RELIGIOUS INTOLERANCE AGAINST INDIAN RELIGION:
"NATIVE AMERICAN PRISONERS' RELIGIOUS FREEDOM"
Submitted to United States Special Rapporteur on Religious Intolerance Mr. Abdelfattah Amor by Len Foster, National Coordinator, NNAPRAC. (Washington DC, January 24, 1998) The National Native American Prisoners Rights Advocacy Coalition was formed in June 1995 in Boulder, Colorado. The NNAPRAC is a coalition of Indian Nations, organizations and concerned activists who are working within the U.S. prison systems and they include the Native American Rights Fund, National Congress of American Indians, International Indian Treaty Council, Navajo Nation, Oglala and Rosebud Sioux Tribes, and Native American Church of North America. The Co-Chairmen of this coalition are President Albert Hale of the Navajo Nation and President Ron Allen of the National Congress of American Indians. The primary purpose of the coalition is to seek increased protection for the free exercise of religion and culture for Native American prisoners in the corrections setting, which has been identified as a pressing criminal justice, rehabilitation, and human rights issue nationally of paramount importance to Indian Nations. For many years the paramount human rights problem of Native Americans who are incarcerated has been the denial of their rights to practice traditional Native American religion in Federal and State Prisons. The long-standing criminal justice problem which implicates federally protected rights was documented in congressional hearings as early as 1978 during the passage of the American Indian Religious Freedom Act. They were also documented in the oversight hearings on the free exercise of religion problems of Native Americans by the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs and by the U.S. House Subcommittee on Native American Affairs (1992-1993).

Native American Rights in Parks Legislation
American Indian Religious Freedom Act, 1978 - This act protects and preserves the inherent and constitutional right of the American Indian, Eskimo, Aleut, and Native Hawaiian people to exercise their traditional religions. Other than requiring an evaluation of federal procedures and policies, the statute imposes no specific procedural duties on federal agencies. Religious concerns should be accommodated or addressed through implementation of the National Environmental Policy Act or other appropriate statutes. Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), 1990 - This act creates a process under which federal agencies and museums receiving federal funds are to inventory Native American human remains and objects in their care, determine lineal descent or cultural affiliation of items; and undertake repatriation or other appropriate means of disposition of the cultural items. In March, 1992, the secretary of the Interior appointed a NAGPRA Review Committee to advise the secretary on regulations and to assist in implementation of the statute. In June, 1992, the first notice of inventory completion appeared in the Federal Register

COMMON THEMES AND QUESTIONS ABOUT THE USE OF "INDIAN" LOGOS By Barbara Munson, a woman of the Oneida Nation, living in Mosinee, WI "Indian" logos and nicknames create, support and maintain stereotypes of a race of people. When such cultural abuse is supported by one or many of society's institutions,
it constitutes institutional racism. It is not conscionable that Wisconsin's Public Schools be the vehicle of institutional racism. The logos, along with other societal abuses and stereotypes separate, marginalize, confuse, intimidate and harm Native American children and create barriers to their learning throughout their school experience. Additionally, the logos teach non-Indian children that its all right to participate in culturally abusive behavior. Children spend a great deal of their time in school, and schools have a very significant impact on their emotional, spiritual, physical and intellectual development. As long as such logos remain, both Native American and non-Indian children are learning to tolerate racism in our schools. The following illustrate the common questions and statements that I have encountered in trying to provide education about the "Indian" logo issue. "We have always been proud of our "Indians"."

ABSTRACTS Exploring Korean Values
Steven R. Brown and Byung-ok Kil
The contours of the Korean value system are examined both extensively and through an intensive single-case study in which a representative personality is invited to appraise a set of historical figures under various conditions of instruction focused on Confucian and other values. The Q sample is comprised of the names of 50 historical and contemporary figures (e.g., Kim Ok-Gyun, assassinated reformer of the late Yi dynasty; Chun Bong-Joon, religious leader associated with peasant revolts in the late 19th century; Lee Hwang, 15th century Confucian scholar, et al.). Initially, 25 Korean students Q sorted the 50 names from appealing to unappealing, producing two factors. Intensive studies involved Q-sort appraisals in terms of values such as In (Chinese Jen , humanity, virtuousness), Eui (Chinese Yi , righteousness and sense of duty), Yea (Chinese Li , propriety), and others. Discussion considers sources of stability and change in Korean values.

