A HISTORY OF INDIGENOUS PEOPLES IN NORTHERN COLORADO By Austria Cohn @austriacohn

Fort Collins and Northern Colorado originally belonged to Indigenous people prior to the arrival of European settlers, who came and stole the land. David Atekpatzin Young, a member of the Apache tribe, shared his knowledge of the Indigenous history in Colorado with The Collegian. “Sometimes people think, ‘Oh, well, that’s a sacred site there, and so we have to keep it sacred,’” Young said. “Actually, all of this is a sacred site to us.” When English speakers arrived from the east, they made assumptions based on who they saw, but that did

not incorporate everyone that was from this area, Young said. “There has been a movement of Indigenous communities all through the mountains and all through the plains here for thousands and thousands of years,” Young said. There is a common misunderstanding that Native people came here after the ice age, but slowly the belief system is eroding, said David Bartecchi, executive director of Village Earth, who has spent over 20 years working with Indigenous people in North and South America. “We’re realizing that Native people have been here for much longer than that,” Bartecchi said. “So who was in Fort Collins?” Young said. “Well, the Apache people for a long time, Ute people, Nahuatl

“You look out upon this landscape ... all of the stories of Native people, all of the experiences, the battles, even the great civilizations have been erased from the story. It’s like we came here and there was a blank slate — that’s part of how settlers justify the violence behind their settling.” DAVID BARTECCHI

speakers — there were others who passed through, but the Comanche came through once the colonizers came in.”

Slave trade

Some parts of Colorado were settled by European colonists in 1598, and they brought with them guns, horses and disease and introduced the slave trade to the Natives of the land, Young said. “They introduced the slave trade; they did this because there’s nothing else here that they found that was of value,” Young said. They wanted young women — barely into puberty — for wives to do the household chores; they wanted young men to work in the mines; and they didn’t need older men, so they killed them, Young said. “The slave trade went on for a long time all along the Front Range here,” Young said. “From Wyoming down into New Mexico were Apache villages, and they had been here for thousands of years.” “People think that these were (Apache) campgrounds and that people camped along this area, but that’s not true,” Young said. “We weren’t camping. We lived here.”

The Gold Rush

The Treaty of Fort Laramie of 1851 covered a large area over many states,

which included the Cheyenne and Arapaho lands, in exchange for allowing U.S. citizens to travel through the Indigenous land. “We said you could pass through (the land) — we’ll not trouble you, we’ll not bother you, but you can’t stay,” Young said. “But then gold was found here.” Once gold was found, miners flooded the area in search of it, and the treaty was rendered “obsolete” as white settlers ignored the protected status of the land, according to Colorado Encyclopedia. The treaty did not grant travelers authority to mine gold in the Native American lands, but with the influx of miners and increased conflict, the territorial administrators pressured the government to negotiate the treaty by redefining the Cheyenne and Arapaho land with the Treaty of Fort Wise, states a Colorado Encyclopedia article.

History of land grants

Colorado State University is a land-grant institution, which means the land was given by the government and dedicated to being a school. This was possible because of the benefits of the Morrill Act of 1862, but the land was taken from Native people. Shortly after the Sand Creek Massacre in 1864, the U.S. government sold southeast Colorado

land, which helped establish several schools, including CSU, according to a High Country News article. A recent land grant at CSU was for the Hughes Stadium, which was given to the University in 1957 and was demolished in 2018. “Rather than give the land back to the Native community, which is the right thing to do, the Board of Governors preferred to sell the land for $12.5 million,” Young said. The Land Back movement is a nationwide movement also present in Fort Collins through which the Indigenous community is fighting for the Hughes land. “(The Land Back movement is) the idea that you’re going to do whatever you can with municipalities and with counties … states and then with the federal, government to attempt to get land back — land that’s not being used for anything else now,” Young said. “You look out upon this landscape ... all of the stories of Native people, all of the experiences, the battles, even the great civilizations have been erased from the story,” Bartecchi said. “It’s like we came here, and there was a blank slate — that’s part of how settlers justify the violence behind their settling.” Reach Austria Cohn at news@ collegian.com.

LAND BACK: RESTITUTION EFFORTS ACROSS THE COUNTRY By Piper Russell @piperrussell10 With Native American Heritage Month here, talks about land restitution efforts have been renewed, including those in Fort Collins’ own backyard. According to an article from the Haverford College Center for Peace and Global Citizenship, land restitution movements advocate to bring self-determination to Indigenous communities. The website also states the Land Back movement “does not ask current residents to vacate their homes but maintains that Indigenous governance is possible, sustainable and preferred for public lands.” In light of the recent events surrounding land back movements in Colorado, especially the fight to reclaim the site of Colorado State University’s Hughes Stadium for Indigenous communities, here are some recent and ongoing land return

efforts across the United States.

Wiyot Tribe

According to an article by Cultural Survival, the Eureka, California, City Council began a land restitution effort with the Wiyot Tribe, a tribe in the Humboldt Bay. After being massacred by nearby settlers in 1860, the Wiyot people were barred from their land. In 2004, the city council returned 40 acres of Tuluwat Island

to the tribe. The city then went on to return over 200 more acres to the tribe in 2019.

Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe

The Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe, located in Massachusetts, has been involved in lengthy land back movements that began coming to fruition in the early 2000s, according to the tribe’s website. The Mashpee Wampanoag received federal

recognition as an Indigenous tribe in 2007 and gained authorization to acquire land and reestablish its reservation. The Mashpee tribe, which filed a land claim in federal court in 1976, was granted approval for a Land in Trust application and began reacquiring tribal lands in 2015, according to the tribe’s website. The Native Land Conservancy is a Native-run land conservation group founded in 2012 in Mashpee, Massachusetts, guided by a team of almost entirely Wampanoag members, according to the group’s website. In 2015, the Native Land Conservancy received their first land donation, a 1.4-acre parcel of land in Centerville, Massachusetts, donated by resident Norman Hayes, according to an article published by Cape Cod.

Wyandotte Nation of Oklahoma

In 2019, the John Stewart United Methodist Church gave land back to

the Wyandotte Nation of Oklahoma, according to the church’s website. The nearly two acres of land had been entrusted to the church by the Wyandotte Nation for 176 years before it was returned. According to the Oklahoma Indian Missionary Conference, the U.S. government promised 148,000 acres of Kansas land to the Wyandotte tribe, but the land had been given away by the time the Wyandotte people arrived.

Ponca Tribe of Nebraska

Nebraska farmers Art and Helen Tanderup returned ancestral land on the Ponca Trail of Tears to the Ponca Tribe in 2018, according to an article by Civil Eats. The Ponca Tribe of Nebraska was forced to leave by the U.S. government along the Trail of Tears in 1879, according to the tribe’s website, but the tribe was recognized federally in 1990.

THE HIDDEN HISTORY OF FORT COLLINS ARCHITECTURE By Brooke Pippin @brookepippin00 Fort Collins architecture is a reflection of the city’s history and the characters who shaped it. “Like most communities, Fort Collins has a diverse array of building styles and types representing its evolution over time and reaction to national trends in art, architecture and culture,” said Jim Bertolini, a historic preservation planner for the City of Fort Collins. The sugar beet industry deeply impacted Fort Collins’ history. According to Fort Collins History Connection, the Fort Collins Sugar Manufacturing Company was established based on the success nearby cities had with the industry. It began processing beets in 1904. Bertolini said the evidence of the importance of the industry is seen within the homes from this era. “Perhaps the most unique are the small adobe brick structures built in the Tres Colonias, three neighborhoods developed by Great Western Sugar (Company) over the 1900s-1920s to house workers right next to the factory, the remains of which remain on East Vine Drive as the headquarters of (Fort Collins Street Operations),” Bertolini said. Many of these structures remain, according to Bertolini, and have been altered and reinforced. The sugar beet industry also led to individuals like George and Inez Romero, who deeply shaped Fort Collins’ history. Bertolini said Inez Romero arrived in Fort

Collins at 8 years old and her father worked in the beet fields. “They became important advocates for the Hispanic community, providing translating and notary public services among other things,” Bertolini said.

