by Melinda Myers No matter the weather, weeds seem to thrive and reproduce, and if left unchecked, they can overwhelm the garden and gardener. These unwanted plants find their way into your garden as seeds, roots, rhizomes, or whole plants. Seeds can be carried in by the wind, birds, and other animals, or on the soles of shoes. Roots, rhizomes, and even plants hitch a ride in the soil or with plants that we move into the garden. Start early managing weeds in your garden. Smaller weeds are easier to pull and removing them before they flower and...

By Isaac White As I sit down to pen this piece, it's with a heavy heart that I share the critical state of the Indian Time Newspaper, a cornerstone of our Akwesasne community. For over 42 years, we've stood as a beacon of news, culture, and voice for our people, a testament to the strength and resilience of our community. But today, we face an existential threat, not from external forces, but from an internal crisis of sustainability. Despite the herculean efforts of a devoted part-time staff, our newspaper is teetering on the brink of closure... Full story

By Isaac White The healthcare landscape for American Indians and Alaska Natives (AI/ANs) is changing, marked by a significant reduction in uninsured rates since the enactment of the Affordable Care Act (ACA).

However, AI/ANs still experience the highest uninsured rates among U.S. ethnic groups, underscoring the need for targeted health...

The decision follows a detailed four-day trial that scrutinized BNSF's profits from trespassing on the Swinomish reservation from 2012 to 2021. The railway, one of North America's largest, has been found to have significantly exceeded the 25-car limit set by a 1991 agreement,...
