Confront Invasion: Protest 2010 Olympic Torch Relay

106 Days of Action!

"We have this in common. We have a common oppressor, a common exploiter and
a common discriminator. But once we realize that we have a common enemy,
then we can unite--on the basis of what we have in common... "- Malcolm X,
1954

Indigenous Sisters band Brothers of the North, what the invaders call
KKKanada, for the next 106 days the Olympic Torch will run our Great Lands.
The Olympic torch, a flamed staff that represents white supremacy, is
running through Indigenous Nations and Territories, symbolizing their theft
and dominance of our Lands and Ways.   For 106 days every Indigenous Nation
in these Lands has the opportunity to talk to the world about your issues
and show Unity between all Nations here who have a common oppressor,  and
common Invader, KKKlanada (“Canada”).  Let us Unite voices and show the
World we are a Proud and Independent People who will never Surrender our
Lands.

Not only is the Torch running our Lands, they are also going to get Native
people to participate in their evil ceremonies, KKKanada wants the world to
think Native people are compliant and even eager to be assimilated into the
white way of life.

We call on all Native Nations of the North to show the World we are Strong
and Dignified People, the Survivors of a 500-year old Holocaust that has
taken 250 million Indigenous lives, whose Lands are illegally occupied and
destroyed, who are a People who will never accept defeat.

Ever since their Invasion we have resisted, as this is written Indigenous
People are Blockading roads to prevent destruction, Original People are
still living on the Land not dependent on the Invading governments for
survival, only needing clean Land, Air and Water for Sustenance.  The goal
of the Invaders is to make us fully dependent on them to survive, giving us
no choice but to live white, when we refuse we are arrested  or murdered.

This is a unification call to the Proud and Strong Nations of the North, the
Songhees, Kwakwaka'wakw, Nuu-chah-nulth, Halkomelem, Cowichen, Tuchone
Tlinget, Inuit, Innu, Mohawk, Six Nation Conferderacy, Annishinabe, Cree,
Algonquin, MikM’aq, Maliseet, Wabanaki, Siskita, Dakota, Nakota, Stoney,
Dene, Gwich’in, Tahltan, Gitsan, Wetsuitan, Haisla, Nisga, Sekani, Dakelh,
Tsimshian, Nuxalk, Heiltsuk,Tsilcotin, Secwepemc, Nlaka’pamux, Okanagan,
Ktnuxa, St’at’imc, Stolo and all unmentioned Nations .

When the Torch passes through your Lands and communities, this is your
opportunity to let the world know what is happening in your Land, tell them
the true story and the real relationship between the Invaders known as
KKKanada and your Indigenous Nation. Let the world know the Land and Water
can never be sold, Natural Law is more powerful than man-made law, they fear
our Unity. Plan some form of action when the torch passes your area, stop it
or chase them to the edge of your Lands and let the next Nation pick up
where you left off. No evil Invader Torch on Native Land!

highway, Secwepemc Territory.)

nice post dude... great fun to see such amazing content. Currently I am very busy with my job of 640-802 and 350-001 and recently I have completed my network+ exam and now after a long time hardly I have found time to wander here n there...

Problem with activation

Hi there, I dont know if I am writing in a proper board but I have got a problem with activation, link i receive in email is not working... http://vancouver.mediacoop.ca/?e354ca20fa3edc596fabd8a9e19,

Look at the effects of "The Spirit Sings" Boycott

Backgrounder:

In 1988, the Lubicon Lake Cree organized a boycott of The Spirit Sings, the cultural showcase of the Winter Olympics in Calgary. Museums were asked not to lend objects for the display, and many people, Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal, refused to attend. The boycott did a great deal to raiseawareness of the issues, and as a result of the conflict, the Assembly of First Nations (AFN) and the Canadian Museums Association (CMA) formed a task force with a mandate to “develop an ethical framework and strategies for Aboriginal Nations to represent their history and culture in concert with cultural institutions”.

As AFN staff, I worked this conference, it was held at Carleton University in Ottawa. It was also cited in the RCAP reports & my friend Greg Young Ing was given the task & has followed through.

RCAP/CHAPTER 6:

1.2 Sacred and Secular Artifacts
Aboriginal people are seeking the return of artifacts held by museums and collectors as one way of reasserting control over how their cultures are depicted. These objects are the physical records of history and the physical manifestations of culture. They help define Aboriginal identity:
Traditionally, Aboriginal cultural knowledge is transmitted and documented primarily through the oral tradition, but also through such things as dramatic productions, dance performances, and they are documented on such artifacts as wampum belts, birch bark scrolls, totem poles, petroglyphs and masks. This is the Aboriginal way of transmitting knowledge and of recording information and history.

Greg Young-Ing
Vancouver, British Columbia, 4 June 1993

Items taken from Aboriginal people and communities over the years may be secular or sacred. Secular objects might include tools, hunting equipment and clothing — articles of everyday use. Some objects have sacred significance, such as medicine bundles, which contain objects associated with visions and are opened only on ceremonial occasions.

RCAP report/ Vol.3 /Chapter 6 /Appendix 6A: Excerpts from Turning the Page:Forging New Partnerships Between Museums and
First Peoples*

This report considers the disposition of Aboriginal cultural patrimony,
including human remains, burial objects, sacred and ceremonial objects
and other cultural objects that have ongoing historical, traditional or cultural import to an Aboriginal community or culture. The Canadian Museums Association and the Assembly of First Nations should endorse and encourage the adoption of the following guidelines relating to the
repatriation of Aboriginal cultural patrimony:

a. Human Remains

b. Objects of Cultural Patrimony

The treatment, use, presentation and disposition of sacred and ceremonial objects and any other objects of cultural patrimony should be decided on moral and ethical grounds with the full involvement of the appropriate First Nations as equal partners. In the event of disputes between individuals, between an individual and the community or between communities, the onus should be on the First Peoples to resolve the dispute according to customary practice.

Recommended options for this process include the following:
(i) Restitution or Reversion.
(ii) Transfer of Title.
(iii) Loan of Materials
(iv) Replication of Materials
(iv) Replication of Materials

c. Repatriation of Foreign Holdings
The CMA and the AFN are urged to promote repatriation of human remains and objects of cultural patrimony held outside the country, subject to the same criteria outlined above under 1 & 2, through lobbying efforts in association with national governments, UNESCO, the International Council of Museums and other professional organizations.

AFN & CMA,1992)

International Protection of traditional knowledge & culture

The Intellectual Property Issues in Cultural Heritage (IPinCH) project is an international research initiative to explore and facilitate fair and equitable exchanges of knowledge relating to archaeology. The project is directed by Dr. George P. Nicholas (Simon Fraser University), co-developed with Julie Hollowell (Indiana University) and Kelly Bannister (University of Victoria) and is funded by Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada's (SSHRC) major collaborative research initiatives (MCRI) program. A team of 50 scholars [1] and 25 partnering organizations [2] is concerned with the theoretical, ethical, and practical implications of commodification, appropriation, and other flows of knowledge about the past, and with how these may affect communities, researchers, and other stakeholders.
