Native American Business Alliance Rallies to Support Native Businesses
The Native American Business Alliance of Long Island welcomes the press and members of Tuscarora, Seneca, Onondaga, Oneida, Cayuga, Mohawk, Pequot, Narragansett, and other Nations to a rally to support our grassroots effort to protect our economic independence.
PRESS CONFERENCE: Wednesday, June 14, 2006 12:00 Noon Unkechaug Powwow Grounds Poospatuck Lane OPENING REMARKS: Unkechaug Chief Harry Wallace SPEAKERS: Native American Business Owners and Employees Guest Speakers TOUR SHINNEthingy SMOKE SHOP: 2:00PM Raindrop's Quick Stop 40 Montauk Highway, Southampton NY 11969 Please join us after the press conference as we caravan to the Shinnethingy reservation for a rally and an opportunity to take a tour of a Shinnethingy- owned small business. Parking also available at the Shinnethingy Museum at 100 Montauk Highway.
Directions to Unkechaug Powwow Grounds from points West: Take Route 27 East to exit 58S (William Floyd Parkway). Make a left (East) onto Montauk Highway. Make a right onto Herkimer St. Bear right onto Mastic Road. Bear left on Poospatuck Lane. Powwow grounds straight ahead. (Using Mapquest, enter 112 Poospatuck Lane, Mastic, NY 11950 for approximate destination.)
The Native American Business Alliance of Long Island represents the Nations and the Indian-owned stores of the Unkechaug and Shinnethingy Nations. We have formed this coalition because without help from our friends, neighbors and business colleagues, these stores will be shut down -- ending a vital source of economic activity. These shops are the primary employer of hundreds of Long Island Indians and put revenue back into the reservation and the local non-Indian community on a daily basis. This is a crucial source of self- sufficiency and most stores put some of their profits into community development, housing, education and healthcare.
