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

THE COMANCHE x LIGHTBEAM THUNDER X IMC & 20

“The Battle”, track 9 of Teao’s upcoming instrumental album – Moment, is a musical representation of a soul navigating through “a time where suffering and ignorance is at its peak, and humans are divided and are at war”. “The Battle” sequels track 8 - “True Colors” (which represents the process of raising one’s understanding of self and awareness of the suffering of others), and is about activism in a time when the dire state of humanity is in need of a positive response to injustices impacting Mama Earth and her people.  For the track, Teao plays the violin, charango, bass, percussion, drum programming, and features a Mridunga VS Turntable battle with Vijay Krsna of Kirtaniyas and DJ Offerings (Teao’s DJ alias).  He adds vocal samples from Tupac, Charlie Chaplin, Peter Tosh, Malcolm X, and Neale Donald Walsch – author of “Conversations with God”.
