Has anyone checked this one out? This is a Nation that was established in 1998 in Kansas. Sheesh there is an on-line application for membership.

There have been people pointing to them as frauds since it began, not just them but the splinter group that broke off, Red Nation Inc.

Indian Center must get its identity back

What the Mid-America All-Indian Center needs is more visitors, members, donors, school groups, facility rentals of its city-owned building -- more support from the community it has served for 29 years.
What it did not need was for someone to take the liberty of filing paperwork with the Kansas secretary of state's office renaming the center and purporting to take control of it.
Yet that is what Chief Randy Two Bears Standing Tate of Augusta recently did, renaming it RedNation of the Cherokee Mid-America All Indian Center and compounding the center's problems just as it was seeing impressive success in getting its finances and governance in order.
The fact that Tate was able to pull this off at all -- and at a cost of $90 -- is shocking. Should changing the name and board leadership of an organization in Kansas, let alone a tax-supported one, be as easy as logging onto the secretary of state's Web site and dropping $90?
Obviously, city officials should have ensured they renewed the center's incorporation papers before the end of a grace period last month. But what sounds like an honest mistake on the city's part doesn't justify the actions of Tate, who is not a board member and hasn't been engaged in the center's rebound.
Tate told The Eagle that he was upset about the center's problems. But making more trouble for the center was not the answer (and by saying in the paperwork that he was the center's president when he wasn't, Tate may have made legal trouble for himself).
City officials continued Thursday to get the paperwork started to fix the problem. That's good. Tate can do the right thing now by being helpful in correcting the situation.
Now, it's time to get on with the vital job of helping the Indian Center reposition itself for the future. A great milestone was reached last week, when acting chairman Newman Washington presented the Wichita City Council with a check for $112,000 to apply against the balance of the city's $175,000 loan early this year.
"We want to re-establish credibility," Washington told the City Council, which last week also voted to spend $600,000 on overdue cosmetic improvements to the center.
The community should be part of helping the center succeed at that goal and more, so it can fulfill its mission as a cultural treasure.

State restores Indian Center's name

The Mid-America All-Indian Center has its name back after a short stint as the RedNation of the Cherokee Mid-America All-Indian Center.
The Kansas Secretary of State's office has approved new paperwork filed by the board to restore the original name.
In late September, Chief Randy Two Bears Standing Tate, who leads the RedNation of the Cherokee, discovered the board's annual report was overdue.
Unhappy with the way things were going at the center, he paid $90 to update the center's non-profit status and filled out some paperwork changing the name.
He also made himself the center's president. His wife and sister were also named as officers to the surprise of the city, which owns the building and the original board of the Indian Center.
Tate said today that he is consulting a lawyer.

I hope he is consulting a lawyer. And I hope that the lawyer is telling him to pack his bags, he's going away. Finally Mr. Tate has bit off more than he can chew and I can't wait to see charges brought against him for fraud.

:D

  For 15 bucks you can be Indian and the "War Chief" is a Ninja Master.

He and his wife are pretty well known. After the problems in Kansas they tried Georgia, another group had a similiar name. I see they are back in Kansas. http://www.newagefraud.org/smf/index.php?topic=284.msg2090#m

Some of what Tate is saying now is unintentionally comical.

http://www.rednation.org/chiefs_message.html
"The Great Mystery always gathers his tribes in times of his great works, he has gave us knowledge the Ancestors passed on to us by Visions of the great ones like Black Elk, Crazy Horse, the Prophet WhiteFeather to name a few."

So Tate is claiming to be Lakota now?

"I am only a voice in the wilderness..."

No wait, he's claiming to be John the Baptist.

"It's time for the Visions to be fulfilled on the Earth; one about to happen is Black Elk's sight of the Healing of all the Nations Hoop and the Dance around the Sacred Tree of Life....As told by an Ancestor Frank Fools Crow."

Now he's back to claiming to be Lakota.

NOte that it's 15 bucks a year to be a member.

A thread on them saying they have members from Europe and use old westerns to train their members.

"They use old 'F Troop' videos for training films"
My God! I thought those things were destroyed before they ruined more intellects.

What about the 10th level blackbelt, Commando Kai Ninja Master "War Chief"? Does he use those old Eighties bad Ninja movies as training films?

Oh, I don't know -- maybe old re-runs of 'Gilligan's Island' might be more useful for 'real information'  ;-)

Remember back in Oct. 2005 when Tate took the liberty to change the name of the Mid-America All-Indian Center in Wichita, also naming himself president?  I did not see anything in local papers since the incident in 2005. I tried to followup with the media and had no luck.  Does anyone know if charges were ever filed?   --Patty

I don't think they were. As I remember being told he and another went to Georgia to fight over the name. Told he would face legal actions there, so I guess he went back to Kansas. But my imformation is second hand.

There seems to have been a split, frauds fighting it out amongst themselves. And for some reason one faction now is based in Australia.

It has been brought to our attention, that because there are Elders and ones whom do not have access to a computer we need to place a snail mail address up for people to send to:
RedNation
14 Goorawin Rd
Orange 2800
New South Wales
Australia

--------
There is absolutely no mention of who they are on their site I can see. The comments do mention, besides "White Feather" a man named Sander. Clicking his name takes one to a German site selling discount drugs for erectile problems. :o
There is a ridiculous lists of elders they claim, mostly the most famous NDNs everyone knows. Though they do mistakenly call one of them "Dragon Canoe." ::)
I suppose we should be grateful there's no mention of "Sitting Fool" and "Crazy Course"...

It's still Shaunsay Tate. No word on why in Australia.

According to their blog, they talk about the group splitting into RedNation and RedNation of the Cherokee.  So there are two groups out there now.

As for Australia, Whitefeather writes in in the blog - Nov 2010:
"I am presently now in Australia, working with the Aboriginals here for the past three months, and have been creating a very positive connection and branch here for "RedNation" as a whole and all over the world."

So I guess either they are still there or have set up some connection. 

 ;) Today I saw a slide share "vid" about the many "wannabe" Cherokee "Tribes"....it brought to mind Shaunasay "White Feather" Tate and the Red Nation of the Cherokee...I wondered what ever happened to them and were they still out and about. So, I hit google. Found some interesting articles associated with her name. I knew she had joined the site "NING" some years ago and noticed that her profile stated she was in Australia....couldn't quite figure out why, until i came across this article:
http://www.augustagazette.com/article/20100812/NEWS/308129904

"In 1982, Shaunasay was in an injury traffic accident in Alabama and alleges she had an out-of-body experience. She came to when they were checking her into the emergency room when they identified her as a  "caucasian woman."" hmmmm imagine that!!  ???
