Re: CS> Native American stories--OT
Zoe, Thank you for posting the group! I am sorry to say I am not a sensitive person, tuned into things around me. I wish I were. I can certainly agree with Lois in what was done to the people native to this country. There *should* have been white bodies hanging from trees all across this country for what the white man did, IMO. No other minority had annihilation attempted on them in this country that I ever heard of. OK, I'll get off my soapbox, not that I want to... Thanks again. I joined and look foreward to the stories!

Re: CS> Native American stories--OT
My Great-Grandmother was full blood Apache but she died before I had the opportunity to meet her. My Mother used to tell us stories about Geronimo and the Superstition Mountains in Arizona, my mother's birth place. She took us to see the bluff [Medicine Bluff] where he and his horse jumped from into the Medicine River to get away from the US Calvary...he lived and did get away. My Mother was a half-breed and as a child when walking in Phoenix the white men would spit on her and her family and then they [the white people] would cross to the other side of the street so as to not be soiled by their presence. I lived with prejudice from within my own father's family [his mother did not want anything to do with us Native American brown skinned children]...even from my own father. Now that my Mother has passed on my father claims we are not Apache but he lies...my Mother was very proud of her heritage and wanted her children to be proud of it too and we are.

Re: CS> Native American stories--OT
Sandy, Glad you shared your story! It is sad the way people have been so cruel to others. I know being from Cherokee my Grandfather use to deal with alot of discrimination. He had a farm and one time a man came looking to buy a horse from my Grandfather but the man ended up not buying it saying he would never trust an Indian and would not pay him a dime for his horse. I raised my children to be respectful to everyone and not to be prejudice. I also have a handicapped daughter and young children would come up to her wheelchair and ask why she can't walk and their parents would pull them away. I would always try to answer them to let them know. I feel sorry for these kids that are taught prejudice by their ignorant parents, children are not born that way.

Excellent point Donna, Prejudice is taught ! No one is born with it. It has to be learned and as such it can be unlearned just as well.I see it even in my own family and it makes me very sad indeed. zoe Donna wrote: Sandy, Glad you shared your story!

Re: CS> Native American stories--OT
Yes, Zoe...I know. I've tried to learn from the things that have come my way whether good or bad. If we learn to be better from the negative things then they in one respect are a positive learning experience. My father's negativity has taught me how to be a better parent...I will always be there for my children and they know that. I knew you all would understand what I was saying because we experience similar things. I guess the point I was making is...whether it happened hundreds of years ago it is still happening today and unless you are aware of how the NAs were treated most people would have no idea. Prejudice is terrible and I have hopes that one day it will be done away with but it will only happen through teaching the future generations not to practice it.

Re: CS> Native American stories--OT
Hi Donna... It is sad the way some people treat others but if we learn from it [in a good way] then we will teach our children not to be prejudice. The man who refused to buy a horse from your Grandfather shows how little he knew because it is a well known fact the Cherokee have a wonderful way with horses. I have found that many people do not know how to act around handicapped people...I feel for your daughter. I had a stroke 6 years ago and do not walk very fast and I have had people honk at me to hurry up and get across the the street...they are in such a hurry they could care less that I might have a problem walking. The funny thing is when someone tries to rush me I get excited and go twice as slow...lol.

Re: CS> Native American stories--OT
Apparently I have lived a much-too-sheltered life. I was not aware that there was such prejudice against NAs. I'm sorry. I look at things a bit backward from the rest of the world anyway. I remember as a child my mother was explaining to me how the Jews were hated and what Hitler had done. My question was why did people hate the Jews when it should be the Germans that were hated? Of course, no one nationality should be *hated* for anything. That would be like "throwing the baby out with the bath water." It can be hard, however...especially when it seems a whole country backs the craziness. I wonder how many times NAs have saved our white butts...

RE: CS> Native American stories--OT
Greetings all, my heritage includes Blackfoot Native Americans from a reservation at one point in South Carolina, Barbados descendants after slavery (Maternal side) and Colombian Natives, Panamanian Natives and Jamaican descendants from South America (Paternal side), I pass for a small deep brown skin African American male. I was just in Chattanooga Tennessee and the hate I felt from Caucasian men young, middle age and elderly was beyond belief in 2009. You could just feel hate in their stares and blocking our car from the gas pump. A young Caucasian male would not allow my friend, who is half Caucasian and African American, he could pass for a 6'2 moroccon Arab. We needed to fuel the car to head back to Washington DC, after visiting his Caucasian mother who works in the Alexian retirement Center in the mountains of Chattanooga, such a beautiful place with hatefulness all around, did I miss something or should this still be expected? Pardon my description just painting a mental picture for you all, I wish CS mixed with DMSO could harmonize this issue with some of the American family A.

