While looking to the sky, I feel out for the energy of the precious, lost by injustice.
Tyranny
Terror
Genocide
Stripped
Abused
Molested
Not One should be abducted
Karma to the hand that destructed…
How do you Trust
The dynasty was all built on lust.
The disgust.
Raise your voice for the voiceless…
There is some history from not that long ago…
I hang my head in sorrow…
The trends of tomorrow,
Still have far, far to go.
The indigenous communities of Canada have been and still are fighting injustice…
WHY
When it is so obvious,
That THEY can TEACH us…
Responsibility taken, will grow our nation.
Nothing can undo the philanthropic colonial stew.
That took a generation of who,
Would have helped the light Shine through.
Still they do, never forget the COUP.
So please take a minute to let that brew.
Lower your head to remember the dead.
Then look within you,
To be the difference to pursue….
This written word only touches on a fraction of the injustice that the indigenous of Canada have and still are enduring.
Awareness is the beginning.
Our history is censored.
These truths should be learned from.
NOT concealed…
Responsibility is the path to healing. All schools should have these learnings written in their curriculum… The only way that the ugly truths of the past can be learned from is by sharing the paths walked by our ancestors…
The children are our future, we must give them the respect they deserve by providing truths. We need to stop simplifying or trying to protect children from history. We should be guiding them through it…
It is our job as adults to help support the children through life.
Not , sensor to protect… It doesn’t work anyway, because at some point, that censored material will be uncovered.
Guided learning, guided discussions in safe atmospheres, where there are no wrong questions.
A place to help unify understanding perspective.
To understand that no matter what differences we see, we all have value. That our differences provide us an opportunity to learn MORE. If the English language so easily pulls words from other languages to adapt to be better,
WHY are we not following suit with culture?
From the above to the below It’s all a show of how our government does not know how to grow.
A fault of not being taught.
Where privilege blinds from concealing lines.
An ostrich, or a rug neither way can convey what all of the children of Canada need to play.
The roles that are coming their way…
So I say today, RESPECT the children for what they’re going to be.
They will be taking the positions of you and me…
By providing them with as many truths to help them see.
The perspectives of many to guide us away from the dismay.
Into a unified prosperous New Way.
I could go on all day…
But for now this is what I have to say…
…
