Abstract:

Non-Indians have long used Indian reservations as dumping grounds for environmental toxics. My preliminary research suggests an urgent need for further study of the impact of the US-government-owned McAlester Army Ammunitions Plant in the Choctaw Nation on the health of my people and homeland. The plant detonates 45,000 pounds of explosives daily, and tests of the soil, water, and air reveal high levels of cancer-causing toxics. Indians in the area experience numerous health problems, including elevated rates of cancer. Additional research would open the door for environmental remediation and prevention of further harm to tribal members and the environment.

Abstract:

Suicide continues to be a leading cause of mortality for young people. Given persistent intersecting forms of disadvantage, Native American adolescents are especially vulnerable to mental health adversities and other suicide risk factors. The Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians (MBCI) implemented the Choctaw Youth Resilience Initiative (CYRI), a five-year SAMHSA-funded project that began in 2019. This study uses Choctaw student pre-test/post-test survey data to examine the effectiveness of the Hazelden Lifelines Suicide Prevention Training curriculum for youth. A lagged post-test design was used, whereby post-surveys were administered at least one month after program completion. Several intriguing results were observed. First, the lagged post-test model was subject to some pre-to-post attrition, although such attrition was comparable to a standard pre/post design. Second, analyses of completed surveys using means indicated various beneficial effects associated with the Lifelines curriculum implementation. The greatest benefit of the program was a significant change in student perceptions concerning school readiness in response to a suicidal event. Some opportunities for program improvement were also observed. Our study sheds new light on suicide prevention training programs that can be adapted according to Native American youth culture. Program implementation and evaluation implications are discussed in light of these findings.

“There is no there there” – Urban Indians and The New Contemporary in Indigenous American Art – around Identity and Authenticity in American Pop Culture Native American artists and writers are constantly reimagining their narratives, and addressing context, community, and intersection with others. Based on few examples: Tommy Orange (Cheyenne / Arapaho), James Luna (Payómkawichum / Ipi), Wendy Red Star (Apsáalooke (Crow)) and Steven Paul Judd (Choctaw / Kiowa) author of article examines how their art undermines the conventional view on a stereotypical image of Native Arts and how their strategies are opening a new view on Urban Indians. How does artistic work around their own identity is transforming a social perception of indigenous minorities.

Abstract:

Youth suicide risks have been on the rise or persistently elevated for decades, and Native American communities are especially vulnerable. This study provides a promising framework for suicide prevention among underserved populations in the U.S., especially Native American communities in states lacking strong suicide prevention supports. Our investigation reports the evaluation results of the Question–Persuade–Refer (QPR) gatekeeper training program, a key component of the SAMHSA-funded Choctaw Youth Resilience Initiative (CYRI) implemented by the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians (MBCI). QPR trains adult gatekeepers to identify youth at risk of suicide and refer them to certified mental health service providers. Standardized QPR pre-test and post-test training surveys were administered at in-person trainings delivered to youth-serving MBCI organization leaders and staff. Statistical analyses of all survey items indicate that QPR gatekeeper trainings significantly enhanced the knowledge of prevention practices and risk identification skills for the MBCI trainees. The robust evidence of positive changes revealed in this study suggests that QPR can be an effective suicide prevention program for underserved minority communities, especially Native American populations in rural states where suicide is a persistent and leading cause of mortality.

Abstract:

Background The prevalence and socioeconomic burden of childhood obesity and diabetes has increased rapidly in the United States in the last 30 years. American Indians have the highest prevalence of type 2 diabetes among newly diagnosed youth in the country. Contributing factors include environmental, behavioral, and genetic components. Some American Indian tribal communities have explored innovative ways to combat this epidemic including collaborations with academic centers on community-based research. Method From 2012 to 2017, the University of Oklahoma Health Science Center and the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma partnered on a National Institutes of Health–funded project to determine if financial incentives would elicit an increase in physical activity in Native youth. This was a community-based behavioral intervention for overweight or obese American Indian youth ages 11–20 living in a rural community at risk for developing diabetes. Results Tribal leaders and staff identified culturally appropriate strategies to aid implementation of the trial in their community. Their identified implementation strategies helped standardize the study in order to maintain study integrity. The mutually agreed strategies included co-review of the study by tribal and University research review boards (but designation of the Choctaw Nation review board as the “Board of Record”), training of community-based staff on research ethics and literacy, standardization of the informed consent process by videotaping all study information, creation of a viable and culturally appropriate timeline for study implementation, adapting tribal wellness center operations to accommodate youth, and development of effective two-way communication through training sessions, on-site coordination, and bi-monthly conference calls. Conclusion In an effort to partner collectively on a randomized clinical research trial to combat childhood diabetes, tribal leaders and staff implemented strategies that resulted in a culturally appropriate and organized community-based behavioral intervention research project.

