The 800 US military bases around the world today started with forts in Indian Country. Today we push back. That we are here, still alive and still being who we are is defiance and protest enough. Of course, if you want more, then there’s the Old Growth Alliance’s Columbus Day Protest.
If not a protest, then why not start a Tribal College? Don’t worry, you don’t need to ask permission to start one. Nor do you need any money, or a degree. All you need is a true heart and a commitment to the survival of your people.
Use today to make a commitment to your people, even if you aren’t American Indian. Mark today as the day you started building your tribe; building your people. Today is now, and I use it to look to the future of my people.