“The establishment of Colorado State University transformed Fort Collins — both architecturally and economically.” The Romero House at 425 10th St. is a recognized and protected landmark. The Armstrong Hotel, which opened in 1923, is the only historic hotel operating in Fort Collins today. According to the Armstrong’s website, it was used as barracks for the U.S Army during World War II. The hotel closed in 2000 and was renovated in 2002. “The building’s architecture still reflects the simple, symmetrical, ‘clean’ form of the early ‘20s,” the hotel’s website says. “The east and south facades still showcase leaded prismatic glass tiles used to diffuse light into the original lobby and retail spaces.” The establishment of Colorado

State University transformed Fort Collins — both architecturally and economically. Bertolini said the majority of neighborhoods surrounding CSU were designed and built with the intent of housing students and staff. CSU’s presence also impacted the social climate of Fort Collins. “Even much of the civil rights and social justice actions that have developed in Fort Collins were organized and led by CSU students, including the 1969 Administration Building sit-ins and overnight sitin outside President (William E.) Morgan’s residence on Shields (Street) — now CSU’s Diversity House — meant to address recruitment and discrimination on campus but also housing discrimination off campus,” Bertolini said. The oldest homes in Fort Collins are cabins from the earliest settlers of Fort Collins. Mark Serour, a founder of the Traces of the Past History Tours in Fort Collins, said Antoine Janis and his wife, First Elk Woman, had a connection to the land here in Colorado. Bertolini said this is believed to be the oldest structure in Fort Collins. “His cabin still stands in Library Park,” Serour said. “They erected a marker denoting where his original land claim was. However, if you talk to locals, they say it’s not where the original land claim was.” Cabins from this era were built utilizing nearby supplies and were typically built with efficiency in mind. “You could call these cabins rustic architecture,” Serour said. “They

were very simple in structure. They were broad thick timbers, typically a ponderosa pine. They had to be handhewn, essentially. They would have a limestone-based mortar. To put it simply, the early architecture here used native resources.” Another notable residence is the Thomas property located at 308 Cherry St.that served as the childhood

home of Virgil Thomas, the first Black graduate of Fort Collins High School. “I got to work on the nomination for this property, had an amazing time working with the owner and have been immensely proud of the attention that the nomination has drawn to Black history in Fort Collins,” Bertolini said.

LANDMARKS AND LEGACY: CONNECTIONS TO CSU HISTORY By Serena Bettis @serenaroseb At times, history can feel far away. As Colorado State University students walk from class to class, they see shiny new glass buildings and empty lots ready for construction — ultimately, a very different campus exists now than what was once here. History, however, is still present all around. One connection between the current CSU and the past is the naming of different streets and buildings on campus.

Pitkin Street

Pitkin Street, which runs east to west from South Shields Street to Riverside Avenue and goes directly through the CSU campus, is named for Frederick W. Pitkin, a Colorado governor in the late 1800s. According to Colorado’s State Archives, Pitkin served as governor from 1879-83 and was a lawyer and mining investor prior. The Fort Collins street likely got its name between the late 19th century and early 20th century, as a timeline of the 1900s from Fort Collins History Connection discusses transportation and quotes a book written by Ansel Watrous in 1911 that describes where a new railroad will go in the city. One of Pitkin’s main agendas as governor, according to multiple historical accounts, was to push the Ute tribe out of Colorado and take the land for white settlers. During his time in office, Pitkin repeatedly stated that he wanted the land of the White River Ute settlement. After a revolt by the Ute people against Nathan C. Meeker, who was attempting to “make the White River Ute settlement into a Christian farming commune,” according to the state archives, the federal government forcibly moved most of the Ute people to reservations in Utah. “Pitkin promptly offered the government all the troops it might need and was answered that the government could take care of itself without Colorado’s help,” reads an article in The Colorado Miner from Oct. 4, 1879 in reference to removal of the Ute people. In May, the Associated Students of CSU passed a resolution asking the University to rename the street because of Pitkin’s oppression of the Ute people. “By retaining the name ‘Pitkin Street,’ CSU draws forth and is complicit in historic and contemporary oppression of the Ute peoples and Nations to whom CSU has a responsibility to in our Land Acknowledgment,” the resolution said. In renaming the street, the resolution said CSU would “have the opportunity to remove any negative association to help the healing and awakening

for all students who learn at this University.”

Edwards Hall

Edwards Hall, a dorm on the southwest side of CSU’s campus, gets its name from Elijah Edwards, the first president of what was then called Colorado Agricultural College. Originally from the Midwest, Edwards was a teacher and a minister for most of his life. He served as president for three years and “conducted morning chapel services, oversaw the handful of faculty members and reported to the school’s governing body,” according to the CSU Library Archives’ biography on Edwards. In addition to housing students, Edwards Hall is home to the CSU Bakeshop, which provides cookies, cakes, gluten-free desserts, sandwiches, salads and other snacks to the CSU dining halls. Although Edwards was not at CSU for long, his history exists every time a student eats a dining hall cookie or buys a hoagie from an express dining hall on campus.

Amy Van Dyken Way

Amy Van Dyken Way, a small street that runs north to south from Oval Drive to University Avenue, has a more recent history than many of CSU’s older buildings and roadways. The street takes its name from a CSU alumni and athlete, who now goes by the name of Amy Van Dyken-Rouen. A swimmer, Van DykenRouen graduated from CSU in 1994 and was named to the CSU Athletics Hall of Fame in 1996, and the street, formerly known as West Drive, was renamed after her in 2014, according to a news story from CSU Athletics. She received the NCAA’s Swimmer of the Year award in 1994 as a senior at CSU. Van Dyken-Rouen went on from CSU to win six Olympic gold medals — four at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics and two at the 2000 Sydney Olympics, according to the United States Olympic & Paralympic Museum. Van Dyken-Rouen was the first American woman to win four gold medals in a single Olympic games, according to the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Museum. In 2008, Van Dyken-Rouen was inducted into the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Hall of Fame, and she also holds a place in the International Swimming Hall of Fame. Paralyzed from the waist down after an accident in 2014, Van Dyken-Rouen now competes in adaptive sports. Just about every CSU building, campus street or outdoor space holds a piece of CSU history behind it that gives students the ability to reflect on the past while heading toward their future.

THE RISE AND FALL OF STOUT, FORT COLLINS’ FORGOTTEN TOWN By Nathaniel McKissick @natemckissick

We’ve all enjoyed Horsetooth Reservoir and its beautiful waters and picturesque views set against scenic mountain landscapes, but very few of us are aware of what lurks deep below our beloved summer spot. No, it’s not the Loch Ness Monster or some other half-human, half-fish creature but rather the submerged quarry town of Stout, Colorado, which sat in the valley of current-day Horsetooth in the late 19th century.

“Stout’s sandstone

deposits can still be seen flanking the top of Horsetooth today and were used to build streets and buildings in Fort Collins, Denver and Greeley, Colorado.” Fort Collins residents began harvesting the bountiful sandstone deposits in the area eventually associated with Stout in the early 1870s, around the time Fort Collins was established as a town in 1873. Quarry work continued to develop, and when the Greeley, Salt Lake and Pacific Railway Company built a railroad that passed through Fort Collins and directly connected to the quarries, Stout’s position as a sandstone producer was — shall we say — set in stone. According to a 1964 Coloradoan article, Stout’s namesake likely came from William H. B. Stout, who was leasing several stone quarries in the area from the Union Pacific Railroad in the early 1880s. Stout, who built and became the warden of the Nebraska State Penitentiary before finding himself in Colorado, returned the quarries to Union Pacific in 1883, but the name probably stuck. Stout built a boarding house for quarry employees, which also ended up serving as the post office, a bakery and a place to hold boxing matches. Later, the town expanded and built a blacksmith shop, a livery stable, a feed store and three saloons, as well as a school that operated as a church, courthouse and community center. At its peak, the town was home to hundreds of people in the 1880s. Stout’s sandstone deposits can still be seen flanking the top of Horsetooth today and were used to build streets and buildings in Fort Collins, Denver and Greeley, Colorado. According to Fort Collins’ Triangle Review, sandstone from Stout was even used to build Colorado’s Capitol building in Denver.

