When the European first came here, Columbus, we could drink out of any river. If the Europeans had lived the Indian way when they came wed still be drinking out of the water. Cause the water is sacred. The air is sacred. Our DNA is made of the same DNA as the tree. The tree breathes what we exhale. When the tree exhales we need what the tree exhales, so we have a common destiny with the tree… We are all from the Earth. And when the Earth & atmosphere is corrupted, then it will create its own reaction. Our mother is reacting… ~Floyd Red Crow Westerman The world has become a market, and its this market we have to deal with, this idea of boundless and endless resources. When you say resources you are talking about our relatives, talking about our family. Fish are not a resource, they are our family and require respect… The structure of the world itself, it functions on natural law, and the natural law is a powerful regenerative process. Its a process of regeneration that continues and grows and is endless. Its absolutely endless if everyone agrees to the law and follows the law. But if you challenge the law, and you think you are going to change the law, then you are bound to failure… ~John Trudell (American Indian Movement
