National Native American Heritage Month- November 2024 “During National Native American Heritage Month, we honor the history, rich cultures, and vast contributions of Native peoples. We celebrate the hundreds of Tribal Nations that are ushering in a new era in our Nation-to-Nation relationships. And we recommit to respecting Tribal sovereignty and self-determination and working in partnership with Tribal Nations to bring new prosperity and security to Native peoples. Indigenous peoples' history in the United States is defined by strength, survival, and a deep commitment to and pride in their heritage, right to self-governance, and ways of life. Native peoples have built and sustained powerful Tribal Nations, and the knowledge they developed still benefits us today. ?However, our Nation's failed policies of the past subjected generations of Native peoples to cruelty, violence, and intimidation. The forced removal of Native peoples from their homes and ancestral homelands; attempts to assimilate entire generations; and stripping of Indigenous peoples of their identities, cultures, and traditions are some of the darkest chapters of our Nation's history. The trauma and turmoil fundamentally altered their communities. Indigenous peoples have persisted and survived -- a testament to their resilience and resolve. Today, Native communities are leading the way forward and continuing to strengthen the fabric of the United States. They have long served in the United States military and currently serve in the highest levels of government -- including the Secretary of the Interior, Deb Haaland, America's first Native American Cabinet secretary. In every field and sector, Native peoples are pushing for progress and contributing to our shared prosperity.”

November is Native American Heritage Month! During National Native American Heritage Month, we honor the history, rich cultures, and vast contributions of our Native peoples. We celebrate the hundreds of Tribal Nations that are ushering in a new era in our Nation-to-Nation relationships, tribal sovereignty and self-determination. Our Indigenous peoples’ history in the United States is defined by strength, survival, and a deep commitment and pride in our heritage, right to self-governance, and ways of life. Native people have built and sustained powerful Tribal Nations and indigenous knowledge. However, our Nation’s failed policies subjected generations of Native people to cruelty, violence, and intimidation. The Government forced removal of Native peoples from our homes and ancestral homelands; attempted to assimilate entire generations; and stripping of our tribal identities, cultures, and traditions are some of the darkest chapters of our Nation’s history. The trauma and turmoil fundamentally altered our tribal communities. We as Indigenous peoples have persisted and survived — a testament to our resilience. Today, Native communities are leading the way forward. We have long served in the United States military and currently serve in the highest levels of government. In every field and sector, Our Native people are pushing for progress and contributing to our shared prosperity. #indigenousknowledge #november #nativeamericanheritagemonth #wearestillhere

Each year, September 30 marks the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. The day honours the children who never returned home and Survivors of residential schools, as well as their families and communities. Public commemoration of the tragic and painful history and ongoing impacts of residential schools is a vital component of the reconciliation process. We acknowledge that the land on which we live, work, and gather is the traditional territory of Indigenous Peoples across what we now call Canada. From coast to coast to coast, we recognize the ancestral lands of the First Nations, Métis, and Inuit peoples, who have lived on and cared for this land for thousands of years. We honour their enduring connection to these territories, the rich cultures, languages, and knowledge systems they hold, and their ongoing contributions to the diverse fabric of this country. We commit to reconciliation and building respectful relationships with Indigenous communities, acknowledging the painful history of colonization and the need for meaningful action towards justice and healing. May we all learn from and stand in solidarity with the original stewards of these lands, as we work together to create a future of mutual respect, inclusivity, and sustainability.

Yet, I honor my Cultural Identity and Cultural Inheritance??

Cultural Identity & Inheritance 1. 1810 - Unification of the Hawaiian Islands - King Kamehameha I married highest ranking Royalty Queen Keopualani to unify the Hawaiian Islands, establishing the Kingdom of Hawaii. This unification fostered a centralized culture and language, preserving and standardizing terms. 2. 1843 - Paulet Affair - British naval officer Lord George Paulet's temporary seizure of Hawaii highlighted the islands' geopolitical significance. The restoration of Hawaiian sovereignty emphasized the resilience of Hawaiian cultural identity, including spiritual terms such as ‘Aeko. 3. 1893 - Overthrow of the Hawaiian Monarch - The overthrow of Queen Lili?uokalani disrupted the traditional Hawaiian governance and culture. The subsequent annexation efforts brought challenges to preserving indigenous language and spiritual beliefs, including the concept of ‘Aeko as a guardian aumakua. 4. 1898 - Annexation of Hawaii - The formal annexation of Hawaii by the United States marked a shift in political control and cultural influence. Despite these changes, efforts to maintain and revive traditional knowledge and terms, including ‘Aeko, continued among Native Hawaiians. 5. 1941 - Attack on Momi Habor - The attack on Pearl Harbor underscored Hawaii's strategic importance, further integrating the islands into global geopolitical dynamics. In this context, the preservation of indigenous terms and cultural concepts like ‘Aeko became part of a broader movement to retain Hawaiian identity. 6. 1959 - Hawaii Statehood - Hawaii's transition to statehood in 1959 brought increased federal attention and support for cultural preservation. This period saw renewed interest in Hawaiian language and spirituality, emphasizing the importance of terms like ‘Aeko in expressing cultural heritage. 7. 1978 - Hawaiian Renaissance and Constitutional Convention - The Hawaiian Renaissance movement revitalized interest in Native Hawaiian culture, language, and identity. The establishment of the Office of Hawaiian Affairs (OHA) during the 1978 Constitutional Convention aimed to protect and promote cultural traditions, including the etymology and significance of ‘Aeko. 8. 1993 - Apology Resolution - The U.S. Congress issued a formal apology for the overthrow of the Kingdom of Hawaii, acknowledging historical injustices and recognizing Native Hawaiian sovereignty. #AlohaVaMana, Kahuna Loeka W. ????
