We have done nothing wrong by telling the truth of the tribal corruption in Indian Country. How would the average American People feel if they disagreed with their governor, and resulted in the loss of their citizenship? This is done behind closed doors without due process, then threatened with arrest for entering state owned buildings and property , had your churches locked and any benefits taken away such as your social security. You then are under state police surveillance 24 hrs a day, denied using the courts for a pitition of redress of grievances. What is one to do? These atrocious acts are done under the umbrella of sovereignty all while the Feds and those involved in these gross violation of all human and civil rights turn a blind eye. Please continue with your activism, the more people know the harder it is to continue the abuse of the people. May peace and justice prevail.

They should put themselves in the place of the disenrolled and really think about what a disenrolled member goes through especially emotionally and mentally and to watch their leaders get away with more and more corruption, while the disenrolled have no due process. We are not bad people, we have done nothing wrong, we are just the disposable members that 4-6 committee members decide they do not want in the tribe because we ask legitimate questions. Tell the NCAI to name a tribe that has disenrolled that does not have a Casino. Only complete fools or blind people would think these leaders are good and honest.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
