Is it true that settlers are even more racist than they let on?
Racism has changed shape since 1906. Where it was more physical and apparent, it has had to change to go underground. I believe that racism is a self-defeating game that does not help us get what we want. If we're stuck in being racist to another race, culture or ethnic backround, we cannot committ to our cause, whatever that be. But as this racism has changed, it has had to go underground. It has become more sneaky. But at time, with the right trigger, that racism can be sparked. I think alot of people out there need to do alot of work on them selves if they are pre-occupied with hating, descriminating or prejudging people. It doesn't work your ourselves, nor our people. Unfortunatly, KKKanadian society isn't as 'multi-cultural' as it likes to preach.
From goverment to society, there are more KKKanadian's that would rather us not succeed, then there are ones who want us to. I will admit; there are some who want us to genuwinly succeed so badly, they support us at amazing levels. On the flip side; there are some settlers who want us to either succeed to a "certain" level, so that it can benifit themselves. (Hence Aboriginalism). But I feel that, because of education and the system, KKKanadian's are produced and habor resentment and racism for Indigenous peoples. Hopefully, through right key actions and targets we can change that, spread some light into the world, and possibly change the world.

Do you think there is a difference in commitment in living for something and dying for something?
My take on "life" in general is that; life is ment to be lived and live life by the experences. We have this life, this gift. I imagine the gods would be jelous of us because we're only alive for a tiny moment of time. I figure if life is ment to be lived. And living life means having experences, then life your life to the fullest. If you committ your life for somthing, you will extremly succeed. Giving is receiving, and you cannot give when your dead. Although death is apart of life, it will happen when it's ment too. I say: live life. Committ to your life purpose, you will find inner enlightment and also spread light into other peoples life. But if it must come to it, dying for somthing will be an extreme sacrifice. But you cannot live your purpose when your dead.Is season 2.0 of Battlestar Galactica really as good as they say?
If your on the edge of your seat from Adama getting shot by Cylon Sharon, wait till you see how much Battlestar Galactica and the fleet will start to spiral downward even more and more into darkness of abyss as season 2.0 begins. With the twists, turns and epiphanies about the fleet and Cylon alike, season 2 will have you on the edge of your seat for the majority of the way through. The suspence cliff hanger for the mid-season two parter will also leave to on a hang. If you do anything for yourself, you will buy this now!

Hey here's two more questions for you, OMR:
What can we learn from the way work is done in the longhouse about healing in the bigger world?
And given the fact that it is impossible to teach First Nations history in schools without either fixing us in the past or romanticizing the present, what hope is there that settlers will ever understand how truly complex, alilve and unique First Nations cultures really are?
