Our masthead this issue features legendary

Hochunk / Winnebago tribal chief, Whirling

Thunder / Wakajagi wixka [1791? -1865] Chief

Whirling Thunder accompanied Chief Little

Priest during the days of our tribal movements

as our people traded lands and entered into

treaties with the US Government that established our current reservation homelands.

Whirling Thunder is credited with securing

access to physicians’ services as the treaty

was agreed upon. This provision helped establish healthcare for our people ever since. The

Winnebago Tribe honors Whirling Thunder to

this day as his name is on the local gymnasium

and is also the title for one of the health care

programs for our people. Whirling Thunder

Wellness Center has helped countless numbers of tribal members, of all ages, fulfilling the

legacy created by Whirling Thunder for better

health. We are featuring him here in light of another year’s Health Fair hosted by WCHS and

12 Clans Unity Hospital. Whirling Thunder’s

image and words are still featured inside each

of the facilities to which he is honored.

WCHS HOLDS ANNUAL HEALTH FAIR

By Brian Chamberlain

Photos Brian Chamberlain

[Winnebago, NE] The Winnebago Health

Department held its annual health fair on a

gorgeous late spring day here. The annual

event sponsored by the Winnebago Tribe’s

Health and Wellness fields put forth another

great event that always garners a wide

array of participants. Hosted by 12 Clans

Unity Hospital, the event happened on the

west side of the facility on the lower-level

patio. “The day is gorgeous! I’m glad we

came by.” Said one tribal member who

attended the event.

Winnebago Comprehensive Health

Service (WCHS) and the Winnebago Tribe’s

Health Department have been hosting this

annual fair for over 30 years. “I didn’t know

that it’s been going on that long. But I’ve

been coming to it since I was a little girl,

so yeah.” stated one of those who we interviewed during the event. This year’s fair

was also covered by the Big Voice Radio.

Both hosts for the station, Bethani Redhorn

and Garan Coons, who is also the Communications Officer for the Tribe were on

hand to help build awareness of the event

and welcome guests.WCHS staff member

Crystal Snowball was one of the many tribal

members working at the event. She told the

WIN, “We had so many shirts to give away.

There’s not many left. I like seeing our people

wear them around.” Along with the numerous

t-shirts that were handed out from across the

board, the various sub-departments also had

other collateral items to share. Of course, the

main purpose of the event was to provide

valuable information to our people for all their

health care and wellness needs.

Everything the Winnebago Tribe offers in

this important field was on full display at this

year’s health-based fair. All kinds of things

from prescription services and information

to dental procedure and daily care to child

wellness and immunizations were present.

Even long-standing efforts at women’s health

care needs and awareness, like breast cancer

prevention & examinations, were available.

The blood drive bus was also onsite for anyone wanting to help save a life by donating

some blood.

SUMMER BEGINS IN WINNEBAGO

By Brian Chamberlain

[Winnebago, NE] Every year the Memorial

Day Holiday marks the unofficial beginning

of summer. This year the kickoff began with

a literal bang. With the end of the school

year, kids are free to roam, and the sunshine

abounds creating the most delicious time of

year to be outdoors. With all this activity there

comes the need to review what is going on in

and around the community. Safety is always

on the mind of our parents. Nobody wants to

spoil anyone’s fun, but there must be a minimum level of attention paid toward keeping

everyone safe and out of harm’s way.

Because temperatures rise well into the

80s or above, most kids like to get into the

pool, or even in the sprinklers. Some even

find the local pond where mud and all the

things that make being a kid fun exist. To

help in this realm we’re going to cover some

of the basics in each of the areas we feel

could be the most helpful. We’ll begin with

water safety.

Water Safety Tips:

When at the swimming pool, only those

who can swim should enter any depth unsupervised. Drowning takes place in any

depth, even inches, especially for small

children. For those kids who are too young or

have not yet mastered the skill of swimming,

parents or a capable adult should always accompany them. Also, when possible, attend

swimming pools with On Duty Lifeguards.

For more information please visit: https://

www.poolsafely.gov/parents/safety-tips/

Fun on the water also comes in the form of

boating and using other watercraft. In these

situations, always make sure the kiddies

are securely fastened inside a well-fitted

life jacket. Water tends to be unsettled, and

the slightest rocking of a boat or craft can

cause one to fall overboard into the water.

