Seems they've switched from accusations of molesting women to selling ceremony. This from people who mix and match beliefs, pay to sundance and stomp dance.

About me:
American Indian Movement (A.I.M.),Pennsylvania Chapter was recently put together to protect Native American traditions,and Native Americans who feel violated in the Pennsylvania region.We are from the eastern side of the state,most Eastern Pa. counties. We attend local pow-wows in our area and Native American events afar as well.The AIM is to stop people of the non-native culture of doing our religious ceremonies and cultural beliefs. There are alot of non-natives practicing and abusing the religious beliefs and ways of our people,there are also alot of Natives along the way that are doing ceremonies not of thier people and thier culture,i.e. if a Shishone Native does a Cherokee Medicine Dance,THIS IS WRONG!!!! We also get involved in community activities such as educational seminars and education courses for cub scouts as well.When asked we will also go to local schools and give REAL Native demonstrations there,not the way the school system teaches them,but the way our ancestors taught us. Amongst the A.I.M Pa. Chapter,we represent the Cherokee,Nanticoke,Lakota,Cheyenne,Ojibwa,and Leni-Lenape Nation,as well as the Iroquois Confederacy. We dont know everything about every tribal nation,but we are learning,and we have people in other states we can call on to seek information if needed.

All right now, I have just about have a belly full. Cherokee" MEDICINE DANCE" ???? I just may be ignorant but I thought that the Cherokee only had a "STOMP" and that was only at certain specific grounds. It is my understanding that a Great Seal is copyrighted and or Trademarked. To use it without the proper authority is legally actionable under tort. May even be a criminal act but I am not sure about the latter. If we have any of the three Tribes represented here perhaps they need to take heed. "LittleOldMan"

For the little bit of time I spent at Cherokee grounds *I* have never heard of a Cherokee "Medicine Dance", there are dances that are part of Cherokee "Medicine", and there are dances other than the Stomps, such as Beaver Dance, Eagle Dance, Friendship Dance(often done at "Stomps"), Quail Dance, and there are "Medicine Songs" I would venture to guess this is a "mish-mash" thing of SECCI, and another "group" that does similar stuff.

"...Another copyright issue surrounds the Tribal Seal, a seven-pointed Cherokee star. The copyright for the tribal logo is held by the tribe and permission to use it must be granted by the chief of the Cherokees, according to Adair. Sometimes such permission is granted, but not for the personal profit of the requestor. In one instance, a publisher wanted to use the Tribal Seal on a book cover. Consequently, permission was denied because the seal is not to be used for profit...."

Thanks for the clarification. Methinks that people throw the word MEDICINE around much too loosely. When I encounter this type of situation I look for thunder clouds and get ready to run Creator doesn't like to be disrespected. "LOM"

And at least 19 LPDOC Support Groups. Plus, Ben & Cat Carnes, Wanbli Tate, Kari Ann Cowan, and Betty Ann Peltier-Solano. Guess this shouldn't really wonder me. Ben told me a while back that all support was good, didn't matter who it came from. I agreed that you didn't have to be Indian to support Leonard, you just needed to be honest about who you are. Guess honesty isn't a big issue with some people.

this is the same person who wrote over there: "..."Chink Whitekiller". (A Google search turns up nothing on him, and no one I know from decades in the movement has heard of him.)
would venture to guess he knows NO ONE, or his "sources" are lying to him, LOL!
Besides that it's CHINKA not Chink. I met him once at "Bear" Larry Petersons. Sondra knows him too, I think through Frosty. He's Creek or Seminole, me thinks. I'll see Sondra tommorrow night and ask what she knows.
