Recently the Winnebago Public School Academy received their check for all their hard work in the field. It was a very successful project and

they processed 129 quarts of Indian corn. They raised $3,800 in just three days of harvesting, and this will go towards funding their educational trips. They were extremely excited and are looking forward to doing this again next year. The more valuable outcome of this is that

over 50 students know the traditional way of harvesting our Indian Corn. Photo and cutline courtesy of Ho-Chunk Farms.

Memphis head coach Penny Hardaway offered a 6-foot-7 wing from Bull

City Prep on Apr. 29, and he committed

to Memphis and signed his NLI on May

9. Now going in to his freshman season

at Memphis, David is looking forward

to showing his ability this year. Wingett

is an outstanding shooter, and with

the help of Hardaway and his staff,

Wingett has the opportunity to be a

very good player for the Tigers. Wingett is part of the Winnebago tribe,

and he said he wants to represent his

tribe and his heritage to the best of

his ability.

"I've always been doubted, and

there's a lot of people that helped me

come out here," Wingett said. "Now I've

just got to do what I do best and prove

the doubters wrong. Coming from prep

school, he [Hardaway] saw that I'm a

hard worker, and he thought I could

be special."

On the offensive end of the fl oor

Wingett is very polished, but the biggest

question mark for him coming in to this

season will be his defensive prowess.

Hardaway emphasizes defense heavily,

so Wingett said he has improved at that

end of the floor. Wingett also said assistant coach Mike Miller has really helped

him improve his shot even more since

the sharpshooter arrived on campus.

"When Penny was recruiting me he

told me that I was going to get better

overall. He's [Hardaway] really been

pushing me to become a better defender," Wingett said. "He's [Miller] really been helping me with my footwork

and just trying to make the game a little

bit easier. I'm trying to get my shot off

quicker now."

In their first year under Hardaway,

the Tigers will go much faster than they

did in previous years. Wingett said the

older guys have learned to play better

in transition, and he said everyone on

the team plays together very well.

"I think when we get going it's going

to be very hard to stop," Wingett said.

"We are so unselfish and we always

make that extra pass, which will make

the defense tired. Throughout the last

few practices, everything's been going

really smooth and it's coming together

nicely.

With his versatility, Wingett can

either play at the wing or at the two

(shooting guard) if needed. He said the

freshman class is very versatile, and

they have pushed each other since

they first got on campus. Freshman

guards Alex Lomax and Tyler Har ris have impressed Wingett so far.

"I'm really loving it [the freshman

class], and I think it's going to be really special between us," Wingett said.

"I love the way Alex plays and Tyler he

can obviously shoot too, and I think

he's really good at contributing to his

teammates."

Indianz.com… Winnebago Tribe doubles investment in solar energy on

reservation

Monday, September 24, 2018

By Kevin Abourezk

The Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska

is continuing its march toward selfsustainability with a $728,000 investment that will fund installation of solar

panels at nine new locations on the

tribe’s northeast Nebraska reservation.

The new installations will include

the Blackhawk Community Center, Ho-Chunk Inc.’s accounting offices, two Pony Express convenience

stores and other businesses.

The latest investment – including

a $364,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Indian

Energy and $364,000 in matching

funds from Ho-Chunk Inc., the tribe

and its partners – will almost double

the solar electricity generated across

one of Nebraska’s largest renewable

energy infrastructures.

V i s i t

u s

a t

Solar installations on the Winnebago

Reservation

The expansion will add 320kW solar

capacity to the current 400kW, increasing energy savings by $47,000 annually.

“Sustainability and being able to

provide for ourselves is very important

to the Winnebago Tribe,” said Ann Marie

Bledsoe Downes, executive vice president of community impact and engagement for HCI. “These renewable energy

projects are indicators of our commitment to self-sufficiency and our desire

to be good stewards of our resources.”

