Unitarian Congregation of West Chester to pay reparations to the Lenni Lenape people

In a special service on Sunday, April 16 at 10 a.m., the Unitarian Congregation of West Chester will pay reparations to the Lenni Lenape people. For the service, the congregation will be joined by Chief Chuck DeMund of the Lenape Nation of Pennsylvania, who will share stories, history, and teachings, as well as information about current struggles for recognition. All proceeds from the special collection will benefit the Lenape Nation of Pennsylvania.

The reparations program began with a conversation the congregation’s Minister, Rev. Dan Schatz, held with the Social Justice Committee and Board of Trustees. “We often acknowledge that our building stands on land that is part of the Lenape homeland,” said Rev. Schatz, “but without reparations, acknowledgments don’t mean that much.” The congregation, which shares its offering with community organizations once a month, decided to commit one Sunday a year to the Lenape people. “Many of us will be giving reparations for the land on which our homes sit, as well as the congregation,” said Rev. Schatz, “and this year is just a beginning.”

In giving reparations, Rev. Schatz acknowledges the complicated issues involved. “There are Lenape who were forcibly removed to reservations in the West, and there are Lenape here in Pennsylvania, struggling for legal recognition. Both deserve support. We decided to begin by giving to the Lenape Nation of Pennsylvania because it offers us the opportunity to be directly engaged and begin to build relationships.”

Pennsylvania is one of only 13 states that that does not recognize a tribe within its boundaries.  The Lenape Nation of Pennsylvania, a 501c3, is lobbying the state legislature for the same status granted to Lenape communities…

District 2 Girls Basketball Championships: Abington Heights falls; Scranton Prep takes title

WILKES-BARRE TWP. – Abington Heights made its eighth straight trip to Mohegan Sun Arena March 4 for the District 2 girls basketball championship, making it the only program left to have played in every year of championship games there.

Kallie Booth made sure the Lady Comets came home without a title for just the second time in that record run.

Booth scored all 12 Pittston Area fourth-quarter points and helped the Lady Patriots limit the Lady Comets to nine second-half points in a 36-32 victory.

Abington Heights committed just two turnovers, a record low for the games at the arena, but the Lady Comets struggled to hit shots and Booth cleared nine of her game-high 10 rebounds on the defensive end.

Pittston Area held Abington Heights to 1-for-9 (11.1 percent) 3-point shooting in the second half and 5-for-19 (26.3) for the game. The Lady Patriots limited the Lady Comets to 4-for-20 (20.0) overall in the second half and 13-for-49 (26.5) in the game.

That defensive effort and Booth’s clutch late-game efforts helped Pittston Area avenge a 38-31 loss in the same district title match-up a year ago.

“Kallie was tremendous,” Pittston Area coach Jeff Gregory said. “She didn’t have the greatest night last year.

“I just think she was focused tonight.”

Abington Heights led by five with less than five minutes remaining.

Booth did all the scoring in a 9-0 run that began with her 3-pointer from the left corner with 4:30 left and ended with one of two free throws for a 33-29 lead with 1:53 to go.

Pittston Area, the Wyoming Valley Conference Division 1 champion, had the best overall record in District 2 in the regular season at 21-1.

“The main thing is they got nine points in the second half,” Gregory said. “The defensive end won…

Solano Voices: Why not reparations for Native Americans?

Roger Oberbeck: Solano Voices

California is considering giving reparations of $360,000 to descendants of Black slaves, at a cost of up to $800 billion.

There is a list of 69 massacres of Native Americans (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Indian_massacres_in_North_America), where many women and children were killed, including the 1864 Sand Creek Massacre (400 killed, 1846 Sacramento River Massacre (700 killed), 1890 Wounded Knee Massacre (250 killed), and Clear Lake Massacre (400 killed).

Native American tribes have had their ancestral land taken from them illegally. The United States made 368 treaties with Native American tribes from 1778 to 1871.

As settlers moved into the Great Lakes region the Shawnee, Lenape, Miami, Ottawa, Ojibwa and Potawatomi fought a battle at Fallen Timbers, and were forced to give up large areas of Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Illinois and Wisconsin in the Greenville Treaty.

In 1809, the Treaty of Fort Wayne between the U.S. and Lenape, Potawatomi, Miami, and Eel River tribes, took 2.5 million acres of Ohio, Indiana, Michigan and Illinois for about 2 cents per acre.

While Andrew Jackson served as a federal commissioner from 1814 to 1824, he negotiated nine of 11 treaties with Choctaw, Chickasaws, Creeks, Seminoles and Cherokee southeast tribes, which gave up 50 million acres of land in Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Mississippi, North Carolina, Tennessee and Kentucky.

In 1830, President Andrew Jackson passed the Indian Removal Act, which the U.S. granted land west of the Mississippi River to Native American tribes who agreed to give up their homelands, which gave 25 million acres of land in the South to settlers. When many Cherokee resisted giving up their ancestral land in the southeast the U.S. signed a treaty with the Cherokee at New Echota in 1835, which traded 7 million acres of Cherokee land for $5 million. Many Cherokees…
