This site up showed
on my Face Book today.
I really enjoy
reading and the pictures.
Have not as yet
joined?
Not so sure that I
am worthy because as my friends on WordPress know, I am very opinionated at
times and might take away from the great work that they are doing.
If I may I would
like to say that I prey a special blessing from Creator to a member of this
group.
And a Thank-you
(Taw-but-ni) to Kathleen Johnson for a writing that I wish for all of my
followers to read?
Native American
Student Contradicts History Prof Who Denied Indian Genocide.
And Is Bullied By Him!

U.S. History
Professor Maury Wiseman teaches at Cal State Sacramento, where Chiitaanibah
Johnson is taking his U.S. History class. Ms. Johnson is Native American, with
Navajo and Maidu heritage. During a lecture last Wednesday, Prof. Wiseman told
his class that he did not like to use the term, “genocide,” as he felt that did
not describe what happened to Native Americans.
Ms. Johnson refuted
that and was expelled from Wiseman’s class.
Johnson told the
Indian Country Today Media Network:
“The whole thing
started on Wednesday.
He was talking about
Native America and he said the word genocide.
He paused and said
‘I don’t like to use that word because I think it is too strong for what
happened’ and ‘Genocide implies that it was on purpose and most native people
were wiped out by European diseases.’”
Ms. Johnson was,
rightly, angered by this declaration but held her tongue.
She did her
research, (including the fact that many of those European diseases were
inflicted on purpose) gathered her evidence and, on Friday, presented it to
Prof. Wiseman.
The discussion that
day was about the Iroquois Confederacy and the Portuguese expeditions.
Johnson says that
Prof. Wiseman made a point of saying that the indigenous tribes were not
peaceful and were killing one another before Europeans arrived.

The Native (first
people of this land) were, are and it looks as if will always be extirpated far
more then my brothers and sisters of the Jewish faith, no disrespect intended
to the Jewish decadents.
How could any
university in the United States of America have hired such an ell advise entity
and who are his ancestors one must wonder?
