Indigenous ambassadors of the nuclear system fail to walk it back to Creation Without any doubt the nuclear industry is blasphemy to the Sacred Pipe Without any doubt the nuclear industry is blasphemy to the Four Sacred Elements: Water, Rock, Wind, Fire Without any doubt the nuclear industry is blasphemy to the Four Orders of Creation: the Four Sacred Elements, the Plant and Tree Nations, the Animal Nations, Human beings It is within our human metaphysical belief systems where our very beliefs of morality are embodied Once embodied through teachings, ritual, and ceremony the purpose of the metaphysical moral system remains intact and anchored in its place where subsequently when humans create new inventions they then walk them back to the knowledge inherent Without any doubt the nuclear industry is blasphemy to all the Anishinaabeg: stand for sing for dance for pray for Don’t be a failed human being Walk it back to Creation and reason (mind) Walk it back to Creation and feel (heart) Debwewin AuthorLynn is an author, advocate, artist, and public speaker. Her work encompasses both anti-colonial work and the celebration of Indigenous knowledge. She challenges Canada’s practices, policies, and laws of colonial genocide such as the land claims and self-government process, sex-discrimination in the Indian Act, the continued destruction of Akikpautik / Chaudière Falls–an Anishinaabeg sacred place, and Canada’s lack of policy addressing Indigenous women and girls with disabilities who are bigger targets of sexual violence.

10/4/2016 0 Comments Clearing the Smoke on the WaterThere are at least five layers of water pollution: 1 Debris such as plastic, glass, tires, planes, cars ... 2 Toxic metals such as mercury, lead ... 3 Toxic organic such as dioxins, pesticides, herbicides ... 4 Sewage and biological waste. 5 Radioactive particles. People should never be satisfied with the corporate deception of development through "greening up" a space such as removing old buildings, adding sod, and planting trees. The eye must not be allowed to appropriate reality. Like reality, most of the pollution is invisible to the eye. Ask a blind person. They know. Lynn Gehl, Ph.D. is an Algonquin Anishinaabe-kwe from the Ottawa River Valley. She has a section 15 Charter challenge regarding the continued sex discrimination in The Indian Act, and is an outspoken critic of the land claims process. Her book The Truth that Wampum Tells: My Debwewin of the Algonquin Land Claims Process offers an insider-Indigenous analysis of the Algonquin land claims process in Ontario.
