“We do not consent to Kinder Morgan's application for the willful destruction to this beautiful part of our territory...We commend all those who stand to protect the sacred.”—Squamish Nation Chief Ian Campbell

People blockading other people hell bent on destruction and chaos is why I speak these words. Honouring those struggling knowing the truth that oil is injected in the brains and soulless governments operating under a mask to protect oil and gas industries. I speak therefore I am human and speaking truth is difficult though I'm growing tired of the earth being wasted in the namesake of "progressing" forward.

Clayoquot Sound to Burnaby Mountain: Living in the Colonial Duress of "Progress"

Stefanie: You asked for a recording of my voice and thought process and what is to follow is beyond me but this is my truth and it is a bit disorganized and all over the place. Though this is my reality to living and surpassing occupation. Occuptation of my mind, voice and heart I suppose. Looking to empower myself and pray to pass that along. I was taught, educated and brought up to share my gifts. Art, visual art, film, writing, poetry, speaking, these are some of my talents so this is for you...for anyone willing to listen, to truly and deeply listen to a struggle and story that many carry, we are not alone

Native Thoughts about Nationalism: Speaking Truths through Occupation

**CAUTION: TRACK CONTAINS EXPLICIT LANGUAGE**

This is something I speak about with close friends, Q2IPOC spaces and have never really shared publicly with the world my views on the maleness, which is something I placed into by a society I have no connection with; this track, I must warn you, has some strong, explicit language and isn't for everyone but I'm sharing so everyone can hear it; feel free to share

Seeing Sexual Prowess & Leaving Humanity Behind

This is a track dedicated to my Mom, Eileen, she is important to me and to our family, she carries a strong sense of cultural knowledge that is rooted deeply like in the veins of our Hul'qumi'num ways, she is woman, powerful, insightful and my mother. I was taught to "Speak up, speak loud, speak from the heart." Hy'ch'qu Siem for these thirty years of life, mom <3 Merry Christmas or really, all the same warm greetings on this winter season I see as a time to be with family and friends.

Hereditary Chief Beau Dick walked from Alert Bay to Lekwungen Territory to break copper, shame the canadian governments, recently I learned of his passing into the spirit world and his next journey with his ancestors so I have been searching for the recordings I made of his speech just before the copper was struck.

Boma Brown is the Director of Internal Affairs with Vancouver Island Public Interest Research Group and the university of victoria. She made this much longer podcast sometime last year, naturally I took and mashed it up, highlighting her and Lux's problematic release of this podcast, I confronted both of them though without much recourse no further actions were taken, she at one point in this podcast points out how ableist and classicist she is being (telling people to shower and get jobs, basement activists doing nothing) yet continues to laugh at own liberal politics, nearly close to conservative ideology we often hear on the radio in the united snakes of amerikkka, citing activists at uvic doing nothing but sit around (clearly that's all I do is sit around, editing crap podcasts and exposing upstairs activists that use the basement for their what can only be described as whitewashing the issues at hand), she demands activists do something about the world, so Boma Brown and Lux West, I'm doing something but as a non-activist because I am Hul'qumi'num, meaning I am Indigenous to so-called "vancouver island" and Boma and Lux are not, please take you're garage ideas and go the fuck back home, go far away from my ancestral homelands, this level of hate is not welcome here!

SNAKES IN THE GRASS - 2017 - 03 - 30, 3.14 AM

I am Native, creative, bold, a man that stood and told the truth of genocide and ecocide, a man on a mission to find culture and to quit eating colonial foods have become my latest strife to walk away from the monetary wealth ruling my world. I am outspoken and enjoy spoken word poems, all types of music, learning to play the guitar. I'm a film maker, excellent writer, blogger, witness to Indigenous nations asserting sovereignty daily.
