~Greed Must Bow~ freedom harshly threatened greed stomps out compassion religious rights are compromised peaceful Elders treated with disrespect as they gather to fast and pray lift up your voice, be heard greed must bow to freedom ~vlraynes My friends, the situation at Big Mountain is such a grave injustice. Please take a moment to follow this link for more informaton about the mistreatment of the Dine'/Navajo tribes. Make your voice heard, and help protect the religious freedoms of these indigenous peoples. http://www.blackmesais.org Thank you, ~vicky Marge, thank you for bringing this situation to my attention, and to the attention of so many others. You are wonderful!  "...until you have read the verse on his heart, you have not truely met the poet." -vlraynes [This message has been edited by vlraynes (edited 07-17-2001).] |

Vicky: What a great way to draw people's attention to what is happening to the Hopi and Navajo near Big Mountain, Arizona. Let's hope that there will be so much support by the 30th, the charges will be dismissed. Betty Lou Hebert |
