Gristedes Case Against LI Tribes Gets an Airing
A hearing was held Tuesday in Federal Court in Brooklyn on a lawsuit filed by Gristedes
Corporation, a New York City food store chain aginst the Shinnecock and Unkechaug Indian
tribes, their officials and owners of smokeshops on the two Long Island Indian reservations.
The Gristedes complaint says the defendants violated federal racketeering law by selling
tax free tobacco, contributing to a black market on the streets of New York City and helping
fund terrorism and Lebanon's Hezbollah.
The suit also says the defendents cannot claim sovereign immunity in this case since they are
not on the federal Bureau of Indian Affairs list of recognized tribes.
Judge Carol Amon presided at the hearing which was attended by more than fifty Native
Americans and their supporters.
The judge questioned attorneys regarding the basis for tribal sovereign immunity and the lack
of evidence for Gristedes' complaints regarding criminal activity. She asked how Gristedes
could base a complaint solely on newspaper articles.
The defendants' attorney cited the 2005 decision by Federal Judge Thomas Platt that the
Shinnecock are an Indian Tribe and New York State's history of recognition of both the
Shinnecock and the Unkechaug nations.
The Long Island Native American Business Alliance staged a rally and press conference
following the hearing on the street outside the court house.
Unkechaug Chief Harry Wallace says the basis of their sovereign right to conduct commerce
under the law goes back to colonial era treaties. He cited the 1669 Treaty of Fort Albany
in which the British colonists of New York recognized the rights of the native peoples to
conduct commerce in their territories.
Lance Gumbs,Chairman of the Shinnecock Tribal Trustees says that the BIA list is solely for
the purpose of allowing tribes to participate in federal programs.
Gumbs said"you have a tribe that predates the United States, predates New York State,Chief Harry Wallace says that the tobacco shops provide needed training and employment
goes all the way back to the colonial period, you step up to the plate and say
they're not a tribe because they're not on the federal government's list? "
for people on the reservations."Before we had these businesses we had a 80% unemployment rate. They were not
unemployed, they were un-employable. We trained people, we educated people,
we provided people with health insurance that did not exist, we provided
people with pensions. No Federal or state program did that, we did that."
Wallace says the legal cost of fighting this suit is high but as far as losing it would be" back to where they want us to be - unemployed and un-employable -
and I refuse to go back there".
Judge Amon reserved her decision which could be issued any time within the next 90 days.

October 15: Rachel's Words - A Tribute to Rachel Corrie
A message from Vic Teich, Committee for Peace in Israel and Palestine :
Rachel Corrie is the young American woman who was crushed to death by an Israeli army bulldozer as she stood protesting the destruction of the house of a Palestinian pharmacist.
On October 15th at 7:30 p.m. at the Unitarian - Universalist Meetinghouse, the Committee for Peace in Israel and Palestine is presenting a multimedia tribute to Rachel Corrie.
The program will include dramatic film of Rachel in Palestine; of Rachel's mother and father; of the young protesters standing in front of the bulldozers even as the monstrous machines clank forward. Caroline Doctorow and Rhonda Liss will sing, and Liz Rogers will accompany on the piano. Simon Shaheen, a Palestinian, plays a mandolin-like instrument called the u'd against images of destruction in Rafah, where Rachel was killed.
Rachel's e-mails to her parents from Rafah will be read by Lorraine Dusky, Anthony Brandt, James McMullan, Kate McMullan, Genie Henderson, Lily Henderson, Star Black and Tom Leo. Here is the description of the audience's reaction to a reading of the e-mails at the Riverside Church in New York:
"But the focus of the evening were the readings of Rachel's emails. Rachel spoke to us in a language so clear, powerful, simple and loving that no-one could ignore the appeal of her voice and her message.
"We are all born and someday we'll all die. Most likely to some degree alone. What if our aloneness isn't a tragedy? What if our aloneness is what allows us to speak the truth without being afraid?"Rachel's story will not move the Israeli lobby that has been so successful in suppressing the truth about Israel and Palestine. But help us inform the great confused middle who pay little attention to what goes on in Palestine. Ironically, the best protection for Israel's survival is to get out of Palestine.
Come on October 15th. Spread the word.
Suggested donation: $10
The Unitarian-Universalist Meetinghouse is a new building at 977 Sag Harbor-Bridgehampton Tpk., just south of Scuttlehole Road on the east side of the road.
From Sheila Croke: Rep. Peter King at Stony Brook
Peter King visited SBU today, October 10, 2006 and I don't think he will ever forget it, thanks to the great work of Stony Brook University's Social Justice Alliance students .
.
Their original plan, to stand and silently protest during King's speech, fell apart when they were excluded from the auditorium as they told there were no more seats available. . For a while it looked as if the day was lost. However another scenario developed. As Peter King approached to enter the auditorium, he had to pass by a number of people standing in the hallway behind security personnel. Among the group stood Bill McNulty.
"Peter ! " he called out in a voice that could have shaken the pillars of Solomon's Temple, "Peter" he called again, paused for a moment and then challenged King's continued support of the School of the Americas . There was not another sound ; there was no mistaking a single word that Bill said. Peter King hurried by.
Soon the students returned - with Plan B.
Wearing orange T shirts, bearing the words "NO ONE IS ILLEGAL", they entered the area outside the auditorium, formed a marching circle, clapping hands and chanting loudly in protest to King's policies. To their credit, the usual assortment of security personnel did not attempt to stop the proceedings. The chanting continued with great spirit for about 45 minutes or so involving about 30 students . Suddenly the chant became a roar, as King exited the auditorium crossing the hallway,buffered by security, all heading up the wide staircase . Following upon their heels, the students climbed the stairs, with the whole area exploding with "Hey! Ho! Peter King has gotta go! " . King disappeared behind a doorway at the top of the stairs, but the students stayed there on the balcony, chanting and cheering until they knew King had left the building.
It could have been the 2006 version of storming the Bastille! except and this is important, it was all non-violent. Great composure on the part of the students.
So for all of you who have been working so hard for Dave Mejias, or for the immigrants, or for the prisoners at Guantanamo and elsewhere, or for human rights, today was a day that your message was heard throughout the entire building and in range of all its occupants. How fitting that it took place in the Humanities building.
The students were supported by members of Code Pink, Veterans for Peace, Pax Christi, Suffolk Peace Network , World Can't Wait, North Country Peace and others whom I can't recall . Two observers from the ACLU volunteered their time, which was greatly appreciated.
Cheers to the Social Justice Alliance organizers, assisted by Jobs with Justice, and all those who spoke out bravely today.
Peace, Sheila
