Elouise Cobell “Little Bird Woman”, passed away on Sunday, October 16, 2011, from cancer, at the age of 65. Elouise Cobell, was the great granddaughter of Mountain Chief. Mrs. Elouise Cobell was a Native American leader who sued the federal government and settled for 3.4 billion. It was under President Obama’s Administration who appointed Ken Salazar, to the position of Department of Interior, in which the case, “Salazar vs. Corbell” was settled. Please note, the case began in 1996, during former President Clinton administration.
I am a strong believer in everything happens for a reason. The Holy Bible puts it this way: “Everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven”. Read the entire chapter Ecclesiastes 3.
Named Little Bird Woman at birth, but there was nothing little about this woman, who soar like an eagle for her Native American people. Another great American who fought the good fight for the Native American people. Are you an Alaska Native and/or a Native Indian?
