. I was adiabetic for 14 years, hav-ing to use insulin and pills.

I was obese. I was an un-healthy person getting moreand more miserable and de-pressed.

I felt like a bother, andconstantly in pain.

One of my referrals wasbecause my liver was actingup and enlarged.

The doctor I was re-ferred to was very up frontand honest about my obe-sity being a primary causeleading to my bad diabetesimpacting my liver.

He strongly recom-mended bariatric surgery.At that time I was unawarethat the tribal Managed Careprogram had never ap-proved this type of proce-dure to be covered for pay-ment, or that I was the firstWarm Springs Native per-sons to have bariatric sur-gery.

When I realized this Ithought about it and decidedI had to be successful sothat others could get ap-proved to have this oppor-

tunity to become healthier.It was stressful at first. In

order to see the surgeon Iwas required to complete a564 question psychologicalevaluation, attend classes ondiet, and go to the Sleep Cen-ter.

I also had appointmentswith a dietitian and a psy-chologist.

I learned a lot, and every-thing my mom tried to teachme was absolutely rein-forced.

I was told I had to lose20 pounds so the liver couldshrink and other organswould be okay for surgery.I had to do this so the threesurgical instruments wouldbe able to get to where theyneeded to be. This was ahuge challenge because Inever tried to diet before.

All along, as a biggerwoman, I walked 15 lapsaround the old grade schooltrack, and continued to dothis to keep my heart andlungs strong for the surgery.

The okay came for sur-gery, and I was ready as Icould be.

I was only in for one anda half days at Good Samari-tan in Portland. I went backto work after a week. Bythen the weight had alreadystarted coming off.

It was really hard respond-ing to people’s curious ques-tions. I was continuallyasked, “Are you sick?” Whenreally it was the completeopposite: I was getting bet-ter.

The other question was,“How much are you goingto lose?”

This was impossible to an-swer, because only my body

would know when it had lostenough.

There were a lot of dayswhen I didn’t want to see any-body, but had to go to work.Every couple weeks, I had totry to find a size or two smallerclothes, so I shopped at Good-will, one of my favoritestores.

Within six and a halfmonths I had lost 120pounds. At one point therewas concern about muscleloss due to the quick volumeof weight loss.

It has now been 6 yearsand eight months.

As much as my mind tellsme I am hungry, my bodysystem says No, and doesn’tallow me to overeat.

I take vitamins now, drinkwater, sneak a diet soda fromtime to time, and stay active.

I sleeps better, so I havelots of energy. I eat healthierfoods and eat a lot less.

My diabetes no longer ex-ists. It was gone a few daysafter surgery. My blood pres-sure is great (106/62 ), A1cis 5.3, and I still have my

marbles upstairs.For a time I was the only

one in Warm Springs whohad gone through this sur-gery. So there were no otherpatients to draw supportfrom. Now, there should beenough to start a supportgroup.

If you’re thinking aboutgetting healthier, you can doit when you put your mindto it and are persistent.

Everyone has someonewho is counting on them—kids, spouse, brothers, sisters,parents, grandparents,friends, employers—andthese are excellent reasons tostart taking better care ofyourself.

I have no regrets aboutmy decision to becomehealthier and doing thebariatric surgery. Don’t pro-crastinate any longer.

For those in the healthmedical field, Please be hon-est and progressive with yourpatients about obesity andthe impacts.

Somehow, at age 60 I fi-nally made my decision to gethealthier.

Please, don’t wait thatlong, although it does go toshow it is never too late totake better care of yourself.

I thank my kids Dorianand Rebecca, Dr. Creelman,Dr. Irma, Dr. Patterson,tribal surgery authorizers,tribal bill payers, and the oth-ers involved in my surgery.Thank you for being thereand standing with me alongthe way.

In order for the Sanitationprogram to provide good andtimely service, it is necessarythat all driveways be clear oflow hanging trees, branchesand shrubbery.

