White House Announces Next Tribal Nations Conference, 16 December 2010
On Thursday, December 16, 2010, President Obama will host the second White House Tribal Nations Conference. This conference will provide leaders from the 565 federally recognized Tribes the opportunity to interact directly with the President and representatives from the highest levels of the Administration. Each federally recognized Tribe will be invited to send one representative to the conference.
I hope someone will speak to the issues and concerns of those of us who are undocumented and unrecognised. So many of us--our nations--have been disbanded or written out of history, due to government policies of genocide against us. Yet we are still here.
Please hold President Obama responsible for all the promises he gave during the elections. Let him know about many of the Reservations being a 3Rd world country and many are dying and freezing and hungary. Tell him about OUR ELDERS and lack of health care, and restitution OUR people THE FIRST PEOPLE of this Turtle Island are entitled to the best America has to offer. Wado/Aho
