Nicknames Matter |
Maybe if 11,000 living Native Americans who have been disenrolled, called ourselves FORMER REDSKIN SQUAWS Secretary Deb Haaland might take notice of us?
U.S. Interior Secretary Deb Haaland in November formally declared the term squaw derogatory and initiated a process to remove the word from use by the federal government and to replace other existing derogatory place names. She has NOT declared disenrollment for power and greed wrong.
That's right. Secretary Haaland has not declared the violations of Civil and Human Rights, Elder Abuse, Theft, Denial of Heritage, Apartheid, Loss of Voting Rights, Health Care and Education.. derogatory or wrong.
Maybe the new name for disenrolled will help?

We the dis-enrolled of the Saginaw Chippewa Tribe have been SQUAWED!!
Deb Haaland needs to get her head out of her ass and start addressing the real issues. The United States government is still committing genocide against Native Americans through DIS-ENROLLMENT and the Native American assigned to protect us is looking the other way, taking Tribal Casino money and saying a big fuck you to the dis-enrolled!
She is nothing more than a figure head, a token person, a face, look we have a Native American heading the DOI, wow and the only thing she can do is take pics for Vogue, dress up in Regalia and take away derogatory words, meanwhile the dis-enrolled are dying, losing medical benefits, housing, getting erased from their culture, the list goes on…….
Yep we’ve been SQUAWED!
She has become a white Indian, just like some people thought she would.
