Forum 7.7 - The Example of Others

Guiding Thought Question: Read the guide put together by the Native American Center for Excellence on Conducting Research and Evaluations in Native Communities. Which guideline/suggestion seemed most important to you for when completing a profile of an American Indian community. 

Guiding Inquiry: How can we use the examples set by unique cultural groups to better understand larger global issues?

Today's Learning Objective: 
Students will be able to explain the different components of culture and how membership in different cultural groups can affect the beliefs and values of individuals towards the environment by conducting a case-study examination of a particular indigenous community to see how their concerns, beliefs, and values towards the environment differ than the concerns, beliefs, and values of popular culture in the United States.

I believe the most important guideline would be (Get a clear understanding of the historical trauma experienced by the tribe and explore the personal histories of individuals who will be involved in the study). A full understanding of any previous traumatic or prime events/history is essential to ensure there is appreciation and history doesn't repeat itself.

I think " Appreciate History and Culture" is the most important of the guidelines because it kind of goes hand and hand with being respectful. If you don't understand and acknowledge the generations of trauma and just general history of the community then you can never understand the tribe as a whole. In order to appreciate the traditions and way of life you have to know about the past and be able to realize why things are the way they are. You also have to in a sense tread lightly and be extra respectful. Because the profiler mostly likely did not experience the trauma themselves, they might not know how to be respectful of the people who did. They mention the importance of talking to a leader before interviewing people to realize where they are at, or how they might feel towards you, but also getting multiple perspectives. I think all of these things are super important because they all fall under the general theme of respect. You should always respect others, especially when walking into a situation where you do not know everyone or what is really going on there/ has gone on there. Profilers should strive to amplify others voices not further the miscommunication.

Respect privacy
Do not compare two communities together because they have unique and important cultures and when comparing them its attacking them, and their family personally. I think its really important as one shouldn't be compared to others in general that sort of dehumanizes and takes away from the people.

Understand that study schedules and deadlines that you have in place may not be in line with the Native community‟s priorities, and any study done in Indian Country will be conducted on the tribe‟s schedule and can be delayed at any time for tribal ceremonies, family gatherings, or tribal rituals.
this is showing respect to the community by not disturbing their daily lives and kind of willing to let them do what they need to do is very important obvously going into there community and not respecting their rituals will make them mad and there is a chance that they wouldnt want to work with you anymore causing problems so just fitting in with what they do every day.

-Get to know the community well (elders, traditions, and rights of each individual)
-respect the tribes' privacy
-Be straight up with them about certain situations and keep them updated on the progress

I think that "Attend Native meetings and ceremonies as a means to develop an appreciation for the history and culture of Native Americans." of course to complete a profile of a community you need to participate in that community. The others I would say is the be transparent and the respect the privacy of the tribe.

It is important to include the Native communities in all aspects of the study. “Being transparent is crucial in all aspects of research in Native communities. Determining how study results will be presented to the community and public and what roles community members will play in developing and reviewing reports and publications is essential to the success of the research.” Keep the community in mind when showing results and letting the community members be able to review the reports.

Understand the community and get to know them, be aware of traditions and things that may be offensive. Understand the uniqueness of each tribe.

Attending the native meetings and ceremonies is the most important. Having an understanding and a respect of the native culture and being able to understand the customs of such and contributing to the community in such a way would help them accept you and bond with you as if you are "one of them" or at least you are acceptable to them

That you have to include everyones perspective in what you are researching, including native americans. You have to also respect the roles and the tribes. You also have to get to know the community.

I need to fully understand the history and the experiences that they went through to fully understand and be able to be as respectful as I can.

I think that appreciate history and culture. Understanding and appreciating their culture you can understand why they do certain things that are not a part of your own culture. You can show that you acknowledge and understand the things that happened to them and you understand. This can be done by attending their meetings and ceremonies. Be respectful of their privacy and understand that you may not know why they do things and it may not be a part of your own culture but it is important to them.

Respecting the community
you need to show respect to these communities and their knowledge, because you are asking to research their community. They have every right to tell you no, and their knowledge is something very useful to you and your research.

I think that the most important rule is "respect privacy". This is because respecting privacy is what establishes trust, and it also allows you to conduct more research as you will be able to communicate with them easier. Plus, they have already had experiences with people not respecting their privacy, which means that if you do respect their privacy, it means that you can establish more trust.
Plus, its just disrespectful if you don't respect privacy.

I think demonstrating respect and respecting privacy are the most important. To be unbiased and knowledgable about the community you need to be able to respect their ideals and what they do, as well as their privacy, because even if you're researching the community, they are still people and you need to repsect that.