Disaster struck in 1889 when Denver and several cities across the country began paving their streets with asphalt and using concrete instead of stone to build sidewalks and building foundations. The town began to experience economic hardship. Stout was unable to financially compete with less expensive materials, and the railroad companies investing in the town no longer saw it as profitable to continue endeavors there. From there, the Panic of 1893 decimated the town’s economic standing. Banks all over the nation closed, the railroad industry took the brunt of the fallout and quarry operations dwindled. Workers began leaving to look for employment elsewhere, and though the town remained populated until the late 1940s, it would never come close to the glory days of the 1880s. In the 1940s, the United States Bureau of Reclamation began surveying Stout and set up shop in the area, making Stout’s old schoolhouse its headquarters in 1946. The plan was to flood the valley as part of the Colorado-Big Thompson Project, a project dating back to the 1930s that sought to bring water from the western slopes of Colorado to the Front Range.

“Nowadays, a population sign reading, ‘Stout, Colo. pop 47 1/2’ stands at the base of Horsetooth Reservoir’s southern tip, although the reason behind the half is unknown.” The Bureau of Reclamation acquired the Horsetooth Reservoir property in 1946 and completed construction of the dams three years later. Water was first stored in the property in January 1951, and that was officially the end of Stout, Colorado. Following the flooding of Stout to fill in Horsetooth Reservoir, all that remained were the foundations of some buildings. Nowadays, a population sign reading “Stout, Colo. pop 47 1/2,” stands at the base of Horsetooth Reservoir’s southern tip, although the reason behind the half is unknown. Today, the only way to Fort Collins’ best-hidden ghost town is with a speedboat, but the sandstone deposits that make up our state’s Capitol building are still visible without a wetsuit and remind us of our city’s interesting history and often forgotten beginnings.

THE LEGACY OF HARPER GOFF IN FORT COLLINS

The Harper Goff house sits at 612 S. Howes St. Nov. 14. Harper Goff, “imagineer” and designer for Disney, spent his childhood in this house in the 1910s. PHOTO BY CAMBRIA GIFFORD THE COLLEGIAN

By Lindsay Barker @ lindsaybarkerj Fort Collins is a charming town full of historical, architecturally detailed buildings that eventually became an inspiration for Disneyland’s Main Street, USA and every Disney Park Main Street after that. A man named Harper Goff spent his childhood growing up in early 1910s Fort Collins. Goff was born in 1911 and lived in a two-story brick house less than a block away from The Oval and the train tracks, though his family moved to Santa Ana, California, in 1920. Years later, in 1951, he and Walt Disney had a chance encounter at a London train shop. “He was in England and so was Disney, and they didn’t know each other, but they both wanted the same train set,” Fort Collins Historical Society board member Meg Dunn said. “They both were eyeing it and clearly got into a conversation.” Goff already had an extensive career as a set designer and illustrator for many well-known publications and production companies. “Harper (Goff ) actually was

@CSUCollegian

involved in movie sets — some really famous ones like ‘20,000 Leagues Under the Sea,’ ‘Casablanca,’ … so he already had all the skills Disney was looking for,” Dunn said.

“It has that connection that everybody loves to Harper Goff, and as soon as the house is torn down, we no longer really have a connection — we just have written documents.” MEG DUNN

FORT COLLINS HISTORICAL SOCIETY BOARD MEMBER

When it came time to design Disneyland, Goff was a lead designer or “imagineer” for the project. He had photographs taken

of the buildings in Old Town to use as inspiration for designs on Main Street Disneyland. Goff took inspiration from many of the buildings in Fort Collins to create a small town Americana feel on Main Street, USA. “When Disney wanted a set that felt like good old small-town America, that’s when Harper is thinking back to all the buildings,” Dunn said. “That’s what real authentic America feels like, is our downtown.” Among these buildings were the First National Bank building, the former fire station and Old Main at Colorado State University, which burned down in 1970. Goff ’s childhood home could have also served as inspiration for the small-town feel Disney was hoping for. The two-story brick duplex on South Howes Street that Goff grew up in is now pale yellow and stucco-covered. It sits along South Howes Street, sandwiched between other century-old homes. Although the house was built in 1900, it is still standing strong and has housed many CSU students throughout the years. “It’s interesting that even though

he lived in other places after being here, and being so young, he still had that nostalgia and connection to Fort Collins,” Dunn said. Goff lived in the home as a child with his parents, Ralph and Maude. The couple got married in the house, as did Maude’s younger sister and her husband a few years after. Maude and her brother, Clark Anderson, were owners of the Fort Collins Express-Courier, which later became The Coloradoan. Although the house is technically for sale and there have been proposals for development, the historical significance of the house has made it difficult for anything to be approved. “It has that connection that everybody loves to Harper Goff, and as soon as the house is torn down, we no longer really have a connection — we just have written documents,” Dunn said. The 121-year-old house, along with a 20-foot mural by Chris Bates at The Exchange in Old Town, are the last physical ties Fort Collins has to Harper Goff. Bates was commissioned by The Exchange to liven up the space with artwork. As Bates was working, he noticed the side

street named Harper Goff Alley. He then proposed the idea to the developers to create a blackand-white, portrait-style mural of Harper Goff. Bates’ mural of Goff is a lasting tribute to his impact on the city. Bates even mentioned that Goff ’s niece and cousin decided to make a trip from Colorado Springs, Colorado, to Fort Collins to see the mural. “They drove up and sat outside and we talked about him and the mural and how cool it was; it was a really cool exchange to meet some of his family members,” Bates said. Harper Goff ’s legacy continues to live on in Fort Collins — the legacy of a man who was wildly successful but somehow still kept the love for his childhood hometown alive. “I think it’s cool to have a piece of art in town that tells a story of one of the Fort Collins legends who has had a pretty big impact on Fort Collins,” said Bates of his mural. “A lot of people don’t know — it helps shed light on this person’s legacy.” Reach Lindsay Barker at news@ collegian.com.

THE PANDEMIC IN FORT COLLINS A CENTURY AGO By Hayden Hawley @hateonhawley COVID-19 has had a tremendous impact on all of our lives, the depth of which is yet to be fully understood. Just over 100 years ago, a surprisingly similar scourge fell upon the world: the 1918 influenza pandemic, more commonly known as the Spanish flu. It’s semi-common knowledge by now that the latter designation is a misnomer caused by World War I censorship of bad news from the countries involved. Spain was neutral in the conflict, and their newspapers freely reported their infections and deaths, so the international media ran with the narrative that Spain was the epicenter of the disease. In reality, the H1N1 virus outbreak affected countries all around the world, exacerbated by the unsanitary wartime conditions. Naturally, Fort Collins was no exception. A perusal through the City’s archives reveals the interesting parallels between the pandemics of the late 1910s and the early 2020s. “To the citizens of Fort Collins: ... The Commissioners have considered various methods of quarantine but realize that a successful quarantine depends upon the hearty cooperation of our citizens,” said a public address dated Oct. 9, 1918. “Little good is accomplished by forbidding large gatherings if numerous small ones are carried on.” The quarantine was adopted, though apparently not rigidly enough. About three weeks later, the Fort Collins mayor reported about 355 cases in the city, with a later estimate putting the October/November total at 1,100 cases. “We assume that because it’s been 100 years since the last big thing, that we’ve gotten bigger and better at solving the problems that they had, but we haven’t,” said Sarah Frahm, an archive assistant at Fort Collins History Connection. “There’s also some comfort in knowing that it’s been done before, and there are measures that do matter — like social distancing and wearing masks — and we’ll get through it. It’ll be hard, but we’ll get through it because they got through it.” These were difficult months for Fort Collins, and the Colorado

