Today, November 19, 2018 – The Mashpee Wampanoag’s land battle
As Thanksgiving approaches there is some irony that the tribe that met the Pilgrims when they landed are in a fight over whether they meet the legal definition of the word ‘Indian’. Mashpee Wampanoag leaders are pushing for congressional intervention to keep the more than 300 acres of land originally put into trust in 2015. The tribe lost a court ruling and the Trump Administration is siding with the court. The stakes are high. Among other things, it puts plans for a $1 billion dollar resort and casino into jeopardy.
