The illusions of the pop culture on both sides of the border has made life values blurry; knowing how to fish and hunt to feed the family is replaced by incalculable time with the smart phones and big screen TV. Colonial valued education has brought some Native people "success" with empty morals because they ignorne the problems of their struggling brother and sisters by helping with the judgemental attitude and language rooted in colonialism. The assimilated Indians no longer see themselves as coming from a "TRIBE", only when it suits them. Take the time to reach out to children and tell them the beauty of their Native Culture or else they will never know. Organize, organize, and organize. Schools cannot do the job. Perhaps write letters of support to Rosanna Deerchild and Scott Gilmore to please the ancestors.

What "Turtle Island" experienced was the importation of :The European & Mideastern Culture" as a "religion and lifestyle that even the Presenters could / can not live up to................................................................................................ ............................................................................................................................. This Euro-Notion being applied to the Aboriginal Peoples as a "Lifestyle Standard" effected the decline of a People compelling them to live a "Watered Down" Standard of care towards People, and specifically Tribal Members that exceeded the "New Dogma" Standards of Care toward one another. ............................................................................................................................... ............................................................................................................................... The "imported" value system undermined the Human Values applied to the various Tribes; that already had a "Life Style & Human Value Standard" that was so envious, the Euro-American incorporated that Model into State Constitutions (Carolinas) and eventually The American Constitution & Bill of Rights - contradicting the Euro-America's Judgement against The Red People's.......................................................................................................... ......................................................................................................................... The shameful conduct towards The Red People in the Americas to this day, is demonstrated Maltreatment and disparity in application as a "Standard of Law" according to multiple Public Cases involving Murder & Mayhem directed at The Red People's and their Young.......................................................... ......................................................................................................................... It appears that the lack of equal Care given to Indigenous Cases by Government and Law Enforcement continues into this day, as demonstrated by the Murder & Mayhem gone unnoticed by The Courts of The American Nations as a practice and unwritten policy of those Nations - to wit, The Code of Silence practiced by its Agents and Representatives............................... ......................................................................................................................... The Tribal Values and Red People's Way of Life are ignored by the upcoming generations, being overcome by Technology rather then a practical application of Physical Survivor Skills and Values.......................................................... .......................................................................................................................... An interesting Note and "Summary Judgement" of personal values stemming from Aboriginal Way of Life according to a "Warrior Ethos" was reduced to Writing by "Raven Walker" in his book entitled "The Dog Soldiers Manual"- A Practical Guide to Character Formation and like Cultivations of the Human Spirit - Writers Club Press, 2000 - ISBN: 0-595-09108-3 URL: https://www.writersclub.com - for those that may want to pursue te subject. ............................................................................................................................ ............................................................................................................................ This is not just a Nations problem as presented, it is an International Problem toward Indigenous People's of the World...................................................... ............................................................................................................................ It is the Hypocrisy of Canada as well as The United States; and nations within The Americas.................................................................................................... ............................................................................................................................ I wish this valent argument by the Author be given serious thought by The Red Nation's Elders, and Governing Bodies - where as a matter of law - The Nations are held accountable for their Malfeasance in Office by their Representatives, Agents, and Responsible Persons given Trust & Responsibility to perform their duties equally toward All Peoples.......... ........................................................................................................................ I applaud Ms. Rosanna Deerchild and Mr. Scott Gilmore for their "Intestinal Fortitude" to raise "The Red Flag" on this Question................................. ........................................................................................................................ - De Oppresso Liber - Non Gratum Anus Rodentum - ............................ ........................................................................................................................
