I encourage Running Down the Walls , September 12th, nationwide.

The crimes against native people have gone 100% unpunished for over 500 years– since 1492. Yet we who fight by any means for justice have been shot, dog mauled, beat, gassed, tortured, held in solitary for years. We have had our mail stolen 1000s and 1000s of times. We have been held in these cement coffins separate from our children, wives, native nations, husbands, partners, and elders. We can only rise in higher thought or higher education, or we can fall into a deep and dark self-pity.

A long time ago there were two young Native Tsa la gi lovers. They were both 16 Summer Season of age. White bear was strong and fearless by nature. He was very special among his clan - - the longhair - - due to his name and his creative skills, as well as his looks. The way he looked upon the earth, “Elohi”. White Bear was very handsome. White Bear loved the most beautiful young woman of the Wolf Clan, Shining Flower. All the clans of the real people, the tsa la gi, had never seen such gracefulness, love and intelligent spirit come to life on Earth, as Shining flower - - Utsilvsgi-Utsisdalugisgi. She was a real benefit to her clan and all real people who knew her. She was not only helpful, kind and joyful, but also full of all kinds of expression and true compassion.
