Americans are not the
uncivilized savages
that the popular media has portrayed for years. It seems very easy to
forget that this land they call America
was occupied and cared for by the various peoples who had lived here
for tens of thousands of years -- long before the Europeans came. It
was their land and it was taken from them -- by force. Yes they
fought
with a vengeance. And rightfully so.
Americans are
a proud and somewhat
haughty
people. They
think their way is best and anyone and everyone who does not
conform to their way is somehow less than them. They continue to
enforce their ways upon the peoples of the world,
in spite of all the disastrous situations that have haunted this
land, time and time again.
Even those
who claim to
be religious and upright
and believe
in our religious
teachings of brotherhood and
equality have managed to declare exceptions -- the Jews, the Negroes,
the Mexicans, the Indians -- whomever may be different. And they are
ignorant of or choose to ignore the contributions these people have
made to this country and it's way of life.
The shame
of what the White ancestors did to
our Indian ancestors cannot be erased. Nor can we be accountable for
what our ancestors did in the past. But with the knowledge of this we
are accountable for what we do now and in the future. Anonymous
Poisoned Earth
By lila
We poison ourselves So we
do not have to feel How we have poisoned the earth We create a worldview
Where nature is bad, out of control, needing to be tamed So that we can
justify destroying every square inch Leaving nothing untouched
The vibrant green of the rolling
hills Where I like to walk so much Rock outcroppings colored with lichen
and paint Humans' need to deface everything Is evidenced here "LSD &
Shrooms/ Fuck Paintballers" and "Party Hard Until You Can't" are sprayed
in white on the gray weathered stone Impossible to erase Bits of broken
beer bottles, old tires, tattered clothing Litter the wood We have left
our mark And will continue to destroy the native vegetation, animals, and
people To be replaced by our docile domesticated variety We must taste
victory To want to continue plundering The last few places of wildness
This small cluster of rocky
outcroppings and green hills Are now dotted with monitoring wells less
than a month old Someone wants to build here It is clear They will test
the groundwater To cover their ass in the case of lawsuit And build their
golf course in the sky On top of the sacred lands, hidden springs, pictographs
Artwork of someone closer to the land
I understand the red man's
pain at seeing the land devoured by the white sickness, Milky puss oozing
like a festering sore out of urban cities into the wild earth to tame and
fetter it, His distrust of this being who makes agreements Always with
one hand behind its back Fingers crossed
I need this wild place to
remember my roots To remind me of my true nature To remind me of life and
my many-legged relations and ancestors, the trees, shrubs, herbs, and grasses
To bathe my eyes in vibrant green, Tara's warmest hues To bathe my soul
in the love of my kin
When this is gone, I also
will be gone
The
Cherokee, or 
(Unicode: ) (ah-ni-yv-wi-ya) in the Cherokee language, are a people
indigenous to North America, who at the time of European
contact in the 16th century inhabited what is now the Eastern and Southeastern United States.
Most were forcibly moved westward to the Ozark
Plateau. They were one of the tribes
referred to as the Five Civilized Tribes. According to
the 2000 U.S. Census, they are the most numerous of the U.S.' 563
federally recognized American Indian tribes. [3]Encyclopedia

Though curiosity about
Native American people began with Columbus,
distortions and misperceptions have an equally long history. The
admiral began it all by miscalculating his position and calling his
hosts "Indians." Over the centuries others compounded his errors by
arguing with straight faces that Native Americans were the descendants
of wandering Israelites, members of a separate branch of creation, or
humans who had sunk into "stupid repose" because they lived in a
hostile wilderness.

made to us to adopt your laws, your religion, your manners and your
customs.We would be better pleased with
beholding the good effects of these doctrines in your practices, than
hearing you talk of them. Old Tassel Chief of Tsalagi

Reading about the $90,000 heist
Seems to me these learned people didn't read the original info release
on that event. If I can recall, it was a transaction by a family owned
small company in Florida. Their information had been either high jacked
or "phished" and some malcontent simply pulled a transfer. .....Read More
