Following this invitation to have you listen in today (Sunday) to NAMAPAHH FIRST PEOPLE'S RADIO is a repost from BlueJay who hooked me up with Faith Spotted Eagle of the Yankton Sioux Tribe -Wagner, South Dakota.

Faith Spotted Eagle will fill us in about the Longview Hog Farms of Iowa's project and why she and others are concerned about it.....
today (Sunday) 4-5PM PST
streaming online at : www.ksvr.org

If you have questions for my guest or an opinion about this particular situation please email me at robin.carneen@gmail.com

( racists/rude remarks will not be tolerated on either side)

Here is the latest from BlueJay about this issue-

Hello everyone,

Just got off the phone with my friend there and she said that they had gotten the video, below, up on You Tube. Forward it on PLEASE!

Also, seems there is much more to this issue than just, as the mainstream media is saying, that the "smell" is what is upsetting the locals.

WRONG ANSWER! There is a fresh water stream that feeds directly into a beautiful WETLAND AREA! Yes indeed... great place to put a several thousand population hog farm.

Will keep you posted as to where this is headed. My sister said to tell all of you THANK YOU! They appreciate the prayers and support very much.

Robin Carneen at NAMAPAHH radio and I are trying to get this issue onto the radio tomorrow with a rep. from Yankton, so keep an eye out for that bulletin too.

Thanks everyone, for your prayers and support,
Bluejay

My second call in guest is Brenda Golden a Native American woman from Oklahoma...she is letting us know about S.P.I.R.I.T.

(Society to Preserve the Indigenous Rights and Indigenous Traditions)
and actions & steps they are taking to re-educate societies about her tribe and others all across the United States....

Brenda Golden was born in Clinton, Oklahoma but was raised on her family's original allotment outside of Clearview, Oklahoma. They still own their original 160 acres, although it is so fractionated she says, that they probably (maybe) own a 1/2 a foot of land now.

She is of the Raccoon Clan of Alabama Quassarte stompground and Creek Chapel Methodist Church. Her mother is full blood Mvskoke but did not teach her the language, but she has learned the customs and traditions very well. She attended Sequoyah High School, an all Indian boarding school that was run by the BIA back then, now it's operated by the Cherokee Nation. She has a bachelor's degree in Marketing from the University of Oklahoma and a Masters of Business Administration from the University of Oklahoma. S.P.I.R.I.T. was organized after we held an alternative event to counter the Oklahoma Centennial Celebrations in November 2007.

Mvto.

About
S.P.I.R.I.T.
(Society to Preserve the Indigenous Rights and Indigenous Traditions)

We the Members of S.P.I.R.I.T support native issues, families, personal education for ourselves and our youth, and basic human rights to exist as free people.

SPIRIT is a group of individuals dedicated to getting the true history of American Indians told. We organized for the purpose of making a difference in the state of Oklahoma. Brought together initially during the November 16th Survival Walk and Remembrance Day, SPIRIT is moving forward with addressing issues affecting all Indigenous Peoples of the Americas.

Our members span across many different states and continents, with all committed to making a positive change for Oklahoma Indians in our lifetime. We are ordinary individuals in a variety of occupations, diverse backgrounds, different levels of education, and all ages, all with the goal of righting centuries of wrongs.

SPIRIT is a strong upcoming voice for American Indians through providing leadership, support systems, and promoting inspiration to our native brothers and sisters in our struggle. We want to educate ourselves, our youth and others about the true history of Indigenous peoples. We seek to address gross misrepresentations and misconceptions of natives that are reinforced by public education, the mass media, in history books and in communities.

We want the history books to reflect a true and accurate portrayal of the indigenous people in the world and especially of Oklahoma Indians. We want Oklahoma public schools and communities to stop the annual re-enactments of the 1889 Land Run because it is humiliating and demeaning to Indians. Further, the perspective of the Oklahoma Indians is completely swept aside and ignored in all these celebrations; the true history needs to be told and revisions made in public policies.

SPIRIT calls for the abolishment of mascots that stereotype American Indians, continually reduce us to cartoon characters, dehumanize us, and make us nothing more than figureheads.

We want more funding for American Indian language immersion programs for K-12 and higher education. The colonizers took away our native languages now they owe us a responsibility for helping us get them back. We want sacred lands and lands claimed by American Indians to be returned to the rightful owners. SPIRIT calls for the protection of Mother Earth and the rights of American Indians to exercise their religious freedom without any persecution or interference.

SPIRIT held a parade in downtown Oklahoma City on April 12, 2008 for the purpose of enhancing Native Pride. There were over 250 participants that ended at the Land Run Memorial.

On April 19th, SPIRIT had a presence at the Norman, OK, 89er Day Parade that had the theme, "Another Hundred Years" for the purpose of educating the public and increase the sensitivity of participants to Oklahoma Indian's response.

The members of SPIRIT have been collecting signatures on a Resolution that asks for the State to ban land run re-enactments in public schools and teach the truth about Oklahoma history that incorporates American Indians' side of the story. A delegation of SPIRIT will deliver these signed Resolutions to the Governor, members of the State Legislator and the State Superintendent on April 22, the actual anniversary date of the first Land Run in Indian Territory.

Founding members include: Brenda Golden – Muscogee (Creek), Glenda Deer – Kickapoo/Shawnee, Rodney Factor – Seminole, David Hill – Choctaw, Kathryn Hatcher – Chickasaw, Gary Colbert - Chickasaw, Mark Francis – Muscogee (Creek), Sandy Williams – Seminole, Soulowla Williams – United Keetowah Band, Terrell Tanequodle – Kiowa/Muscogee (Creek), Beverly Isaac – Comanche (Numunuh)

SPIRIT is open to anyone that is serious about taking a stand for Indigenous Rights and Traditions. SPIRIT is the hope for indigenous people in Oklahoma and we have found a lot of support from Natives since November 2007. We are on the web at: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/okspirit and http://www.myspace.com/oklaspirit.

TIME LINE:

November 16, 2007 - Remembrance Walk and Ceremony at the State Capitol, Oklahoma City OK

January 26, 2008 - SPIRIT met for the first time in Shawnee, OK

February to April 2008 - SPIRIT held meetings at different locations each weekend in OK, including Tulsa, Seminole, Sasakwa, Norman, Anadarko, Shawnee and Oklahoma City so that as many Indians as possible could be heard.

April 12, 2008 - SPIRIT hosted the "Honoring our Past ~ Capturing our Future" parade in Bricktown, Downtown Oklahoma City

April 19, 2008 - SPIRIT protested the 89er Day Parade in Norman Oklahoma that had the theme, "The Next Hundred Years"

April 22, 2008 - SPIRIT will present the State of Oklahoma with a Resolution (attached) calling for the end of land run re-enactments in public schools and to teach the true history in schools.

We plan to nominate a Native American to the Oklahoma State Textbook Committee and continue working against American Indian mascots at public schools.

Mvto, Brenda