By keeping your drivewaymaintained it will allow thesanitation trucks that are talland wide to be able to movedown them without beingdamaged.

Low hanging trees anduncut shrubs are breakingoff mirrors and causing otherdamage to vehicles.

to my children and now tomy first grandchild?”

Tonia like to develop herown business as a notarypublic or tax interpreter, asshe is also bi-lingual. And shewould like work with low-income families.

In the long-term shewould like to develop a fam-ily business where all fourof her daughters and herson can work. In this wayshe would leave a long-last-ing legacy for her family.Another idea is to work forthe government as an FBI

linguistic interpreter.College is showing

Tonia that she can build afinancially secure futurefor herself and her fam-ily. College is also a confi-dence builder, turning herinto a life-long learner andshowing her that she haswhat it takes to succeed.

“My kids are im-pressed,” Tonia says.“They are all proud of meand now they are all talk-ing about going to college.”

Her advice to othersthinking about going? “It’sa good investment inyourself. You get to learnnew technology, and youget a better paying jobwhen you’re done.”

Also, find yourselfsome mentors: “MabelJackson, Shai Saunders,Carrie McCormick andGina Ricketts come to hermind,” she says.

It all seems to be fall-ing in place for Tonia. Andin a few years, expect tosee her busy with her newcareer!

House fireIn early January 2017 at

4 a.m. on a Sunday morn-ing, and with knee-deepsnow, we had a freak fire inmy grandson Wesley’s bed-room. We were very luckythat Wes woke up in time toget everyone out of thehouse.

I am, however, saddenedof the news that floatedthrough the grapevine. I didnot receive megabucks fromour tribes’ fire and disasterfund, as malicious wordswere spread. According tothe Fire Department therewas no damage. Fortunately,I have full coverage on myhouse, but the settlementtakes time.

I would like to take thistime to thank Don and LolaSohappy for their donationof beautiful clothing for meand my grandchildren, andthe Tribal Council for acheck for $500. Thatshould satisfy those enquir-ing minds. Credit treated mewith utter respect and help.

I would never wish thisto happen to anybody, and Iwas very fortunate to payand pay for my home insur-ance, and I encourage oth-ers to do so. With due re-spect,

Coho returnThe Nez Perce Tribe and

the Oregon Department ofFish and Wildlife took a his-toric step last week with thereintroduction of cohosalmon to northeast Oregon’sWallowa Valley.

The event was the releaseof a half million coho smoltsinto the Lostine River, mark-ing the first time that cohohave been in this basin in 31years.

It is a great honor to beable to witness the first stepsin reintroducing cohosalmon, ‘kállay’ as they areknown to the Nez Percepeople, back to an area wherethey have been absent for fartoo long.

Our tribe has worked to-wards this day for nearlythree decades and it is won-derful to see the fruits ofthat labor.

In the late 1800s, an esti-mated twenty thousand adultcoho that returned to theColumbia River were pro-duced in the Grande Ronde/Wallowa river basin.

Poorly designed hatcheryprograms, habitat changeswithin the basin, constructionof mainstem dams, andoverfishing depleted cohoreturns.

The Nez Perce and Or-egon re-introduction projectis designed to provide mea-surable harvest for treatyand non-treaty fisheries alongthe Columbia River, re-estab-lish natural production of

coho in the Wallowa andLostine rivers, and encouragethe natural recolonization ofcoho into the Grande RondeRiver and its tributaries.

The re-introduction is thelatest in a series of tribalprojects that have reintro-duced coho throughout theColumbia River Basin.

Prior efforts include theYakama Nation’s upper Co-lumbia coho reintroductionprogram, and the Nez PerceTribe’s coho reintroductionprogram on the ClearwaterRiver in Idaho. Both of theseprograms have successfullyrebuilt naturally spawningcoho populations and bothrivers now support treaty andnon-treaty coho fisheries.