Lifejackets are one of the best ways to help

keep everyone safe. For more information

please visit:

blog/2022/08/know-you-go-boating-safetytips-noaa

https://www.nsc.org/community-safety/

safety-topics/seasonal-safety/summer-safety/boating

And who doesn’t remember playing in

the mud, or at a pond or other standing water

reservoir? These areas abound, especially

following a thunderstorm. Always make sure

proper supervision is being given to help

avoid any unnecessary injuries. Also, some

water-borne illnesses can be contracted.

Local authorities should be sought when

any questions arise. For more information

please visit: https://www.watersafetyusa.org/

prevent-unsupervised-access

Finally, everyone needs to be properly

hydrated. Including pets! Don’t forget about

our four-legged loved ones. Pets don’t perspire in the same way humans do, so having

access to clean, fresh water is an absolute

must for any pet parents. Remember, as the

temperatures climb, the water you provide

can save a life. Also, if you take your pet

with you to the local water feature, for more

information please visit: https://www.medvet.

com/pet-water-safety/

In this same way, people also need

to ensure their water intake is adequate.

When working out in the sun or doing

any activity when the weather is hot

always be sure to drink enough water.

“I always need reminders about drinking water during the heat.” Says David

Edwards CEO at WCHS/12 Clans Unity

Hospital. The WCHS has provided some

documentation following this article that

can help keep you well within the range

of good hydration. For more information

please visit:

https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/mining/

userfiles/works/pdfs/2017-126.pdf

https://health.unl.edu/10-tips-staying-hydrated-summer%C2%A0

As the summer season rolls on the

WIN will continue to bring you valuable

information regarding how to take care

of yourself and those you care about.

The heat is a very real thing, so do your

best not to underestimate the effects it

can have on people and pets. Always

check on those without access to adequate air conditioning, especially on

the hottest days. And never, ever forget

about the pets that depend on you for

fresh water and shade. Be safe this

summer and have a great time!

Letter to the Editor

SUICIDE IN INDIAN COUNTRY PART 48

When Being There and Listening Are Not Enough

Sometimes, in the midst of an emotional storm, listening is not enough.

When listening and caring are not enough, other actions must be taken. For

example, some depressed and/or angry suicidal people will refuse your help.

For young boys or men, but sometimes for women of any age, pride stands

between them and their willingness to accept the very assistance that may

help them find a way to live. Sometimes suicidal people refuse to even talk

about their problems.

What to do?

The answer is to ask yourself a simple question: “If I were angry or depressed or terribly upset and not thinking clearly, would I want those who

love me to stand by while I killed myself?”

The answer is “NO”! Just as you would not allow a friend or love done or

even a total stranger to gag on a piece of meat when you know the Heimlich

Maneuver, neither would you stand by while a suicidal person makes plans

or tries to carry out an attempt on his or her life. When a life is at stake, here

are some things you don’t need to worry about:

Don’t worry about being disloyal.

Don’t worry about breaking a trust.

Don’t worry about bothering the doctor or counselor.

Don’t worry about not having sufficient information to call for help.

Don’t worry about being disliked. (It is better to be disliked temporarily than

to feel sad and guilty forever.)

Remember, we are only responsible for what we know at the time we know

it, not for things we learn later on. So, if in doubt, act. Call. Reach out. Do

something. Don’t wait. Your courage and willingness to do what you feel must

be done are the only things that count.

What If My Help is Still Refused?

If this is the case, your love and caring must now get tough.

Although suicide is not strictly illegal, the law of the land does not permit

someone to kill himself or herself without first receiving the benefit of the doubt.

The “benefit of the doubt” in this case means that, in the final analysis, suicide

is not an acceptable solution to the problems of living.

This law is interpreted to mean that you may pick up the phone, call the

police, your crisis hotline, or your local mental health center, and have your

loved one evaluated by mental health professionals. These highly trained

professionals, as is their duty, will objectively determine if your friend or loved

one represents “a danger to self”.

If the evaluating professionals believe significant danger to self exists,

and your loved one is not willing to accept an alternative outpatient plan

for treatment with a good faith commitment to remain alive, a superior court

judge may order him or her into voluntary inpatient treatment. The required

treatment is usually no more than a few days to two weeks, and typically

consists of crisis resolution, counseling, and (only if your loved one agrees)

medications aimed at reducing the mental and emotional problems that often

lead to suicidal thinking.

As a caring community, society stands with you against death by suicide.

If in doubt about what to do, do not be afraid to let others decide how at-risk

your loved one is and what the best medicine might be. Such consultations

are usually free.