Abstract:

This paper explores the role of race in the construction of tribal rolls for the Choctaw Nation of Indian Territory under the Dawes Act. Examination of two examples, enrollment of Choctaws in Mississippi and arguments presented in the 1907 hearings before the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs on the status of Choctaws of Indian and African American heritage, demonstrates that policymakers' primary concern in deciding the fate of mixedrace individuals was not the determination of Indian blood, so as to enroll them, but of African American blood, so as to exclude them. With this approach, members of the Dawes Commission used Indian policy to uphold the color line. The Choctaw Nation also drew sharp racial lines. Their concern, however, was not racial purity, but citizenship and tribal sovereignty. Attorneys for the mixed-blood claimants proffered a definition which they believed to be biological—they focused on their clients' percentage of Indian blood—while the Choctaw Nation's lawyers held to a political and legal definition embedded in notions of children's legitimacy, as granted through marriages sanctioned by the Choctaw state. Thus the same racial enrollment policy—exclusion of blacks—served two different functions in the implementation of allotment.

Abstract:

Abstract In September 1950, U.S. Senator Robert S. Kerr (D-Oklahoma) wrote to Indian leaders across the United States in order to “make some determination with regard to whether or not we are going to have an early winter and whether or not we may expect a hard winter.” Even though he had access to U.S. Weather Bureau predictions and other scientific data, Kerr and his administrative assistant, Ben Dwight, a member of the Choctaw Nation and its onetime Principal Chief, wrote that they “would like to know what some of the Indians in the various sections of the nation think about our coming winter probabilities.” Kerr and Dwight indicated they had a “high regard for the old Indian ways of determining such things—because they are practical and have always been able to make some very accurate predictions.” From 33 letters sent to tribes in 1950 (including 9 to tribes in Oklahoma) 3 responses were known to have been received; a follow-up letter-writing campaign in October 1951 was more fruitful, producing 8 known responses. This paper examines the tribal responses and explores the life and possible motivations of Senator Kerr, an influential man on the U.S. political stage during 1949–63, in seeking this information. This research is part of a broader field investigation that seeks to understand how Native Americans in Oklahoma conceptualize weather and climate, including traditional ways, and how their knowledge is helping to inform new efforts to farm sustainably and create food sovereignty.

Abstract:

abstract: Understandings of gender underpinned every encounter between eighteenth-century Indigenous and colonial leaders. They met each other not just as warriors, traders, or diplomats but also as men . Keeping this in mind, this article examines diplomatic discourse between French colonial officials of Louisiana and Choctaw headmen to understand the underlying tensions in their long-standing alliance. This analysis sheds new light on critical decisions made by both the French and Choctaws about their military strategies and their commitments to defending each other. When one studies several flashpoints in their alliance during the Natchez and Chickasaw Wars, French and Choctaw understandings of masculinity and its entanglements with war, status, and alliance come into focus. Because the Choctaws held the upper hand in the relationship, they typically directed how the often-resentful French performed masculinity; frequently the French did so on Choctaw terms.

Abstract:

In September 1830 the U.S. government negotiated the Treaty of Dancing Rabbit Creek with some leaders of the Choctaw Nation. The treaty reinforced the congressional Indian Removal Act of 1830, which paved the way for the large-scale physical removal of tens of thousands of tribal people of the southeast, including many of the Choctaw. It provided for the “removal” of the Choctaw from their traditional homeland in Mississippi to Indian Territory. Over a two-year period, from 1831 to 1833, roughly thirteen thousand to fifteen thousand Choctaw, or about half of the tribe, moved to the region we now call southeastern Oklahoma

Abstract:

Edwin Forrest, then a not-yet-famous actor, spent the summer of 1825 living in the greater New Orleans area among the Choctaw. It has been alleged that he spent these months with his friend Choctaw chief Pushmataha. From this relationship, Forrest learned how to play “Indian,” acquiring knowledge that informed his later interpretation of the title character in John August Stone's 1829 play Metamora; or, The Last of the Wampanoags. Accounts of Forrest's time with Pushmataha appear in biographies of the actor and critical assessments of his acting. In none of these texts is the fact of their relationship disputed.

