D-Day

74 years later, we remember D-Day

June 6th 1944

A battle of good against evil, for freedom for the whole world.

The cost in lives on D-Day was high. More than 9,000 Allied Soldiers were killed or wounded, but their sacrifice allowed more than 100,000 Soldiers to begin the slow, hard slog across Europe, to defeat Adolf Hitler’s crack troops.

Welcome to our visitor from the Bronx, New York.

We have had a number of visitors from your area

as it should be

our ancestor’s culture and ceremonies

were the same or close to it.

How about if we dig into at least this important part of our culture?

Our area, not sure about around you, the gatherings were called

Paw-paus

http://mysmudgingblog.blogspot.com/p/paw-paus.html

With this gathering everyone was on the same page, so to speak.

Because this is our Church

(Chachu)

Soon after ‘First Contact’ the Euro-Americans started to show an interest in our ceremonies.

Not one of them seemed to care

that they were entering into a church,

no booze,

no weapons

and

a pure heart!

How many drunks foul-mouths womanizers, with guns do you see in your church?

The only way around this was to hide the ceremony and change the name to a

(FAKE CEREMONY).

Our Shechaim

And

From around the area

turned the problem

over

to our Clad Mothers

https://sachemspeaks.wordpress.com/matriarch/

Again as it should be.

Our god we call Creator, our demon we call powwow.

So the gathering in public

is now called

‘our powwow.

Websites are important starters for learning.

Blogs are important for getting your information on a subject that is of interest.

However, pages allow one to get down to the Nitti-Gritty about the subject that is of interest.

Taw-but-ni (Thank-you), for your interest and remember, questions are always answered.

Back around the middle of the 1980’s the then president made laws, west of the Mississippi (Indians), started east to teach our people how to be Indians!

I have the utmost love and respect for my Indian Neighbors

always have always well however, we are not Indian,

Feather not Dot!
