Urban Indigenous

Aug 18

On this fourth Thursday of November, you might ask yourself: do Indians celebrate Thanksgiving? Well… Thanksgiving is a complicated holiday for Native people. In a way, each day is a day of thanksgiving to the Creator for the original people of Turtle Island. This doesn't mean that we don't enjoy turkey, pie and family as much as the next person, but at the same time the Thanksgiving myth largely shared in mainstream culture perpetuates a one sided view of a complicated history surrounding this holiday. Here’s an informed indigenous view on Thanksgiving: http://blog.nmai.si.edu/main/2013/11/do-indians-celebrate-thanksgiving.html

This doesn’t prevent us from “celebrating” in our own way by giving you a new song called Burn Your Village To The Ground.

A Tribe Called Red - Burn Your Village To The Ground

A Tribe Called Red - All Day Feat. Kool A.D. And Chippewa Travelers

This song by Mary Black and Gabriel Guiboche is dedicate to the memory and call for justice of Colten Bouchie, Azraya Kokopenace, and Delaine Copenace and all Missing & Murdered Indienous People worldwide. 

It also has personal experiences tied into the lyrics with the mistreatment and inequality met by the indigenous population in Canada when it comes to them being endangered and targeted. If you didn't know, the indigenous population is constantly facing discrimination and even within the Canadian justice system and all over the world. People murder the indigenous and most of the time get away with it or serve an insignificant sentence after being released. The indigenous population faces injustice at an alarming rate and this song embodies such experiences and emotions that follow from it.

"Your physical body may be gone but your memory will live on in our hearts and minds and through our voices. Deepest condolences and respects being sent to the families, friends, and all people that have been effected by these tragic losses." - Voices of Thunder
