The old holy blanket

I have had the opportunity to receive a real old blanket. It was gifted to me by a good friend from the Chicago area. It is an old trade blanket. His mother paid 1,000 dollars for the blanket at an antique auction show.

I was thinking of having an edge at my Midewiwin ceremony, I mean imagine that, giving away a 100+ year old blanket. But, I don't need an edge, I have time on my side. Most people will not admit that they all like an advantage, over their enemy's. I however have produced many enemies the past few years. And most of these people who are my enemies, are all members of the Midewiwin. Damn, might as well be a Christan with some of my other Mide' relatives. Because if I make a mistake, or if I choose not to live to the principals of the Midewiwn knowledge, at least I will think that I have Jesus to save me. .............HMMMM

Anyhow, before I received this great gift, I started to wonder about it's authenticity, where it came from, what tribe was involved with it's agreements,etc,etc.

As, my friend started to hint around that he was going to gift me the blanket, I couldn't help but wonder about the original owners. However, you see, I am a Mide person with a conscious. Call me what ever you need to , but I think deeply, but before I think, I get the advice from the elders that are left. Geno Bearhart, Gearge Auginaush, Jerry Smith, Arnie Ogema, John Mitchell, Panji Gahbow, Tom Stillday, Reggie Garbow, Charlie roach, Bennie Rodgers, Mobin Merrill, Francis Songetay, ect, etc. Now if you personally phone anyone of these elders, which whom some are from the ST. CROIX RESERVATION, they will tell you how respectful I really am. They will tell you many things about me, and they will tell you how sincere I am to their spiritual legacy's and concerns. I have never used elders, for the personal gain of " looking like a good old guy." I have always kept elders close to me, to yell at me, to correct my thinking and yes, to GET TO KNOW. As I spoke to a few elders about the blanket, they told me to " sell it- to put it up on e-bay." Of course they were all joking, but they told me to follow my heart and do what I needed to do with the blanket.

So, I shared the blanket with what elders I could and I still couldn't help but wonder......about a presidential medallion.

My dad has a family member who has one of these coins. It is a Chief-Presidential medallion/coin. I have been wondering where that coin was at, it sure was not with the Chief of the St. croix band. This coin was kept under a secret-kinda oath. Some people decide that when the last hereditary chief passed away, that they needed to posses this coin. Maybe they think that the medallion posses some king of holy power that will be passed on to the next of kin, but we all know, that , spiritual knowledge does not work like this.

Presidential coins were actually given to certain bands and old Chiefs of many different tribes. In lack of time and space, let's just say for now, that these old Medallion/Coins were given to Chiefs for piece opportunity's and recognition.

Now, it seems like- if you are certain type of Midewiwin person and you do not have vast amounts of elders guiding you about your Midewiwin conscious- YOU CAN DO WHAT YOU DAMN WELL PLEASE-BECAUSE HEY-YOU DON'T NEED OTHER USELESS ELDERS TO TELL YOU WHAT TO DO. BESIDES, THIS IS THE 21ST CENTURY AND MIND YOUR OWN DAMN BUSINESS.

Point is, I have been gifted something pretty cool. As Geno Bearhart once told me " the Spirits are bringing things to you way before hand-you just have to be patient and figure out why they are bringing you the sacred items."

I think I will go and see that blanket now and hope that their is no small pox within it's warmth.

Ogabek.

Whats up with all the Midewijig??

I finally have some good discussion with one of my close relatives. Mad did they ever fill my soul with some important information.

I have stayed away from my community for a lot of legitimate reasons. My community has been ransacked, pillaged and desecrated by people who call themselves Midewijig or of the faith of Midewiwin.

I strive for harmony and balance. People who think they know all about Midewiwin or who display this attitude, should not be trusted. When you have a European attitude( do as i say-not as i do-) and you have European blood and you have Indigenous blood, there is already conflict on many levels. Do you satisfy your European blood line and not give a hoot about anyone or do you follow your Anishinabe blood line and love everything and everybody?

People will always criticize me and what unique styles i bring to the ever sophisticated changing Colosseum. A Colosseum in which many battles will be fought, by me for the poor against the people who have had everything their whole lives. I represent the poor because they are always the majority. Besides who wants to be poor, not one of a European bloodline, Christ, they conquered and manipulated the Aboriginals of the worlds, so they could acquire their taste for brand new BMW'S-Houses, Lexus es, land Acquisition and use their education to snub out the opinions of the poor and "uneducated.""

I see a tremendous amount of opposition to my Anishinabeg people, who call themselves Midewijig.

