So long as folks focus on RACE as a determining factor, they belittle themselves, marginalize our existence, kill our political impact, doom our culture to failure and reveal their ignorance.
It's all based in FEAR.

Ok so you think I'm wrong or racist or hitler or something whatever, I think I've stated my opinion enough to make it clear what my opinion is (and apache heart, I'm not saying it as a sugarcoating, so I'l add that I belkieve that my opinion is correct or it wouldn't be my opinion OK) But what I'd really like to know from Zeke here is this: What is your definition of NDN?