Shamanism
When you hear the word "shamanism," what images jiffy-pop into your mind's eye? Most folks picture feather headdresses, buffalo hides, medicine wheels and dream-catchers—all images associated with Native American cultures. But contrary to popular opinion, a "shaman" is not an Indian medicine man, and "shamanism" is not a Native American religion. In fact, many Native Americans find the terms "shaman" and "shamanism" offensive. The word "shaman" actually originates among the natives of Siberia, where it describes a specialized type of holy person. The shamans of Siberia interact with deities and spirits not only with prayer, ritual and offerings, but also through direct contact with the spirits themselves. With the aid of rhythmic drumming and chanting, the shaman enters a very deep or "ecstatic" trance. (In discussions of shamanism, the word "ecstasy" is used in its original sense, from the Greek roots ex and histanai meaning "out of place" or "out of the physical” —in other words an out-of-body mystical state) This trance frees the shaman's consciousness from the body, allowing it to

BOB ABERNETHY , anchor: Members of 12 Native American tribes assembled recently in Terre Haute, Indiana, in what was called a "Gathering of the People." Its purpose: to celebrate the connection of all the tribes, some from as far away as Montana, Oklahoma, and Kansas, and their connection to the earth and to God.
The ceremony is described by Tim Tieyah, a member of the Comanche tribe.
TIM TIEYAH (Comanche Tribe Member): There's no other people I know who has more profound respect of where we stand on this earth. Some of our songs relate to Mother Earth. We come from Mother Earth and it's a cinch we're going back to Mother Earth. So we pray and we sing and we dance and we sanctify this immediate area that we dance and sing on.
The drum is a tool that we use that the Almighty gave us. He gave it to us when we were first made a people. When I sit at the drum, we start with a prayer and we end with a prayer. I ask for strength that these songs will come to me, the songs that God gave our forefathers, and that we can sing them in the right way, because you have to know them by your mind and your heart. There are no books for these songs.
We feel everything has a spirit: you, I, these trees, these animals. Sometimes, when I'm perplexed and have so many problems, I pray and humble myself. And my grandfather comes to me and gives me a direction and strengthens me.

A Brief History of the Native American Church
by Jay Fikes
from One Nation Under God
Veneration of the small spineless cactus called peyote probably began immediately after the first hunter-gatherers discovered its remarkable effects. The Native American deification of the plant is estimated to be about 10,000 years old. Peyote cactus buttons uncovered in Shumla Cave in southern Texas have been radiocarbon dated to 5,000 B.C. The Huichol Indians of northwestern Mexico still use peyote sacramentally. Their peyote pilgrimage may have been in place by 200 A.D. Scholars consider it the oldest sacramental use of peyote in North America.
Huichols revere Peyote as the heart, soul, and memory of their Creator, Deer-Person. Huichol healers and singers achieve such union with their Creator, as incarnated in Peyote, that Peyote speaks through them, as here:
If you come to know me intimately, you shall be like me and feel like I do. Although you may not see me, I shall always be your elder brother. I am called the flower of Deer-Person. Have no fear, for I shall always be the flower of God.(1)
Deer-Person, the supreme teacher of the Huichol, teaches songs, reveals himself to shamanic healers through his Peyote spirit, and punishes those who violate his moral precepts. "It is because of the wisdom of Deer-Person," we are told, "that shamans exist. That is how we Huichols are able to diagnose diseases with our visionary ability and soul, which are the eyes of Deer-Person. That is our method of curing."(2)