Midewiwin was not for everyone who brought thier tobacco to the old people. There was a lot of policing involved with people in regards to thier mind frame and how this frame of mind was delicate to the " true nature of Midewiwin."

Now, we have white people-100% European people being put through our Midewiwn, this is something i cannot allow to happen. I cannot allow myself to be a part of a prophecy no one gives a damn about. When you are white, and you have pitty for your white blood line, than " hey come into our ceremony--besides no one will oppose us ,We know everything about Midewiwin."

This is where the masses start to turn on me, because I speak my mind, if there is opposition and this opposition and Elite form of mentality need to be addressed, than i will cfonfron anyone and everyone connected to hte BEAST.

Now, if you are going to write a book and you want your book to flourish in all the wordly markets, you better go through the Midewiwin. If you are going to be a professor of some sort and you need to get that extra edge, you better go through Midewiwin.

If you are a White man and or woman, with out health insurance, you need MideWiwin. Because when it is all said and done, everyone is going to talk shit behind your back. Most Midewijig will not be there for you when you confront the beast and it's second, third and fourth heads. They will do what they are geared to do, LOOK THE OTHER WAY AND ACT LIKE THEY DON'T SEE A DAMN THING WRONG.

Everyone wants to be part of the winners club, nobody wants to be labeled a LOSER, FULL OF SHIT, A THIEF, JEALOUS, CRAZY.

If you want to say things to me, come to my community and talk to me face to face. Those who are out there and don't like me, well, we all know who you are.

Gary Webb- The man who told the truth

It seems pretty ironic that a path is being created to the likes of Gary Webb...and I see myself walking on this path of ; ambush, disarray, dishonesty and disloyalty, all of them at it's finest, yet most concealable form of " being with the terrorists or against us."
I will write more on that topic later, Check out the website www.dunwalke.com/4_narco_Dollars.html
If there is information about people that needs to be addressed, so let it be. Elders who are respected, wise and capable of still seeing the real "truths" will be heard.

NILE=HOME

I once knew this man named nile. He was a first speaker of the Anishinabeg language. He taught me different ways to speak. He also said I was a great passive speaker and that was one of my gifts, to understand tremendous amounts of verbs and not beable to successfully fire these verbs out at will.
Well, long story short, Nile was politically and from a career standpoint, assassinated - point blank range.
I have not ever heard from him ever again.
Well, It's like this; Nile, had a past. I never knew about his past and well, one day some young person comes out of the woodwork and says he has " dirt" on Nile.
Some people caught wind of this information and played with good ole Nile. Nile did not see what was coming at him, he was blackmailed, used until he could not offer anymore and finally was confronted about his past.
Good ole Nile fell like a domino. Nile, unlike most people did not recover his stance and disappeared from the mainstream, he was mamed.
I tried to warn Nile, but he was to busy with his work and life. I understand now.
The past is the past and yet we can learn from it and we can choose to ignore it. People have chosen to bring up my past, this I can not avoid. However, unlike Nile, I will not go down like a domino, I will choose to prevail and get stronger each new day. I might be full of human defication, but I do not sway from confrontation. When our elders are disrespected, people need to know and rise up against forces that be. I could sit around and think that know one likes me, get all depressed and lie down like Nile. Well, people know me better than that. If there are truths that need to be told, I will be one of many Anishinabeg that will tell these stories. Now in our age of so called technology, we as Anishinabeg can write our experiences, express our ideas, thoughts and self wisdom into a cyber that meshes into one super computer.......A QUANTUM COMPUTER.........................................................................................................
Many people have dirt on me. Good for them. Unfortunatly, Nile had some real black dirt. There is much more to the story- does anyone have time?

Provocation

Damn. What have I done? Did I tell some truth that everyone hates to admit? Shit. Well, as long as the attention is on me, why don't I sell some real propoganda.....Does the state of Georgia sound familiar?

Anyone who does not talk about the world and it's diverse economies might as well - go buy some Starbucks, listen to CNN and keep role playing midewiwin and continue to suck up to the " good old boys."

Well, if anyone does not think that the great USA, the country that has historically fed the American economy lie after lie, is not involved in the State of Georgias affairs and demise. You need to not read anymore, keep living in your little world.

I have met many different people in my life and oddly enough, I have met a man that (says) he use to be a military covert operative. I think he still is active. I act like I cannot read his Soul and actions. However, when I had asked him about what his military experience was, he would not respond and yet, he was serious, firm and told me is his own way " not to go there."

So, when I had asked him about Russia and it's so called attack on Georgia, he responded " its like you Indians and the government- your people use to stand up and fight for their sovereignty- now they coward at the first sight of confrontation." HMM does this sound familiar---CONFRONTATION???????

