Federal & State Duties They Often Overlook
- United States Constitution, Art. VI (Supremacy Clause)
– Treaties and federal statutes recognizing Indians as political peoples apply to all tribes, not just those later placed on a list.
- United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP, 2007)
– Adopted (with reservations) by the U.S.; affirms the right to self-identification, self-government, and to “maintain and strengthen their own institutions.”
- American Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (OAS, 2016)
– The U.S. voted yes; Article 5: “Indigenous peoples have the right to maintain their political, legal, social and economic systems or institutions.”
- State-level heritage & consultation laws
- Illinois: Human Skeletal Remains Protection Act (20 ILCS 3440) requires consultation with “tribal representatives” whether or not they’re federally listed.
- Nevada, Arizona, Colorado have parallel burial-protection, cultural-site, and water-consultation statutes that refer to “tribes or tribal organizations,” not strictly “federally recognized tribes.”
Why More Than 564 Nations Exist
- Terminations & migrations (1940-1960s): Over 100 tribes were “terminated” by Congress; many reorganized outside BIA oversight.
- Paper erasure: Census re-classifications (“Colored,” “Mulatto” "Black" Negro") and allotment rolls broke documentary chains that the modern acknowledgment process demands.
- Historic confederacies: Nations like Yamasee or Sharakhi comprised multiple bands spread across state lines—some bands entered treaties; others never did.
- Modern revivals: Urban Indian communities and diaspora groups re-assert governance on reclaimed land or digital homelands.
