WHAT THE WORLD MUST KNOW

THE PURPOSE OF THIS BLOG


To provide Native Americans a voice, an opportunity to inform the world about anything they find to be important, with the result being that this open dialog might result in a series of 6 Documentaries which I intend to Produce and Direct on the subjects of importance that you provide.



ABOUT THE AUTHOR:


As you can see, I am a white man. My family line is a mix of Irish and Italian. Please let it be known that my people were not on this land when any of the Treaties between the white man and any of the many Nations were signed, that we had no part in the mass Genocide or the taking of your lands.


Though I could not explain it, I have always had a heart for the Indigenous People, the God ordained residents of North America. Having moved from South Florida to East Texas in 1988, I found a friend in a gentleman who is a full-blood Kiowa, who over the course of numerous years enlightened me to many facts that are not known to most non-Native occupants of this Country we share.


On one occasion with my friend, I broke down and began to cry like a child. The facts of what has been done here are horrendous and unforgivable, and it is more than evident that it has never been made right. Through my tears I begged forgiveness of my friend on behalf of my race for the evil that has been done to him, his family, and his people; to your people. He assured me that it wasn’t mine to repent of. --- His nobility affects me to this day.



WHAT MUST WE KNOW ABOUT THE MODERN LIFE AND TIMES OF YOUR PEOPLE?