Offering Smoke: The Sacred Pipe and Native American Religion Paper, Jordan
Moscow, Idaho: The University of Idaho Press.
ISBN: 0-89301-126-6 paperback
Description: Paperback, xx + 161 pages. Contents: List of Illustrations, Maps and Table, Preface, Acknowledgments, 6 chapters, Appendix 1: Notes on Methodology, Appendix 2: Data on Sacred Pipes, references, index. Excerpt(s): Historically, perhaps the most striking feature of aboriginal religion in the Americas is its ritual use of tobacco. As one eighteenth-century observer noted, "All the Indian nations we have any acquaintance with frequently use it on the most religious occasions." Elsewhere in the world, practices can be found similar to many of those in native North America, including sweat ceremonials and shamanic trances, but the focus on tobacco as the ultimate sacred plant, ubiquitous throughout the Americas save for the Arctic, is unique. For more than a millennium, the sacred pipe has been the major means of communal smoke offering over much of the continent, and its use has become the paramount Native North American ritual. In this brilliant exploration of the history, mythology, ritual, and symbolism of the sacred pipe, author Jordan Paper breaks new ground in assessing the importance of the pipe in Native American religion. With exemplary sensitivity and thoroughness he traces the routes of types of pipes through the ethnography and ethnohistory of their users, developing in the process the most sophisticated analysis to date of the cosmology and symbolisms associated with them.

Vol. 7, No. 1 April 2003 Native American Religion and Film:
Interviews with Chris Eyre and Sherman Alexie
by Julien R. Fielding Abstract [1] For decades Hollywood films have cast the American Indian as the savage, the medicine man and the noble warrior, stereotypes that either demonize or romanticize a people. Ritual and religion rarely receive much better treatment. One of the reasons for this poor representation is that filmmakers are coming from a white perspective. Director Chris Eyre and writer-director Sherman Alexie, both American Indians, have emerged in the last decade to rectify the situation, jointly creating the film Smoke Signals, a buddy road picture that forces the protagonists to rethink Indian identity and the bonds that tie them. Eyre and Alexie examine how their films deal with religion. Article 2] Sweat lodges, peace pipes, peyote journeys to the spirit world, sun dances and animal totems are all part of American Indian religion. We know this because we have seen

Native American Religion Native American Religion Native American Doctrine Home Ritual Myth Ethics ... References
Native Americans usually didn't really develop their religious doctrine. In their time they needed to focus on what they use and do in nature and spirit so they really didn't have time to investigate. They got tradition, spiritual experiences of ordinary people and religious specialist, judgment of the elders, and the welfare of the people all came together in different way in each generation to make Native American religion. Dream and visions were a very important part of religion and beliefs. One example is the 19th century movement known as the Ghost Dance, which was from the Lakota in the annihilation at the Wounded Knee. This example came from the west from one man's vision of the white race's defeat and the buffalo's return.

He is represented in the logo for the school and his religious symbols are placed all over the building and taught as lessons to students. They love it, they defend these symbols and they honor them. BUT TELL US WHO PERMANENTLY HONORS JESUS IN PUBLIC SCHOOL? An important Christian Spiritual leader is banned along with his religious symbols. Now we ask is this fair or right to do to Christians and their religious symbols? WHAT DOES EQUALITY MEAN WHEN YOUR TAXES ARE BEING USED TO PROMOTE NATIVE AMERICAN RELIGIOUS SYMBOLISM?

Material History of American Religion Project
The Built Environment of American Religion:
The State of the Art
Peter W. Williams Until recently, the study of America's religious architecture and landscape was something that had largely fallen through the cracks of academe. The main problem is that such a study requires interdisciplinary (or multidisciplinary) competencies and interests that not many people have heretofore possessed. (I discuss this further in an autobiographical context in "Interpreting America's Religious Landscape and Architecture" in Chronicle of Higher Education 43:46 (7/25/97), B8-B9). The scholarly slot where such investigations might best be expected to flourish is American Studies, which unfortunately, as the ASA's annual programs demonstrate, has not exactly been a hotbed of ferment in religious studies. This may be changing, however, as will be evident in passing in what follows, as doctoral students at a variety of institutions are pursuing themes of religious building. For a quick survey of available literature, we might divide it up as follows:
