On the Brink of destruction: Losing heritage, culture, storytellers, fighting racism
Submitted by Greg Peterson on Sun, 2008-03-02 18:25.Racism, spiritual terrorism and the loss of Indigenous culture are among numerous social issues being targeted by the Turtle Island Project - founded in northern Michigan in August 2007.
A pair of Midwest pastors launched the Turtle Island Project because they believe the world is sitting on the brink of important cultural, economic and religious issues that will either allow humans to prosper in harmony with the Earth or become the only species to cause its own extinction.
Most views in the last week:
- Tell us what you think about the 'Navajobama' T-shirt, and we'll send your comments to the manufacturer—and to the Obama for President campaign. (No profanities, please.)
- A Native American gay wedding ceremony takes place at a Two Spirit gathering in Montana.
- The Native actor’s role on 'Law and Order: SVU' is coming to an end, but he plans to stay busy with an Internet TV show, a book and a new baby.
- Omission disappoints Native Americans attending the presidential candidate's speech in Wisconsin. Others express concern over Obama's stance on Indian gaming.
- Crows wait in line for more than six hours to hear the Democratic presidential candidate. 'Somebody finally recognized us enough to come an extra few hours,' says one tribal member.
