THE SANDHILL UNITE!

(For expedience sake- Principal Chief Dr. Ronald Yonaguska Holloway will be referred to as Principal Chief Yonaguska. The Federation of Aboriginal Nations of the Americas will be referred to as FANA, The Red Chief of the SandHill, Lance Red Hawk Shauger will be referred to as Red Chief Red Hawk. Principal Blood Chiefs will be referred to as Principal Chiefs)

It has been a long journey to where the SandHill Band of Lenape and Cherokee Indians (NY, NJ, PA) has become globally recognized under the leadership of  Principal Chief Dr. Ronald Yonaguska Holloway.  He is also FANA’s Minister of International Affairs and Ambassador to the UN

Principal Chief Yonaguska was one of three Chiefs who had met by happenstance at an Indigenous Forum being held at the United Nations more than a decade ago.  It was at that event, that the seeds were planted which began to formulate into an idea of a Federation that would become known internationally as The Federation of Aboriginal Nations of the Americas.

In the meantime, while we were forming the Federation, there was a concerted effort being made by the SandHill leadership to identify and locate those SandHill who were currently scattered throughout America.  

Why was that action needed?  When the trail of tears occurred, many of the SandHill went into hiding in cities and rural areas throughout New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania.  They went into what is referred to as “the woodwork.”  Eventually, under the leadership of their Chiefs, the SandHill who dwelled in their ancestorial lands within New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and New York began to come out of hiding and made it known that the SandHill Tribe still existed, and never gave up their sovereignty or abandoned their lands. They still existed as a Tribe, and went by the traditions…

Four Lenape Middle School students hope participating in the NASA TechRise challenge will open doors in the STEM field, writes Emily Neil for the WHYY.

The team was one of sixty nationwide who won an opportunity to participate. The competition is designed for sixth- through 12th-grade students.

The Central Bucks School District students’ team worked with Jennifer Conver, a gifted support teacher at Lenape Middle School, and NASA mentors to make a rocket-powered lander that will be tested by NASA scientists on a surface that mimics the moon.

Mia Sasser, Kayleigh Razon, Emma Lofts, and Aanika Oka, all 15-year-olds, have been working together since January constructing what they refer to as the SOBIE (surface object identification) experiment.

Challenges such as this one are especially important for girls who are interested in STEM and science, explained Razon.

“I feel like we need to build the foundation for where girls feel welcomed and the STEM community,” she said.

“That’s what I really hope this project shows is to open more opportunities to little girls who are more curious about what areas they want to do when they grow older.”

New Park, Welakamike Creekside Park​, Created In Collegeville

COLLEGEVILLE, PA — A Montgomery County municipality, federal, state, and county leaders, a local college, and a nonprofit have all teamed up to create a new park for the community along Perkiomen Creek.

The new Welakamike Creekside Park in Collegeville is located just off of First Avenue, above Central Perkiomen Park and just below Perkiomen Bridge and Ridge Pike. It runs along the creek from Main Street roughly to the end of the Collegeville Shopping Center on Route 29.

It was in part created thanks to FEMA grants which allowed Collegeville to purchase 20 homes which had been damaged or destroyed by Hurricane Ida. The name “Welakamike” means “pretty place” or “good land” in the Lenape language, a heritage which the park creators aimed to honor.

“The park celebrates the Delaware Tribe (of the Lenape) as the original, indigenous inhabitants of the Collegeville area,” Collegeville borough council president Catherine Kernen told Patch.

After purchasing the roughly block-long swath of damaged homes and land, Collegeville worked with the the Perkiomen Watershed Conservancy to reseed the area and restore the boat launch.

While the final bits of construction on the park are still being hammered out, there is a 15-space parking lot and a trail connection along the creek that was built by the Lower Providence Regional Sewer Authority.

A special grand opening celebration will be held on Saturday at noon, featuring guest speakers like Montgomery County Commissioner Jamila Winder, State Rep. Joe Webster, State Sen. Tracy Pennycuick, and Delaware Tribe of Indians Cultural Education Director Jeremy Johnson.

In addition to the borough, the Delaware Tribe, and Perkiomen Watershed, Kernen said that Ursinus College, the PA Fish and Boat Commission, Schuylkill Highlands Conservation Landscape Initiative, Duck Inn Owner Mark Marino, Perkiomen Valley School District, and Collegeville Fire Company all assisted in helping…

Robotic Russian cargo ship leaves the ISS and burns up in Earth’s atmosphere (photo)

An unmanned Russian cargo spacecraft crashed back to Earth today (May 28) as planned.

