Guest Opinion. The judiciary should be above reproach and when a judge falls from grace, it is alarming. When the judge comes from the highest court in a state, it is cause for particular alarm.

Opinion. Late last Monday afternoon, my daughter sent me a text with a link to a Topeka, Kansas television station story with the headline, “Prairie Band lands $30M contract for ICE ‘mega centers." As a tribal citizen of the Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation, I felt as if I had been kicked in the stomach.

Guest Opinion. Thirty-five years ago, our people made a courageous choice to dare a new path. What began as a humble bingo hall in Roland in 1990 has grown into a thriving gaming and hospitality enterprise — Cherokee Nation Entertainment — that today embodies opportunity and drives revenue for Cherokees families across our reservation and the world. The decision to invest in ourselves was rooted in hope, self-determination, and the belief that true prosperity for the Cherokee Nation must come from within.

Opinion. For generations, Native Americans have faced extraordinary health disparities: We die younger, suffer higher rates of diabetes, heart disease, liver disease, and suicide, and are more likely to lack insurance than any other racial or ethnic group in the United States.

Guest Opinion. On November 19, the Bureau of Labor Statistics announced that, as a result of the government shutdown, it would not release its October jobs report—the first time in the report’s 77-year history that it would not be published. As a result, businesses, state and local governments, and the Federal Reserve (which will decide this month whether to adjust interest rates) are now left without a clear view of the nation’s economic situation.

Guest Opinion. The first Thanksgiving I remember, I was in the second grade. I didn’t know my teacher had asked my dad to come talk to the class. When he walked in, I was embarrassed to see him there. He said that white people came and didn’t know how to survive on this land, so we helped them out, then celebrated with a meal. It was a story I’d heard in school before, but not at home.

Guest Opinion. Traditional American Thanksgiving acknowledges a feast shared between Pilgrims and Indigenous Native people. We know our people assisted with the early immigration process of those people arriving from Europe because they were pitiful, hungry and starving. We were kind and loving people who helped them. However, once they got a foothold, they tried to completely extinguish us, stole our lands and now we are supposed to be thankful. This runs similar to the “Redskin” mascot Issue or the “Columbus Day” celebration of genocide. Today, we are supposed to celebrate Thanksgiving, which is part of the “Broken Circle” corporate holidays.