Abstract:

AbstractChickasaw, Choctaw, Cherokee, Muscogee, and Seminole citizens employed the Indian Territory exhibits at the 1904 Louisiana Purchase Exposition to advance the separate statehood movement. Increasingly shut out of the formal political realm, they adopted creative measures to exert their political will, including participating in the world’s fair. Employing insights from settler-colonial theory and public history, this paper argues that the politics of display expanded the agency of a group marginalized from political representation. The U.S. government, pressured by the territory’s growing population of non-Native settlers, had begun planning for statehood, passing the 1898 Curtis Act to force allotment and dissolve the Five Tribes’ governments by 1906. To protect their land and sovereignty, a cohort of Native citizens pursued statehood for Indian Territory separate from Oklahoma Territory. Although joint statehood won out, separate statehood advocates succeeded in creating exhibits that centered on the survival of Native nations. They also articulated an Indigenous conception of citizenship, developing an imaginative vision for a future in which self-determination and U.S. citizenship could converge in a Native state. This represented a novel contribution to ongoing debates over how to integrate remaining western territories into the United States and how to incorporate diverse peoples within the citizenry.

Abstract:

As the lifeblood of land and communities, water will forever remain at the center of people’s lives in the arid Southwestern United States and, given the scarcity of water resources, at the center of their disputes. In Oklahoma, disputes over water seem unending with entities in North Texas seeking access to desperately needed water supplies in the Red River Basin, and Indian Nations claiming tribal rights to water in southeastern Oklahoma. Given the recent decision in Tarrant Regional Water District v. Herrmann, Oklahoma seems to have at least settled, for the time being, one dispute, leaving North Texas entities looking to develop additional water supplies elsewhere. But, Oklahoma’s battle with the Chocktaw and Chickasaw Nations over rights to water in southeastern Oklahoma appears to just be heating up as drought conditions do the same.

Abstract:

Reżim prawny ochrony dziedzictwa kultury w Indiach Uprawnienia do stanowienia praw dotyczących ochrony dziedzictwa kultury w Indiach są podzielone między parlament i stanowe ciała ustawodawcze na mocy Konstytucji Indii. Chociaż Indie mają wiele obiektów historycznych, pomników i tradycji kulturowych, twórcy Konstytucji Indii położyli większy nacisk na ochronę mniejszości, ich praw kulturowych i języków. W rezultacie istnieją pewne prawa podstawowe, które gwarantują ochronę osobom mającym „odmienny język, pismo lub kulturę”, dając im prawo do ich zachowania. Istnieją również podstawowe obowiązki, zgodnie z którymi każdy obywatel musi m.in. dbać o bogate dziedzictwo kultury Indii i chronić je. Archeologiczny aspekt indyjskiego dziedzictwa kultury wywodzi się od Brytyjczyków. Pierwsze prawa dotyczące ochrony dziedzictwa były kolonialne, a niektóre z nich nadal obowiązują. Prawa ustanowione w niepodległych Indiach również zawierają te same podstawy. Jeśli chodzi o egzekwowanie przepisów, Indie dobrze sobie radzą, odzyskując swoje zabytki, które zostały skradzione i przemycone za granicę. Niemniej jednak mniej popularne elementy dziedzictwa kultury nadal cierpią z powodu opieszałości zarówno wykonawczej, jak i publicznej. Sądy w Indiach aktywnie chronią zabytki. Jednocześnie potrzebna jest większa świadomość społeczeństwa, a także pewne zmiany w polityce, ponieważ Indie chcą zostać światowym liderem w turystyce do 2047 r.

