The Dispossessed: Cultural Genocide of the Mixed-Blood Utes, an Advocate's Chronicle

PDF DOWNLOAD AUDIO BOOK The Dispossessed: Cultural Genocide of the Mixed-Blood Utes, an Advocate's Chronicle. In this disturbing and provocative study, Salt Lake City attorney Parker M. Nielson chronicles the termination of the mixed-blood Utes from the Northern Ute Indian Tribe. He outlines how the termination process, initiated by Utah Senator Arthur V. Watkins, was visited on the Utes in a singular action by the U.S Congress and the Bureau of Indian Affairs, the only partial termination of any tribe in the nation. Termination for the mixedbloods meant loss of both tribal membership and any further claims upon the Bureau of Indian Affairs, similar to the impact of the termination policy upon other tribes in the 1950s. But for the mixed-blood terminated the losses went much further than being cut off from government assistance. Nielson, with first-hand information gained as legal representative for the terminated Utes, details how the separation of the terminees from tribal member...

Termination's Legacy: The Discarded Indians of Utah by R. Warren Metcalf

  Termination's Legacy: The Discarded Indians of Utah [PDF DOWNLOAD] Termination's Legacy: The Discarded Indians of Utah [AUDIO BOOK] Termination's Legacy describes how the federal policy of termination irrevocably affected the lives of a group of mixed-blood Ute Indians who made their home on the Uintah-Ouray Reservation in Utah. Following World War II many Native American communities were strongly encouraged to terminate their status as wards of the federal government and develop greater economic and political power for themselves. During this era, the rights of many Native communities came under siege, and the tribal status of some was terminated. Most of the terminated communities eventually regained tribal status and federal recognition in subsequent decades. But not all did. The mixed-blood Utes fell outside the formal categories of classification by the federal government, they did not meet the essentialist expectations of some officials of the Mormon Church, and th...
