Frauds / Re: Nazi Black Metal (NSBM) Bands/Performers Posing as Native
« Last post by milehighsalute on January 14, 2025, 05:53:07 pm »
nothing new.....i remember the videos of messikin skins in the 90s that had less emphasis on skinhead style/culture and punk rock, and more emphasis in neo-nazi dress and marching

i just still find it a bit amazing how over the years they went from skrewdriver to burzum....and went from fistfights to satanic caca

as far as white supremacists wannabe natives go, there was always an asa carter, a little shell pembina band or a david yeagley around to undermine native voices and inject their views the parade it around as ndn opinion as a whole....especially the eyeliner guy

i worked denver public schools for years and look at data every day......the whitest chicanos always identify as native and the darkest mexicans always list themselves as white......i dont understand it

as far as the chicanos go.....you know them.....they usually join la mecha and go super-chicano and some even attempt to learn the spanish they lost.....then something happens a few moths in and then they go super-aztec and mix it in with mexican nationalism

and when they get bored of that they claim they apache (usually) but dont really know for sure they are following family lore much like the pigmentally challenged do with cherokee/blackfeet/lenape or like the abundantly melanated do with the yamasssee and euchi

which really isnt a problem UNTIL they start peaking on behalf of the people they claim with no consulting or knowledge of those cultures or many times not even knowing a single person from those cultures

what i dont seem to see though is the white claiming, moreno, mestizo mexicans speak on behalf of white people.....but i want to! (for amusement purposes)......though i would rather not want to pollute my ears with homoerotic black metal to do so

He'll try, just like he did last time. Expect him also to dump waste, including nuclear, on rezzes. To try to strip mine any rez he can. To try to strip away the monuments and parks Biden protected like Bear Ears. To try and take or threaten other places with indigenous like Greenland, including Pacific islands. and cheer anti indigenous racists worldwide. There's no limit to what he'll try. Don't be surprised if he calls for reparations...for whites.

There's a long history of hating or denying your Native side or ancestry in Latino culture. Plenty of Latinos ID also ID as white because they are, by descent or just by not know who or what the f--- they really are.

i still always wonder......how much jail time would a native have done if placed in same predicament?

I bet they would get a life sentence. Depending on state - likely death penalty.

And their communities would be rousted and persecuted. Anyone who looked anything like them would be harassed. Possibly laws passed to take away religious freedoms.

she claims that the Maui fires are an "orchestrated deep state attack on humanity" and asserts that such attacks "happen with Satanic ritualized timing.

Quote
Every weather phenomenon is controlled."

Quote
choice phrases she uses to describe the Maui fires:

    "A planned atrocity"

    "Deep state attack"

    "Massacre"

    "Psychological war"

Quote
She also says that folks who discuss these Deep State tactics will be "silenced" because they "know what's really going on." She says, "We're all being oppressed, we're all being censored."

Predictably, she also calls the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic a "plandemic," and asserts that it, too, was a control mechanism of the Deep State. She calls the vaccines "bioweapons" and asserts that she and others were "persecuted" for not getting vaccinated.

Research Needed / Re: Edgar Villanueva - Decolonizing Wealth - Lumbee Tribe NC
« Last post by Advanced Smite on January 09, 2025, 06:20:47 pm »
I read Edgar Villanueva's book out of morbid curiosity and the naming story is bizarre. The quoted text below are excerpts from Decolonizing Wealth, Indigenous Wisdom to Heal Divides and Restore Balance.

Quote
Around the time I left KBR, I got my Indian name. I wish I could tell you a romantic story about a vision quest where I became a man after spending a month building my own shelter sleeping under the stars, foraging and nearly starving, and having hallucinogenic experiences that revealed the true nature of things. But that's not how it happened.

No, it was a beige conference room in the Marriott in Denver. I had found a job, finally, in the direct aftermath of KBR, and was running the North Carolina American Indian Health Board, an organization that represented the six tribes around the state, working toward improved health in our communities, and the National Indian Health Board conference was taking place in Denver. At the conference was a sign-up sheet to meet with an Ojibwe medicine man.

Obviously, I signed up.

There was a line of people waiting their turn to go into the room and have a session with him and I was nervous. In my church, growing up, this kind of thing - shamans and the like - would have been condemned as heresy.

"What's going to happen in there?" I asked the woman waiting in line in front of me. I felt like I was on my way to see the Great and Powerful Oz.

Then Villanueva talks about the woman in front of him giving him a piece of her tobacco to present to the alleged medicine man. He discusses what the alleged medicine man is wearing and how they each sat in conference room chairs.

Quote
He asked me why I'd come. The truth was someone had suggested that if I were lucky, he might give me an Indian name, even though it's pretty unusual for someone from another tribe to give you a name. There are different traditions around naming. My tribe does not have a naming ceremony. You are just who you are, whatever your mama names you. I felt I'd be more legit with a real Indian name, but of course I wasn't going to express that to the medicine man.

Then Edgar Villanueva talks about the alleged medicine man saying he sees colors coming from Villanueva and "ancestors and spirits flying around the room."

Quote
And then he said it: "I want to give you an Indian name."

My moment had arrived. My prayers had been granted.

Niigaanii Beneshi.

It's in Ojibwe, from northern Minnesota.

"It means 'Leading Bird,'" he added, sparing me from having to find someone who speaks Ojibwe to translate it for me. "When birds are flying in the V formation, there's a bird that's leading the formation. That's you."

I thanked him and floated out of the room, feeling all spiritual and mysterious after the experience. Niigaanii Beneshi. Leading Bird.

There are a significant amount of problems with this story. Villanueva even acknowledges that "it's pretty unusual for someone from another tribe to give you a name." Yes, Edgar...it is unusual.
