A familiar scene plays out at the Southern border



Remember the words of the "White Supremes, Mitchell McConnell Jr"  Senate Leader?

A familiar scene plays out at the Southern border

Donald Trump wins support from Native American coalition has announced their support for Mr. Trump. A newly formed Native American Coalition is made up of members who hail from tribal organizations in 15 states and include both grass-roots leaders and elected officials.

“The daily flood of new federal regulations keep Indian Country from becoming self-sufficient.

Local tribal decisions, not federal bureaucrats, are the best way to improve our communities.

As both an enrolled member of Cherokee Nation and a member of Congress, I will stand with Donald Trump in supporting tribal sovereignty and reining in federal over-regulation,” 


said
Rep. Markwayne Mullin, Oklahoma Republican and chairman of the group.


It was congress, not President Obama or Hillary Clinton, that was flooding our land, both Indian country and Native American country, with  new federal regulations!

Remember the words of the "White Supremes' Mitchell McConnell Jr" ?


“When I first came into office, the head of the Senate Republicans said, ‘my number one priority is making sure president Obamas a one-term president.’ Now, after the election, either he will have succeeded in that goal or he will have failed at that goal.” President Obama

The 2016 election was sicken and an embarrassment to our Native Ancestors 
because of so many of our youngsters voting against the better person!

Not sure if it was because she in a woman, a Democrat, or did not visit enough to every tribe, ‘nation,’ in every state, to suit them or what the problem was?

Now my brothers and sisters that did not vote for her are crying foul?



To be clear, Native American families and Alaska Native mothers and fathers, and grandfathers and grandmothers, have had their share of children and grandchildren being separated from them for decades and some for generations.

That hasn’t stopped entirely, even with the advent of the national Indian Child Welfare Act, enacted in 1978. Congress, after four years of research and testimony, said it is against federal and state law to allow social workers and state courts to remove Native children “in order to alleviate a terrible crisis of national proportions – the wholesale separation of Indian children from their families.”

Now, Central and South American mothers and fathers today face the same evils at the southern border. President Donald Trump has repeatedly said America will not be “infested” with “these people,” and that millions and millions of them will ‘invade’ America. Those are the words he used.

New York /Ohio I remember!




Not the New York that I remember from my youth, this is the Ohio that I remember!

This is your country?

The country I wasted six (6) years of my life protecting?
This however, is not the New York that I remember from my youth!

At least a baker’s dozen of my elders (Chiefs and Clan Mother Teachers), came from my neighboring state.

This is your president’s country the one that is full of hate!

Man sucker-punched in street; people walking by go through his pockets

New York City police say a man was lying unconscious in the street after being punched when other people came by and stole from him.

Surveillance video aired by WCBS shows the victim being approached by two men in a Bronx intersection on June 18.

One of the men hit him, knocking him down.

After the two men left, several others started going through the victim’s pockets, stealing his phone and other items.

Police say the man who threw the punch then returned and took pictures of the motionless victim.

The punching victim was taken to a hospital in critical condition with a fractured skull.



Police called on Ohio boy mowing grass; now his business is booming

Jun 29, 2018
CLEVELAND  

An Ohio boy is running his own business this summer cutting lawns and cleaning up yards.

Reginald Fields, 12, is the owner of Mr. Reggie's Lawn Cutting Service. With several helping hands from his cousins, brothers and sisters, they are up with the sun every day working the neighborhood.



That's what they were doing when someone called police on them.

"They said I was cutting their grass. I didn't know it," Reggie told News 5 Cleveland.

His customer, Lucille Holt, said she was confused when she saw police, but quickly learned the neighbors called to complain that the group cut a section of their property (about a foot where the two properties join together) and were in their yard.

"They said the kids cut their grass," Holt explained.

Reggie Fields said the police said nothing to him and the other kids. He finished the job and felt a little discouraged.

"I was like, that's a shame. I didn't know," Reggie said.

But that didn't last long.

Lucille Holt created a Face book post about what happened and ended up with thousands of views and hundreds of shares.

"I guess I have a line where part of it is now my yard. They called the police to tell the police that the kids were cutting their grass," Holt said in the video.

Now, Mr. Reggie is getting a lot of support for his new business from people who see the video and want to make sure he's never discouraged again.

"People are in boxing me like, 'how can I get in touch with these children? Where are they at? I got property I want these kids to cut,'" Holt said.

Reggie, his siblings and his cousins are getting calls from all over the city now.

Reggie said he's trying to save the money he earns to buy new equipment and grow his business.

"Just give me a call. I will be there. On time!" he said.

As for the neighbors who called police, they called News 5 to say they saw the Face book video, but didn't want to go on camera.

Thank-you Menlo Park, for your visit from the west-coast to our little corner of the country, over on the east-coast.


The teaching that I received from my elders, now ancestors, was given freely.


So,
thanks to places like Face book and Word press and , Google
 
I can teach my elders knowledge and also teach freely.

Welcome to the visitor from Wilton, Maine
To
Smudging and why?
02/02/2011



To start with, people in your area I call (gazinta), now, now hold on.

Before my retirement I had thousands of good friends from Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, upper New York and parts of Canada while heavy into our culture and ceremonies with my family.


This was until the end of the 1990’s and Cardiomyopathy.

My only point is,

"Yes, I know the ancestors in and around your town and our village".

Our elders called our people ‘Gazinta’s’ because our ancestors come from many tribes using the Algonquin and Abenaki language in the New York/New England Area.

Always remember.

"While smudging in your/our area, it is as a prayer to and a blessing from Creator, because only Creator can bless, never a creation of your Creator".
