An Indomitable Spirit
Advertisement
This is a special re-broadcast of an earlier interview in remembrance of Russell Means, who passed away on October 22nd, 2012 at his home in Porcupine, South Dakota.
Russell Means was the legendary leader for the American Indian Movement. He led the 1972 seizure of the Bureau of Indian Affairs headquarters in Washington, D.C., and in 1973 led a standoff at Wounded Knee, South Dakota, on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, a response to the massacre of at least 150 Lakotah men, women, and children by the U.S. Seventh Cavalry at a camp near Wounded Knee Creek.
He had an indomitable spirit, and spent his life speaking out against the brutal conditions on the Pine Ridge Reservation (SD), the poorest county in America, where the life expectancy that ranks with the 8 poorest nations in the world, in Africa.
In these excerpts, Means warns that Americans have lost the ability of critical thought, and with each successive generation become more irresponsible and as a consequence less free, disregarding a near-perfect document, the Constitution, which was derived from Indian law. Means chronicles the loss of freedom from the 1840's onwards, which marked the birth of the corporation, to Lincoln's declaration of martial law, to the latter part of the 19th century and into the 20th when Congress "started giving banks the right to rule," and private banking interests began printing the money."
He cuts to the truth in these interviews, always courageous, insightful and visionary.
The voice and work of this great man will be missed.
