Show Notes
University of Montana returns cultural items to Northern Cheyenne Tribe, marking significant progress in repatriation efforts. New federal rules under NAGPRA empower tribes, leading to the return of beaded moccasins, pipe bags, dolls, and digitized audio recordings. The universitys repatriation coordinator and state funding support the process. Northern Cheyenne elders and council members examine the items, recalling the impact of boarding school punishments on their language and culture. The university leads in repatriation, with 83% of funerary objects available for return. However, building secure storage facilities poses a challenge.
