“This nation was born in Genocide when it embraced doctrines of discovery. This nation was born in genocide, sired by Manifest Destiny. Swords and guns, disease and religion, we see the heavens fall. It’s been prophecied that the Serpent will rise, and then the children of men will crawl. Genocide! There’s no peace without no justice. There’s no peace without no justice. Gut up the earth, poison the lands, pollute the waters, let the creatures die. ‘The only good Indian is a dead Indian.’ In this racist system it’s a Genocide! ‘But when you kill me innocent blood will be shed.’ Then lo the blood will flow. And when our hearts beat low, then we lift our voices to the sky. How Long? Can’t you see us suffer? How long? Can’t you hear our cry? How long will you hide your face and not answer the terror of this Genocide?!! …’Save me, my hearts open wide. Help me, no question of pride. Save me, my people have died. Total Genocide! Then lo, the blood will flow. And when our hearts beat low, then we lift our voices to the sky. How Long? Can’t you see us suffer? How long? Can’t you hear our cry? How long will you hide your face and not answer the terror of this Genocide?!! And not answer the terror of this Genocide? Your American dream is still a Genocide! Take back your reservation education system. Your American Dream is still a Genocide. ‘Kill the Indian, save the man.’ Your American Dream is still a Genocide!” \m/ #xoyotesoldier
