Happy New Year in 2010! It’s a new year. The previous year is one that will go down in history for many unprecedented events. Collapses of financial markets, banking system closures, mortgage foreclosures, and ponzi-schemes. But through it all we have stood strong and vibrant. We survive the way we always have through Faith in God. Our community is one of faith and family. We develop each through trust and dependence. Family as seen in our Native American nations, tribes and clans through biological and spiritual ties that bind us together. Our Native American and African American ancestors taught us well. They taught us to not focus on tradegy but to focus on our resiliency. Through it all and yet, we are still here.... as a testimony that evil cannot win. Let us in 2010 commit to a glorious year that involves our participation in the US Census (as Native American self-selection and self-identification). We must maintain financial stability by spending less and saving more of our financial resources. We must take care of our health. Lastly, we must share with others our knowledge, resources, and love. May Peace keep you and Love abound! Black Red Roots forever...
