Clan @ MindSay

I waited a while to calm down before I blogged about this.  And before anyone says I am jumping on the current discrimination/reverse discrimination bandwagon, I am not!  I am goign to tell you about what happened to my boy and myself in the past weeks. 

 

This is the defination of Discriminate found in the dictonary.  Please notice the date it was first introduced into the dictonary

 

  Etymology: Latin discriminatus, past participle of discriminare, from discrimin-, discrimen distinction, from discernere to distinguish between — more at discern Date: 1628

Main Entry: reverse discrimination

Date: 1964

: discrimination against whites or males

 

I don't use reverse discrimination when talking about discrimination.  Because simply put, discrimination is discrimination no matter who is doing it.  And on that note let me tell you what has upset me to a point where I am still strongly debating about contacting the Arch Diociese of Omaha and the Accrediation Organization for one of the Tribal Colleges.

 

The first issue was my son.  He didn't get to go down to Omaha to the Joyclin Art Center with his Drum Group.  They gave me a bogus excuse that he was misbehaving during Drum Circle on Monday's and Fridays.  Even the Administrator said that was bogus and if that was the case, then the majority of the boys wouldn't be allowed to go.  The Drum Circle is for all the boys in school, K-8th grade.  And what really torked off Donnie (the school adminstrator) was the fact the priest went along with the Drum Circle Leader on banning my boy from going.  We also came to find out that the lil Kindergardner that wasn't allowed to go either was also banned from going!  He was devasted more so than Coltin because he lives with his Great Grandparents and they don't get out much.  So when I take Coltin on a day trip, we have invited him along so he can go someplace also. 

 

After Donnie and I did a lot of digging to find out the reasons as to why my boy and this other lil boy was banned from going by the Drum leader, it became apparent that it was because Coltin is a full white boy and the lil Kindergardner is 3/4s white.  The Drum Leader is of the Snake Clan.  Now from what I understand of the Snake Clan in the Bago Tradation, is they are NOT Leaders and are NOT to hold any major title and such with in any aspect of the tribe or various tribal workings.  And to be quit honest the majority of them don't they follow tradation as much as possible.  But this particular gentleman decieded that he didn't want a full white boy and a lil 3/4 white boy even though the lil guy is an enrolled member of the Bago tribe to be seen at this fund raiser!  And what I find extermly funny is one of DeLaney's class mates and his older brother's are 3/4s white also even though they look full indian!  How do I know this?  Well their mom is half white and their dad is full white!  But they got to go even though they are the lil trouble makers of the school and the drum circle because they were related to the Drum Circle leader!  Donnie the school administrator is half Omaha and half white so he completely understands why my boy and this lil guy was extermly upset!  He has been discriminated against by non indians and indians alike! 

 

My mom is on her Church Board and informed some of her church members (where my kids also go to mass and is apart of the Mission and the Mission School) and a couple of  the board members (which Donnie is on also) took MAJOR offense to the fact my boy and the lil guy wasn't allowed to go.  A couple of the older members both none indian and indian took it up with their Priest who realized he better take it up with the Head Priest at the Mission.  My boy and the lil guy have yet to recieve an apology but the older indian ladies and the older none indian ladies have managed to convience the head preist who went along with the drum circle leader that he will be coming up with some money so Donnie, his wife, Randy, and I can take Coltin and the lil guy out for a day on the Missioin's Dime.  And my mom rather enjoyed with her older indian lady friend who is the priesdent of the church board in Bago, the dressing down that a 94 year old indian man from the Macy parish gave the Head Priest for allowing the Drum Circle Leader to be out right discrimintory towards two young men of the communities who are both being taught that everyone bleeds the same!  We even had a couple of middle age men and women who are Asian from the Homer Mission Parish get in on the dressing down of the Priests and Drum Circle Leader!  They are donating some treats for our day out when we can get it planned and get the lil guy's great grandparents to agree to it!  Cathy, Donnie's wife and Mission Secratary/School Secratary, and I are more excited for the treats I think!  One of the couples donating the treats owns an Asian Bakery in the city and that is what the treats will be!

 

Now on to what happened to me just in this last week.  The college I have been strongly debating about going to is a Tribal college.  It is accredited and only a two year college but a lot of people both none indian and indian alike go here.  Which means since they are accredited they are held to the same standards as public colleges and recieve public and gov't funding!  Well about 10 years ago they redid the majority of their small campous and when they did this, they included a library.  A library that is also the town's public liberary.  Well my girl Tab and I decieded that we had some time to kill before we pickedu p my kids last week from school to go get library cards and check out some books.  They even had a HUGE sign outside of the building and a smaller sign in the builddingthat said "Public Welcome to Get Library Cards."  Well I picked out a couple of books that I didn't want to buy but wanted to read and attempted to get a library card. 

 

Before I go much further:  "IF YOU IMMIGRATE TO THIS COUNTRY GREAT!  PLEASE PLEASE BEFORE YOU TAKE A COMMUNITY SERVICE OR CUSTOMER SERVE TYPE JOB, LEARN TO ENNOUCEATE YOUR WORDS WITH YOUR ACCENT!  IT DRIVES ME AND YOU BATTY WITH ME OR YOU CONSTANTLY ASKING WHAT THE OTHER IS SAYING!"  Thank you!

