“Natasha Ashley Brokeshoulder, for instance, who is Diné, wore a wing dress created by her father-in-law, while her breastplate was assembled by her husband. “I got the right to wear the regalia that I have from my husband, who is Absentee Shawnee from the Southern Plains,” she said, adding that it is respectful to gain permission from other tribes to wear their specific styles of garment.”

‘Others chose a more historical approach to fashion. Zeke Arjeanas, who is also Diné and won first place in the men’s category, referenced the Long Walk of the Navajo (the 1860s deportation of this indigenous tribe from their native land) for his traditional Clothing Contest outfit. “What I’m wearing is a blanket—not a Navajo blanket, but an army-issued blanket that was issued to the Navajos [at that time],” he said. “With the army-issued blanket, it’s a lot thicker and scratchier versus a Navajo textile blanket, which was more fine, lightweight, and waterproof.”’

^ Two looks from Korina Emmerich with jewelry by Tania Larsson
“...the new collection of the New York–based designer Korina Emmerich (Puyallup), whose asymmetrical vests and graphic wool coats offered a modern interpretation of her tribe’s punchy aesthetic. She also used Gwich’in-inspired jewelry by Larsson, mentioned above, in the show. “What I admire in Korina’s work is her modern, impeccable cuts,” Larsson said. “There is a traditional element that is inherent within my work because of the materials that I use and through the process that they are acquired, such as trade and through community exchanges.””

Joseph "Big Joe" Winters (1816 – 1916) was an African-American abolitionist and inventor who patented a wagon-mounted fire escape folding ladder mounted directly on fire wagons in 1878. He was born in Virginia to an African-American brickmaker and a Shawnee Indian mother. He later relocated to Chambersburg, Pennsylvania in 1830. During the time Winters lived in Chambersburg, he was active in the Underground Railroad.

Y’all I am So Excited about this. The Serpent Mound and the other Hopewell mounds are one of the few genuinely cool things about Ohio
Excerpts:
"In the past we might sometimes say 'Hopewell culture' or 'Hopewell people,' but what we really understand 'Hopewell' to be now is not a new peoples," explains Bill Kennedy, site manager and site archeologist at Fort Ancient Earthworks and Nature Preserve. "It's a new religious movement of people. It's happening all throughout eastern North America. It reaches a fluorescence, though, in southern Ohio that it doesn't reach anywhere else."
…Chief Ben Barnes of the Shawnee Tribe, who was involved in the earthworks nomination, also sees its inscription on the UNESCO World Heritage List as a step toward combating racist and ignorant stereotypes about his people and his ancestors.
"They're great civil engineers. They're artists, they're astronomers, mathematicians, and for my people, that's not the way that Shawnee people, or any Indigenous peoples in this country, are typically portrayed in media," he says.
In addition, the Hopewell Ceremonial Earthworks address gaps in the World Heritage List identified by the World Heritage Committee. Specifically, a lack of sites representing pre-contact Indigenous American sacred architecture and sites that represent early understandings of science, culture and astronomy.
…Today no federally recognized tribes remain in Ohio. They were all forcibly removed in the 17 and 1800s. Yet it was their ancestors who created these massive feats of design and engineering.
Glenna Wallace is chief of the Eastern Shawnee Tribe of Oklahoma and has been active in the World Heritage process. She says inscription on the World Heritage List is part of her mission to teach people about the earthworks that her ancestors built.
She says their inclusion would not be an ending, but another beginning.
"Our people may have been forced away from that place, and they may have disappeared, but what they built, what they constructed, what their values were, that's still there and that should be protected," she states.
"That's the reason for World Heritage."
In becoming a UNESCO World Heritage site, Wallace says she hopes the Hopewell Ceremonial Earthworks will finally attain the reverence and respect they deserve.

Dear person who submitted a Shawnee word:
(also if anyone who knows shawnee by some chance sees this)
I can't quite find the word you submitted (ninekotiyape, meaning "we are one"), im guessing because Shawnee is a polysynthetic language, so this one word is also a whole sentence.
I was able to find parts of the word though! I learned that "nekoti" means one, and "ni" is a prefix for 1st person! I just can't figure out the yape. If you could like, point me towards a definition or something i would be very happy, i really want to include this word but resources for it are really scarce, since its extremely endangered.
(Also side note to the person who submitted the Polabian word, thank you for including the link to the dictionary there, it was not anywhere else on the internet i think)

Train Schedule Board
This was seen in the passenger station in Effingham, Illinois. The board lists trains that once operated on the Illinois Central Railroad. By this time, I think two Amtrak trains would have been in play: the Panama Limited and the Shawnee. The Illini was operating as well but would turn at Champaign for its return to Chicago.
Ninety degrees to this would have been one for the Pennsy line that crosses the IC at that location—don't know why I didn't shoot that! One Amtrak train was operating on Conrail, former PC/Pennsy: the National Limited.
One image by Richard Koenig; taken February of 1979.

Shawnee Smith and Fydolla Ho
So through enjoying the Saw franchise and Amanda Young, I've started to like Shawnee Smith's band! Fydolla Ho. My favourite song is Thrill Me... Or so I thought it was? Through wanting to figure out the lyrics I've realised two song titles have been swapped around. Thrill Me is supposed to be called Ink- How do I know this? Just the lyrics themselves and also a live show where she begins singing ''Ink'' only to sing Thrill Me.

The audio quality isn’t that great, but at 25:25 you can hear Shawnee say she’s going to perform Ink. Which as I’ve mentioned, is called Thrill Me on YouTube.
Tumblr media
Come a little closer to me dear
Press my apple to your ego and listen
To the story that it tells
I think you know the story well
Ink is dripping from your hands
Vision of an ordinary man
Vision everyday by day we plan
I'm swimming around inside a
Heart like yours
Gimmie something more
Vision of an ordinary man
Violent streams/streets? (I think streams)
Is that me?
Vision of an ordinary man
Something is telling me
This is mine
I am fine
But I still
Push it away from me These are the lyrics me and my best friend have gotten so far. Shawnee also sings the lyrics in my eyes you fall inside and with you eternally. However, there are still bits and pieces we're missing. SO! DOES ANYBODY KNOW? I CAN'T FIND ANY WEBSITES CITING THE LYRICS? I've just kinda been trying to figure them out these last couple days.
UPDATE- GOT ANOTHER FRIEND INVOLVED RECENTLY TOO

I have been obsessed with Fort Meigs recently and the Ohio campaigns of the War of 1812, so this news article hit differently. The Ohio History Connection (the same organisation behind the Fort Meigs historic site) is trying to preserve a historic and culturally significant Indigenous earthworks from the golf course that has used it since 1910. The fact that this callous use of an ancient astronomy and ritual calendar site has been allowed to go on also reflects the violent removal of the Shawnee people who by all rights should have been there protecting and using the site. Imagine if they made Stonehenge a golf course!
This is all related to the War of 1812 and campaigns against the Shawnee, Potawatomi and Miami Nations. I have been thinking a lot about this since Indigenous Peoples' Day is Monday, and I have been thinking of writing up something with a predictable War of 1812 focus (there is a lot of material). It just goes to show how much the issues of the War of 1812 continue to affect the present day.

Shawnee OK July 10 1978 -- Katy F3A 70A, with a wave from the fireman, is about to pass under State Highway 3W on its journey from Oklahoma City to McAlester. EMD built the unit as MKT 207A (s/n 4031) in June 1947 and delivered it in red.