Re: CS> Native American stories--OT
Very well stated. Yes it is still happening today and in some ways its even worse than it was hundreds of years ago. But we have survived !!! Even tho not many pure bloods left, and most of us now of mixed ancestry, what little blood is left is very strong. The ancestors are speaking thru us and I find it all just amazing.

Re: CS> Native American stories--OT
Predjudice is born out of ignorance.Human beings tend to fear what they don't understand. Education is the key to understanding, but its a long slow arduous process. We make inroads in one area only to get slapped in the face in another. And Yes, NAs as you put it have saved our butts many many times. The Navajo code talkers for instance was the only code the Japanese couldn't break during WWII but look how they were treated until just recently. My ancestry lies on both sides of the fence so to speak as well as a few other fences so you will often see me referring to another side as mine. I travel all those roads with equal balance and I think it contributes to my understanding of the nature of things. zoe AHorse52251 wrote: Apparently I have lived a much-too-sheltered life.

Re: CS> Native American stories--OT
My NA ancestors chose to not go to a res- they feared extermination once all were corralled, which is what happened over and over, but happily not in all places. They moved West, which they said had much less hatred for blood and much more respect for the individual and his accomplishments; they intermarried, and by the time my grandmother was growing up, she was told she was part Cherokee, but to keep it a secret or it would be very bad. She had that lovely olive skin, which I have also been blessed with. As she taught languages, esp Spanish, she could pass for European. I also have some Cheyenne and some Canawaka. My ancestors found love to be the most important thing, so did not pay much attention to the issues of heritage. Sometimes I feel the loss of that heritage. I saw on PBS a man who paid money to have his blood analyzed by a genetic company, and it was found he was mainly NA. This was something he never knew, he looked Irish, and his family said he was Irish, none of the current generation knew anything about it. He started attending the powwows, and enjoying his newly found connection. I think if we looked into it in that kind of detail, we would see that most of us came from somewhere else at one time, it is only human nature to move around, fall in love, and put in new roots in a new place. If one's family has been on this continent long enough, it is probable that one has some NA ancestry. After all, in the 1600's, there were not many Europeans to marry, and with a growing population it is only natural to intermarry. In my family, we have ancestors that have fought in every war and on every side- so who is to judge who is right or wrong? It is important to honor everyone. One thing is we are taught to stand up for what we believe in, after thinking about if it is true, is it necessary, is it kind? In a hundred years, what will happen if we follow this course of action- will it be good or bad? Many things will not matter at all, so best not to put too much attention there. What is funny to me, is that living in Mn, everyone thinks I am from some foreign country, but my husband who has much more NA blood than I do, looks totally white.

Re: CS> Native American stories--OT
Fantastic Story Kathryn and not unlike my own. My favorite quip is that some of my ancestors came here on a boat and the rest were on the shore to greet them. :) Yes my French ancestors arrived here in 1685- French Hugonauts(sp) fleeing from certain execution. But after 3 generations they were no longer French, only the name survived. And there is more. Anyone with French and Indian ancestry is also most likely black as they were close allies. Almost no one in my family wants to own up to this even tho the geneology report verifies.I have a picture of one of my great grandfathers and aside from being very Indian his skin was unusually dark and his features reminiscent of West Indian. Those few of us who did embrace this part of our heritage were quickly ostracized by the rest of our family, so you see prejudice is not just "out there" we have it right within our family. None of us ever lived on a reservation nor do we wish to. We "passed" and got away with it. ( OOOPS I take that back. My grandpas oldest brother did go to a Reservation and lived out his days there thats a story for another time) Interestingly on the 1880 Census every member of that family was listed as "mulatto". By 1920 they had all moved to an adjoining county and these same people are now listed as "white" and have been ever since. When having to fill out the question of nationality I no longer claim either white or native american but always check "other" and let them guess. LOL Tis the Indian side tho that tugs at my heartstrings and I live as close to the earth as is humanly possible in this day and age. At 65 I found myself a "mountain man" and left my home to move to his mountain and live off the land, etc. Quite a change and except for the isolation I love it. zoe Clayton Family wrote: My NA ancestors chose to not go to a res- they feared extermination once all were corralled, which is what happened over and over, but happily not in all places.

