>> The Starfleet Gazette will not be endorsing a candidate in the upcoming election for president of the United Federation of Planets. This decision was not made lightly, but neither of the two candidates—decorated Starship Voyager Captain Kathryn Janeway or The Borg—has shown us a real path to endorsement, and we must stay true to our priorities: journalistic integrity and not pissing off The Borg. <<
Well, good! Presenting both sides of the argument is SO important, especially when one side hides in darkness, constantly denies evidence, and wants to rule rather than represent.
There are good people ... um, things ... on both sides!
A school banned Indigenous students from using their language.
A century later, it’s teaching Cherokee
A precursor to Duke University once stripped students of their culture. -- Cherokee teachers are leading the change
Between 1882 and 1887, some two dozen children from the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians were enrolled in #Trinity #College’s #Industrial #Indian boarding school.
The school, which operated about 20 miles south of #Greensboro, North Carolina, alongside the college’s traditional liberal arts program, received federal funding in pursuit of its goal to #assimilate #Indigenous #students.
The students, who ranged in age from eight to 18, were forced to work and wear #western #clothing, and were #prohibited from #speaking #Cherokee or otherwise maintaining their traditions,
while other students who attended Trinity College were instructed in the liberal arts.
In 1887, the boarding school closed.
Trinity College eventually moved to #Durham and, in 1924, it became #Duke #University.
❇️ Now, the school at which Cherokee and other Indigenous students were forcibly stripped of their culture is being used to help revitalize the Cherokee language.
The classes are important not only because of Duke and the Cherokee people’s shared history,
but also because ♦️more speakers are necessary to prevent the Cherokee language from going #extinct.
In 2019, the three federally recognized Cherokee tribes declared a state of emergency for the language.
“There are approximately 2,000 fluent first-language Cherokee speakers left,
and each Cherokee tribe is
💥losing fluent speakers at faster rates than new Cherokee speakers are developed,” 💥
the declaration reads.
Duke is partnering with #Vanderbilt University in Tennessee and the University of #Virginia for the promotion of 🔸less commonly taught languages, 🔸
such as #Haitian Creole, #Turkish and #Malagasy.
The Cherokee language classes mark the first time an Indigenous American language is being taught at Duke
The 100th anniversary of the #Indian #Citizenship #Act has garnered little fanfare.
Only a handful of news articles and events have commemorated the centennial of the law giving U.S. citizenship to Native Americans.
Perhaps that’s unsurprising. The legislation has little relevance to most American citizens,
and many Native Americans were dismayed when President Calvin Coolidge signed it into law in June 1924.
🔸American citizenship was not an aspiration for the first peoples of the United States, whose primary political allegiance was to their own nations.
🔸Meanwhile, the Indian Citizenship Act was not a gift or benefit to Native Americans.
♦️It was part of a #coercive larger effort to #assimilate #Native #Americans into U.S. society.
From nation to assimilation
For centuries after Europeans colonized North America in the 16th century, Native Americans sought to remain separate and distinct from the settlers.
For a while, the U.S. government reinforced that intentional separation.
🔸From 1820 to 1850, the federal government had a policy of forcibly removing Native Americans from their homelands and segregating them on reservations in the Indian Territory, now known as Oklahoma.
🔸By keeping Native Americans far from towns and cities, the U.S. hoped to maintain the distinct identities of tribes as sovereign nations
– and ensure Native peoples remained non-Americans.
♦️As U.S. ambitions for expansion drove the new nation to push farther west, however, the nation began working to assimilate Native people into American society.
♦️The U.S. wanted more land, including in the Indian Territory.

A federal study documents the 150-year history of “Indian boarding schools,” in which children were systematically taken from their parents—and calls for a federal apology.
Dear friends and bots, 🦞
Can you tell the difference? It used to be a lot #simpler. Often I find bots #provide #helpful info or quotes that are useful. People are much messier, #complex, #multilayered and to be preferred. Or not? 
However, if as messy/messianic and #chameleon natured as the average #wer-lobster, then what? 
Best to:
- use #uncommon #sense (if available) 
- gibber for no #apparent #reason 
- wear a tin foil hat for the aliens to tune in to our #brain weaves (as necessary) 
... meanwhile, in a galaxy not so far away:
1. Mx #Information available
2. Bubble meet pin
3. All roads also lead away from Rome
4. Own space, own home, own #rites
Have a great day everyone who is able or not abled. Support #kin, #neo and a better Matrix of #tech-savvy #rebellion. Resistance is feudal. #Assimilate the Borg ...
More and longer week endings ...
