BETWEEN THE SF MAIN LIBRARY AND THE MUSEUM OF ASIAN ARTS - SITS A MONUMENT - VISIBLE FROM SF CITY HALL - THAT DISGRACEFUL MONUMENT IS VISIBLE.

This singular monument to the Pioneers -

is a disgrace to the human race -

picturing a Native American as a savage -

the Franciscan Friar - reaching out to civilize him -
mocking the annihilation of the First People in California.

This land once known as Turtle Island - covers an area of over 313,232,044 acres -  an area close to 3,717,812.8 square miles.

Today we have a population of over 330 million - there are nations like China, India that have a population of over a Billion.

The resources we have are plenty and we owe the fruits of the land - every aspect of it - to the Native Americans.

Yet this Nation does not feel ashamed that Native Americans continue to live on Reservations - while fertile land - has been stolen and infertile land - given to those that are protectors of Turtle Island. Such are the ways of the devious - those that cannot be trusted.

In year 2018 - those that stole every square inch of this land - have NO shame and continue to think they are superior - when the opposite is true. 

Much is owed to the Native Americans - the very basic respect that is important to everyone - is missing - and in its place - daily, ploys, machinations, and shenanigans.

Such are the ways of those that speak with a fork tongue their hearts in the wrong place.

Camp Oceti Sakowin - 

we travelled 1600 miles to witness -

from San Francisco to Lakota Land -

the gathering of over 20,000 people -

to fight the North Dakota Pipeline -

but to also state - enough is enough.

Here in San Francisco and the neighboring areas -

the Muwekma Ohlone have been ignored -

Federal Recognition and other hurdles put in one's way -

even though DNA tests have been produced -

to affirm continuity of the Tribe now numbering over 500 members.

These symbols revered by our Elders - bring families together - and more Tribal affiliation.

From young - Native American children are taught to respect their Elders, honor their culture, honor their sacred dances, honor their relatives, honor the host nations - on their travels - pray and ask the Great Spirit for protection and more.

All over Turtle Island - for over 15,000 years - all carbon dated for verification - remains and artifacts - clearly show who inhabited this land - better known as Turtle Island - now called the United States of America.

This nefarious photograph taken circa 1938 -

under the Rotunda at SF City Hall -

Nazis taking their oath - right at SF City Hall -

San Francisco has inherent racial bias -

and this photograph and other empirical data 

proves my point - cultural competency does not 

exists in San Francisco - and implicit bias has run amuck.

I was at SF City Hall when some Native Americans - addressed the SF Arts Commission ( a very biased and racist commission ).

Pleading with the SF Arts Commission to remove the indecent monument - that Pioneers Monument - that clearly portrays all that is evil with Society - slavery, showing the Native American cowing to some Franciscan Friar.

The matter before the SF Arts Commission was the removal of the Pioneers Monument - that the SF Arts Commission - agreed to the process.

This important matter - then went to the SF Planning Department that did not agree with the idea - and then before the SF Appeals Commission - that truly revealed its colors - and took the position that the ugly, racist monument - stay put.

So much for San Francisco being a fair city - and the diversity and all the other rosy things we say about San Francisco - when the opposite is true.

I have been saying that we must respect our Elders - and ask for their blessings. 

We must respect the host Nation in this case the Muwekma Ohlone and should have contacted a representative - to fulfill the obligations - all Native Americans follow.

In June there will be a meeting held - to re-hear this case before the SF Board of Appeals Committee - and we must all show up - at City Hall on the fourth floor - Room 400.

All over San Francisco and near by area including Yerba Buena - hundreds of remains were found.

 Those in charge - do not follow the protocol - laid down in the Native Americans Graves Protection and Rehabilitation Act (NAGPRA).

Here is San Francisco this desecration takes place - often - and those in authority look the other way.

Denying access to perform the rituals laid down - the protocol in place to take inventory - to allow the next of kin - the Tribal entity that has jurisdiction over the area.

Here in San Francisco the Muwekma Ohlone - are NOT informed - protocols put in place - are not followed.

Much as when anyone dares ask the City and County of San Francisco if they have one single document - where the Muwekma Ohlone has signed over one single square inch of San Francisco.

A Muwekma Ohlone Warrior

No such proof exists and no such document exists - which proves who is the thief, the robber, those that have no morals, less ethics and for sure NO standards what so ever.

Those in authority have learned how to created hurdles to deny those that are the owners of the land denying them territorial claims, removing entire tribes and putting them on land that is not fertile.

Such actions cry to heaven for justice - and the time will come - when all those that deny the rights to the Native Americans - will fall - flat on their face and more.

What decent civilization would send a young sister to Los Angeles - a sibling brother to Oakland - young children - to fend for themselves. But for the Quakers and some decent citizens who came to the rescue - of these children now grown up and still bear the trauma and the scars of childhood.

For how long can this nonsense go on?

Single handedly I have saved Shell Mounds - at Crissy Field at the Presidio of San Francisco - Sacred Burial Sites of the Ohlone.

Some of us have been in the trenches of decades - and to fight these evil people who desecrate - without blinking an eye - who say one thing and do another.

Much as the Elders say - do not trust those that speak with a " forked tongue " - much like a poisonous snake - and more those that do not have their heart in the right - place.

Wisdom does not come easy and missing in our deliberation is the wisdom of the Native American Elders.

The others  - those that steal, rob, rape, do things that are evil  - who are minions  - worship GREED - contaminate and pollute without blinking an eye - have their own nefarious ways - they will drown in the cesspool of their own creation.

I represent the Muwekma Ohlone - work with the Native American Tribes to bring about progress - the Native Americans in the cockpit - we take no dictation that is not vetted and spiritual - we know what is right and what is not - Aho.
