The Ojibwe's Relationship with their Land

The Ojibwa is a native American group living in the northern Midwest in the United States and south central Canada, refer to themselves as Anishinaabe which means human being.

What they are known for:

• Ojibwa were heavily involved in the fur trade for European goods.

• Ojibwa under Iroquois fought for independence and they expanded south and west.

• They became dependent on trade with Americans. In winter when there is no food, they had to give up lands, Salt, tobacco, hunting and fishing rights..

• Ojibwa who had been resettled on reservations could neither fish nor gather wild rice on land unsuitable for these economies.

• With the advent of the fur trade, iron tools, cooking utensils, as well as guns and alcohol were introduced, with tremendous consequences.

• The European system of buying and selling introduces to the indigenous peoples a system of "debt" with which they were unfamiliar. Goods were sold to hunters on credit, with payment in furs expected subsequently.