 

The lady refused me a library card!  I asked her why.  She left the station and went into the Library Director's office and came back and asked me a seris of questions. 

 

 Are you an enrolled member of any Indian tribe? 

 

Me:  Do I looke indian to you?

 

yes.

 

Me.  Well, no I am not indian nor am I an enrolled member of any tribe.

 

Do you work in Bago?

 

Me.  No.  Why.

 

I can not give you a libary card then.

 

Me.  Why?

 

Because you are not a indian and you do not work in bago.

 

me.  my kids go to school here and i live on one of the two reservation communities and have my entire life minus a few years.

 

I am sorry.  The library is for only enrolled members of tribes and for none indians who work in bago.

 

Me.  I see so your discriminating against me due to the fact i am not indian and i do not work in bago is that correct

 

Yes.  I am sorry and I actually don't agree with it.

 

Me.  Then I guess I won't be going to school here next year like I was planning on it.  Thank you.

 

My girl Tab is enrolled member of the Omaha tribe.  She heard the by play of what happened.  Put her book down and walked into the Director's Office and promptly told them off for being bigets, racists, and assholes.  And that she was also thinking about returning to school to the college next year when I did and now she will NOT and she will also inform the Omaha Tribe of how the Bago Tribe is NOW discriminating against EVERYONE and not just Omaha people.  And walked right on out, while the director of the library was trying to inform her that she was more than welecomed to recieve a library card.

 

I was LIVID!  I calmed down a few days later and when I did, I contacted teh President of the newly elected Bago Tribal Council and informed them what was going on up at that college.  I also contacted the CEO of a major Tribal company and left a message.  I know the CEO through our family's even though I don't know him personally.  His assistant got back to me took down what happened and Lance passed on his thoughts and what happened to the Tribal President also and the College President.  See the CEO is half white and is also enrolled in the Bago Tribe.  He gets it both ways like Donnie the school administrtor that my kids go to school at.  The Tribal Council President knows my mom so she went and talked to my moms.  Got some input there and then called me that evening.  The College isn't going to like some of the new policies that the new president of the tribal council is going to suggest.  Meaning if it says open to the Public it is going to mean the entire reservation communities public!  Indian, White, Black, Asian, Hispanic, Purple, Pink, or Blue!  And if they can't take everyone's money for a library card then the sign will come down that says Public welcomed and go back to being just a Tribal College Library for the students only!

 

See discrimination happens to all races by all races.  There is NO SUCH THING as reverse discrimation.  Stop using words that men have put int he dictonary that means the same thing for all races! 

First let me get this out of the way real fast:  You don't like what I have to say or blog about, don't fucking bother coming to my blog cause this one is going to be harsh hitting on anyone who torked me off in the last 24 hours till this morning.

 

Second, if your an idiot, greedy, selfish, dumbass, and dont' like what I have to say too fucking bad!  The truth hurts!  Just ask my hubby!

 

Third, if you talk smack about my sister (clan sister), remember, I may not live in her area of the US and she may not be bitching about anything, BUT I always find out and you best be running scared because once I get my bills settled up I will come for a visit and YOU won't like me!

 

Okay, can ANYONE explain why everyone thinks stay home mom's don't have shit to do?  Seriously?  I took a couple of days away from the house and folks tried bitchign to me about it.   I wasn't HOME!  GET OVER IT! I baby sat my girl Tab's baby to give her old man a break.  Men can't handle staying home like women.  Women usually snap after at least a year maybe two, every man i know that stays home with their kids or single dad snap with in the first 3-6 months and needs a break.  Wusses! 

 

Anyway, my hosue is slowly but surely getting back to the way it was before my surgery.  I still have to paint the ceiling in my kitchen, finish priming my hallway, move the coffee table and one end table up to my bedroom to make room in my house for thanksgiving and do you think I get any help?  NO!  This is on top of running the kids here and there.  They have been pills lately because their dad has been gone so they got themselves grounded from taekowndo this week.  No skin off MY back.  I have gotten a lovely week home in the evenings minus last night because they had CCD class.

 

I am trying to get ready for winter and dealign with issues with the propane company.  Fucking new ppl in the office best get informed how their accounts are run otherwise I'll take my 600-1000 dollar a year business to your competetor!  Threatening lil girls fresh out of highschool or in college doens't float my boat but fuck with my heat for this winter I'll tear ya a knew one!  I am getting my tank filled either today or tomorrow. 

 

Then Randy.  Don't get me started ON RANDY.  Why are men such idiots!  The dipshit hasn't been home in two weeks, knows I am in a bad need of a break, the kids and I both miss him, and we have to finish up wintirizing the house before it actually gets cold enough where I have to turn the furnace on!  And what does that DIPSHIT with no common sense do to set me off last night and this morning?  LET ME TELL YOU!

