AP Press Fair Praises AIJI

 This past weekend I took a group of students from SMSU to the University of Minnesota for the AP press fair.  The Fargo Forum and the St. Cloud Times stated that Chuck was a wonderful mentor.  It was enjoyable hearing the praise of a program that is 7 years old.  AIJI certainly has had many wonderful successes.  It has been a busy semester. 

  • Tell us what you think about the 'Navajobama' T-shirt, and we'll send your comments to the manufacturer—and to the Obama for President campaign. (No profanities, please.)
  • A Native American gay wedding ceremony takes place at a Two Spirit gathering in Montana.
  • Omission disappoints Native Americans attending the presidential candidate's speech in Wisconsin. Others express concern over Obama's stance on Indian gaming.
  • The Native actor’s role on 'Law and Order: SVU' is coming to an end, but he plans to stay busy with an Internet TV show, a book and a new baby.
  • Crows wait in line for more than six hours to hear the Democratic presidential candidate. 'Somebody finally recognized us enough to come an extra few hours,' says one tribal member.
