What in the hell do call what Tribal Lea...@ 3:14 PM<br />What in the hell do call what Tribal Leaders are doing Tribal Members by disenrolling them because of greed and corruption.<br />Taking everything possible from them, there homes, there income, there health care and most importantly there right to belong.<br />If this is not considered a form of violence <br />then what is this fight all about.<br />And who' side are you really on.<br />Kicking elders out of there homes, man handling kid at the Tribal Schools and telling them that they don't belong and can not attend the Tribal School any longer.<br />That is also a form of violence.<br />Telling the Elderly that they can not drink from the fountains at the parks is also a form of violence, keeping you from visiting your your family members living on the reservation and not letting you be buried in the Tribal Cemetery along side of your parents and other family members is also a form of violence.<br />I happen to love my Tribal background however i also love my family and when they are targets of abuse by anyone i will defend them in any manner i can especially against corrupt leaders who don't even have the right to enrolled in the Tribe in the first place.<br />Respectfully Postednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887382220113280558.post-91162475871809542142019-03-21T10:51:08.319-04:002019-03-21T10:51:08.319-04:00I think its both hypocritical and hurtful to call ...I think its both hypocritical and hurtful to call out those that help Natives, behind the mask of anonymity. <br />What have YOU done, more than those that put their names out there, work to better our community?<br />.<br />I have stood with Laura, did I stand with you who defame and complain?OPechangahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10687743661360604165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887382220113280558.post-59497314247565386632019-03-21T03:46:58.542-04:002019-03-21T03:46:58.542-04:00my heart is hurt from this commentary...truly, vio...my heart is hurt from this commentary...truly, violence is not the answer in regard to all our common quest to #StopDisenrollment...and, for the record, laura wass has done more to work to bring justice to those disenrolled in indian country over the last two decades than anyone i know...she deserves nothing but respect and honor for her dedication to helping people throughout indian country, and she has that from anyone who truly knows her...good day and good medicine...cathy l cory, chukchansi, disenrolled from picayune rancheria of the chukchansi indians in october 2006<br />for all nationsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887382220113280558.post-67954836756226860972019-03-20T22:40:38.806-04:002019-03-20T22:40:38.806-04:00I think it's a bit hypocritical to say you don...I think it's a bit hypocritical to say you don't/never advocate violence when you're associating yourself with AIM.There is a lot of historical violent blunders attached to the group as a whole. <br /><br />From our knowledge, Laura Wass is not native.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887382220113280558.post-48445450206581994922019-03-20T22:22:01.953-04:002019-03-20T22:22:01.953-04:00I'm not condoning the act of violence, but if ...I'm not condoning the act of violence, but if we cannot be compassionate to those who have actually experienced the injustices of Disenrollment or any tribal corruption, acts that leave the victims with nowhere to go, get no justice, harming our most loved ones, etc, then what is the point to creating a safe space for us to express our hurt and pain? Why are we going to allow anyone to silence us even more? <br /><br /> From my personal experience of being disenrolled, I've never had the support or compassion from any member of AIM. Even when I reached out to a few in the area, they seemed they couldn't get involved in Indian vs Indian crimes and chose to ignore us. But as soon as the next media sensation happened, they were all over it. <br /><br />As a disenrollee, I choose to stand in solidarity with the victims of these injustices and I choose to not silence them, but to show them love and compassion in their, our, darkened lenses.<br /><br />Choose otherwise, but to silence and censor them is another great injustice.<br /><br />❤️,<br />You know who.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887382220113280558.post-51251228369829235352019-03-18T18:30:48.349-04:002019-03-18T18:30:48.349-04:00It's hard to take commenters like the first on...It's hard to take commenters like the first one seriously.

I’ve been disenrolled for over 15 years now but I managed to carry on with life as life doesn’t stop. Most don’t become Truly successful as a tribal member. Money made many in my tribe and family lazy. Lots of family members seem to still be where they were when they were disenrolled, nowhere. They plead and pray for things to go back how they were while they don’t continue to pursue normal work or school all the while they’ve become more unstable and poor. We only have one life, don’t let this corruption allow your life to pass bye. Go live your life.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
