Native American Heritage Month

Bucks hosted Gloria Lopez, Esq., former Fulbright Chair in Human Rights and Social Justice at the University of Ottawa, at a celebration honoring Native Americans during November’s Native American Heritage Month.

Bucks President Felicia Ganther greeted attendees, saying “We can come together, we can learn new things, we can expand our minds, and we can share the ties that bind us together as humans.”

The first Native American Secretary of the Interior, Deb Haaland, said via video “This month we honor the gifts of our ancestors by celebrating indigenous knowledge, traditions, language and culture… We Center our work on the voices of indigenous people, as we address the missing and murdered indigenous people’s crisis.”

US indigenous population has doubled to almost 10 million for the 2020 census; Twenty two percent live on reservations. Unemployment and those living below the poverty level are consistently nearly double that of all Americans even though the federal budget allocates billions for Native American programs. Despite education subsidies, only 14.5 percent graduate from college.

A 2015 National Congress of American Indians found that as much as 40 percent of sex trafficking victims identify as American Indian, Alaska Native, or First Nations (AIANFN) and indigenous women suffer more violence and are murdered at 10 times the national rate.

Chief Vincett Mann, Chief of the Bucks Lenape, reminded us via video that our Bucks Newtown campus is housed on what was Lenape/ Delaware Indian land beginning 12,000 to 15,000 years ago. The Lenape are indigenous, people who have historic ancestral and cultural ties to the land.

The Delaware river was the Lenape Indian lifeline providing transportation, water, and food, so some also call the Delaware the Lenape.

Native Americans developed three-sisters-farming: first planting corn, next beans to grow up the corn stalks and provide nitrogen, finally squash…

After Two-Year Hiatus, South Jersey Pops Orchestra Returns to the Stage December 12th

After Two-Year Hiatus, South Jersey Pops Orchestra Returns to the Stage December 12th

(CHERRY HILL, NJ) — After a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic, the South Jersey Pops, the area’s own non-profit orchestra, resumes its milestone 50th season of delighting local audiences as it presents “Solstice” on Sunday, December 12, 2021 at Lenape High School in Medford, N.J. The concert’s theme is both a nod to the winter solstice and the orchestra’s excitement to turn the corner and return to the stage.

South Jersey Pops’ musical director Robert Bradshaw of Audubon, founder of the Haddonfield School of Music, will resume his fifth season conducting the 70-piece, all-volunteer orchestra. And despite the long break, the orchestra has grown, adding more than five new members.

“In November of 2019, we began to celebrate our 50th year with our concert ‘Yesterday: The Music of Pops Past.’ Two years later, we are thrilled to continue the celebration and resume our concerts,” said Bradshaw. “We have been rehearsing as a full orchestra since early September, and have kept up our musical chops with a few Zoom ‘performances,’ so we will be ready to usher in the holidays with a grand return to the stage.”

After Two-Year Hiatus, South Jersey Pops Orchestra Returns to the Stage December 12th

All attendees ages 12 and over will be required to present proof of COVID vaccination, and all guests must wear a mask during the concert.

“As the winter solstice marks the end of the longest night and the return of the sun, the Pops celebrates our return to the stage after a long hiatus,” said South Jersey Pops Executive Director Christian Stebbins. “We’ll play some holiday favorites, along with music that captures our feelings…

Representing in Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade: Wampanoag Elders Provide a Blessing and Land Acknowledgement

Details By Native News Online Staff November 25, 2021

Millions of viewers who tuned in today to watch the 2021 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade were treated with a blessing by Mashpee Wampanoag tribal elders Carolyn Wynne (Otter Clan) and Siobhan Brown, who acknowledged the Lenape territory of Manahatta.

The blessing, which was written and shared with us by members of the Wampanoag Language Reclamation Project, (WLRP.org) will air exclusively in the Wampanoag language, but translates in English to the following: “Creator and Ancestors, we honor you for all things. We honor the Lenape people of Manahatta and all our relations. Now we are here; and will always be here. And so it is.”

Help us tell Native stories that get overlooked by other media.

Portions of the performance were spoken in Wôpanâôt8âôk, the language of the Wampanoag People.

Positioned behind the two elders for television cameras were Wampanoag Nation singers and dancers who gifted viewer with a performance of a song known to the tribe as the Calumet, which connects the four directions and honors all relations.

Among the singers and dancers were 2021 Wampanoag Princess Dasia Peters, Cheenulka Pocknett, David Pocknett, Gertrude “Kitty” Hendricks-Miller, Hartman Deetz, John Peters, Talia Landry.

The musical arrangement was by Ty Defoe (Oneida/Ojibwe).

Today’s appearance was the second year of collaboration between Indigenous Direction and the creative team behind the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade.

The Wampanoag Tribe, also known as The People of the First Light, have inhabited the Eastern coast of present-day Massachusetts for more than 12,000 years. In the centuries following first contact with colonizing settlers, forced assimilation silenced the Wampanoag language for over 150 years. However, through historical written…

ESU senior project explores connections between university and Lenape

Susan Bachor, assistant chief of Delaware Tribe of Indians Jeremy Johnson, Emily Serpico, and Margaret Ball.

Susan Bachor, assistant chief of Delaware Tribe of Indians Jeremy Johnson, Emily Serpico, and Margaret Ball.

An East Stroudsburg University honors program student is using modern technology to educate others about an ancient culture in a new exhibit.

Emily Serpico, a senior history and communication double major who is also pursuing a business writing certificate, utilized 3D technology to replicate several artifacts from Greene Dreher Historical Society for her honors thesis project, currently on display in Stroud Hall. The exhibit, Living Legacies: Community Connections, is the result of several months of work in which Serpico teamed up with Susan Bachor, Delaware Tribe Historic Preservation Office and ESU instructor of history and geography; Darlene Farris-LaBar, ESU professor and chair of art + design; and students such as art + design major, James Holloway, by lending various areas of expertise, including 3D scanning and 3D printing.

The exhibit allowed Serpico to apply her various skill sets and take a hands-on approach to her studies. She honed her cataloguing and researching skills during her internship with Bachor last summer, and she currently works at the Schisler Museum of Wildlife and Natural History and McMunn Planetarium. Her supervisor at the museum, Cathy Klingler, did some consulting work on the project. “It came together pretty naturally,” Serpico said.

The exhibit timeline was aggressive, according to Bachor: “The initial brainchild happened in the spring. We wanted to have what Emily was already doing incorporated into her thesis so it wasn’t overwhelming. She ended up designing this project and exhibit. It took about 8-9 months, which is a short time for an exhibit. That’s a very demanding timeline that Emily held to. November is Indigenous People’s Month and we had the Assistant…
