The American Empire is arguably the most racist and most violent empire of all-time. It was built from land stolen from Native Americans on the backs of African American Slaves. We are currently engaged in a racist war against Islam worldwide which includes the immoral, illegal wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. We provide unconditional support for the racist policies of our ally Israel in its genocidal war against the Palestinians.
- Until Vermont confronts its relationship with the American Empire and its racist genocidal policies, it is very difficult to speculate on the effects of specific policies aimed at assisting Vermont’s minority population.
- I am a Vermont Abenaki living in an empire owned, operated, and controlled by Wall Street, Corporate America, and the Israeli Mafia. The only moral option available to Vermonters is peaceable withdrawal from the Union.
As an Abenaki I will work to improve communications and cooperation among the various Abenaki clans so that they can present a united front in dealing with the State.
- I will encourage the State Legislature to pass a resolution apologizing to the Abenakis, French Canadians, and others coerced into sterilization by the State’s 1931 sterilization law. The State should pay damages to those affected by the law inspired by the insidious Eugenics Project. But again it’s hard to think about specific racial policies so long as we remain a part of a truly racist empire.
It’s hardly surprising that there are racial hate groups in America when you consider that racial hatred is the official policy of the United States Government. Our government promotes the hatred of all Muslims as well as Afghans, Iraqis, Palestinians, and Iranians.
- Vermonters should rebel against the racist policies of the United States by calling for the peaceable secession of Vermont from the American Empire.
If Vermont were once again to become an independent republic, it is likely to be overwhelmed by the number of people of all ethnicities moving here. Among other reasons, they will be motivated to escape the racism of the American Empire. Vermont is not a racist state, but America is a racist empire.
Why is it surprising that bullying, harassment, bigotry, and hate crimes take place in our schools? The Pentagon is the world’s foremost global bully engaged in bigotry, harassment, violence, and hate crimes worldwide. The U.S. has over 1,000 military bases in 153 countries.
- Major General Michael Dubie, Brian Dubie’s brother, devotes all of his time to recruiting Vermont bullies into the National Guard so they can become trained killers and bully the people in Iraq and Afghanistan all in the name of freedom.
- If we are serious about bullying and hate crimes, then we must stop the immoral, illegal wars which serve as role models for Vermont’s youth.
As a Native American I am unconditionally opposed to the racism and violence of The American Empire and will do everything in my power to lead Vermont out of the quagmire of death and destruction in Afghanistan, Iraq, and elsewhere.