Re: CS> Native American stories--OT
I am so sorry you had to experience this. In my observations across the country anywhere you go in Tennessee seems to be this way. Please don't judge the rest of our beautiful country by this yardstick.My apologies to any Tennesseeans here who do not fit this pattern, this was my observation based on a cross country bus tour a couple years ago.I simply could not believe how different things are in that state. There will always be individuals who harbor resentment and animosity, but mostly they will keep it to themselves these days. We can perhaps have some control over how people act in public, but we cannot govern what they think.It would be wonderful if there were some magic pill or elixir that would make this all go away. I have at one time or another lived in just about every area in this land except for the great Northwest. In most of these areas great progress has been made not only towards blacks and indians but other minorities as well. Even so , one will always encounter certain individuals who carry on the old hateful ways. Perhaps in another 500 yrs or so. Its really seems kind of ridiculous these days when most of us are a conglomeration of many many cultures. It is time to show not tolerance, but acceptance and understanding. My 2 cents worth. zoe Evans, Antonio F. wrote: Greetings all, my heritage includes Blackfoot Native Americans from a reservation at one point in South Carolina, Barbados descendants after slavery (Maternal side) and Colombian Natives, Panamanian Natives and Jamaican descendants from South America (Paternal side), I pass for a small deep brown skin African American male.

In my experience,prejudices have a reason,, and if your definition of 'diversity means all thinking the same,where is the place for prejudice peoples.. just give them a pill??? Maybe they wish for a pill that would the 'others' go away'... oh well "I think that the lofty idea of 'the war on racism' is gradually turning into a hideously false ideology. . And this anti-racism will be for the twenty-first century what communism was for the twentieth century: a source of violence." Mike I couldn't help my self,,, Mayer coppa,,or something.. .

My GGGrandmothers uncle was killed by a Cherokee death squad when they just arrived in Oklahoma. She said that was why our family did not register as NA. "The Chief killed my uncle." Looking back I believe the chief was also a cousin. I know his son is a cousin. So your own people and family can also be pretty mean. Brickey

Re: CS> Native American stories--OT
It all boils down to lack of LOVE. If only from childhood we are all taught to love everyone dearly, and to overcome hurt, anger and disappointments with love, i think the world would not be as it is. And also if from childhood we were taught not to nurse our PRIDE too much, then we would not be where we are now. PRIDE is the source of all evil while LOVE is the source of all goodness. But, this is difficult and needs much training and self discipline.

It is insecurity at its best because we know some proud, selfish, greedy people are out to get the defenseless. But have no fear, we have a GOD who is watching over us if only we turn and pray to not ignore HIM.

I have at one time or another lived in just about every area in this land except for the great Northwest. In most of these areas great progress has been made not only towards blacks and indians but other minorities as well. Even so , one will always encounter certain individuals who carry on the old hateful ways. Perhaps in another 500 yrs or so.

It is insecurity at its best because we know some proud, selfish,
greedy people are out to get the defenseless. But have no fear, we have a GOD
who is watching over us if only we turn and pray to not ignore HIM. Schools
were made to take away religion so our kids' consciences would be numb and
when recruited by those in power will not have a conscience to bother them when
orders are delivered. See? They execute without blinking an eyelash!

I agree.
It also boils down to fear. There is so much fearmongering going
around, it is no wonder people are becoming more afraid of anyone who is not
"like us".