Agricultural College was not at all safe from the “grippe,” as it was called. In fact, Charles A. Lory (after whom the Lory Student Center is named) lost his young twin nieces to the disease in November. “That’s one of the problems we are facing: that the deaths end up being a personal, private pain rather than a societal pain, unlike the way a war is a societal pain,” Frahm said. “That kind of makes me sad, and we are still facing that problem.” Increasingly desperate times called for increasingly desperate measures. On Nov. 23, 1918, a new quarantine was established, this one banning “all meetings of a social character” and requiring anyone infected to remain in their homes with a quarantine sign placed upon their residence by their doctor or the police if no doctor was available. “Said quarantine shall continue for a period of seven days following a return of normal temperature to said person afflicted,” the proclamation read. Item IV of the proclamation ventured into shockingly familiar territory, requiring anyone entering a place of business to wear a mask covering their nose and mouth, enforced by the proprietor of each place. “Said masks shall be of sufficient thickness to protect others from coming directly in contact with the breath of said person,” the proclamation read, “and shall be the equivalent of eight thicknesses of gauze, five thicknesses of cheese cloth or three thicknesses of butter cloth,” proving once again that old-timey units of measurement were far superior to modern ones. All told, estimates put the global death toll of the pandemic at about 2.5-5% of the world’s population, while The Coloradoan estimated in 2020 that only about 150 of Fort Collins’ 8,500 residents died, which works out to under 2%. “I think in some ways (the smaller death toll) is due to Fort Collins being not big but not so small that it didn’t have facilities,” Frahm said. “Society doesn’t change that much, certainly the way disease transfers between people doesn’t change that much, so the requirements of distancing and mask wearing make perfect sense.” Reach Hayden Hawley at news@ collegian.com.

By Anna Jelden Plants can be a great way to decorate your home, apartment, or give life and vibrance to a dull space. Being a plant parent may seem intimidating if you don’t know where to start. However, there are many houseplants that require little maintenance and can thrive in a variety of conditions.

DRACAENA GOLD STAR Dracaena warneckii

Plant Bio

The Dracaena Gold Star is identiﬁable by its bushy, dark green and chartreuse leaves that sit atop tall stalks/canes. Dracaena plants are native to Africa, southern Asia, northern Australia and Central America. This plant easily adapts to low light conditions and doesn’t like to be overwatered. Their tall, narrow stalks make them perfect for adding some height to your space. As a tropical native, this plant appreciates frequent misting. Yellow or browning leaves at the bottom of Dracaena stalks is a natural part of their life cycle. This plant loves a well-draining soil. Try incorporating perlite or coco coir into your potting mix to increase drainage. Dracaena leaves are toxic to humans and pets.

Prefers medium indirect light, but can tolerate low light Prone to overwatering, Water every 1-2 weeks, top 75% of soil should be dry Avoid cold drafts and heaters, can cause leaf damage

Did You Know? Plant leaves can accumulate lots of dust and hard water spots over time from misting. To keep your plants healthy, gently wipe off their leaves every few weeks. For an extra treat, you can spray your plant’s leaves with a neem oil spray. Mix two cups of water with a teaspoon of dish soap and a teaspoon of neem oil to keep your plant’s leaves shiny and free of pests.

SPECIAL EDITION

LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

HISTORY IS NOT BLACK AND WHITE: WHY WE MADE THIS SPECIAL EDITION By Katrina Leibee and Serena Bettis @csucollegian Editor’s Note: All letters to the editor reflect the views of the editorial board only and do not represent a stance taken by The Collegian. As November is Native American Heritage Month and The Collegian staff has many history buffs, we wanted to create a special edition that would incorporate the history of this land and the stories of this city and campus we call home. The intent of this publication is to learn and understand what came before us while both celebrating and critiquing our roots, both at Colorado State University and in the Northern Colorado area. The timing of this special edition holds significance as well — we hope to give our readers an opportunity to reflect on the nuances of history as we head into fall break, which is specifically scheduled to allow community members to celebrate Thanksgiving.

Many of our elementary schools taught us the story of Thanksgiving as one of happy moments, with humanity coming together to help each other. Yet an element to this holiday is often glossed over. Even if the first Thanksgiving was a peaceful, celebratory day of feasting — which is often taken out of appropriate context, according to Smithsonian Magazine — the following genocide initiated by colonizers of the now-called United States of America overshadows any supposed settler gratitude for Indigenous peoples.

When beginning to brainstorm for this paper, we discussed making an Indigenous history special edition, a Fort Collins history special edition and even a Hughes special edition. There are countless fascinating stories about the places we visit regularly, and we wanted to write about them all. What we concluded was that while each history is important in its own way and worthy of its own attention, each is not entirely separate from the other. Our history is interconnected, some of it horrible and unnerving, some of it beautiful and inspiring.

“We hope the stories here challenge your way of thinking, teach you about the land you walk on and the buildings you frequent and encourage more critical thinking of the lives lived on this land before us.”

They exist in the history of this place, and we decided to put them side by side in this paper to show how complex a history can be. The history of a place is not just black and white or good or bad. The ugly is often interwoven with the beautiful, which is how the topics written in this paper are. It is all written into history, and we can’t change what’s happened in the past, but we can learn from it and look forward. We live and work on stolen land every day; we attend a landgrant University that was not land freely given. We want to do more than acknowledge where this land came from: We want to uncover its history, tell its stories and create opportunities for conversation that go beyond a rehearsed and repeated acknowledgment before a sporting event. We hope the stories here challenge your way of thinking, teach you about the land you walk on and the buildings you frequent and encourage more critical thinking of the lives lived on this land before us.

We know we have not even scratched the surface of the entire history of Fort Collins or even CSU. We know that not all histories are ours to tell. There are important people and events that shaped this place that may have been erased from history, that we’ll never know about, and we know an entire history could never fit in the 32 pages of this newspaper. Even still, we hope this paper offers you a perspective you have not heard before or shows you something that will stick with you for years to come. Our history is powerful and what we do with it even more so. Katrina Leibee Editor in chief Serena Bettis Content managing editor Devin Cornelius Digital managing editor

The Indigenous history of Northern Colorado dates back over 13,000 years. C.E. 1540 to C.E. 1860 was the Protohistoric era, which many people are a lot more familiar with. Cultures from the region turned into the Native tribes we know today. Some tribes that inhabited the area were the Ute, Apache, Comanche, Arapaho, Cheyenne, Kiowa, Shoshone, Lakota and Pawnee.

The Ceramic period ended in C.E. 1850 in Northern Colorado as white settlers arrived in the United States. As settlers crossed the Oregon Trail, they invaded much of the land inhabited by the Arapaho and Cheyenne tribes and brought contagious diseases with them.

The U.S. Army established the military fort Camp Collins near present-day Fort Collins to protect migrants and settlers. A small group of Arapaho people led by Warshinun (Chief Friday) still lived in the area. When the camp closed, they were left without homes and wanted to live along the Cache la Poudre River, but white settlers denied their proposal.

Congress passed the Morrill Act, allowing land-grant colleges, a big moment for what would become Colorado State University.

Fort Collins was chosen to be the home of an agricultural college, and Colorado State University — then Colorado Agricultural College — was established as a land-grant institution.

A leader of the Arapaho, Chief Friday lived at Cache la Poudre. He lived near Fort Collins until 1869, when he was forced to relocate to a reservation in Wyoming.

Col. John Chivington led a volunteer army to kill over 100 people at a Cheyenne and Arapaho encampment.

Chief Washakie allowed Arapaho people to settle on a reservation in Wyoming when Camp Collins closed. Most remaining Native Americans were forced to move to reservations outside Colorado.

