Stop Violence Against Indigenous Women
this is something that touches me deeply and personally. The statistics mentioned in this video are horrendous. I know lots of women who have to deal with violence and one who was killed. Something has to be done about this and if you're reading this be aware that April is Sexual Assault Awareness month.

Tags: crazy entertaing" I don't know if these "kids" were actual Natives or ignorant Caucasians acting like fools. What messages are they portraying when they act out stereotypical media stunts of what they thought to be "Indian."
Club Native
I really like the animation used in this very short clip (:58 secs) demonstrating amount of Indian blood. The explosion of interviews and their personal experiences with their own blood amount. I thought it was very effective.

March Point trailer
I would love to meet the ones who made this documentary happen. The young men in this film seemed to show sincereity and honesty. They just needed someone or something to ignite the passion for something bigger than themselves and it was whole-heartedly seen through the lens. Thank you to the person with the torch.

RASH
I'm interested in graffiti art and somehow learning more about the culture. I know graffiti isn't all bad it just has a bad reputation. I took a graffiti workshop once and was very interested in how to make my own work some day. Well, I think that day has come. I just purchased my first set of graffiti caps and I'm also going to purchase how to books. I can say I'm a great artist and I'm lucky to have a son who is also a magnificant artist so I would like to open and explore the culture with my son. He loves drawing with markers. Maybe...just maybe my son will be good at graffiti too. I just hope that he doesn't get any ideas about tagging our walls at home...

revolutionizing reservations with the Savage Family
I'm very interested in other Natives going back out to Native communities and bringing something that can help. They're a rap/hip hop group and this genre reaches alot of Native youth and if the message is right than I think it will help. To know that there is someone out there doing something to bring up others is right on in my book. I hope I can do something with video productions. Keep on trekking!!!
