Ah ~ you did deliver this well...spoken with passion and brings the reader to awareness. Wonderful Mercedes/Poetik -
*this reminds me of when I was a child and we shared our names - Mine was Connie Elyse Broussard and this would make some turn their literal noses up in the air - and a giggle with the creole/cajun french (jokes and such) - it gave me a complex - for a very long time - I'm not only french creole but, - I'm english, german, irish and cherokee indian --- I'm a MIX of society - a breed I consider unique ~ Elyse is inspired by your writings ~

Why do people have to stay stupid for years? I am not sure. They should listen to him instead of making excuses about his name and do some right things about these issues.

It is a travesty and I agree it needs to end! You have stated it very poignantly, too! sam

Poet
This is powerful! I am a Canadian, and I know a
lot of history; but I was suddenly reminded of something that I
know but not often think about - how very
little I know about the history of our native populations...

this is so heart breaking. It could be Australia too.
Some debts can never really be paid, not for seven generations times seven.
