The 5th edition of the US Human Rights Network’s Human Rights Status Report  was released on January 15, 2018 (Martin Luther King, Jr. Day). The report was drafted “in order to highlight the issues that Dr. King organized around and issues that grassroots leaders in the U.S. continue to fight for, namely racial, economic and climate justice,” says US Human Rights Network Executive Director Colette Pichon Battle. “2017 saw a record number of climate disruptions and corporate attacks on natural resources that continue to uncover the thinly veiled structural discrimination faced by Indigenous, Black and poor communities across the country,” Battle continued in the introduction of the report.

 

It is with great sadness we mourn the loss of Sarah W. Fuller, the chair of Cultural Survival’s board of directors. Sarah was a champion for Cultural Survival and a generous and committed benefactor. Sarah often spoke of her deep commitment to Cultural Survival’s stewardship stemming from her relationship with and admiration for our co-founders David Maybury-Lewis' and his wife Pia’s work with Indigenous Peoples.

The celebration of Columbus Day for the past century in the US has perpetuated a narrative that glorifies a Eurocentric world view, while allowing us to ignore a history of violence and oppression towards Indigenous individuals throughout Turtle Island/Abya Yala, lands which were mistakenly referred to by Columbus as "The New World."

The first Cultural Survival Indigenous Artisan Institute in July 2017 brought four talented artisans from across the world to spend the week between Cultural Survival’s two July Bazaars in workshops, trainings, and cultural exchanges. Throughout the week, they learned valuable skills to improve their sales and marketing and built relationships and connections with other artists and local Indigenous people.