The Nez Perce Tribe’splanning for this reintroduc-tion began in 1988 with fund-ing from Bonneville PowerAdministration. Implementa-tion of this program was de-veloped through the U.S . v.Oregon Management Agree-men t and funded by theMitchell Act and PacificCoastal Salmon RecoveryFund.

The juvenile coho werereared at the Cascade Hatch-ery near Bonneville Dam andtransported to the LostineRiver for release.

The first adult coho fromthis release are anticipated toreturn to the Lostine River inthe fall of 2018.

At the National Mall inWashington, D.C. lastweek, Oregon SenatorJeff Merkley met withtribal leaders and activistsprotesting the plannedDakota Access Pipeline.

This was during theNative Nations RiseMarch on Washington.

Merkley met with theleaders at a tribal encamp-ment set up by the Wash-ington Monument. TheSenator made the follow-ing statement:

(Continued from page 1)Frequent conflicts

broke out between thenewcomers and the Indi-ans.

Ultimately, most tribes,weakened by introduceddisease and fearing exter-mination, signed treaties.

This typically entailedceding most of the tribes’land to the governmentand moving the Indians toa reservation.

Sometimes those trea-ties were not ratified andnever became legallybinding, yet the govern-ment kept the land andkept the Indians away.

Today, the Nativepeople's history remains

punctuated with unfulfilledpromises and unfinishedbusiness.

Yet most Indian popula-tions, education levels andeconomic power are on therise. Most Oregon tribescontribute significantly totheir surrounding communi-ties through natural re-source improvements, ca-sino jobs and philanthropicgiving.

Though many othersmay still not know muchabout them, the tribes ofOregon are increasinglymaking their presenceknown.

The new Oregon Expe-rience documentary BrokenTreaties offers an introduc-

tion to the Indian tribes ofOregon, the treaties theysigned and the land theylost. It examines the injus-tice endured by the tribesand illuminates a chapter ofNorthwest history that israrely talked about.

With Louie Pitt of theConfederated Tribes ofWarm Springs, the docu-mentary features interviewswith:

Robert J. Miller, law pro-fessor, tribal judge and au-thor.

Bobbie Connor, director,Tamastslikt Cultural Insti-tute of the Umatilla Tribe.

toric preservation officerwith the Grand RondeTribe.

With options dwindling,the Cheyenne River SiouxTribe this week was mount-ing a last-minute challengeto prevent oil from flowingthrough the Dakota AccessPipeline.

As thousands of Nativecitizens and their allies par-t ic ipated in a historicmarch and rally in Wash-ington, D.C., the tribe wasescalating a lawsuit in fed-eral court.

New papers filed late lastweek call for an injunctionto stop the pipeline while thecase makes its way throughthe appeals process.

“The tribe seeks an in-junction pending appeal re-questing that this court pre-vent the flow of oil throughthe Dakota Access Pipeline,which would result in theultimate harm to tribal mem-bers’ free exercise of reli-gion,” attorneys wrote in the18-page document.

The tribe and its citizenscontend the presence of thepipeline in the MissouriRiver renders the water im-pure for ceremonies likesweat lodges and coming ofage rites.

They also believe thecontroversial project fulfillsa prophecy of a “BlackSnake” that will destroy theLakota people and their wayof life.

The threat was notablyon display at the Native

Nations Rise event last week.A group of younger par-

ticipants, dubbing themselvesthe “Black Snake Killers,” setup a teepee in front of theTrump International Hotel,just blocks from the WhiteHouse, to show their opposi-tion to a pipeline that is allbut certain to become opera-tional unless the courts takeaction.

While Judge James E.Boasberg has shown sympa-thy toward the spiritual be-liefs of the tribe, he too hasrefused to stop the project.

In a decision issued onMarch 7, he said CheyenneRiver leaders waited too longto seek an injunction basedon religious grounds.

The tribe is now taking thematter to the D.C. CircuitCourt of Appeals, accordingto a notice that was filed onFriday.

