White supremacy is the norm in the United States and Virginia. We should not be surprised by it. Situations like the VCI’s (Virginia Council on Indians) actions regarding the Nottaway surprise many people but it should not. Why would the state of Virginia or the United States want to admit (recognize) that there are 600 million Native Americans on the “single” American continent (the single land mass). This would clearly identify the reality that white people are the minority on a continent of 600 million Native Americans. Instead they divide and conquer with borders, recognition processes and false racial identities. All three of these are recognition processes with the intent of maintaining a low Native population. Borders turn most Natives into illegal immigrants in their own homelands. False racial identities, such as Hispanic and Latino, convert Natives into a new race with no roots. What if Indians who speak English were no long Indians but were Hisenglish. Huh?? Our Native brothers and sisters who sit on committees denying other natives recognition are merely uncle Tom’s doing the genocidal bidding of white supremists in exchange for crumbs from the white man’s table. The white people on the committee are merely doing what they have done since 1492, continuing the genocide of our people.

The vast majority of what we accept today as normal and modern is actually white supremacy intended to advance the “hellish” authoritarian worldview brought from Europe. Every person of color who is identified as Native American is another step towards revealing the American apartheid con of white minority rule on an overwhelming Native American populated land. And part of the sham is that states like Virginia have for the most part recognized groups of people as Native American tribes, in the majority of cases, who are merely white people with one drop of Indian blood—the new one drop rule. The Nottaway are brown people of color and thus likely will not be recognized. Just as with the immigration issue, the white people have become the Natives and the Natives have become the “aliens”. Our primary problem is that white supremacy is so ingrained in modern culture that it is seen as normal today, even by people of color. I am Vice Chairperson of a committee for Fort Christanna in VA, where the history of our Saponi reservation was supposed to be told. Instead the story told was one from a white supremacy perspective. Instead of telling the truth of greedy invaders coming to our land and raping, robbing and exterminating, the false picture of a partnership between Indians and “settlers” was painted.

This white supremacy perspective was support by a majority Black Board of Supervisors in a majority Black county. State recognized tribes came and applauded the white supremacy work. Praise and thanks was given for killing our indigenous spirituality and replacing it with Christianity. Yes we must condemn what the VCI is doing and their white supremacy activity, but we must also look at what we each today accept as normal and modern, which in reality is white supremacy. How are you, as a person of color, unknowingly promoting white supremacy and the demise of your own people and culture in favor of a European culture based upon greed, selfishness, violence, corruption, hell, and extermination of the Indigenous World? www.Indigenousway.net. The white supremacy deception being perpetrated on our world is truly the devil’s work.
