Recently at a Q&A, the chair asked me an excellent question: Why do you push so hard against the idea of a ‘nature cure’ when moments in your book Drystone - A Life Rebuilt might look like exactly that?
The answer is simple.

These findings come just 7 yrs after the tribe was formally recognized by the #US govt, bolstering its efforts to reclaim its ancestral #land. The tribe has nearly finished closing deals to reclaim ~2,100 acres of land that was once theirs.
Experts from St. Mary’s College matched old documents with the oral histories passed down for generations by the #Rappahannock tribe, including Richardson, who’s the 4th generation of her family to serve as the tribe’s chief & took over in the late 1990s.

Then this summer, they came upon items on land the #Rappahannock Tribe has been working to reclaim. The archaeologists are now revealing their discoveries of roughly 11,000 artifacts — some dating to the 1500s — ranging from tiny beads & shards of pottery with detailed markings to pieces of stone tools & pipes.
It was physical proof of the Rappahannock towns & villages that #JohnSmith had described.

“ #Indian people have long known of the #land & our #history & presence here,” said Anne Richardson, chief of the roughly 300-member #Rappahannock Tribe, which is primarily in King & Queen County. “But so often things aren’t considered ‘real’ until they’re found or ‘discovered.’ This validates what we’ve long known.”

The joy of a #farmer is to see a bare #land becoming productive but the joy of a #humanitarian is to see the Empty Stomachs getting filled. We're happy that our #crops are thriving at the same time happy that the empty Stomachs are getting #filled

Moin Liebe Fedinauten. Kennt ihr die Kulturland Genossenschaft ? https://www.kulturland.de

To maintain the process of perpetual accumulation requires massive quantities of cheap #labor & cheap #nature. You have to deny people control over their #land, & deny #workers access to the yields of their #production.