 

The actual foreman on the job is also a farmer.  And his wife does the majority of the work and they hire in some help for planting and harvesting.  Randy is tech in charge of the project because the "farmer" doens't want to be a foreman just an electricition and Randy is doing all his work plus the farmers!  Is it MY problem or Randy's problem that Farmer Brown is a sucky ass electriction or a sucky ass farmer?  NO!  So what does my shitty ass hubby agree to do for Farmer Brown who can't run a farm and can't control workers for the project and pawns it off on Randy?  Randy agrees to forgo one of his days off so dumb ass Farmer Brown can get back to the home area and help with harvesting!  WITHOUT TALKING TO ME!  WITH OUT ASKING ME IF IT WAS OKAY!  And wonders why I WENT THE FARK OFF ON HIS SCRAWNY WHITE ASS!  Randy realized after I said dont' bother coming home for one fucking day, thinking I am going to cook for you, clean for you, do your laundry and have you say your too fucking tired to do anythign around this house or with your kids and your wife and then ahve you turn around and run to the job office and shop for your work!  STAY THE FUCK AT THE DAYUM HOTEL IF YOU CAN'T LEARN TO PUT YOUR FAMILY BEFORE SOMEONE ELSE OR YOUR JOB!  IT IS NOT MY FAULT FARMER BROWN IS A PART TIME FARMER AND A PART TIME ELECTRION AND IF HIS FARM GOES UNDER NOT MY PROBLEM!  HIS WIFE CAN CALL IN HIS GROWN ASS KIDS TO HELP OUT THEY ALL LIVE INT HE AREA!  YOU MY DUMB ASS HUBBY HAVE SMALL CHILDREN AT HOME AND A WIFE THAT WON'T PUT UP WITH STUPID ASS BULLCRAP!

 

Then dipshit thought he would get away with negoiating tomorrow off and coming home tonight, going to IA for a night and taking Sunday off.  HOw the hell is he suppose to take time for his kids when they are in school the full fucking day tomorrow?  That is a man's reasoning right htere!  He finally got wise to the fact if I even heard his voice this morning he was going to get an earful and I told him he best figure something out to take a full two days off with OUT going up to the shop on one of them to get equipment or he can stay the fuck away from me, file divorce, and have me up at his job office raising some massive hell about how if Farmer Brown takes away from my family one more time that I will file a labor board complant over the hours Randy puts in!  And if he didn't want to be home with us just tell us because I don't need him.  I will have the majority of his check for child support and at least 9 years of alimony plus NE has a lil by law in divorce that non custiodal spouse has to pay 1/3 of the day care while custiodal parent is at work if one should push for it and you all know I would; all on top of alimony and child support! 

 

So we went from the phone to im's so I could yell at him in CAPS .  The man wisely told Farmer Brown that if he didn't take a full two days off that he would be a 2 timed divorced broken and beaten man and that if they couldn't get the owner to come down Monday to cover for Farmer Brown that Farmer Brown couldn't go home to harvest.   I got a call from the owner of Randy's company in charge of this project informing me he would be down at the job site on Monday to cover for Farmer Brown and that Randy will have TWO FULL DAYS off.  I informed owner he best get his shit together because I am getting down right onery and if I have to I will sue the company for emotional, mental, and physical strain on my children and myself for having their dad gone for over 7 months when he was orginally hired for "occasional travel".  Owner went SHIT and said we will get him home soon I promise!  I told him don't make me any promises you can't keep son cause I'll take the food right out of your babies mouth to prove mypoint to you and yours about taking time and money from me and mine!

 

While Randy and I were negoiating okay me telling him what days he will be home the rest of the month minus his normal days off, I got a pm checking on me from serveral of my clan members and some really good friends.............for ms dipshit talk crap about my sister and any of her body parts again when you can't even take care of your own biz concernign your family, you will find out why I am rarely called in to handle anything with the tuatha!  I am fucking mean, don't put up with bullshit, and tell you the fucking truth about how you are acting and I dont' give a RATS FUCKING ASS WHO YOU ARE IN THE TUATHA!  And I hold grudges for a LONG TIME and even if I ease up on maybe letting the offense go, I DON'T FORGET AND YOU GET PUT UNDER MY MICROSCOPE FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE IN THE TUATHA!  You all think my brother is a bad ass, but remember my brother is my baby brother and if you piss him or my sister off, hurt them with words or actions, or are an idiot to even think of going after my baby girl in any form with your jelousy, greed, and your lack of self esteem YOU GET TO DEAL WITH ME! 

 

The only folks that have been on my good side last night and this morning so far are; my kids, my folks, and my girl tab and her man joe.  They don't have a phone to get a hold of me and I promised them to borrow my vaccum today and give them a tub of burger to get by till next pay day because Tab had to get her gas turned back on due to the weather turning colder!  I have no way of getting a hold of them to tellt hem I will be in later instead of first thing in the morning and they aren't calling and bitching nor are they worried about me not doing what I said I would do. 

 

I am feeling pissy, depressed, frustrated, hurt, and down right mean today.  Mind your manners or leave me the fuck alone!

We went to the Buffalo Zoo today, we saw many different animals but I thought I would post a few pictures for the Bear Clan, you know who you are~