This thread should probably come to an end but I wanted to add a little something to it before we incur the wrath of "he who must be obeyed"... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/You've_Got_to_Be_Carefully_Taught You've Got to Be Carefully Taught From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia "You've Got to Be Carefully Taught" (sometimes "You've Got to Be Taught" or "Carefully Taught") is a show tune from the 1949 Rodgers and Hammerstein musical South Pacific. South Pacific received scrutiny for its commentary regarding relationships between different races and ethnic groups. In particular, "You've Got to Be Carefully Taught" was subject to widespread criticism, judged by some to be too controversial or downright inappropriate for the musical stage. Sung by the character Lieutenant Cable, the song is preceded by a lyric saying racism is "not born in you! It happens after you're born..." Rodgers and Hammerstein risked the entire South Pacific venture in light of legislative challenges to its decency or supposed Communist agenda. While on a tour of the Southern United States, lawmakers in Georgia introduced a bill outlawing entertainment containing "an underlying philosophy inspired by Moscow". One legislator said that "a song justifying interracial marriage was implicitly a threat to the American way of life." Rodgers and Hammerstein defended their work strongly. James Michener, upon whose stories South Pacific was based, recalled, "The authors replied stubbornly that this number represented why they had wanted to do this play, and that even if it meant the failure of the production, it was going to stay in. You've Got To Be Carefully Taught You've got to be taught To hate and fear, You've got to be taught From year to year, It's got to be drummed In your dear little ear You've got to be carefully taught. You've got to be taught to be afraid Of people whose eyes are oddly made, And people whose skin is a diff'rent shade, You've got to be carefully taught.

Dear Cindi: I am 72yoa. When I was in school most of the boys, and some of the girls, carried pocket knives. We whittled sticks, cut string, etc. and sometimes cut ourselves and the teacher might give us a band-aid. The serious offenses were running in the halls, chewing gum / talking in class and paper wads. NOW it's murder, stabbings, drugs, rape and assault and battery. But then, that is after they ask God to leave. This nation was founded on Judeo/Christian principles The Pledge of allegence contains "one nation under God" Even our money states "In God we trust" No one is required to be Christian or Jewish or to participate activity or observance of those groups. At least 80% of our citizens profess to be either Christian or Jewish, so we have at least as much right to express our opinions and be heard as the very vocal 20%.

Re: CS> Native American stories--OT
4 out of 5 times I've been "ripped off" in my life. it's been by *professing* Christians, the Godless horde has been more honest, though not perfect either. I had that childhood too.

This is nothing to do with the belief or disbelief in God. It is because children are no longer taught from the cradle up, to respect other people and other people's property.

Re: CS> Native American stories--OT
The rules are on the list home page, when it is up that is. It's also fairly common netiquette to avoid controversial issues when it does not pertain to the list topic particularly when there is an OT list. I don't think your original posts about stories were a problem Zoe, it was when it drifted. Also anytime a topic goes on for more than a few posts and is not related to Silver or health it is polite to take it to the OT list. Since many are not on the OT list thought there is the tenancy to continue the conversation where it started. I am not a list cop here and don't want to be so I have not said anything until now. I run my own list and try to be flexible, as long as it is health related. But everyone knows that religious issues are a slippery slope and should show respect by just not going there. Obviously Mike, the list owner is not around or he would have jumped in here by now.

Politics is forbidden unless it relates directly to CS or important alternative health issues, as mentioned above. Do not discuss political parties, elections, politicians, policy, or philosophy. Do not raise divisive issues -- you know which ones! Do not reply to political comments made by others... Nope, not even to be "fair!" Avoid discussing religion, mysticism, or spirituality. There is no comment you can make that will not risk offending someone. Overt evangelization is not permitted. Do not reply to religious remarks made by others. I am not asking you to "de-God" everything you say, do or think, however. Brief greetings, thanks, and prayer requests or offerings are acceptable. The occasional "God bless", or "you're in our prayers" will not be seen as a transgression. Modest tag lines or signature files may also be used. I say again: Criticism of other list members' behavior or how the list is being run must be directed to the list owner, privately and not on the list. No List Cops! Off Topic Posts Posts that are clearly Off Topic are generally discouraged. Do not start an obviously off topic thread. Do not reply to off topic posts made by others. If a thread morphs off-topic, end it or take it off list! There should not be lengthy threads on obviously off-topic subjects. I've provided the Off Topic List for such subjects. This does not apply to threads that result from someone's health related questions as described in the Permitted Topics section above, which may continue until basic information is given and important resources identified.

Re: CS> Native American stories--OT
"Gangsta" cultural influence came about with integration. Working mothers, semi orphaned kids seek new families. "Gangstas" have nothing better to do than be that new family. "Gangsta" is a culture of blame and victim-hood used to justify lashing out and manipulating others vs "accomplishment" "Political Correctness" prohibits reasonable discussions. ode At 10:31 PM 10/5/2009 -0400, you wrote: I totally agree!
