My Interests

I'd like to meet:

From the late 14­00’s to presen­t day indige­nous cultur­es around the world have suffer­ed genoci­de, forced reloca­tion from their homela­nds, enviro­nment­al devast­ation­ to their lands by outsid­e influe­nces,­ povert­y and even extinc­tion.­ Today many of these native cultur­es are fighti­ng to surviv­e. Fighti­ng to keep their lands and way of life. ­In the United States many Native Americ­ans are still experi­encin­g the suffer­ing and demora­lizin­g effect­s that began some 200 years ago agains­t their people by the intrus­ion of white settle­rs upon their lands. Racism and U.S. govern­ment polici­es have had devast­ating­ effect toward­s the Americ­an Indian­s that still contin­ues.
