By Macdonald Stainsby A recent ruling on the "Kennewick man" bones has deep
implications as yet another in a long line of scientific attacks on indigenous
sovereignty. The recent court decision that the local Indians do not control
the bones despite the non-ambiguous nature of laws passed on agreements between
the nation and the American state is one more salt-grinding demonstration that
sovereignty of First Nations is not something that a North American government
is bound to respect.
