TUESDAY, DECEMBER 18, 2001 Six Native women from Canada and the United States are suing the University of St. Thomas in Minnesota for an incident at a pow-wow the school hosted. The women are members of the Sweetgrass Road Drum Group. They traveled to the school with the intent on drumming at a two-day pow-wow held last month. The women said they were told to leave by a pow-wow organizer, ostensibly because they were female and the other drum groups were male. Get the Story:
