Thanks to Eleanor Left Hand for joining in the conversation about tribal constitutional reform. Here’s what she had to share about the Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes efforts about making change in tribal government:

Interesting…my Tribal government has been struggling with a new constitution since ‘06 and I mean struggling… to inform the Tribal members before changes are made is crucial, those changes need to be clear on just how it will effect each and every Tribal member! No hidden agenda for sure it is a momentous task. A copy of my tribal constitution can be found here.

As Natives,we need all the information about all Tribal Nations so that we can be strong in our unity for our future as Sovereign Nations. Thanks Eleanor