Abstract:

Background American Indian adults have the highest prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2D) in any racial or ethnic group and experience high rates of comorbidities. Uncontrolled cardiometabolic risk factors—insulin resistance, resulting in impaired glucose tolerance, dyslipidemia, and hypertension—increase the risk of mortality. Mortality is significantly reduced by glucose- and lipid-lowering and antihypertensive medication adherence. Medication adherence is low among American Indian adults living in non–Indian Health Service health care settings. Virtually nothing is known about the nature and extent of medication adherence among reservation-dwelling American Indian adults who primarily receive their medications without cost from Indian Health Service or tribal facilities. Electronic health records (EHRs) offer a rich but underused data source regarding medication adherence and its potential to predict cardiometabolic control indicators (C-MCIs). With the support of the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma (CNO), we address this oversight by using EHR data generated by this large, state-of-the-art tribal health care system to investigate C-MCIs. Objective Our specific aims are to determine, using 2018 EHR data, the bivariate relationships between medication adherence and C-MCIs, demographics, and comorbidities and each C-MCI and demographics and comorbidities; develop machine learning models for predicting future C-MCIs from the previous year’s medication adherence, demographics, comorbidities, and common laboratory tests; and identify facilitators of and barriers to medication adherence within the context of social determinants of health (SDOH), EHR-derived medication adherence, and C-MCIs. Methods Drawing on the tribe’s EHR (2018-2021) data for CNO patients with T2D, we will characterize the relationships among medication adherence (to glucose- and lipid-lowering and antihypertensive drugs) and C-MCIs (hemoglobin A1c ≤7%, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol <100 mg/dL, and systolic blood pressure <130 mm Hg); patient demographics (eg, age, sex, SDOH, and residence location); and comorbidities (eg, BMI ≥30, cardiovascular disease, and chronic kidney disease). We will also characterize the association of each C-MCI with demographics and comorbidities. Prescription and pharmacy refill data will be used to calculate the proportion of days covered with medications, a typical measure of medication adherence. Using machine learning techniques, we will develop prediction models for future (2019-2021) C-MCIs based on medication adherence, patient demographics, comorbidities, and common laboratory tests (eg, lipid panel) from the previous year. Finally, key informant interviews (N=90) will explore facilitators of and barriers to medication adherence within the context of local SDOH. Results Funding was obtained in early 2022. The University of Florida and CNO approved the institutional review board protocols and executed the data use agreements. Data extraction is in process. We expect to obtain results from aims 1 and 2 in 2024. Conclusions Our findings will yield insights into improving medication adherence and C-MCIs among American Indian adults, consistent with CNO’s State of the Nation’s Health Report 2017 goal of reducing T2D and its complications.

Abstract:

This study focuses primarily on the historical and archaeological investigations of Charity Hall, a Christian mission school that operated within the Chickasaw Nation in northeastern Mississippi between 1820 and 1830. This school and others during this time were funded by the United States government through the 1819 Civilization Fund Act, so I argue that these stations served as outposts for American colonialism before the federal government shifted its Indian policy to one of removal. Additionally, I argue that it is impossible to adequately understand the operation of individual mission schools apart from their networks, which I theorize here as “missionscapes.” The historic component also, therefore, focuses on a broader missionscape that encompassed both the Chickasaw Nation and the neighboring Choctaw Nation during the 1820s and 1830s. More precisely, the historical and archaeological data marshalled here are presented to answer my primary research question: what material tools and practices did missionaries use to “civilize” Native American children and their families prior to Indian removal? One of the chief ways that Chickasaw and Choctaw children were being “civilized” by the missionaries at Charity Hall was through the use of material culture. Their lives were regimented around an alien work schedule, they were clothed in materials procured by charitable societies, and they sat around a dinner table with ceramic and metal implements produced in faraway places, some coming all the way from east Asia. The pastors used practical mastery of both educational and mechanical “arts” to civilize the children in accordance with the wishes of the United States government. Here processes of practice and materiality took on a colonial character due to their being encouraged and enforced in a context where the balance of power was shifting from the Indians to the Americans. The American elites found the Christian missionaries to be ready-made agents to “civilize” Indians and spread political influence internally within both the Chickasaw Nation and the Choctaw Nation. The mission experience, however, ultimately proved to be too costly and slow and therefore paved the way for the removal policies of the 1830s and the abandonment of the “civilization” project altogether.

