Joanne Shenandoah, Grammy Award Winner Needs Prayers After Mayo Clinic Denies Her a Spot on Its Transplant List UPDATE

Oneida Songstress
Joanne Shenandoah

UPDATE:  Sad to report, that Joanne has walked on.  Please pray her journey to be with her ancestors, is a happy one.

Earlier this week, I asked for prayers and support of a GoFundMe page for Native American Treasure Joanne Shenandoah.  While that support increased both financial and spiritual, I'm sad to report that the Grammy winning songstress is nearing her end.  Please watch video below.

From daughter Leah's FB:

We met with the medical team earlier today and they said my Mom Joanne Shenandoah is on her way to the spirit world. The Dr said there is a small sliver of a chance she could pull through if her BP rises. 

This came after an earlier update on Joanne Shenandoah's health:
My Mom is in the ICU at the Mayo clinic in AZ, she had cardiac arrest early this morning. The Mayo clinic denied her being placed on the transplant list despite our family doing everything we can to meet their requirements. We are trying to get her tranferred to the NY Presbyterian Weill Cornell hospital, and hoping she stabilizes in order to be transferred. I do not know how much time she has left. I am waiting to hear from her doctors about her condition, she is currently having an IR to stop the bleeding.

Indian Country Today, Owned by Civil Rights Abusing ONEIDA Nations, Donates Operation to Civil Rights Abuse Ignoring NCAI

Wonderful news!  Oh, wait.  Word is out that the Oneida Nation, which bulldozed the chairman's own family's homes (under his orders) will donate their assets of Indian Country TODAY to the National Congress of American Indians which studiously and repeatedly IGNORES the issue of tribal disenrollment.  

Can we even HOPE to see stories on the abuse of Indians....BY INDIANS?    Wonder if the new owners will report on the TAMMY MAHONEY investigation?



The defunct Indian Country Today Media Network will remain in Indian Country's hands thanks to the Oneida Nation.

The BATTLE of the ONEIDA NATIONS: Wisconsin vs. Ray Halbritter's Oneida Indian Nation of NY

The Oneida Nation of Wisconsin said Wednesday says it has filed a petition with the U.S. Patent Office, seeking to stop an attempt by the Ray Halbritter-led  Oneida Indian Nation of New York to trademark certain terms.

According to the Wisconsin tribe, based near Green Bay, it believes both tribes should be able to the phrases "Oneida", "Oneida Indian Nation" and "Oneida Nation." However, it says if the New York-based tribe is successful, that tribe alone could use those terms.

"Oneida Nation, Wisconsin emphasizes the purpose of the Petition is not to prevent Oneida Indian Nation, New York from using the terms, and cancellation of the United States Trademark Registrations will not prevent Oneida Indian Nation, New York from using ONEIDA or any other term.

Instead, Oneida Nation, Wisconsin seeks cancellation because Oneida Indian Nation, New York asserts that the Trademark Laws of the United States provide it with exclusive use of ONEIDA and ONEIDA INDIAN NATION throughout the United States, including preventing Oneida Nation, Wisconsin, use of ONEIDA and ONEIDA INDIAN NATION within the state of Wisconsin. Oneida Nation, Wisconsin continues to be hopeful that a reasonable and amicable resolution permitting both tribes to use ONEIDA and ONEIDA INDIAN NATION may be reached," the statement says.
