The Native Northeast Research Collaborative (formerly The Yale Indian Papers Project) is an inclusive digital humanities endeavor that engages tribes, scholars, educators, students, and the general public in the study of the Native presence in the Atlantic Northeast.  With tribal partnerships extending throughout New England, New York, and the Mid-West, the Collaborative represents an innovate model of intercultural cooperation that brings research on Northeastern Indians into the 21st Century.

Engaging the Communities
One of the items soon appearing in the Native Northeast Portal is Thomas Commuck’s Indian Melodies.  Printed in 1845, the work celebrating Indigenous resilience is possibly the earliest musical publication by a Native American composer.

In 2018, members of the Brothertown Indian Nation, students from Yale University, and the local shape note singing community gathered to sing and share Commuck's music.
