The Sandy Lake Band of Ojibwe

The headmen and chiefs of the Sandy Lake Band of Mississippi Chippewa were signatories to several treaties with the United States. Although it was never terminated, the band, like many other indigenous bands, is not recognized by the federal government, see Indian Entities Recognized and Eligible To Receive Services from the Bureau of Indian Affairs. For decades, Band members have been trying to gain recognition
