The Real Tragedy

What strikes me a the real tragedy behind the

mention of the fact that every day thoussnds
of people around the world are sarving 0
Geath or dying from preventable discases
‘while for 15 years this woman was technically

and judges in this case by members of the
Chistian Right drove home the point that to
these fanafics, the rights of the unbom and the
undead take over th living. From
the musder of doctors and workers at abortion
inics to the ben on stem cell escarch, which
fas been proven to_save lives, to_ fool-
drmgging in dealing with the AIDS epidemic
or gemocide in Afrca, n very ua-pretty picture
s emerged on the Right and this so-called
“Culture of Life"

The same media pundits who are howling for
Prof. Ward Churchill's heod for suggesting
{hnt Sept. 1% might have been a reaction to
US. foreign policy, ‘and in pariculsr the

COLORADO AIM CONDEMNS RACIST
ATTACKS AGAINST CHURCHILL.

coNTACT:
. Tink Tiker (303) 229-7756 Elds Councl
reprosentate. Colorado AM 3038710463

The Elders Councl and the Leadership
Coundl of the American Indian Movement
(AIM) of Colorado confirm our support for
Ward Churchill as & momber of our chapter,
and as a member of the Leadership Counci
of Colorado AM. Colorado AIM further
condemns the transparent, racist _attacks
against Churchil by thoss who_seek to
slonce allemative voices. Whie Churchi's
particuar _statements aboul _events of
Saptomber 11, 2001 wore his personal views,
his broader criical analysis of U.S. domestic
‘and foreign policy s consistent with Colorado

AiMs perspeciive.

Colorado AIM is one o the largest and most
aciive AIM chaplers in the United States. Our
strongh, power and authority springe from
our spirtualty, flom the example of our
ancestors, and from the members of our
communty who embrace our principles.

We neither recognize, nor do we accept, the
ditates of any person or persons who
pretend 1o speak for us. Any person or entity
that purports 1o speak on behal of Colorado
AM other than our Elders Counci or the
Leadership Counci, is being dishonest. Each

AIM chapter is independent and autonomous,
‘and our authorty emerges fom the voice of
the people in our communiy, and we support
‘Ward Churchil

Ward Churchil has been an_important
member and leader of the American Indian
Movement (AIM) of Colorado since at least
1084, His analysis of U.S. law and policy has
been an essential 100l in educaling both
indigenous and non-indigenous people on the
history and the curent circumstances of
native peoples in the Americas. Ward has
baen tireless in his defense of indigenous
peoples’ aspirations for freedom and jusiice
around the world, and we appiaud him for his
umerous contibutions.

Colorado AIM is painfuy familar with racist
atacks against our movement, and against
ndivicuals n our movemont,of which s s
simpiy the most rocen. Wo do_not have 1o
agree with every stalement, or wih every
posion that members of our chaplr tak n
order to raly to thic support when they are
subject 10 an unprincipied, antindian nch
mabs.

Churchill is not under attack because of &
ouple of statements that he mads about the
events of September 11, 2001. He is under
attack because he has exposed the pain and
the suffering caused by U.S. domeslic and
foreign policy. He does 5o without apology.,
and from the perspactive of an indigenous
scholar. He is under attack by.racists who
would prefer to sience indigenous voices
altogether, and who would erase the history.
of indgenous paoples from the memory of
the Western Hemisphere.

‘Our view of Ward Churchilis not through the
ens of a few sentences taken out of context

for calculated purposes. Our view is of an
indigenous man who has devoted decades of

s ife to the defense of indigenous pooples’
selfdetermination and freedom.

e fact is not lost on us that the attacks on
Churchilbegan _immedately _after the
‘acquital of him and ofhers i the Columbus.

Long, long ago, when Kukna, the Mother
Earth, was young and the Native people were ol
one pecpl, there arose a great dispute among
them concerning a sacred medicine, the footh of
a certoin manster bear.

A Counci fire bumed for many doys and
many ights, but no agreement couk be reached
concerning this, and the peaple. found it
impassibe 1o settle their differences or fo come
1o compronise. After countless debates and
meetings, it was finally decided to separate into
independent groups. So it was, that many clars
and fanilies went thei separate weys. In e,
many new tribes came info being, speaking new

THE RED HEART WARRIOR

The Never Sworn to
Treaty

O the st of September, 1682, Penn set sail for America on the ship "Welcome” with 100 of his
‘comrades. One-tird of them perished from smal-pox, befors they landed at New Castle on the
Delaware, on the 27th of October. Ater a bref visit 1o New York, Penn ascended the Delaware,
landing i the Swadish setiement of Upland, which he renamed Chestr. On the 7th of December.
the assambly meeting at Choster passed the "Great Law of Pemnayivania,” which established the
“Holy Exporiment” of modeiing the colony along Quaker principies. In November of 1683, Penn and
the Lenape sachem, Tamanend (I, signed the "Great Treaty" under an el tree in the Lenape

vitage of Shackamaxon,

Perin was inspired by the extension of the "Quaker Peace Testimony’ by the Quaker goveror of
Rhode Island, Nicholas Easton, who, in 1673, had attempted 1o prevent King Phillys War by
Iniiating negotations between the coloniats. and Indiana. Tho Trosty of Shackamaxon was far
more successful. For more than a generation, the peaceful residents of Philadelphia, (the "City of
Brothery Love"), and thelr Lenape neighbors set an unprecedented exampie' of pesceful
comsistence betwaen indigenous people and colorial sattlers. the French philosopher, Voltaire, an
‘admirer of Penn, haled this as “the only treaty batween Indians and Christans that was never

‘swon to and never broken.”

Tha Treaty sstabiished that Penris§ivaria would be a safe haven not only for those Europeans
flesing religious persscuon in Europe and the other English coorles bt also for Indians.
Nanicokes and other Indians from tho South and Indians from New Jersey, New York and New
England migrated into the Qusker colony. The "Forks of the Delaware," (the Easton-Philipsburg
area), became home to many refuges Minsl Lenapes from northem NJ who became known as the
“Forks Indians.* Among them was @ lesssr chif, who had become Chiistianized, known as John

Harts, the father of Teadyuscung.
