During the Oneida Bicentennial Breakfast Event, the historical timeline of events were addressed as a pivotal linear recollection of a path Oneida took to get here. Acknowledging establishments, businesses, laws, and the resilience of its time. Keynote speakers, political representatives (Wisconsin Governor, Oneida Business Committee, singers, dancers, servers, audience, and companionship with the Brothertown Nation (Stockbridge-Munsee) amused the age of a Nation and its surrounding towns with their present charm for operating diligently to provide for future generations yet to arrive. The foundation has remained strong and it is encouraged to persist into the future. This means, providing technological improvements to our cultural way of life.
The Woodland Art Gallery in the lobby of the Radisson provided insight of the history and recovery of talent, art, and athleticism with a natural color in traditional items. The impact it has made needs to perpetuate the self-sustenance philosophy by exemplifying artworks in the form of projecting our future impact by providing the necessary educational tools to equip our community without its language. How do we do this without using the printed text and guidance of our elders? Technology is a new elder speaking and that is happening now! Engage in conversations, listen to technological natives speak about their studies, and learn from them. Begin to create your eldership by seeking IT Field topics now and researching your input to bring to your local GTC, favorite BC member, or within your own homestead.
Start creating those connections with resolving our cultural stance on technology today!
Native American communities and culture do input with technology - all of their artwork, colors, blends, and craftsmanship can provide a technological definition of what it means for the future. The moves we make in lacrosse, hurdling into formations, all require definitions that can be transcended into navigating an invisible layer within our atmosphere to combat with the Great Migrations. Perhaps our fastest emblems in the bat and flying squirrel can contend with how we want our internet to disperse within sovereignty by first studying the signal pollution and reconciling its environmental impact. Talk about the Great Migration that took weeks, the whole month, and anticipate the season change with their arrival home. Indicating a direction, perhaps, your first idea of direction with North and South, and how it has changed with our new generation. Thousands if not millions of these migratory birds, now gone. The new elder is changing and with it, those childhood years of witnessing the environmental impact. We have new subjects to study and we have to allow ourselves the rate to change and adapt - and recognize it, for the sake of our children. What will they see different? What will they know to do? Will they be able to protect their children's future and cultural connections with the natural environment? A new elder indeed!
Start with: Identifying that mental capacity blocking your willingness to learn and work on wanting to learn more. Read. Just do it. Read. Use the tooltip (when hovering over a word, your device should give you options on what to do - copy, paste, define. Define will take you to a definition of the word while reading without disrupting your page by opening it up in a separate window. Check it out. Try it!) and keep improving yourself!