In 2007, HCI began developing the

tribe’s renewable energy infrastructure with construction of five wind

turbines. Last year, 1,000 solar panels

were installed at 14 sites across the

community, including at its powwow

grounds, elder housing and solar panel

farm adjacent to U.S. Highway 75 at the

north end of Winnebago.

Department of Energy grants and

matching funds paid for that $749,000

investment.

Ho-Chunk Inc. owns Indianz.Com.

The website is not involved in the corporation's solar energy efforts.

Thoughts on Another Election…

I am writing this the day of the election and I have no idea who was elected.

This will be the 25th election I have witnessed, and it has really been a tough

one to watch. Negativity seems to be

the predominate thing. I think social

media really makes it much worse. A

few negative people can really push

an agenda and make other people feel

pressured to respond.

All of Ho-Chunk, Inc.’s official social media posts and press releases

are positive in nature. Our goal is to

build pride in our company and our

community by showing what can be

accomplished with hard work and foresight. My personal posts are generally

positive, but I occasionally push back

without trying to get personal. I ignore

most negative comments but will sometimes try to treat even negative comments as an opportunity to give more

information. It is my experience that

most people just know a small piece of

the story and if I can share more of the

story then they might have a bit more

understanding.

There is another segment of people

who I will never reach because their

opinions are just so strong. My late

grandmother Margie Big Fire always

said to pity people who say mean things

By Lance Morgan

to you because it means they are not

happy. She said it a thousand times,

but I didn’t really believe I should pity

people who were hateful when I was

younger. As I have seriously aged, I

think I understand what she meant now.

Anger is usually a form of unhappiness.

We have so much pain in our little community. We have had to overcome so

much. We have survived and are just

starting to thrive, but our past complicates our present reality.

Fighting anger with harsh words

doesn’t work. Fighting hate with more

hate has never solved a problem or fed a

family. Compassion and understanding

and doing what it takes to survive has

kept us alive and going as a tribe.

I promise that I will do all I can to

make our community better. I will do

whatever it takes to reach those that are

harsh. I will try and check my natural

sarcasm on social media and ignore

the anger in the comments directed at

me, or what we do. It is only with a

consistently positive approach that we

can continue to build up our community

and strengthen the tie that binds us all.

We are a tribe. A tribal mindset is

unique in this modern era. It shouldn’t

be a source of division. It is an invisible bond that binds us all together. It

means we have someone to lean on. It

means when you see someone in need

that you don’t think twice about helping

them. It is better to be part of something

bigger than yourself than to face it alone.

As we move into the modern world,

the fight to maintain what makes us a

tribe is critical to our future. I will try

and play my part in a respectful way that

allows for real dissent and discussion.

Positive friction is ok if it results in us

being stronger. So, I challenge everyone

to practice what our long-lost elders

knew instinctively. Treat each other well

so we can survive. Our future is not set.

It is ours to make or mess up and at a

core level how we treat each other is the

basis of that future.

JESUS OUR SAVIOR

LUTHERAN OUTREACH

"Without accusation on the Day"

Have you ever been accused of something that you did not do? Maybe you

were playing with your friends, or your

brother or your sister and something

went wrong. Maybe something broke,

something of value, something that was

irreplaceable. And your friend, your

sibling placed the blame on you and

you alone! You were accused and you

had done nothing wrong.

A couple of weeks ago during our

Kidz Bible Adventure Hour we had a

story, a true story, about a man and a

woman. One made an accusation and

the other went to prison for it. The accusation was just the opposite of what

actually happened. It was false. And

yet that accusation stuck. The one who

was blameless borne the penalty for

something that did not happen.

This true story is recorded for us in

Genesis chapter 39. Joseph who had

nearly been murdered by his ten older

brothers; then was sold into slavery and

was bought by Potiphar. Potiphar was

one of Pharaoh's officials, the captain

of the guard.

Since Yahweh blessed him, Potiphar

took notice and placed him in charge of

his household. There was one problem,

the wife of Joseph's boss took a liking

to him. Potiphar's wife said to Joseph,

"Come to bed with me."

Joseph refused and said, "No one

is greater in this house than I am. My

master has withheld nothing from me

except you, because you are his wife.

How then could I do such a wicked

thing and sin against God?” And though

she spoke to Joseph day after day, he

refused to go to bed with her or even

be with her. [Genesis 39:9–10 (NIV84)]

Then it happened. Joseph was alone

in the house of Potiphar with his wife.

She invited him to come to bed with

her and he refused and ran out of the

house. She screamed and told the

servants and then her husband that

Joseph had attempted to force himself

upon her. She lied and Joseph ended

up in prison.

We have gone to council meetings

that had sketchy behavior mostly by

people who you knew would act up.

September's mid-month meeting was

a study in amuck.

Election is over. We say did we do

good or did we do bad? Time will tell.

There was a person who, in our

opinion, used personal libelous and

slanderous epitaphs. How did we fall

so far? Many people were appalled.

What did our children learn? How

can we tell them how to behave when

we don't know how ourselves. We tell

them to respect their elders PEOPLE.

How was our children served in that

council meeting?

NO WORK IS GETTING DONE BY

THE COUNCIL and productivity is

down. There is only a certain way

you can spend a programs money.

They have to be accountable. There is

so very much happening behind the

scene going on that it makes MacBeth

seem like a comedy.

We were going to say something

about accountability, instead are you

alright with them dismantling one of

our most valuable assets. Mark our

words next it'll be a full onslaught of

HCI. From the CEO to the shareholders. Because the orchestrator probably

has no real interest in Winnebagos or

Winnebago, and is working with certain council members to accomplish a

twisted scheme to bring Lance Morgan

and with him bring down our biggest

money earner HCI. Talk about cut off

your nose to spite your face. Too classic. There has been too much mental

agility to be this council not one of

them can bob and weave mentally.

What? What did you say? You think?

We think that's who it is too.

The difference is we care. The result

of any micromanaging of any corporation like HCI would be disastrous. If

The Winnebago Indian News (WIN),

founded in January 1972, is published

bi-weekly for the Winnebago Tribe of

Nebraska.

The Mission of the WIN is to inform and to

educate the Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska

of issues that affect them, and to be a

vehicle in which stresses positive and

beneficial concerns and points of view.

LETTER POLICY: Signed editorials, letters and articles appearing in the WIN

are the responsibility of the authors and

do not necessarily reflect the opinion or

attitude of the Winnebago Indian News or

the Winnebage Tribal Council.

The WIN encourages the submission of

Letters to the Editor; however, letters must

be signed and addressed. Letters may be

edited for language and length.

In the end though, God delivers

Joseph out of prison and places him

as the right hand man of Pharaoh, the

ruler of Egypt! The truth will come out

in the end - God knows.

Paul writes these words in his opening statement to the church at Corinth:

'He will keep you strong to the end, so

that you will be without accusation on

the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.' [1st

Corinthians 1:8] Note well: that God is

the One who keeps the believer strong.

God is the one who makes us blameless, or without accusation, guiltless!

Now that is what God means by the

forgiveness of sins! That is God's grace

and certainly something that we do

not deserve.

The devil no doubt will accuse us

and we are guilty as 'sin.' However, for

the believer in Jesus his or her sin has

been paid for in FULL. The good news

is that Jesus will not accuse those

who place their fear, their love, their

trust in Him!

The Jewish people, men, women

and children sang the following song:

'If you, O Lord, kept a record of sins, O

Lord, who could stand? But with you

there is forgiveness; therefore you are

feared. [Psalm 130:3–4 (NIV84)]

Satan would love to accuse you of

sin and separate you from the grace

and peace that God offers. He did succeed in having Adam and Eve removed

from the garden of Eden. He did separate these two who were created in the

image of God, holy and clueless regarding the knowledge of evil, from their

Creator. But he will fail when it comes

to the child of God, who has by God's

grace been adopted into God's family.

