Native American Political Issues

Mr. Government

Mr. Government,
Look at my Forest,
Clearcut for Corporate America.
Unnecessary destruction,
And the environment is dying.

Mr. Government,
Look at my rivers and streams,
Polluted by Corporate America.
Unnecessary destruction,
And the environment is dying.

Mr. Government,
Look at my mountains and valleys,
Destroyed by Corporate America.
Unnecessary destruction,
And the environment is dying.

Mr. Government,
Look at my four-legged and winged relations,
Murdered by Corporate America.
Unnecessary destruction,
And the environment is dying.

Mr. Government,
Look at my aquatic life
Polluted and destroyed by Corporate America.
Unnecessary destruction,
And the environment is dying.

Mr. Government,
Look at our reservations,
Destroyed by you, society,
And Corporate America.
Unnecessary destruction,
Of the culture and beliefs,
Of the Indian people,
The Sovereign Nations,
Of men, women and children,
Old and young,
Ties to the environment,
All dying in the name of greed.

"When the white man stops insisting that the Indian adhere to his ways and allows us to live as Indians, the Indian problem will be solved."
-- John Stevens, Passamaquoddy Tribal Governor

"The Indians survived our open intention of wiping them out, and since the tide turned they have even weathered our good intentions toward them, which can be much more deadly"
-- John Steinbeck, from America and Americans
