Chief of the Abenaki of Odanak, Rick, O'Bomsawin, celebrates the success of their campaign against proposed New Hampshire Bill giving recognition to illegitimate tribes.
Abstract:
- Excerpt:
"To get U.S. federal status, groups, also known as tribes, must demonstrate compliance with seven mandatory criteria, including a continuous history as an American Indian entity since 1900. In 2005, one of the four Vermont-recognized groups, the Abenaki Nation of Missisquoi, failed to meet some criteria."
