The logo and tribal slogan, “Heritage, pride and strength” appeared prominently on the ads, some of which were displayed at stores in Lumbee territory. The usage prompted outrage. “As alcohol and drugs abuse are often associated with Native American culture, the use of the Lumbee tribal brand and an image of a Native American dancer in an advertisement promoting an alcohol product is viewed as particularly offensive to Lumbee people.” Chairman, Harvey Godwin said, in a June 9 statement.  Although, the distributor removed the signs the same day, the tribe was compelled to file the lawsuit because its trademarks were used without permission. http://www.indianz.com/News/2016/06/20/lumbee-tribe-sues-after-name-and-logo-us.asp Case filing: https://turtletalk.files.wordpress.com/2016/06/lumbeecomplaint.pdf   Victory for Tribes as SCOTUS Ties in Dollar General Suzette Brewer   6/23/16 Read more at http://indiancountrytodaymedianetwork.com/2016/06/23/breaking-victory-tribes-scotus-ties-dollar-general-164903   Saving  Sacred Sites: The Snoqualmie (pronounced Snow Qual mee) Falls are threatened.