Satan may yell and scream: "BUT

THIS IS NOT MERELY A LIFETIME

APPOINTMENT; THIS IS FOREVER

AND EVER - WITHOUT END." Yes, it is.

However, the blood of the lamb of God

takes away the sin of the world! That is,

the blood of Jesus who was crucified.

Now that is grace! Now that is peace!

Peace for all those who fear, love and

trust in Jesus as Lord and Savior!

“Official Newspaper of

the Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska”

you can't run your personal business,

don't try to run the tribes.

Lets learn how to be a tribe once

again. Not any tribe but the one that

lost everything so many times but

managed to stick together and heed a

gifted leader and gambled it all on his

vision. We speak of Little Priest. Lets

hope that we've elected that kind of

leaders strong, wise, and dedicated to

the people just like that leader. Like

him can we see beyond our nose?

But if we remain stupid at election

time stupid is what we will get. Even

a majority has a minority.

Imagine this council starting out

by taking vengeance for the nine

people who hijacked tribal money for

personal use. Now it has morphed

into something they can not control

because others have jumped on who

have no other reason except vengeance

for every wrong done to them real or

imagined.

You know that the Flowers Island

Buffet Is closed on Mondays and

Tuesdays because it does not generate revenue on those days or offsets

the days it don't, but here's the rub

the management by doing this drastic

step has guaranteed that it won't make

money for two days. We say try different ideas for different times of day or

different days. Soups, salads, sandwiches and a dessert bar from 11:00

to 2:00 every day during the week. Try

anything except that cavernous hole

that we show the public the extent

of our failure. But on the other hand

if you're only at your job site several

times a week wakadda happens.

For pity's sake ask questions. And

smile, don't forget to smile. you'll be

prettier or handsomer. Don' wear the

tragedy mask in public. Don't be one

of them.

6 Reasons Why Our Relatives Stay in Abusive Relationships

Most people assume leaving is easy,

but escaping abuse is more complicated

than it seems.

By Mallory Black, Diné

“Why don’t you just leave?”

When it comes to domestic violence

and dating violence, we tend to focus on

why anyone would willingly stay in an

abusive relationship. After all, no one

would stay with someone who hurts

them, right?

The truth is, on average, it takes

a victim seven attempts at leaving an

abusive relationship before they leave

for good. It takes a lot of courage to

leave, yet most people don’t realize that

the decision to leave is one of the most

dangerous times for a victim of abuse.

For Native Americans, the impacts of

domestic violence and dating violence

are severe, affecting one in two women

and one in three men, according to the

National Institute of Justice. Most Native people have experienced violence

in their lifetime, and one-third of the

population has faced violence in the

past year.

No matter the reason for the abuse,

domestic violence and dating violence

are not our traditional ways. Like colonization, domestic violence and dating

violence are about power and control,

where one partner uses repeated abusive actions to maintain power over their

loved one. So, why not leave?

Here are some reasons why our

friends or relatives might stay:

Fear

Fear of what could happen keeps

may keep a relative in an abusive relationship. Fears for family, children or

pets often plays a role, especially if an

abuser has threatened loved ones in the

past. Unfortunately, being a ‘victim’ also

carries an unfair stigma, instilling fears

of being identified or retaliated against

for speaking out.

Many survivors of domestic violence

or dating violence don’t report abuse out

of fear or distrust of local authorities,

or because they don’t think reporting

will do anything to help or change the

situation. In many cases, silence can

feel like the safest option.

Love

Many survivors who stay in abusive

relationships love their partner and may

feel like if they just “stick it out,” their

partner will change. They may hope that

the relationship will return to happier

times and decide to stay, rather than

end the relationship completely.

