CREDITS:I did the little map. Info comes mostly from American Indian Reservations and Trust Areas, U.S. Economic Development Administration, Department of Commerce, 1996. Veronica Velarde Tiller compiled this up to date information from tribal council sources for all tribes; same super-valuable info as she has in her book, advertised on her website. Other sources: Encyclopedia articles on Minnesota Indians, Minnesota Indians publication of the league of Women voters, and tribal periodicals. The casino logo comes from a guidebook to Minnesota Indian casinos, sold by the Minnesota Gaming Association. T
