Members of the Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe of Michigan eagerly await a
Court decision that will delineate a plan for a resolution of their Tribal
conflict.
Today, Saturday, September 25th, 1999 the Appellate Court of the Saginaw
Chippewa Indian Tribe of Michigan will convene at 1:00 PM to act on a
petition by Kevin Chamberlain to remove the Tribal Council recognized by
Bureau of Indian Affairs' Kevin Gover and headed by Philip G. Peters.
The Court strongly encouraged the participation of the government of the
United States, by and through the Department of Interior "in light of the
fact that but for the issuance of the letter of August 10, 1999, from
[Kevin Gover], this matter would not be before this Court", as explained on
the 9/20/99 Court order.
The people are ready to receive Mr. Gover. Over 300 supporters wearing
red, yellow, black and white shirts are expected to take part in a "Freedom
for Our Future March" in support of Chamberlain and against the BIA
recognized Council. The march will begin at 12:00 noon at the Tribal At
Large building and will follow the route to the Court building.
Michael Haney, Executive Director of the American Indian Arbitration
Institute, will address the crowd in his capacity as a consultant in the
resolution of this conflict.
