Yesterday via social media found a new story about a young girl in Texas, that took her own life, because she could not stand all the bullying she received at school. Kids would tell her that they would report her family to I.C.E. (Immigrations and Customs Enforcement) and have them deported.
It really broke my heart. I thought about how inhumane and monstrous people can be to one another. I knew those children that bullied the girl had learned those sentiments and racism from their parents. These kids are products of their environment, even their racist president uses dehumanizing language, and condones and pardons white supremacists.

The governor of the state of Texas is one of those governors choosing to target and ban books, because he doesn’t want the Euro-American children to learn about their true history, and about Critical Race Theory, which might make them question why the world is so unjust.
I do believe this is exactly why they should teach the true history of the U.S. to these Euro-American children, so that they would learn about Turtle Island, and about the true history of how Euro-American’s strong armed/stole the state of Texas, and the whole south west of the United States. They should also teach the children about Turtle Island, and how the natives did not have borders, and traveled freely. They should teach about Aztlan, and about the Native Blood flowing through the veins of the people they bully who are actually native to Turtle Island.

They should also not to forget to teach about how the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo was violated (Mexican Repatriation.)
They should learn about the Apache, Jumano, and the Commanche. They should learn the true history about the Texas Rangers. The over 5,000 lynchings, and all their terror.

Questions Euro-American children who think it is okay to bully others should ask themselves:

1. How did the United States attain all the land they now possess?
2. Why is Hawaii part of the United States, and how did that happen?
3. Why do so many cities in the United States have Spanish names?
4. What happened to the people of the Native Tribes that were already here, how were they displaced, and how are they still treated today?
5. How many thousands of deaths in the last 25 years at the U.S./Mexico border?
6. Why do these people flee, and does U.S. foreign policy have anything to do with that?
7. Is our country considered an empire, and how do people view us around the world, are we a force of good?
8. Are our wars justified?
9. How many civilians do our wars kill, what is the percentage, and of those how many are women and children?
10. Are we the number one incarcerator on the planet and do we really have a for-profit prison system and a for-profit immigration detention system?
11. Is there an incentive to criminalize immigration?
12. Are immigrants from Europe treated differently than those Central America? Is this system racist in anyway?
13. Does our country support dictators, as long as they let us steal resources and will follow instructions?

Homework Assignment

As a homework assignment, the children could talk to their parents about the role of the World Bank, and the I.M.F., and learn about their Structural Adjustment Programs, and they can learn more on how they impoverish countries. They could also discuss the School of the Americas/W.H.I.N.S.E.C, and talk about the death squads trained in the U.S. to commit coups, assassinations, and other acts of evil. Maybe if these kids learned all these things they would see that they are no one to be bullying others.

Growing up in the U.S. I have seen and experienced Lateral Violence my whole life. I never could define what was happening or why. I remember an older white man once told me, “you guys and the blacks are saving us the trouble, by killing each other off.”

Now as an adult I have moved to Europe and I see it here again. I think also me being from the United States adds to it. I understand the U.S. has meddled in many countries and killed millions of people. I understand their frustration, and anger. It is just very frustrating to me feeling like any average “MuriKKKan Martin” can walk around with a stupid red hat, and a big U.S.A. flag t-shirt, and not one BIPOC will approach him. Likewise, I see racist skin heads with SS tattoos and no one says a word.

On the other hand, I feel like I am constantly taking abuse. the harassement, countless dirty looks (not including the hundreds of dirty looks I already recieve from the Germans). I have been pushed several times, insulted, denied service, and I will never forget the man who insisted on fighting me, while showing me his bullet wounds.

These experiences make you angry. These experiences can embitter you, and this is also what we have to fight against. I started this project for myself as well. To understand that souls are different. That every group has monsters, and every group has saints and every group has every other category in the middle and there are people capable of change.

Disappointment produces despair
and despair produces bitterness, and the one thing certain about bitterness is its blindness. Bitterness has not the capacity to make the distinction between some and all.

They are happy now, for their monster is back.

He who lets them be openly hateful is back to insult, harrass and endanger BIPOC. He is back to terrify those who have come to the U.S. looking for a better lives for their families.

the felon Donald J. Trump will replace “Genocide Joe”Biden, a man also responsible for the Genocide in Gaza, among many other crimes. Dispicable, and his party was seen as the lesser of two evils.

Today is a sad day for the planet.

Today is a sad day for Women’s Rights

Today is a sad day for BIPOC.

Today is a sad day for Human Rights.
