8 Widener Law Symposium Journal 443 (2002) |
A wee child toddling in a wonder world, I prefer to their dogma my excursions into the natural gardens where the voice of the Great Spirit is heard in the twittering of birds, the rippling of mighty waters, and the sweet breathing of flowers. Freedom of religion drove thousands of Europeans to the New World, but to this date our society still... |

The opposite of love is not hate; it's indifference. The opposite of art is not ugliness; it's indifference. The opposite of faith is not heresy; it's indifference. The opposite of life is not death; it's indifference. Because of indifference, one dies before one actually dies. Elie Wiesel. On September 8, 2000, the head of the Bureau of Indian... |

The Recognition and Evolution of Tribal Sovereign Immunity under Federal Law: Legal, Historical, and Normative Reflections on a Fundamental Aspect of American Indian Sovereignty |
37 Tulsa Law Review 661 (Spring 2002) |
It is inherent in the nature of sovereignty, not to be amenable to the suit of an individual without its consent. This is the general sense and the general practice of mankind; and the exemption, as one of the attributes of sovereignty, is now enjoyed by the government of every state in the union.

Ray Halbritter was referring to his own tribe, the Oneida Indian Nation of New York, but the sentiment might have applied to each of the nearly 150 tribes that decided to pursue casino-style gaming during the 1990s as a means of tribal economic development.

To the casual observer, peyote is unremarkable even as a plant.

Similarly, the billions of grapes that fill... |