The involuntary treatment law is a wise law, especially when you consider

that studies show that perhaps 95% of those who took their own lives probably

suffered from a treatable brain disorder, or emotional illness. Further, among

those people who actually make an attempt on their life, only 10% go on to

die by suicide. The message is clear: Treatment works – even if, for a time,

it has to be forced.

WARNING: As suicidal people approach the final decision to die, they often

withdraw from those around them. They may pick quarrels, or ask to be left

alone, and may not return calls. It is as if they are rejecting you so that you

will feel less and less obliged to respond to them. This is the time that people

in a suicide crisis may truly test your patience. They are, by rejecting you,

creating an opportunity to suicide.

If you begin to feel yourself withdrawing from someone you know to be

suicidal, double check your emotions, re-evaluate what is happening between

you and the person, and get additional help.

JESUS OUR SAVIOR

LUTHERAN OUTREACH

“Oh the depth of . . .”

‘Oh, the depth of the riches and

wisdom and knowledge of God!

How unsearchable are his judgments and how inscrutable his

ways’ [Romans 11:33 ESV]!

Our Creator offers riches while

mankind settles for poverty. Yes,

the poverty of ending up with

nothing. Nothing but emptiness.

Nothing but loneliness. Nothing

but pain, sorrow, suffering. Nothing but separation from God and

from every good gift.

The thrill of having the riches of

this world vanishes. One cannot

take it with them - when one dies.

Naked one comes into the world

and naked one exits the world.

Yet one often places one’s trust

in the riches of this world and

abandons the riches that Creator

God offers. Ask the rich man in

Jesus’ parable about the rich man

and Lazarus. [see Luke 16:19-31]

Creator God offers the riches of

everlasting life through trusting in

the gift of His Son. Through faith

in Jesus one is blessed now with

this blessed hope.

Our Creator offers wisdom while

mankind would rather be foolish.

Who wants to be labeled as a fool?

The book of Proverbs presents

many words of wisdom regarding

a fool. ‘The way of a fool seems

right to him . . .’ [Proverbs 12:15a]

.Or in the case of something going

wrong or when one is disappointed: ‘A fool shows his annoyance

at once . . . ‘[Proverbs 12:16a].

‘As a dog returns to its vomit, so

a fool repeats his folly’ [Proverbs

26:11]. ‘Do you see a man wise in

his own eyes? There is more hope

for a fool than for him’ [Proverbs

26:12].

Our Creator offers knowledge

By: Pastor Ricky Jacob

while mankind settles for google or wikipedia. In the place of

searching the Scriptures - man

searches the internet. Put another way - mere knowledge will not

profit a man or a woman or a child

spiritually. Mankind’s knowledge

and its benefits are quite limited.

First, man continues to add to

his knowledge and yet, he is unable to solve many of the problems

or dilemmas of the world. Take for

example health issues - cancers

and various diseases - some

of which we don’t even have a

knowledge of what one is battling.

Health care knowledge is limited,

there is no doubt about that fact.

Second, knowing the words

of the Bible, the stories that one

learned at Sunday school, or VBS,

or during Bible study or Sunday

morning Divine Service will not

guarantee one a place in paradise. The devil knows Scripture

but that knowledge only condemns him and those who fall for

his lies and deceptions.

A theological degree can be

quite worthless in the eyes of

God - so just because one has

reverend in front of one’s name

means nothing to God - who looks

in one’s heart. God listens whether

His Word is taught in its truth and

purity, not adding to what He has

said, nor taking away from it.

‘Oh, the depth of the riches

and wisdom and knowledge of

God! How unsearchable are his

judgments and how inscrutable

his ways’ [Romans 11:33 ESV]!

Oh, that one would search the

Scriptures in order to begin one’s

quest in getting a glimpse of the

grace and mercy and compassion

of our awesome Creator!

LIVE CONCERT REVIEW:

Pink Friday 2 World Tour – Nicki Minaj

By Bethani Redhorn

Greetings all! This is my first submission

for Hakewe which will be a review for a

concert that I recently attended. I traveled

to Minneapolis, Minnesota with one of my

best friends and two of my cousins for

the Pink Friday 2 World Tour at the Target

Center. The last time Nicki Minaj performed

in Minneapolis was in 2013 as one of the

opening acts for Britney Spears! I thought

that was pretty dope as she is breaking

records in 2024 with the highest grossing

rap tour by a female and top 10 highest

grossing rap tour by any rapper of all time.