The escalation marks thecase’s second journey to thehigher court, whose judgesonce imposed an injunctionthat halted construction ac-tivities near the Missouri inNorth Dakota.

But the situation haschanged dramatically in thelast few months. After beingdelayed by the Obama ad-ministration, Dakota Accessnow has permission, in theform of an easement, to drillunder the river and place thepipeline underneath.

Options dwindling asDAPL nears operation

The Federal District Courtof Oregon last week dis-missed a lawsuit brought byUnion Pacific Railroad, in-volving the railroad’s proposalto build more than four milesof new railroad tracksthrough the town of Mosier.

The site is adjacent to theColumbia River Gorge Na-tional Scenic Area.

Mosier was the site of afiery oil train derailment inJune 2016.

In its lawsuit, Union Pa-cific sought to exempt its pro-posed rail expansion projectfrom federal Gorge protec-tion laws and tribal treaties.

In a written order issuedlast week, District CourtJudge Ann Aiken dismissedthe lawsuit because the rail-road had failed to includethree Northwest IndianTreaty Tribes as defendantsin the case.

In January 2015, UnionPacific filed a land use appli-cation with Wasco Countypursuant to the ColumbiaRiver Gorge National ScenicArea Act, seeking to build asecond mainline track in theMosier area.

In November 2016, theWasco County Board ofCounty Commissioners de-nied the rail expansion projectbecause it would infringe ontribal treaty rights and violatefederal Gorge protection

For too long, the rights ofnative nations have been ig-nored and pushed aside infavor of powerful specialinterests.

This injustice has per-sisted throughout our his-tory, and nowhere do we seethis dynamic more clearlythan in the fight to stop theDakota Access Pipeline.

When a predominantlywhite community said thatthey didn’t want this pipelinerunning through their back-yards because of the high

risk of water contamina-tion, it was instead re-routed through IndianCountry—where it willnot only pose an equalthreat to drinking water,but also will disturb sacredsites.

This is unacceptable,and I applaud the coura-geous activists who haveled the fight to right thiswrong, both at StandingRock and now here onthe National Mall.

laws.The Wasco County Com-

missioners’ decision is cur-rently on appeal to the Co-lumbia River Gorge Commis-sion.

But rather than allow thatappeals process to proceed,in January 2017 Union Pa-cific sued the Wasco CountyCommissioners, the WascoCounty planning director, andsix of the thirteen GorgeCommissioners in federalcourt, arguing that the GorgeCommission’s appeal processshould be halted and the rail-road should be allowed toproceed with the project with-out any National Scenic Areapermits.

In her ruling of March 8,Judge Aiken dismissed UnionPacific’s lawsuit because therailroad had failed to namethe Confederated Tribes ofWarm Springs, the YakamaIndian Nation, and the Con-

federated Tribes of theUmatilla Indian Reservationas defendants in the case.

Because the Tribes’ treatyrights were at the heart of thecase, the railroad’s failure toname them as defendants re-quired dismissal of the casepursuant to federal courtrules.

In the lawsuit, Union Pa-cific had sought to enjoin theColumbia River GorgeCommission’s appeals pro-cess from proceeding.

Now that the railroad’s law-suit has been dismissed, theGorge Commission’s appealprocess will continue. An ap-peal hearing before the GorgeCommission is scheduled forJune 13, 2017.

“The Gorge Commissionis extremely pleased with theoutcome of this case andgrateful for the ColumbiaRiver Treaty Tribes’ assis-tance in getting this case dis-missed early in the litigation,”said Jeff Litwak, counsel forthe Columbia River GorgeCommission.

“The pending appeals ofWasco County’s decision areagain solidly back before theGorge Commission. We arelooking forward to receivingthe parties’ briefing, review-ing the record, and consider-ing the parties’ oral argu-ments.”

Court dismisses Union Pacific suitThe judge dismissedthe lawsuit because

the railroad failed toname the Confeder-

ated Tribes of WarmSprings, the Yakama

Nation and theUmatilla as defen-dants in the case.
