early morning on Six Nations re-claimed land

a little late inmany ways: WIth so much f****d up in le monde, I finally carved out some time from my academically short-sighted life to spend the night 11pmsat-12pm sun. support, two days after the police attempt to remove people from the Six Nations blockade in Caledonia. Got up there after 53 or so days of the Six Nations blocade of land marked for housingdevelopmnent on contested(gvmt-stolen) land.

I dont have the coherence to write more, becuase i am still lost under the pile of papers, afore-pictured, how ever this land claim action is much more important. The town of Caledonia is airing out some of its biggots too. kind of scary-- the media and school system fostered ignorance and the community vs community-- the arguements reminiscent of poor-working/working/middle class/pitting being pit against indigenous protestors is a reminder of how far we have not come.