To be able to say I attended her SOLDOUT

Pink Friday 2 World Tour brings me a whole

new (peace) of contentment! As soon as

we stepped into the Target Center, you

could feel the energy radiating with shades

of pink everywhere! Maneuvering through

crowded lines to make our way to the floor

was a journey but worth it once we got

to our seats. We had floor seats with an

amazing view and for someone who needs

prescription glasses (that I did not bring),

it was a sight to see to say the least! Nicki

Minaj performed a total of 30 songs, the

show began at approximately 10:10 PM

and went on for a grand total of 3 hours

and 33 minutes! The feeling of pure bliss

is all I felt for the entire 12,780 seconds,

that is the best way to describe what I felt

watching her performance. She brought out

a special guest, Monica, who performed for

about 15 minutes in between Nicki’s sets.

The visuals, the props, the setup, the special effects, the choreography, the vocals,

the outfits, the hair and makeup, and the

energy were all serving to perfection! All

my thoughts and opinions for Nicki are very

much biased as I have had nothing but love

for her since the beginning of her rap career.

My sister Madisyn and best friend Jordana

introduced me to Nicki Minaj, which at the

time was during her come up. It has been

on my bucket list to make it to a show of

hers to see her in real life, human form with

my own eyeballs! I would attend another

show without hesitation, which just so

happens to be that she announced a 2nd

leg for her US tour and that has my name

written all over it! As a less than part-time

concert connoisseur, she is one of my

top shows. (I have not been to as many

Editor’s Movie Review:

Fearless FX – Shogun

By Brian Chamberlain

Photos FX /

There are times, although few,

when a movie or show can compare to the book it came from. I

think we’ve found one of those

‘diamonds in the rough.’ In this

week’s edition we are going to

review, “Shogun.” A limited television series presented by FX.

Available via the streaming platform HULU.

I recall my mom watching the

first iteration of the television

series, Shogun, which was broadcast back in the early 1980s. That

mini-series was based on the novel

of the same name written by James

Clavell. His book, published in

1975, was a tremendous success

hailed by critics as one of his best

works. As part of a series of stories

about the region, Clavell’s Asian

Saga told gripping tales of how life

was in those places of the world,

with historically fictionalized flare.

Clavell captured the storytelling

magic needed to keep readers

enthralled. Shogun became one

of the gems in the series which

sold millions of copies world-wide.

The story of Shogun takes place

in 1600s feudal Japan. During an

era when the fight for control of

the nation was just as fierce as the

need for unity among the sects,

Clavell opens the door by giving

the audience a rare opportunity

to glimpse the inner circles of a

very private world. One where the

leadership navigated the political

landscape just as carefully as the

battlefield.

Based loosely on historical

events and persons, Clavell’s

story features the pathways of two

ambitious men. John Blackthorne,

“Anjin”, an English sailor who finds

himself shipwrecked in a land unfamiliar. Juxtaposed with the unfolding pathway of Lord Toranaga,

a man skilled in battle and politics,

but who finds himself under attack

from nearly all sides. Lady Mariko

joins the two men. A woman from

a tainted past who is just as adept as any man when it comes to

dealing with people in her native

Japan and with foreigners alike.

A number of skilled directors

take the helm of these ten episodes in the limited series. The

actors playing the main roles are

Hiroyuki Sanada (The Last Sa mauri / Rush Hour 3 / 47 Ronin)

who plays Lord Yoshii Toranaga.

He is one of the five Regents ruling

Japan. Cosmo Jarvis (Lady MacBeth

/ Hunter Killer / Annihilation) plays

English sailor John Blackthorne, the

displaced but ambition driven man

who would potentially tip the scales

of power. Anna Sawai (Ninja Assassin / F9 / Pachinko) plays the lead

female role of Lady Toda Mariko.

Each of the leads are exceptionally

strong in their portrayals. The cast of

characters is equally striking as the

writing for the series never ceases

to amaze.

Overall, the cast is extremely well

chosen. Remarking on the individual

performances, it would seem as if

the casting director should definitely

earn an award. Also, what is most

notable about this show is that the

dialogue is almost entirely spoken

in Japanese. With English flares all

throughout, the story captures such

incredible depth by combining the

two languages giving the story more

than anyone could anticipate from a

simple English language over-dub.

With music and production design to match, the imagery is lush,

dynamic, and spectacular. Shogun

is sure to be on the list for all the

awards that come next season when

they are announced. It would not

surprise me at all to see it win them

either.

On our world-famous HaazZaat

scale I am giving Shogun a rock solid 4 ¾ Haaz. This series is seriously

good television. I could not wait for

each episode as the weeks went on.

There is talk of additional season

development, but as of now, these

10 gorgeous shows are the ruler of

our Shogun-esque world.