Abstract:

The clash between Confederates and Yankees at Pea Ridge, Arkansas, in 1862 is famous as the battle that saved Missouri for the Union, preventing a Southern army from a planned invasion to drive through the state and capture St. Louis. But a less well-known fact is that Pea Ridge was the only major battle of the Civil War in which Native American troops participated in significant numbers. About 1,000 Indians from the Choctaw, Chickasaw, Creek and Cherokee tribes fought for the South at Pea Ridge, and some might have scalped dead and wounded Union troops. This article examines stories about the battle from a sample of both Northern and Southern newspapers with the intent to shed light on the coverage of Native Americans during the Civil War. The article concludes that the type and quantity of coverage of Indians at Pea Ridge depended upon whether the journalists were Southern or Northern. The article thus adds further support to the notion that the Civil War press served as an arm of the government, and the stories of war correspondents of both sides have to be evaluated with the knowledge that facts were often secondary to supporting the war effort

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE To examine HbA1c levels and adherence to oral glucose-lowering medications and their association with future HbA1c levels among American Indian adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D) receiving medications at no cost from a tribal health care system. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Tribal citizens with T2D who used Choctaw Nation Health Services Authority (CNHSA) and Pharmacies and had HbA1c data during 2017–2018 were included in this study. Medication adherence (proportion of days covered [PDC] ≥0.80) was calculated using 2017 CNHSA electronic health record data. RESULTS Of the 74,000 tribal citizens living on tribal lands, 4,560 were eligible; 32% had HbA1c at or below target (≤7%), 36% were above target (>7 to ≤9%), and 32% were uncontrolled (>9%) in 2017. The percentage of patients with PDC ≥0.80 was 66% for those using biguanides, 72% for sulfonylureas, 75% for dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors, and 83% for sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors. The proportion of patients with HbA1c at or below target increased slightly from 32% in 2017 to 42% in 2018. Higher average PDC in 2017 was associated with lower HbA1c levels in 2018 (β = −1.143; P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Medication adherence was higher than that found in previous studies using self-report methods in American Indian populations, although a smaller proportion of patients had HbA1c at or below target relative to U.S. adults with T2D. Medication adherence was associated with improved HbA1c levels for most oral glucose-lowering medication classes. Future studies of American Indians should use both longitudinal prescription data from both electronic health records and pharmacy refills.

Abstract:

Introduction: American Indians (AIs) have high rates of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and comorbidities. Mortality risk is increased by uncontrolled cardio-metabolic factors and significantly reduced by antihypertensive, glucose- and lipid-lowering medication adherence. Medication adherence is low among AIs living in non-Indian Health Services (IHS) healthcare settings, but little is known about medication adherence among AIs who primarily receive their medications from IHS/tribal facilities. The study aim was to identify cardio-metabolic control factors (hemoglobin A1c [HbA1c], low density lipoprotein [LDL-C], and systolic blood pressure [SBP]) and antihypertensive, glucose- and lipid-lowering medication adherence in adults with T2D who use Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma (CNO) Health Services. Methods: Enrolled CNO tribal members with T2D over 18 years of age with at least one pharmacy visit and at least one HbA1c measure in 2017 (N=5,970, mean age 58.0±13.4, 52% female) were included in this descriptive pilot study. We used the earliest values of HbA1c, LDL-C and SBP in the measurement period. Medication adherence (proportion of days covered [PDC]) was calculated using 2017 CNO electronic health record (EHR) data. Medication classes included biguanides, statins, and ACE/ARBs. Results: Fifty-six percent had HbA1c measurements above the target of 7%, 42% had LDL-C greater than 100mg/dL, and 63% had SBP above target of 130 mmHg. Thirty-six percent had both HbA1c and SBP levels above target. The percentage of patients with PDC ≥.80 was 63% for biguanides, 66% for statins, and 70% for ACE/ARBs. Discussion/Conclusions: Previous studies have reported similar findings for cardio-metabolic control factors as well as higher medication adherence rates. Future studies should focus on examining prescription and pharmacy refill data longitudinally and should include a subgroup of patients to understand facilitators of and barriers to medication adherence not available within EHR data.

Abstract:

A new summer camp for high school seniors at Oklahoma State University (OSU) has brought together American Indian students from several states to study enrichment topics in mathematics. Twenty-six high school seniors from fourteen American Indian tribes participated in the American Indian Science and Engineering Society (AISES) camp at Oklahoma State University during summer 1994. The students came from Oklahoma, New Mexico, North Dakota, California, Arkansas, North Carolina, Arizona, Montana, Tennessee, and Alaska. The tribes represented included Arapahoe, Chippewa, Choctaw, Tliogit, Pueblo, Cheyenne, Potawatomi, Sioux, Navajo, Wichita, Lumbee, and Hoopa.