Family and Community

When children are involved, some

survivors may try to maintain harmony

within the family by staying in an abusive relationship. They may feel pres-

sure to raise their children with both

parents together or fear losing their children if their partner threatens to take or

harm the children if they were to leave.

Leaving could also mean standing up

to an abuser with power in the community or a prominent family, stoking fears

that everyone will take the abuser’s side.

Some people might fear leaving their

tribal community—one’s family and

culture—in order to escape the abuse,

which may be too much to bear.

Denial or Shame

It’s not always easy to admit that

you’re being abused, and your friend or

relative may worry that their loved ones

will judge them. Victim-blaming and

shaming—where survivors of violence

are blamed for the crimes committed

against them—is another issue. Asking questions like “Were you drinking?”

or “Did you talk back?” are unfair and

critical, making it difficult for people to

reach out.

No Money or Resources

Not having money or resources in

order to leave often keeps victims in

abusive relationships. Even if they were

to leave, a survivor may think they have

nowhere to go or anyone to turn to for

help. While shelters provide support

for escaping abuse, access to Nativecentered or tribal resources aren’t always available.

Low Self-Esteem

Being in abusive relationship often

leads to doubts of self-worth. Abusive

partners often manipulate and criticize

their partner to shake their confidence

or destroy connections to those who

support and love them. Your friend or

relative may blame themselves for the

abuse or believe that they somehow

deserve it.

Tips for Supporting A Loved One

It can be hard to watch a friend or

relative suffer at the hands of someone they love. Now that we know some

reasons why victims stay in abusive

relationships, we can better understand

why leaving is not as easy as it seems.

It is critical to stand by your loved one,

no matter what.

Remember, your loved one—the

person experiencing the abuse—is the

expert when it comes to their safety and

survival, despite your best intentions.

So, how can you help?

Believe their experience. If a friend

or relative confides in you that they are

being abused, listen and take the situation seriously. Be patient and take time

to listen. Avoid judgments. Allow them

to tell you as much or as little as they

want to share. Storytelling plays an

important role in Native communities,

so allow time for this process.

Understand that your loved one did

not intend to love someone who hurts

them. It’s not always easy to tell if a

relationship will become abusive. While

there are red flags to watch for, abusive

behavior can appear at any time in a

relationship. No matter if you think they

should have known better, your loved

one is not to blame for the abuse.

Trust in their resilience. Remember—it may take several attempts for

your friend or relative to leave if they

choose to do so. What you can do is show

that you love, care and stand by them,

no matter what. Whichever way they

choose to seek help, the next steps are

always their choice, which is critical to

rebuilding their self-esteem and personal

sovereignty.

Offer helpful resources. It’s okay to

offer helpful resources, but always allow

your loved one to decide what they need.

Some tribes have domestic violence

programs and advocates that support

survivors in various ways including

assistance with navigating the legal

system, transportation or safe housing

options, or with filing a protection order.

Find healing for yourself. It can be

hard to know what to say or do when a

loved one is being abused. In this case,

it may be helpful to speak with someone to help you cope. The StrongHearts

Native Helpline – 1-844-7NATIVE – can

assist in finding resources and help you

navigate difficult conversations together.

Traditional healing such as smudging,

talking circles or ceremonies can also

help clear the mind, body and spirit.

There are many reasons why your

friend or relative might stay with an

abusive partner. You can be a good relative by supporting them in making their

own decisions and acknowledging that

leaving is not an easy decision to make.

Where to Get Help

Concerned a loved one might be

in an abusive relationship? Support

and resources are available through

the StrongHearts Native Helpline –

1-844-7NATIVE (1-844-762-8483) –

open Monday through Friday from 9 a.m.

to 5:30 p.m. CST. After hours callers

have the option of connecting with the

National Domestic Violence Hotline or to

call back the next business day. All calls

remain anonymous and confidential.

Domestic violence and dating violence

are not our traditional ways, and neither

is ever okay.
