Tocabe: Adding a dash of American Indian to Highlands
Examiner.com -
There are three South American restaurants a handful of Italian spots probably more than a dozen Mexican eateries some Vietnamese offerings a French bistro and a Cuban café within a mile or so from my house. It’s a little bit of heaven for a foodie who likes to try new things. And now there’s an American Indian restaurant!?!I walked into the two-month-old Tocabe at 44th and Lowell with absolutely no idea what to expect. Not only had I never really tasted American Indian cuisine I hadn’t the faintest idea what comprised a typical menu. I could guess corn beans and perhaps squash remembering long-since passed days spent reading history books about the early settlers interacting with the natives. Those grade school lessons didn’t teach Tocabe however. Instead I was treated to a fast-casual eatery a la.

Preserving Black History Month Part 2 by George E Curry
Afro American MD -
February is Black History Month March has been designated Women?s History Month May is Asian Pacific American Heritage Month Hispanic Heritage Month begins on Sept. 15 and November is observed as American Indian Heritage Month. Therefore to single out the elimination of Black History Month while continuing the other observations is ludicrous. To recommend that all be eliminated is equally foolish. As the nation grows increasingly diverse ? by the year 2040 Whites will become a minority in the United States ? I offer a different proposal. Instead of eliminating designated national observations such as Black History Month let?s make an effort to learn more about the groups being celebrated at different times throughout the year.

Toward a more prosperous Native America
Indian Country Today NY -
Most tribal communities and cultures do not motivate tribal members to engage in market-based economies. Any BIA economic development strategy should be conscious of the alternative cultural political and institutional pathways to market enterprise that are found among tribal communities. The government’s Indian policy should not only facilitate the development of American Indian economic opportunities but should also be aware respectful and encouraging of tribal ways of approaching market enterprise. Tribal economies will consist of tribally-owned business or a mix of individual and tribally-owned businesses as well as contain social program sectors and some aspects of traditional subsistence economy. American Indian communities need to approach the marketplace in ways that are most congruent with their own values institutions and histories. An Indian policy with economic development as a central initiative will hold some promise for healthy and economically stable Indian communities. Contemporary Indian policy should facilitate formation of stable productive tribal economies sustained political sovereignty and retention of cultural identity and cultural choice.
