Im here in New York, as a Pacific Caucus representative to the United Nations World Conference on Indigenous Peoples, expressing my outrage that as leaders who are supposed to represent our peoples, to show everyone the solutions we can teach the world, the coordinators have advised the representatives that participating in the Climate change marches would violate our funding. In addition, all references to self- determination and demilitarization have been removed from the final Outcome Document. What has been left is the right to bypass governments to sell out extraction rights on our lands and the creation of a UN level Bureau of Indian Affairs, or OHA that would have the ability to negotiate the rights of all Indigenous Peoples. I say aole.
