  • Despite the church's role in residential schools, religion flourishes in many First Nations communities today.
    From season six of APTN Investigates, Melissa Ridgen explores the battles some communities face between the church and those who engage in more traditional or cultural practices.

    The most infuriating thing about the ENTIRE situation is the significant historical debate and scholarship until about the 1920s regarding the linguistic and cultural similarities between multiple indigenous groups from South, Central, and North America (including Anishinaabe) with Biblical Hebrews, which is to say with the ten lost tribes of Israel. A position held by Menasseh ben Israel as one example. Then Britain made that Ba'alfour declaration and just a few years later Canada's Indigenous Nationals Declared Illegal Alien Nationals act is changed to eradicate WHOSE language and culture from Canada prompting that Austrian fellow and his German political party to show a marked interest in Canada's reserves and residential schools...
    So it may well be that a pastor who I don't doubt would say that he supports Israel, does not even know who Israel is to such an extent that he does not know he is an Israelite denying other Isrealites charity on the basis of a Babylonian interpretation of scripture (and history) spoon fed to him by the British Crown in subservience to the Pope.

    p. 10 Gchi-Naaknigewin (the Constitution of MDP First Nation)
    18. Code of conduct- All members of Eniigaanzijig have a moral and LEGAL responsibility to conduct their affairs in a manner that RESPECTS the best interests of MDP First Nation, including the TRADITIONAL values of the Pottawatomi.
    p. 5 Edbendaagzijig of MDP First Nation are guaranteed the practice of all their Aboriginal and Treaty rights, including the rights to PRACTICE their TRADITIONAL Spirituality.
    Edbendaagzijig have the rights to EXPECT that their Traditional values will be RESPECTED in all matters of public governance, including respect for future generations.
    Every Edbendaagizid has the right, WITHOUT DISCRIMINATION (...), in respect of matters that *directly and significantly affect him/ her.*
    Every Edbendaagizid enjoys the PROTECTION of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.
    p.4 Declaration
    As Pottawatomi Anishnaabe we are the Keepers of the Sacred Fire for the Council of Three Fires Confederacy. We are Spiritual People and we recognize the RIGHTS of Edbendaagzijig to PRACTICE our spirituality FREELY. The Creator and the memory of our ancestors dwell in all the places of our homelands, as they always have and will for time immemorial.
    p.3 Declaration of principles and jurisdiction
    We know the Creator also gave us RESPONSIBILITIES to RESPECT and HONOUR each other, and the Land.
    p.9 Authority
    4. The power and authority of the First Nation to govern flows from the Creator to Edbendaagzijig, and from Edbendaagzijig to Eniigaanzijig according to custom, and law.
    *I read nothing in there regarding the Protestant denomination's right to dominate and decimate.
    You?

    by white society, she means traditionally white values, folkways, customs, normalities, and mores from a sociological perspective. it is becoming outdated to use skin colors to denote this now that so many races have converted to the "white" cultural values.threw the past genocide. there is even black people allowed in the KKK as long as they uphold that the "western way" and the "white way" is the supreme way of being. the way that is the most efficient, the way that is the best....which includes every facet of living modern life. Doctors, Psychology, Education. parenting, matriarchy, it's all been culturally erased.

    Why is your jet black hair all blonde? than?? aren't you proud of your hair color as a NATIVE American??

      you should not assume this it is literally violent. people have many reasons for changing hair color..... but ide like to note that you can still be proud of yourself and want to eliminate safety issues sometimes it is safer to be blonde when there is a lot of racist people around your neighborhood. for instance if there were a lot of racists around who called you a native who gets everything for free would you want to brand your car and risk having it beating up? that just isnt smart.... we can change our hair color is a rabbit any less proud to be a rabbit because they change their coat in the winter to camouflage? i think she is pretty, hair bleaches naturally anyways both my children-borne blond. not all natives have jet black hair anymore.....