Fort Collins was officially incorporated as a town, and its first newspaper, the Larimer Express, was founded.

Fort Collins welcomed the Colorado Central Railroad.

WRITTEN INTO HISTORY

Editor’s Note: This timeline by no means comes close to encompassing all the events that were part of shaping the area we live in today. There is too much history to put on one timeline, but these events significantly contributed to the city we know today. The Indigenous history must be recognized and respected, as we live on stolen land.

SPECIAL EDITION THE GREEN AND GOLD

TO THE CSU SYSTEM — WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY?

GRAPHIC ILLUSTRATION BY NICK PERL THE COLLEGIAN

By Cody Cooke @codycooke17 Editor’s Note: All opinion section content reflects the views of the individual author only and does not represent a stance taken by The Collegian or its editorial board. We all know that Colorado State University is a “land-grant institution.” Just stroll through the Lory Student Center, and you’ll see how proud CSU is of this history. But using this phrase to simply describe the University’s “mission” while vaguely alluding to “difficult questions” about its history paints over a fundamentally criminal and unjust reality. It allows the CSU System Board of Governors and President Joyce McConnell to evade the Hughes Land Back issue and hide in a bubble of administrative obligations. As of this writing, neither McConnell nor the Board of Governors have addressed the land back issue in a meaningful way. So here’s a history lesson for them. Several Indigenous tribes and communities inhabited this area centuries before white settlers arrived. One route that settlers took into Northern Colorado was the Overland Trail, which “followed preexisting Native American trails throughout most of its length,” according to

Colorado Encyclopedia. Students might recognize the name. South Overland Trail is a road in west Fort Collins that borders the Hughes Open Space. The implications of this road literally bounding land that Indigenous locals are requesting be returned to them shouldn’t be lost on anyone. White settlers never had a legitimate claim to this land nor its resources, even by their own legal standards. Richard Williams, a Lakota elder and educator, spoke with The Collegian about the fraudulent 1861 Treaty of Fort Wise that involved the Cheyenne and Arapaho peoples on the Front Range: “It was not legal.” Colorado Encyclopedia dedicates two sentences to the treaty’s history, and the National Park Service’s website spends a whopping four sentences talking about it. The Park Service’s history even acknowledges that miners searching for gold near Pikes Peak had “occupied the legal homeland of the Cheyenne and Arapaho.” Both sources completely brush over crucial details, such as the fact that the treaty’s American negotiators had glaring conflicts of interest and profits to be made from removing the tribes, Williams said. Williams also noted that the Cheyenne Council of 44, historically one of the tribe’s main

governing bodies, was not present at the treaty’s signing and had unanimously voted to not attend because they knew they would be asked to give away their lands. “The treaty was never valid,” Williams said.

“I’m not claiming that the current Board of Governors or (Joyce) McConnell are criminals. I am calling on them to publicly confront the University’s illegal foundations.” Just one year later, Congress passed the Morrill Act of 1862, which is the illegitimate basis on which our college was founded in 1870. Today, CSU readily acknowledges that its “founding came at a dire cost to Native Nations and peoples,” but nowhere does the University confront the fact that its entire existence is premised on fraud and illegitimacy.

CSU would not exist if Americans had followed their own laws. I’m not claiming that the current Board of Governors or McConnell are criminals. I’m calling on them to publicly confront the University’s illegal foundations. They should pull their heads out of the sand of “fiduciary responsibility” and discuss the Hughes issue under moral, ethical and historical terms. David Atekpatzin Young, a member of the Genízaro Apache Tribe of Colorado, refutes the CSU System’s economic justification for holding onto Hughes. “The land was given to them for free,” Young said. Young explained the unbroken connection between the colonial conquest mindset of centuries past and the capitalist ethos governing power structures today. “There is no separation between them; they’re the same thing,” Young said. This explains why the CSU System is unlikely to do anything about Hughes because “they’re not making money from it. The right thing to do doesn’t register with them because the land is stolen to begin with,” Young said. Williams also described the Board of Governors’ argument as “pale at best.” In reference to land back efforts in general, he said, “If our argument was introduced to an international, independent court,

we would win, hands down.” Young pointed out that “no tribal community lives here” in Fort Collins, which complicates the issue of giving the land back. But he added that owning land under legal titles was never an Indigenous concept and that such titles “create problems.” But land justice can come in other forms. For example, if Fort Collins purchases the land from CSU, Young said the City could “arrange an agreement of unfettered access for Native communities to hold ceremonies.” Williams noted that Indigenous land managers could be appointed. While implementing land back measures might be complicated, the justification for doing so is straightforward and compelling. The Board of Governors and McConnell should realize that standing firm on their “fiduciary responsibility” perpetuates the same harm that our Land Acknowledgment supposedly addresses. All of Colorado is stolen Indigenous land. So to the Board of Governors and McConnell, are you content with just acknowledging the crime that we all stand on, or will you actually do something about it?

LAND ACKNOWLEDGMENT IS NOTHING MORE THAN AN ACKNOWLEDGMENT By Brendan Henry @brendanhenryrmc

Editor’s Note: All opinion section content reflects the views of the individual author only and does not represent a stance taken by The Collegian or its editorial board. Students at Colorado State University hear the Land Acknowledgment so much that it has nearly lost its meaning. Much like the Pledge of Allegiance in elementary school, the words are robotically recited but rarely pondered. The Land Acknowledgment covers two topics. For one, the institution was founded on land that belonged to Indigenous peoples, and two, the institution was erected by way of a land grant. It’s understood well that the land we call Colorado today was inhabited and utilized by Ute, Arapaho, Cheyenne, Comanche, Apache and Shoshone peoples, but many students are not educated on what a landgrant institution is and how harmful it was and is to those same people.

“There is no mention of the Morrill Act in the acknowledgment or how much land CSU received from it. Most students will probably never go out of their way to investigate this.” Signed by Abraham Lincoln in 1862, the Morrill Act gave around 10.7 million acres of land to states and territories so they could build institutions of higher education. Around the same time, American settlers were massacring and forcibly removing tribes from their homes — these settlers were given a government grant to build colleges on stolen, bloodsoaked lands. CSU received 89,001 acres of land from the Morrill Act, according to High Country News. From there the institution was built upon ill-gotten land that belonged to Arapaho, Cheyenne and Ute tribes.

The Hughes Land Back initiative is currently struggling with CSU over the 165-acre Hughes Open Space where the old CSU football stadium used to sit. Now that the stadium is gone, the land is not currently being used, and the initiative seeks to “ensur(e) unfettered Indigenous cultural access to the land,” according to their website. Does the Land Acknowledgment at CSU accomplish anything beyond covering the institution’s backside? Kenny Frost, a private Native American consultant in the protection of sacred places and identification of sacred land, is concerned with the need to educate people about the land and its Indigenous history. If the school wants to support its Land Acknowledgment with action, there would be no question of who gets ownership of the Hughes land. CSU currently plans to sell the land to the City of Fort Collins for $12.5 million if CSU can secure acreage elsewhere for its housing development plans. Frost feels there needs to be education behind the Land Acknowledgment and the history of land-grant schools. Frost said the rhetoric of modern-day politicians and educational institutions often feels like, “No, we don’t need to learn the history of the land. We can do whatever the hell we want.”

CSU NO LA WL ND ED GM E

Frost thinks the Land Acknowledgment needs more education behind it, saying the acknowledgment by itself threatens to overlook the Indigenous history of this place. “This is basically the first step towards saying that whatever happened in the history books never did occur,” Frost said. “Without issue, that’s what they’re doing as an educational system.”

