What Keeps Disenrolled Tribal Members from Pechanga - Chukchansi- Redding- Enterprise From Standing United?

So many people have so much in common, being on the receiving end of violations of civil rights, elimination from their rightful place on tribal rolls, inadequate representation from the Bureau of Indian Affairs.

Yet, each group has only a few members who are vocal, and active. Where are the rest? How can acceptance of stripping us from what is rightfully ours, be good?

Does ANYONE think laying down like a dog is the right way to gain back what is ours? Will PRAYING be enough? Will HOPING be enough? Will WATCHING a few others be the right thing?

How many of the 600 Chukchansi Disenrolled are together in their fight? I only know of TWO and they aren't even together.

How many of the 500 Pechanga disenrolled/moratorium people are together? 60?

Will AIM of the Central Valley stand with those in the south or far north, like Redding and Enterprise? What is the goal of AIM, AIRRO and individuals? Aren't they the same? Why not stand united. One twig is EASY to break, 10 is harder 1,000 will be difficult to break.

All of us who have been damaged by our own tribes need to come together. Who will lead?

Please take this to heart. United we stand, divided we fall. This is so true

So very true. United is one thing, active is another. We can all believe in the same goal, but without more warriors, success is a WHOLE lot more difficult.
