Talk:Pinoleville Pomo Nation

Untitled edit

  • Need to bring up connection to the Pomo Tribe early in the article - either in the first paragraph and link to the Pomo Wikipedia page, or create a subheading titled "Connection to the Pomo" and explain their relationship using the Mendocino Coast Model Railroad & Historical Society citation.
    • "The people called Pomo were originally linked by location, language, and other elements of culture. They were not socially or politically linked as a large unified "tribe." Instead, they lived in small groups ("bands"), linked by geography, lineage and marriage."
  • Need to explain the Pinoleville Rancheria and why it is important and relevant
    • In 1905, a BIA survey assessed the Pinoleville Pomo Nation's privately owned land as overcrowded, and through the Homeless, Landless Indian Act, a Rancheria was purchased next to the private land in 1911.  Ukiah Rancheria, as it was first called, later became known as Pinoleville Rancheria.
    • In the 1950’s, the US government decided to follow a policy of integration of the Native people living on the rancherias into the general population.  Through the Rancheria Act of 1958, the BIA guaranteed help towards independence by bringing housing and water systems up to the standards of the nearest metropolitan area.  In 1966, Pinoleville Rancheria was terminated, and the land, already divided into parcels, was deeded to individuals.  The privately purchased land remained held in trust for the Pinoleville Tribe by the Superior Court.
    • Clearinghouse CDFI purchased a 90% participation in a $2,240,000 loan to the Pinoleville Pomo Nation to obtain land which was part of the Tribe’s original Rancheria established in 1911, but had since been acquired by a private party. The loan was originated by Indian Land Capital Company, a Native Community Development Financial Institution, and was further supported by Indian Land Tenure Foundation, a national, community-based organization serving American Indian nations and people in the recovery and control of their rightful homelands. The purchase of the land allows the Pinoleville Pomo Nation to further tribal enterprises for economic development. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Graceharrison14 (talkcontribs) 06:07, 7 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
