How about Reconcilliation Day?
Don't forget about me......
Thank you, Stringsinger....
Maggie, does it *ever* occur to you that I should NOT be having to take up the cause of the Native Americans in the first place, because YOU folks should have taken it up centuries/decades back???????
You wanna take up the cause of the Gypsies over here? Be my guest! I tried to raise hell over Dale Farm and got EXACTLY the same reaction from some folks over here, getting banned off the page of the Council who evicted them and banned from contacting the racist bastard of a councillor who drove their eviction through, costing the tax payer a bloody fortune and breaking up families...Most of the Travellers/Gypsies in this country are treated like scum, being pushed off the road more and more, into houses, into 'good little lives' like the rest of the 'good little citizens' becoming just as controlled as the rest of us.
I don't tell YOU who to fight for, what or who to get passionately angry over, so please, don't patronize me for being ragingly angry at the shite going down here!
IF I'm making some of you feel awkward....GOOD!!!!!!!
And what TRULY fecks me off is that the Native Americans are trying to offer that Hand of Reconcilliation out but does The Good Ol' White Man want to take it? Nope! Most of the time, he's too busy stuffing fecking turkey down his throat to even THINK that his Thanksgiving Celebration is built on Genocide, on a Holocaust which was written out of the history books until recently, on a Secret Squirrel Mass Murder and Raping of an entire Culture!
You tell me that you have exams in this and that to do with Native American history, yet here you are telling me to basically shut up, go away and talk about something else???????
Well, FECK THAT, Maggie!!!
*******IF******* you TRULY cared then you'd be standing RIGHT BESIDE ME, throwing your hands up with absolute glee that The Message was finally get out!!
Yet you choose to try and silence me??????????????????????????????
Feck fecking Degrees and Examinations in this and that, for I pour my heart and soul into what I believe, what I have studied, discovered, been so APPALLED to discover!!
And as to the person who yet again has chosen to call me by a name which he has no right to call me by, just wait and see what Paul McCartney may soon be doing for Leonard Peltier! And nope, you ain't gonna find out anything more until I know if Paul is going to stick to his word, but his manager has sent a message to the person I wrote the letter to Paul for...and we are both *staggered* by his reply...
So shove that where the sun don't shine...and don't forget about those who truly built your country, when you sit down tomorrow..for in THEIR hands the Rivers, Land, Mountains and all Species were Respected and Mother Earth was doing superbly well..
I'll leave you with Marlon speaking one helluva lot of truth...
Marlon Brando speaks out