He went on to also relate first hand that it is never the way you hear it from the mainstream press. He said that Georgia is merely defending it self and it's sovereignty. He went on to say that Georgia was sick of getting pushed around (NO-----who would push their ideal beliefs on a group of sovereign people?) and had to defend themselves.

Anyone getting sick of war? Anyone with me, to defend our communities from forces that impose elite thoughts, beliefs and propoganda?

Wadena-(h)

Some time ago, my mother asked me to take my given birth name, before my original father had changed it. " Jason lee wadena." Yeah, it sounds good to me and always has. There are many wadena families- from Millelacs to WhiteEarth to Buffalo Bay. On the resevation of Mille Lacs, there was a time when there were 13 brothers and one sister who lived in the Mille Lacs area. For some of you who might not know, a Wadena in Anishinabe language means " captured sioux or Lakota."

Eventually, 7 out of the 13 brothers left the Mille Lacs area and left for White Earth. The Wadena's who had inhabited the Buffalo bay area, were about 5 families. I do not know how many members there are left in the Buffalo Bay area. One thing "cool" about the original Wadena, was that he could speak both Anishinabe and Lakota. Imagine having this gift in the time of war? How did he feel towards having Lakota blood and yet, having Anishinabeg family, friends and children. How strong did original Wadena have to be against himself. Wadena could easily sneak to enemy Lakota-Dakota war parties, be spotted and play it off as a captured relative or friend. He than could witness what Anishinabeg Villages and bands were going to be attacked and who would be counted as " coup."

Later on the Great Anishinabeg Chief Wadena, always had his Anishinabeg people in mind. He always wanted the best for his bands and people. Many Anishinabeg, never understood his ideas and concerns for his people. Yet, it never distracted his decisions and personal feelings when it came to making wise decisions and yes, mistakes as well.

Foxy and WhiteFoxy

The clock is ticking. In less than a week, my community of Round Lake,Wisconsin which resides in the county of Polk, will once again have it's share of "portable" self-contained, aboriginal junkies. These Junkies, are on the prowl and search for "new blood." These Junkies are vampires and they claim to be Spiritual beings. In all retrospect, they are false prophets. The leader of their school is named Foxy. This being is the worst to man kind. Not only is foxy a half breed, but foxy is neither sly or slick. He will go to the extreme when he does not get his way. Take me for example, him and his white twin (though, they are really not twins) tried to put their modern day post elite school mentality and mannerisms on me. SHIT. It didn't work on me, matter of factly, it just motivated me. However, because I am an advocate for principals that are forgotten and misrepresented and I can see what Foxy and his twin are up to, I had to be sacrificed and so called "ridiculed." Funny thing about Foxy and his white attitude and brother, is that, they miss the genuineness and purity of what I possess and personify. Foxy and White Foxy represent the educated, feeble and complacent individuals. Foxy and White foxy have gone to post elite schools. Some of the ideas and principals they have brought en back from these institutes is 1) Complacency- They will fight and Mame their own kind( but they are half breeds half white-half Aboriginal) but, when it comes to Aboriginal struggles and activism, you will not see Foxy or White Foxy stand up against the Government,Corporations or anything that is Euro-centric related, because they would be "dishonoring" the main piece of their being. Plus, if they really used their tools that they were given, they would "fear" losing their jobs. Now tell me, who are the cowards and backstabbers??? 2) Ideal beliefs and attitudes- In post secondary institutes, there is no room for mishaps,problems or mistakes. When these attitudes are adopted and personified, you have a pumped up Foxy and White Foxy. So, than the common people are looked upon as all "mishaps, degenerates, feeble and scum." It is a good thing we have Fox and White Foxy to save us from the Government and it's ever reaching tentacles. Shit, Foxy and White Fox are one of the Tentacle's of the government-designed to manipulate overtly and covertly the people they are destined to "conquer." Hmmmm. I think they think, we are related to the Iraq people and we need to be liberated by them, because they bring elitism and it's principals to our communities. But, would Foxy and White Foxy ever think of sacrificing their reputations and selves to even oppose the war? HELL NO! They are wimps and buffoons. Plus they already get to "feast" on the commoners.

They want people to approve what they are doing. Even if that means they have to build lies, deception and deceit(sound familiar). Hell, these two guys are stand up people and could do no wrong, because people worship them. Unlike them, i do not believe in Jesus and his philosophies. I do not carry an ounce of his teachings in my soul or in my everyday life. However, Foxy and white foxy covertly hang on to Jesus. They do not think I know, but I can see Jesus in them.

Foxy and White Foxy claim to know the "people." They think by knowing the people, they have to Spiritually guide and befriend the common people.