“Unfortunately, the Land Acknowledgment is only a lit match in a dark room, and what the institution needs to do is turn on the light switch.” I had to do my own research on the significance of land grants. When professors simply recite the acknowledgment, they fail to educate students on the true significance of land grants.There is no mention of the Morrill Act in the acknowledgment or how much land CSU received from it. Most students will probably never go out of their way to investigate this. In order to truly understand the history and significance of the land we now use for education, we need to be educated on what the land was used for before lecture halls and football stadiums were constructed. Unfortunately, the Land Acknowledgment is only a lit match in a dark room, and what the institution needs to do is turn on the light switch. “As these words of acknowledgment are spoken and heard, the ties Nations have to their traditional homelands are renewed and reaffirmed,” the Land Acknowledgment states. If this were true, our Indigenous community members who have ties to the Hughes land would not have to fight to get their land back. CSU has decided to act in a certain way to gain profit instead of finding a way to right wrongdoings of the past. Another excerpt from the Land Acknowledgment states, “We recognize the Indigenous peoples as original stewards of this land and all the relatives within it.” This sums up the entire acknowledgment — a mere recognition, nothing above nor beyond. It is a catch-all statement to please those content with surface-level political correctness, a Band-Aid that has been broken and rendered useless by CSU’s decision-makers. The Land Acknowledgment is a step in the right direction, as those who crafted it likely had nothing but good intentions, but it will not be enough until the bigwigs at CSU decide to genuinely support Native American communities, including students and those whose ancestors lived on these lands long before white men took them away. Until then, the acknowledgment is nothing more than that — an acknowledgment. Reach Brendan Henry at letters@collegian.com.

ORIGINAL STEWARDS

PUBLIC SCHOOLS CAN TEACH BETTER INDIGENOUS HISTORY By Dominique Lopez @ caffeinateddee6

Editor’s Note: All opinion section content reflects the views of the individual author only and does not represent a stance taken by The Collegian or its editorial board. Imagine sitting down in a middle school or high school history class. You might recognize the seats around you and see the familiar faces, but what history do you remember learning in that class? Do you remember learning about the Boston Tea Party or the American Civil War? Did you learn anything about American minorities you can remember?

“Hiding Indigenous stories behind one of a white man is not only damaging but presents a skewed version of the truth.” When we take the time to look back on what we were taught in those history classes, we tend to not remember a whole lot about

American minorities’ stories, specifically Indigenous peoples’ history and the impacts that the Trail of Tears or Christopher Columbus’ arrival had on them. This is what House Bill 19-1192 strives to change within public school history classes. HB19-1192 became law in Colorado in 2019 to ensure that “matters relating to American minorities in the teaching of social contributions in civil government in public schools” are not only included but enforced. This means that those of us who frequently weren’t taught these stories in our history courses can finally look to younger generations as those who have learned a more complex history background during their grade school years. However, Derek Everett, a senior instructor in the history department at Colorado State University, brought up the reality that by “sharing so many things, (specific stories) kind of get glossed over.” Sharing multiple perspectives on a story may be hard for some teachers. But it opens up a great opportunity for teachers to allow their students to research and learn more about their own cultures through the use of the internet. This should be capitalized on, especially when it comes to learning Indigenous peoples’ history, which, as Everett said, has an unfortunate tendency

@CSUCollegian

to “disappear into the background” of American history. However, their stories never really do fade away. Nor should they become less prominent just because there are other stories to share. Hiding Indigenous stories behind one of a white man is not only damaging but presents a skewed version of the truth. When we were in grade school, lessons on this specific community typically revolved around analyzing Columbus’ journey, the first Thanksgiving and the Trail of Tears. However, Indigenous communities have continued to fight against all odds to ensure their cultures are still shared across multiple generations. Their stories should be shared because it is just as important to learn who they interacted with and how they have continued to thrive and make a life for themselves despite all of the challenges that have been thrown their way. Everett said the biggest challenge in teaching students Indigenous history is getting them to “realize that it’s not a past story alone; it’s a present story too.” CSU’s Native American Cultural Center ensures that proper stories are being shared in Fort Collins through community outreach and by creating a welcoming

The NACC not only fosters a wonderful community but works to ensure that Native American children know what they are capable of. They are working for Native American children to not only have their own sense of identity but also know they are still able to thrive within a community. Organizations like the NACC make it clear to students that it’s enriching to learn something new and especially interesting to

continue exploring that new thing. History textbooks and teachers have so frequently taught and repeated the same history that by the time we enter a college environment and take our first history class, we are shocked about how many more perspectives there are around one subject. The stories of Indigenous peoples don’t begin with Columbus and end with the Trail of Tears. They have continued to fight to ensure they have what is necessary to stay true to their past through thick and thin to make sure their stories are not only shared throughout the world but shared in a way that is beneficial to representing who they really are. Choosing to share this history may be challenging to include within the curriculum, but it is beneficial to understanding prominent stories about land back movements and Indigenous resistance. Everett said history allows people to see how “the stories that have unfolded in the places you’re familiar with day to day reflect these broader themes.” So even if students understand just a glimpse of Indigenous history, a fire may be ignited within them to want to learn more.

A 1902 edition of The Rocky Mountain Collegian advertised “the state agricultural college” located in Fort Collins, Colorado. The ad displayed six courses of study, including agricultural, mechanical engineering, irrigation engineering, ladies, veterinary science and architecture. In addition to these six majors, which resulted in a bachelors of science, the Colorado Agricultural College also had a Commercial College and Domestic Science College (also known as Household Economy). Now, over 115 years later, “the state agricultural college” has changed astronomically. Instead of just offering six courses of study, Colorado State University now has over 70 majors and 80 minors, including over 100 different concentrations.

In addition to academics, the campus has also grown at a rate that would shock the class of 1902. From radical changes in fashion, architecture and general growth, the campus has changed more than anyone could have ever predicted. While much has changed throughout Colorado State University’s history, one thing has undoubtedly remained the same: The students will always create its heart and spirit.

In the past, Colorado State University has had a history of names and changes that have shaped the way we know it now. To begin our Aggie adventure, in 1870, Gov. Edward McCook signed a territorial bill creating the school. A few years later, President Elijah Edwards, along with two other faculty members, was the first to open the doors to the Agricultural College of Colorado in 1879. Its first graduating class wasn’t until 1884, but these students made their marks through the school, attending as alumni at the school’s first-ever homecoming game many years later. This game was in October 1914 and had the alumni going against the football team at the time. The alumni ended up winning the game 3-0 but had their own fun, scoring the only touchdown, which did not count since there were 13 players on the field. Now, the school celebrates homecoming with a football game that our team plays during their regular season. Shortly after came the school’s oldest and noisiest tradition; shooting the cannon has become such a huge part of football program tradition. CSU shoots the cannon before the game on kickoff and every time the football team scores. In 1924, we saw “The A” on the hill west of campus, which was specially assembled on Dec. 4, 1923, and completed on Sept. 20, 1924. It has become an iconic way for new students to feel more connected as there is always an offer to hike to “The A”

when they arrive on campus. During Homecoming and Family Weekend, students are able to see “The A” on campus at night because it is lit up. The birth of Colorado State College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts was in 1935, removing the Colorado Agricultural College name. Then, in 1954, CAM the Ram was announced as our school mascot halfway through a Colorado A&M versus University of Wyoming basketball game, named after the acronym of the school’s name. This began the transition of Colorado State going from Aggies to Rams. CAM the Ram was first handled and cared for by the Alpha Zeta fraternity members but is now looked over by the Ram Handlers that volunteer and are picked by the CSU Alumni Association. The name for Colorado A&M did not last a long time, and in 1957, the Colorado General Assembly approved the new name: Colorado State University. After the change to CSU, in 1994, the Rams football team won their first Western Athletic Conference championship against a sixth-ranked University of Arizona team while CSU was ranked 10th in the nation. Fast forward to the 21st century, in 2015, Colorado State’s enrollment surpassed 32,000 students, with the incoming freshmen being the most diverse in the school’s history. Now, 150 years later, Colorado State still promotes the Aggie name, but the school announces themselves as the Colorado State University Rams. Reach Bryson Schminke at sports@ collegian.com.

