Despite competent and good minds working on this project, it failed to include one of our schools on Tribal lands - why?

POLÍTICA LOCAL - POR QUÉ IMPORTA LA TRANSPARENCIA

Un año después, un bono se somete a votación en el Distrito Escolar de North Kitsap. Un bono por un valor aproximado de $264 millones de dólares. Así es. ¿Y adivina qué?

El lamento, el arrepentimiento y la oración de Adviento de un pastor blanco… Cyon Edgerton

Hemos elegido la política y el progreso antes que la paz.

Hemos elegido el éxito sobre tu Espíritu.

Hemos buscado poder, posición y privilegios más que su presencia.

Hemos subido a plataformas en lugar de arrodillarnos a vuestros pies.

Hemos colonizado su evangelio y bastardizado su misión.

A white pastor’s lament, repentance, and Advent prayer… Cyon Edgerton

We have chosen politics and progress over peace.

We have chosen success over your Spirit.

We have sought power, position, and privilege more than your presence.

We have climbed onto platforms rather than knelt at your feet.

We have colonized your gospel and bastardized your mission.

sundown poulsbo, part 1 - an introduction -- danielle s. Rueb - castillejo

Historians have found that most sundown towns deliberately hid the means by which they became and remained all-white. Apart from oral histories, there are often few archival records that describe precisely how sundown towns excluded Blacks. Laws and policies that enforced racial exclusion have largely disappeared, but de facto sundown towns existed into the 1980s, and some may still be in evidence today.

¿Qué es un Sistema de supremacía Racial? - Gabriela Ituarte
