The Ramapough Lenape Nation: New Jersey’s Hidden Indigenous Community

https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=2XrWpX_13s1nZmE00

Tucked away in the misty hills and dense forests of northern New Jersey lies a story few have heard—a tale of resilience, mystery, and deep-rooted connection to the land. The Ramapough Lenape Nation, an Indigenous people whose lineage stretches back centuries, has weathered storms of erasure, marginalization, and environmental threat. Their presence is as enduring as the granite ridges of the Ramapo Mountains they call home, yet their story remains largely hidden from public view. What is it about this community that has allowed them to persist against all odds? How have they maintained their traditions amid the shadows of history and the bustle of modern life? Their journey is a testament to survival, identity, and the unbreakable bond between people and nature.

A People Shrouded in Mystery and Misunderstanding

The Ramapough Lenape Nation has often been misunderstood, their roots obscured by centuries of changing borders, shifting populations, and racial prejudice. Many locals used to refer to them by derogatory names, not realizing the depth of their Indigenous heritage. Some even doubted their existence, calling them “mythical” or “mixed,” rather than recognizing their distinct Lenape ancestry. This skepticism has been a double-edged sword: while it sometimes spared them the worst of direct attacks, it also made them invisible in the eyes of law and policy. Despite this, the Ramapough have steadfastly maintained their identity, holding fast to oral histories, family lines, and traditions that tie them to the land. Their story is not one of disappearance, but of quiet endurance against a tide of misunderstanding.

Ramapough Lenape chief unseated, arrested in illegal coup, lawsuit says

The leader of the Ramapough Lenape Nation in Bergen County has sued rival tribal members for allegedly staging an illegal takeover of the council, ousting him, having him arrested, and seizing control of the tribe’s nonprofit arm.

Chief Dwaine Perry claims in court papers that rival members violated the tribe’s 2008 Constitution when they voted in May to suspend him and later removed him and other council members without proper authority.

After his removal, Perry was arrested at tribal headquarters in Mahwah for allegedly trespassing, court records show.

Perry says his removal was based on outdated 2004 bylaws that allow non-council members to vote, according to the lawsuit, filed in Superior Court of Bergen County on Aug. 7.

Tribal Council members did not respond to calls and emails seeking comment on the lawsuit.

The Ramapough Lenape Nation is recognized by New Jersey and New York as an American Indian tribe. The Tribal Council oversees the Wolf Clan in Mahwah, the Turtle Clan in Ringwood and the Deer Clan in Hillburn, New York.

After his suspension, Perry was charged on July 22 with criminal trespass when he returned to the Ramapough Lenape Community Center in the 100 block of Stag Hill Road, according to court records.

A source close to the case claims Perry was arrested when he returned to replace pictures of himself, which had been taken off a wall after he was ousted.

Bright Path Center, an Integrated Crisis Stabilization Facility, Is Slated to Open Next Spring in Doylestown

Bright Path Center will offer crisis stabilization with integrated services for mental health, drug and alcohol use disorder to Bucks County residents.

Once completed the estimated $15 million facility currently under construction on the campus of Doylestown Health: Doylestown Hospital will be accessible to walk in and drop off to individuals with no intake appointments needed.

Bucks County Commissioners approved $5 million toward the project at a regular business meeting August 6.

“I’m a big supporter of this project. Every family sooner or later is going to have to deal with a loved one with a mental health or drug and alcohol addiction issue,” said Bucks County Commissioner Gene DiGirolamo.

The average cost for drug rehabilitation services is about $13,475, according to the National Center for Drug Abuse Statistics website – though programs, facilities, length of stay and individualized needs mean the real costs vary widely.

“One of its primary uses is to reduce boarding in hospital emergency department settings and start treatment right away,” said Donna Duffy Grimm, administrator at the Bucks County Department of Behavioral Health/Developmental Programs.

Bucks County Commissioners Unanimously Release Opioid Settlement Money to Fund Local Programs | Funds will help the Bucks County Coroner’s office screen for drug overdose deaths quickly; $2.2 million will go toward drug & alcohol treatment and relapse prevention among the county’s prison population. — Bucks County Beacon (@buckscountybeacon.com) 2025-02-05T22:39:41.650Z

Doylestown Hospital donated the land for the estimated 20,000-square-foot facility.

The project is in partnership with the county, Doylestown Health, the Lenape Valley Foundation and money from Bucks County Opioid Settlement Funds.

Among the nearly $15 million project’s goals is to provide relief to area hospital emergency departments, begin appropriate treatment immediately, offer a…

Families Enjoyed Food And Fun At Lake Lenape Park For National Night Out

https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=04XnKI_13cdtAOI00Jahna Michal

Mays Landing truly showed up and showed out this year for National Night Out, and if you missed it, don’t worry, they’re doing it again next year.

It was held on Tuesday night at the beautiful Lake Lenape Park.

The annual event brought the community together in the best way possible. For over 40 years, the first Tuesday in August has been all about connecting local law enforcement and first responders with the communities they serve.

This year was no different.

Food, Fun, And Family

It was perfect. Picture the park full of smiling faces, the smell of food trucks and tacos wafting through the air, kids laughing as they bounced from one inflatable to the next.

SO CUTE!

Mays Landing pulled out all the stops. I’m talking food trucks lining the walkways, ice cream and water ice (yes, please), face painting, and more bouncy houses than the little kids could count.

It was truly a family-friendly dream.

Fire Trucks, K-9s & Community

One of the highlights of National Night Out was getting up close and personal with the town’s finest.

Police cruisers, fire trucks, and EMS vehicles were all on display, looking extra shiny, of course.

Officers and firefighters were chatting with families, handing out goodies, and even joining in the fun.

Oh! Can we talk about the dog show?! Yep, Mays Landing hosted a K-9 demonstration that totally stole the spotlight.

National Night Out REALLY Matters

Beyond the fun, the night served a bigger purpose… unity.

It’s events like these that remind us how important it is to connect with those who work hard to keep us safe every day.

Shoutout to Mays Landing and all the towns across South Jersey who made this year’s National Night Out such a success. Can’t wait to do it again next August!

Take a look at how the night went…

Ramapough Lenape Chief Arrested By Mahwah Police In New Jersey

MAHWAH, NJ — A local chief of one of New Jersey’s native tribes — the Ramapough Lenape — was arrested in Mahwah Tuesday on a trespassing charge, police confirmed.

Ramsey-based attorney Lydia Cotz said Wednesday that Chief Dwaine Perry’s arrest was unfair, and that he will fight the charge in court next month.

She said he has been the victim of a power struggle over his title for some time.

Members of a local group voted to strip Perry of the title of chief in spring, according to a statement released by the group last month.

Some time after the vote, they removed photos of him at the Ramapough Community Center, says Cotz.

Cotz said that when Perry went there to restore them on Tuesday, police showed up and arrested him.

“We believe this was a wrongful arrest on the part of the Mahwah Police Department,” she said. “We believe Chief Perry will be vindicated from this unfortunate situation.”

Mahwah Police Captain Michael Blondin said in a statement for Patch, “He was charged with one count of trespassing on a criminal complaint and released a short time later. As for the statements made by Mr. Perry’s attorney, the charge against Mr. Perry is an accusation as a result of the investigation by responding officers at the time they were requested to the location.”

He added, “Mr. Perry is innocent until proven guilty and will be afforded his moment in court in the near future.”

Cotz said Perry has a court date on Aug. 5.

Of the police, she said, “Who are you to come up here and take a side? This is a civil matter. He should have never been arrested.”

The members who voted against him released a statement last month…