SPECIAL EDITION THE GREEN AND GOLD

LARAMIE WOODS, COLORADO STATE CLUB LEADER AND INDIGENOUS ATHLETE

By Michael Giles

@michaelrenee10 This week’s Indigenous player spotlight is on Laramie Woods. Woods is a junior at Colorado State University studying ecosystem science and sustainability and is also president of the women’s club basketball team. She is from Ault, Colorado, just 30 minutes east of Fort Collins, and gets most of her cultural insight from her mother, who is from a Navajo reservation in Arizona. Woods said she cannot remember when she first started playing basketball, though she knows it was when she was very young. She developed such a passion for the sport while growing up and playing that she has yet to stop. “I don’t even remember the last time I wasn’t playing basketball,” Woods said. Woods has a strong value for commitment within herself and the things she puts her mind to. She initially became involved with the CSU women’s club basketball team during her freshman year. However, when the pandemic started, the club had to take a break. Woods decided to step up to take on a leadership role with the team after word started to spread that the women’s club basketball team was under the threat of not being able to continue.

“It’s either all in or all out,” Woods said. “There’s no 50/50 of your effort as well as your mental capacity towards something.”

“Sports, in general, have a big emphasis on bringing people of different backgrounds together. ... They all are resorting to something that they all love, and it’s something that connects everybody despite the background of whoever is playing.” LARAMIE WOODS

CSU WOMEN’S CLUB BASKETBALL PRESIDENT

Woods has a remarkable work ethic when it comes to being the president of the women’s basketball team. She values working as a team through collaboration and shines a light on her principle of individualism. “If you’re not strong within yourself, then how can you rely on other people to rely on you?” Woods asked.

As she leads the club basketball team, she leads the players to strive and be the best athletes they can be on the court while stressing for them to just have fun. “All of the people who are wanting to come out and play basketball are looking to play basketball, and if they’re not having fun, then they are not going to be capitalizing on all these other areas that they have the potential to be,” Woods said. “So I always push to just have fun, and don’t get down on yourself because ... that’s when everything just starts to go out the window. And I just push, ‘Don’t overthink the game of basketball, and just have fun because that’s when you’re gonna have the results of an actual good play.’” Woods not only has a huge heart for basketball but also for the love of sports in general. “Sports, in general, have a big emphasis on bringing people of different backgrounds together,” Woods said. “They all are resorting to something that they all love, and it’s something that connects everybody despite the background of whoever is playing.” To stay updated on Woods and the Colorado State women’s club basketball team, follow their Instagram page for updates on games and events coming up for the 2021-22 season @wcbb_csu.

5 BOOKS TO READ ON INDIGENOUS HISTORY, PERSPECTIVES By Ivy Secrest @ivysecrest It is so easy to practice mindless advocacy: speaking on behalf of groups you don’t understand and can never be a part of. Indigenous groups are often included in this kind of allyship. It is easy to defend groups that have been treated like relics — long gone pieces of history that can’t defend themselves. However, they can and they do. Indigenous voices are alive and well, and if you are interested in working with them, then you should listen to them. Here are books you should read if you are interested in learning about Indigenous history and modern Indigenous practices.

1. ‘Dreaming the Council Ways: True Native Teachings from the Red Lodge’ by Ohky Simine Forest

This book provides perspectives from Indigenous Canadian, Mongolian and Mayan backgrounds around shamanic practices, matriarchal structures and ways in which to embody council practices. A combination of practice and application, this book is an excellent way to immerse yourself in a universe disregarded by standard textbooks.

2. ‘Roots of Our Renewal: Ethnobotany and Cherokee Environmental Governance’

by Clint Carroll

Providing an explanation of the multifaceted ties the Cherokee people have with the lands they have inhabited since their forced removal, this book explores a connection in regard to natural resource management through Native governance. Drawing on his own experience as a member of the Cherokee Nation, Clint Carroll provides an alternative way of governing the environment and how Native practices can protect tribal lands.

3. ‘Ceremony’ by Leslie Marmon Silko

If you’re looking for more of a fictional read with overarching themes of Indigenous identity struggle and the impacts of the history you’re familiar with on Indigenous people, then “Ceremony” is for you. This novel follows Tayo, a half-Native, half-white man and his struggles with PTSD upon his return home from World War II. This book provides insight on several issues, including the consequences that World War II had on the Indigenous people who served.

4. ‘The Inconvenient Indian: A Curious Account of Native People in North America’ by Thomas King

In another summary of Indigenous history in North America, Thomas King discusses

GRAPHIC ILLUSTRATION BY TRIN BONNER THE COLLEGIAN

the influences of media on common knowledge of Indigenous groups and provides an in-depth look at a frequently brushed-over aspect of American history. If you are interested in actually understanding the Indigenous perspective, this book provides the necessary context to further educate yourself.

5. ‘Tribal Theory in Native American Literature: Dakota and Haudenosaunee Writing

WEEKLY HOROSCOPE By Hailee Stegall

and Indigenous Worldviews’ by Penelope Myrtle Kelsey

While we cannot turn back time and undo the actions of colonizers, we can do better than mindlessly regurgitating information about Indigenous cultures we learned in outdated history courses. In honor of Indigenous history and the struggles that Indigenous cultures have faced due to centuries of oppression, it is imperative that we educate ourselves, listen and make room for Indigenous voices.

difficult to let people in your emotions, but being open will make you feel more whole.

Confronting unfinished business can be scary, but this is the week to have that difficult talk (or maybe to just clean out the storage unit).

A deep dive into the use of Indigenous language and the worldview it creates, this book uses Dakota storytellers to explore broader themes of tribal theory. Penelope Myrtle Kelsey evaluates several Dakota writers in a heavily academically inclined assessment of Dakota literature and oral tradition. If you are looking to develop your understanding of tribal theory, this book is an excellent resource.

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20 - FEB. 18) Have fun this week, Aquarius. You’ve been working hard, so take some time to catch up with friends, do what you love and let loose. PISCES (FEB. 19 - MARCH 20) Pisces, communication is everything this week. Whether that’s personal, romantic or business, listening to what others are saying is the key to success. ARIES (MARCH 21 - APRIL 19) Take the little things with a grain of salt this week, Aries. Focus on the big stuff — your morals, values and beliefs that you hold close to your heart. TAURUS (APRIL 20 - MAY 20) Taurus, it’s OK to start over this week. When the world turns upside down, learn to work within it; that means seeing things with new eyes. GEMINI (MAY 21 - JUNE 20) Dig deep this week, Gemini.

CANCER (JUNE 21 - JULY 22) Cancer, commit to routine this week. Whether it’s just what you do when you wake up or your entire day, cling on to something stable to encourage productivity. LEO (JULY 23 - AUG. 22) Get on top of it this week, Leo. Use your fiery disposition to your advantage in both personal and professional settings to get all kinds of tasks done. VIRGO (AUG. 23 - SEPT. 22) Virgo, surround yourself with love this week. You’re worthy of feeling cared for, so instead of freezing people out, let them in. They want the best for you. LIBRA (SEPT. 23 - OCT. 22) Be honest with yourself this week, Libra. Get your priorities together and decide what tops the list. Don’t be afraid if No. 1 isn’t what it used to be.

TOWN TALES

DIGGING UP THE DEEP ROOTS OF 122 W. LAUREL ST.

