"Hi There,

Today in St. Louis folks are standing up to Peabody Energy and demanding they take accountability for their actions. Among the protesters are members of the Navajo tribe from Black Mesa and residents of the coalfields of Appalachia. They have come together in solidarity against Peabody’s devastating practices; from the relocation of Navajo and Hopi people of Black Mesa in Arizona to the stripping of Appalachian miners pensions, Peabody exploits the communities wherever it works. Can you take a minute today to tell Peabody that their practices aren’t okay? Peabody is the largest coal company in the world: let’s shut down their switchboard today!

Here’s a script you are welcome to use for your call:

Hello Mr. Boyce /Peabody. I’m ____________, I’m calling to hold you accountable for your role in the destruction of communities and the environment as the CEO of Peabody Energy. To begin to repair the damages you and your company have caused you need to immediately stop stripping indigenous lands, take financial responsibility for the Patriot pensioners and stop your role in the climate crisis.

You can call Greg Boyce's (CEO of Peabody) home phone at (314) 925-8005 or Peabody itself at (314) 342-3400. Feel free to email him at ghbusa@aol.com if you’d like to tailor a longer message to him!

Your friends at RAMPS, BMIS, and MORE!" via http://supportblackmesa.org/

White folks cannot put songs into arrows, but NEED to hear them.

"...This is a very special message and a song from the Havasupai Nation, where pure water flows from all first nations heart, the mother earth she will give you a triumphant victory, you are all the great grand children of Sitting Bull and Bigfoot great sacred love and earth brother respect be sent to all of you, let peace be accepted in your hearts and holy happiness will come to you, love your people and love your land, stand and centralize."

From the incarcerated mind of a true patriot.

"The health of our environment transcends across all walks of life. If we don’t have healthy water, healthy air, healthy food, and healthy children we will not have a healthy future. That is the law. I can’t say enough how important it is that we communicate and join hands with our Indigenous Brothers and Sisters all over the world. We need to join together to bring about the change of these corporations who trample on our environmental rights.

I encourage you again to seek out the organizations that are already involved in this endeavor, and remain united with one another. I will encourage all the People that I work with and have worked with to do their part in this struggle. I’ll close for now, but in the Spirit of Chief Teresa Spence keep on keeping on, and idle no more!"

Enough Already !!!

"Brothers and sisters:
Compañeros and compañeras:

Before, we had the good fortune of honest and noble attention from various media outlets. We thanked them for it then. But that was completely erased with their later attitude.

Those who bet that we only existed in the media and that with the siege of lies and silence we would disappear were wrong.

When there weren't cameras, microphones, pens, ears, and looks, we existed.

When they defamed us, we existed.

When they silenced us, we existed.

And here we are, existing.

Our pace, as has been demonstrated, does not depend upon our impact in the media, but rather upon the world's and its parts' understanding, upon the indigenous wisdom that dictates our steps, upon the unflinching courage that comes from below and to the left." ~ E.Z.L.N.  http://bsnorrell.blogspot.com/2012/12/zapatistas-announcement-of-new-steps.html

Euro ~ Your Owe ~ You're Oh

We say this is the start of 2013 here in Philadelphia.
Folks costumed as Indians paraded in the street followed by
the Pope, flanked by nuns and Italian flags.

World Wars never ended.
Armistice just meant we stopped the American military assault on Europe.

Rome still cradles the Vatican, London still validates Germanic dominance,

righteous Indigenous cultures still hunger for the majestic growth of common good.

Judges and lawyers continue to profit from the illusion of justice.

Wanna be warriors continue to hunt for enemies to destroy
perfectly advancing the evil world that they despise
hiding their regret with lies and drugs.

The destruction of the New World was first monetized with animal pelts and woodcrafts.

Then monetized by Spanish bullion.

Then standardized by British sterling.

Then corrupted by Nazi thefts and Swiss secrets.

Then obliterated by G.H.W. Bush and his families' cartel.

Now perpetuated by our hunger for harnessed electricity.

T.G.I.F. ~ thank God it's Friday

The culture of lies and theft that is destroying our planet is full of glib jests regarding
THE END OF THE WORLD
as allegedly predicted by one of the few manuscripts that survived the fanatical genocide that is European Christianity...

which is just another ignorant refusal to recognize the wisdom and culture of

Indigenous Americans.
