On July 27th, community members were invited to the Modoc Nation's "Relocated, Resilient, Revitalized: Opening Doors to Our Culture" exhibit at the Gathering Place in Wyandotte, Oklahoma. This exhibit focuses on Modoc culture and history, including the Modoc War, removal and assimilation, reestablishment as a federally recognized tribe, and present-day Modoc life. The exhibit showcases and commemorates 150 years of the 1872 Modoc War at the Lava Beds in California. This exhibit is the first of its kind for the Modoc Nation. Culturally significant items have been donated, acquired, and secured on loan to provide insight into the Nation's culture and history. This exhibit tells the story of the Modoc people- a story of perseverance and survival. Unveiled to the Modoc citizens at the Modoc Nation Annual Meeting, it is now open to the community to serve as an introduction of our people, history, and culture. It will stand as a source of education and pride for the Modoc People, providing authentic encounters with our past in an intimate setting.

Thanks to Linda Clark for sharing another of her bison recipes! 🦬

DOUBLE MEAT CHILI
1 lb buffalo, ground
1 lb hot jimmy dean sausage
2 cans beans
2 cans diced tomatoes
1 onion diced
1 package Williams chili seasoning
1/4 cup of ketchup
Salt and pepper.

Fry the buffalo and sausage mix. I pour 1/2 cup water into it because the buffalo meat and sausage is dry and it needs moisture to cook up all nice and juicy. Add more water as it evaporates.

The seasoning from the sausage and onion gives the buffalo meat a very tasty 😋 taste!!!

Heat until boil and then simmer down. Enjoy!!

In early July in 1873, at Fort Klamath, court-mart

In early July in 1873, at Fort Klamath, court-martial proceedings began. Captain Jack, Schonchin John, Black Jim, Boston Charley, Barncho, and Slolux became the only American Indians in history to be tried by a military commission for war crimes. After only four days of proceedings, the Modocs were convicted of murder and condemned to hang. The gallows had been constructed before the trial had even begun. President Grant later commuted the sentences of Barncho and Slolux, who were committed to life imprisonment on Alcatraz, but on October 3, 1873, Captain Jack, Schonchin John, Black Jim, and Boston Charley were escorted to the gallows built at Fort Klamath and were hanged.
