To
our elders who teach us of our creation and our past so that
we may preserve mother earth for ancestors yet to come, we
are the land; to our relatives before us thousands of years
ago and to the 150 million who were exterminated across the
western hemisphere in the first 400 years time starting in
1492, to those who have kept there homelands and to the
nations extinct due to mass slaughter, slavery, deportation
and disease unknown to them, and to the ones who are
subjected to the same treatment today, to the ones who
survived the relocation and the ones that died along the
way, to those that carried on traditions, and live strong
among their people, to those who left their communities by
force, and by choice and to generations who no longer know
who they are, to those that fall for the lies that and join
the dividing lines that keep us fighting amongst each other,
to the outsiders who step in good or bad and to those of us
that don’t know better, to leaders and the prisoners of war,
politics, crime, race, and religion; innocent or guilty, to
the young, the old, the living, the dead, to our brothers
and sisters from all living things across the mother earth,
and her beauty be destroyed and deny the honor that the
Creator has given each individual; the truth that lies in
our hearts, to all our relations....
