30 NARF Legal Rev. 1 (2005)

handle is hein.journals/narf30 and id is 1 raw text is: NARF observes 35 years of Fighting For Justice Nobody has given Indian people anything over the past thirty-five years, not anything. Not the federal government or state governments, no one. Indian people insisted on and fought for every acre, salmon, Sun Dance, and sovereign right and achieved them out of their own wisdom, persistence, and courage - not anyone elses. (Charles Wilkinson) Beginning its thirty-fifth N. R obse es year of advocacy, the Native American Rights Fund presence in Indian country has been evident. The need in Indian country Gve nt for creative legal assistance ilaor to enable Indian tribes, een N as sovereign governments, to regain control over their resources and their destiny will continue. As tribes struggle to protect ian L human health and envi- ronmental integrity for Indian people and on Indian lands; as tribes strive to exercise more control over their most precious resource, their children, through improvement of Indian education and tribal societies; as tribes continue their quest to provide infrastructures and more responsive governments; and, as tribes continue their unwavering fight to insure their rights to practice their religious beliefs and protect their cultures for generations to come - the Native American Rights aFund will continue to be at atheir side. Through the lessons of pa these modern Indian wars, sNARF has learned to listen shard and long to its clients, erce ae to present all the options to 12 them, and to help them .make their decisions based Aon the best information page 13 possible. Looking back over ae the past 35 years, NARF has represented over 200 tribes in 31 states in such areas as tribal restoration and recognition, jurisdiction, land claims, water rights, hunting and fishing rights, the protection of Indian religious freedom, and many others. In addition to the great strides that we have made in achieving justice on behalf of Native American people, perhaps NARF's greatest distinguishing attribute has been its ability to bring excellent, highly ethical legal representation to tribes.
