Linda Hansen, thank you for your excellent point of view regarding the recall. It stresses "traditional laws' and eloquently emphasizes the use of our elders. The work of our tribal council president cannot be discounted. This recall shows dissatisfaction by council members and the need to go back to the table where the power lies and work the issues out. Our younger upcoming leaders are watching. I do alot of reading and read in ANTHC about how our ancestors taught the younger ones---they were taught by observing and watching how things were done. Thanks Linda for being a wise tribal member!
