Who stole the American (Amerikkklan) Dream? (Nightmale). Lets begin with a few facts prior to contact (1492) we (indigenous) lived at peace with one other (no jails) had no poverty (money) and most of all lived with respect to our Mother Earth. And now because the middle class and the dominant (whites) culture is now experiencing and seeing how us natives have treated since the birth of this Bullshit (European outpost) country. Here is few facts of the Amerikkklan dream has been with indigenous peoples 1) 99% murder of the total population and its an unrecognized genocide 2) 392 Treaties with this government none honored 3) the life expectant of the age of 47 as compared to 70 and up for whites 4) Put on Reservations which were social economic jails. Not to complain how we were treated but to look toward viable solutions. First, we have to look at the American Dream as just that because you would have to be asleep to believe it. Secondly, you cannot have an economic (money) system with a sick or out of balance Mother Earth- Global Climate change and a plastic ocean.