The Progress 86 freighter detached from the International Space Station (ISS) today at 4:39 a.m. EDT (0839 GMT) and returned to Earth.

Progress 86 gave up the ghost a few hours later and burned up over the Pacific Ocean as planned, NASA officials said in an update.

Related: Facts about Roscosmos, the Russian space agency

Progress 86 was launched on December 1, 2023 atop a Russian Soyuz rocket from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. The cargo ship arrived at the ISS two days later and delivered 2,540 pounds of food, scientific hardware and other supplies to astronauts aboard the spaceship. laboratory.

Progress 86 did not remain empty today; in its last hours it acted as a garbage truck, hauling waste down for incineration in the Earth’s atmosphere.

Four spacecraft remain parked at the ISS: the Dragon capsule carrying SpaceX’s Crew-8 astronaut mission for NASA, a Russian Soyuz spacecraft, the Progress 87 freighter and a Northrop Grumman Cygnus cargo vehicle.

Like Progress, Cygnus is designed for single use. But the Soyuz and both versions of SpaceX’s Dragon – the cargo and crewed variants – survive the harrowing journey through our planet’s skies. Soyuz lands firmly on terra, and Dragon makes gentle ocean splashes.

From Manahahtáanung to New York: The forgotten history of the original inhabitants of Manhattan

Four hundred years ago, a group of emigrants from what is now the Netherlands settled on the southern tip of the island of Manhattan. They settled there and founded New Amsterdam. In 1664, the English took possession of the settlement, which grew into New York City. For the Lenape people, the original inhabitants, colonization meant the loss of their lands and their near total disappearance: today only about 20,000 of their descendants remain. The latter are now seeking an apology and compensation from the Dutch government, supported by an exhibition at the Amsterdam Museum that illustrates a colonial period that has received less attention than other former Dutch colonies in modern-day Suriname (South America), the Caribbean and Indonesia.

The Amsterdam Museum and the Museum of the City of New York, together with representatives of the heads of the four Lenape Nations, have joined forces to organize the exhibition, called Manahahtáanung or New Amsterdam? The Indigenous Story Behind New York. Through objects, clothing, historical documents and testimonial videos, the voice of a community is recovered “that returns 400 years later to engage in dialogue because with colonization we lost connection with our land and our culture, and language suffered,” explains Brent Stonefish, spiritual leader of the Delaware Nation, one of the four Lenape.

Stonefish has traveled to the Netherlands in search of an official apology and a form of reparation, and notes that “compensation can translate into support for language conservation and social development.” The other three branches of their people are the Nanticoke Lenni-Lenape Tribal Nation, the Ramapough Lenape Nation, and the Munsee-Delaware Nation. The effects of that process continue to this day and have generated, among other problems, poverty and a lack of self-esteem. The four Lenape nations are federally recognized by the United States government.

New York turns 400-years-old in silence and with a Latin accent

It has been 400 years since the founding of what is now New York City, which took place in the spring of 1624. While it would be logical for the anniversary to be a cause for celebration, the truth is that the occasion is almost going unnoticed. One exception, however, is an exhibition titled New York Before New York: The Castello Plan of New Amsterdam. It’s a tiny display that occupies a corner of the lobby in the New York Historical Society, an elegant neo-Roman style building located in front of the west side of Central Park.

The exhibition includes maps, objects and documents of considerable interest. Among the items is a letter in which an administrator from the Dutch West India Company, Pieter Schagen, informs his superiors about how the founding of the city took place. In 1624, the original inhabitants of the area — those belonging to the Lenape tribe — “agreed” to sell Manhattan Island for 60 florins (or 60 two-shilling pieces) to European settlers, the equivalent of $24. Located at the southern tip of the island, the colonized territory was called New Holland, while the inhabited core was called New Amsterdam. In 1664, when the English took possession of Manhattan, the enclave was renamed “New York.”

Three groups made up the original New York City: the settlers of European origin, the Native Americans and the slaves who were forcibly brought from Africa. The commissioner of New York Before New York — Russell Shorto, author of The Island at the Center of the World, a magnificent chronicle on the history of the Dutch colony — invited the descendants of the Lenape people to write a letter in response to Schagen, 400 years after the deceptive transaction. In the response — which can be seen in the…
