New York Times Seeks Indigenous Accounts for New York State Review
1 articles · Updated · The New York Times · Jun 17
Summary
The New York Times is asking Native Americans and people who have worked with tribal members or governments across New York to share their experiences for a reporting project.
The effort aims to examine how New York State has dealt with the Indigenous nations within its borders and to gather firsthand accounts that could shape further coverage.
The newsroom tied the request to earlier reporting on weaker protections for Native gravesites, the seizure of disputed tribal gambling revenue for the Buffalo Bills stadium, and a Long Island tribe’s fight to regain recognition.
The Times said it will read every submission, use contact details only for follow-up, keep responses inside the newsroom, and publish nothing without permission.