B&B Pickle Barrel Deli is located in Fort Collins, Nov. 14. The restaurant was created as a Colorado State University class project by Robert Piccaro and Brenda Smith over 30 years ago. PHOTO BY MILO GLADSTEIN THE COLLEGIAN

By Bella Eckburg @yaycolor In the building now home to the B&B Pickle Barrel Deli at 122 W. Laurel St., purchased by Robert “Bob” Piccaro and Brenda Smith in 1988, lies a history enveloped with music and international connections. Chris Eala, who was born in the Philippines, came to Fort Collins in the late 1950s at the urging of the Colorado State University music department, which recognized his gift of repairing musical instruments. The little shop on Laurel Street became a shop called Chris’ Music. “I remember thinking, ‘Oh, it’s so small, but it’s so cute’ because he knew how to organize (it),” said Christinia Eala, Chris Eala’s daughter and Lakota activist. “Every inch of that space was ... utilized. … He made his own tools; he was an instrumental smith.” Back then, Fort Collins looked

@CSUCollegian

significantly different than it does now; Christinia Eala remembered Prospect Road being the most southern part of town, with a majority of what is now the city as just sprawling farmland. The family lived at 122 ½ W. Laurel St., just a few steps from the music shop, across the alleyway in a looming, historic seven-bedroom home. Describing the layout of the house, Christinia Eala mentioned the large French doors in the dining room, lilac bushes surrounding the backyard and the smell of fresh ringer-washed laundry blowing on a clothesline in the Front Range wind. Christinia Eala came from a multicultural background, splitting the majority of her childhood between the Lakota traditions of her mother and her father’s Filipino traditions following her parents’ divorce. She remembered participating in the Filipino lechon tradition, in which the family would slaughter a pig and dig a pit in

the backyard before slow-roasting the hog overnight to achieve the perfect crisp. The following day, the family would invite neighbors over to enjoy the celebration of culture and connection. Years later, when Christinia Eala returned from living with her mother, her father discussed his new plans for the home, recognizing the ample space and rooms to fill. He wanted to create a boarding house for international students. “He said that it’s only going to be for international students because (he said), ‘I know what it’s like to be new in this country and have people point at you, make fun of the way you look, make fun of the way you smell,” Christinia Eala said. At 17 years old, Christinia Eala was preparing to graduate high school and move to Los Angeles, to the surprise of her family. This created the perfect opportunity for her father to begin renting out the home’s rooms.

“I grew up in a wonderfully cultured … household,” Christinia Eala said. “We had people from ... Chile, South America, Central America, Thailand, Afghanistan, ... Japan. … It was wonderful.” Christinia Eala mentioned the students gathering with their friends around the large dining room table and bustling in the kitchen, the house swelling with the sounds of music and cooking. “The town was and continues to be so darn white,” she said, and the boarding house became a safe place for tradition, cultural appreciation and community at the time. The building, even now, is representative of CSU and Fort Collins traditions in the form of Pickle Barrel sandwiches. Upon entering, I was hit with the aroma of warm bread and the rumble of a bustling crowd — sprinkled with the occasional sizzle of onions on the grill. At 1 p.m., the lunch rush was seemingly unrelenting.

Third Eye Blind’s 1997 hit “Semi-Charmed Life” accompanied the cacophony of kitchen chaos as the employees worked around one another like a well-oiled machine, occasionally yelling directions to keep up with the influx of orders. The restaurant is now owned by Michael and Kara DiTullio, who bought the Pickle Barrel entity and recognized the importance of the restaurant as a staple in the community’s history. Although the building is now home to new traditions, its roots are fully intertwined with the roots of Fort Collins itself. “He was a pretty cool guy, that dad of mine,” Christinia Eala said. “That’s how I pretty much have tried to live my life. ... I still have his old filing cabinet, and on the side of it it says, ... ‘Don’t become part of a community to see what (it) can give you but to see what you have to offer — to add — to the community.’” Reach Bella Eckburg at entertain ment@collegian.com.

SUGAR BEETS AND THE ORIGINS OF LATINX FORT COLLINS

The added installation of a garden hoe statue in representation of the labor completed by the Latinx community in Fort Collins Nov. 16. PHOTO BY KOTA BABCOCK THE COLLEGIAN

By Kota Babcock @kotababcock Despite Hispanic and Latinx laborers sustaining the sugar beet industry that built Fort Collins, the history of this community is full of injustice and discrimination, especially at the hands of police. Sugar beets, which often defined and created belonging for the Latinx community, required painstaking and often thankless labor. “Beets (are) definitely the story of Latinos or Hispanics in Fort Collins,” said Ernesto Sagas, professor of ethnic studies at Colorado State University. “It is what brought ... people to this part of the country.” Sagas said despite Colorado’s reputation during the gold rush, much of the labor force in the state came as a result of agricultural work like sugar beet farming. While sugar beet farming was popular among other demographics, the primary groups that regularly returned to sugar beet farming on the Front Range were northern Mexican migrant workers and Mexican-Americans. In Sierra Standish’s thesis, “Beet Borderland: Hispanic Workers, the Sugar Beet and the Making of a Northern Colorado Landscape,” Standish explained that Latinx

workers “left behind homes and farms that could not support them or perhaps sought refuge from the turmoil of the Mexican Revolution.” Sugar beets offered a plan for economic success to many workers, who in turn brought their families from Southern Colorado, New Mexico and northern Mexico. As a result of the industry’s impact on Latinx families, the sugar mill’s former site is now home to Sugar Beet Park. The Tres Colonias neighborhoods historically housed the majority of the Latinx and Hispanic community in Fort Collins due to its proximity to the sugar mill. Sagas said the land in this neighborhood was owned by the sugar beet company and was used to give workers a connection to the area they worked on. Providing this connection meant labor would be consistent as workers would raise their families nearby. These neighborhoods allowed real estate companies to avoid moving Latinx people into other parts of the city and gave police a region they could historically “keep” Latinx residents within. “They wanted the labor of the workers, but they didn’t want their permanent presence there mingling with other sectors of society,” Sagas

said. “There’s a ... lengthy tradition ... of negative interactions between a mostly white police force and the Latinx or Chicanx community here in Fort Collins.” Sundown laws and enforcement were a significant cause of the negative interactions Sagas addressed. Sundown laws prevent non-white residents of a city from traveling to parts of the city where police or local residents do not want them. The Holy Family Catholic Church, which offers Spanish language services, became an important space for the Latinx community in Fort Collins. Once the church switched from Presbyterian to Catholic, the Latinx community moved into the surrounding areas, building a distinct neighborhood separate from Tres Colonias. Eva Martinez moved into the Holy Family Catholic Church’s neighborhood in the early 1940s, and in the 1970s, local historian Charlene Tresner interviewed her and several other members of the Hispanic community to discuss their history in Fort Collins. Martinez noted the beginning of a trend for white students to move into predominantly Hispanic neighborhoods. Years down the line,

this gradually caused rent increases along with higher house prices, especially in the Holy Family Catholic Church’s neighborhood. “For a while, there were all Spanish-speaking people around here,” Martinez said. “There’s college students moving in, on that side of the block. ... They’re not Spanish either, (they are) hippies mostly.” As these student-related rent changes continue into the present day, Sagas said this issue is driving people who lived in these communities for decades to move into more affordable areas, like Wellington and Ault, Colorado. If commuting is not an option, many Latinx families find themselves living in mobile home communities. While CSU tends to support its students and strive toward diverse enrollment, the University has its own history for the Latinx community in Fort Collins. Before the creation of El Centro, some Latinx students found themselves active in the Mexican-American Committee for Equality, Project GO or United Mexican-American Students. These organizations worked to empower CSU’s Mexican-American community to create change in Fort Collins, Denver and Boulder, Colorado.

While these organizations offered a great amount to students working to make a change in Fort Collins and at CSU, many found themselves hitting a wall when it came to getting CSU’s administration to address these issues. According to Transition, a CSU student publication from the 1960s, Mexican students collected over 1,300 signatures in support of Cesar Chavez’s grape boycott with no support from the University’s administration. Despite strides being made in what Sagas referred to as “symbolic integration” of Latinx students and faculty, the University continues to struggle with providing enough support to CSU’s Latinx community members. Sagas said Latinx professors will often not choose to move to Fort Collins for work as a result of poor pay and small, previously redlined Latinx neighborhoods. As Fort Collins and CSU work to address inequity, it is essential that both of these governing bodies look into how their own policies, policing trends and endorsements historically let down or actively harmed the Latinx community.
