Red Power Progressivism: A Biography of American Indian Rights Activist Zitkala Ša
digpodcast.org/2024/05/19/red-power-progressivism-a-biography-of-american-indian-rights-activist-zitkala-sa/
In 1923, Zitkala-Ša, a Dakota woman, wrote an unpublished essay titled “Our Sioux People,” tracing the U.S. government’s relationship with the tribe. She described a scene where delegates from the Pine Ridge reservation met with Mr. E. B. Merritt of the Bureau of Indian Affairs in Washington, DC. Zitkala-Ša quoted: “through all the pathos of their sad story, the sight of thier gaunt faces, their cheap and shabby civilian clothes which bespoke their poverty more than words, Mr. E. B. Merritt, Assistant Commissioner sat unmoved in his luxurious office, where walls were hung with brigh...

    The Dutch governor of Manhattan, Willem Kieft, offered the first bounty in North America for Indian scalps in 1641, only 21 years after the Puritans landed at Plymouth Rock. The Massachusetts Bay Colony first offered $60 per Indian scalp in 1703. The English and the French introduced scalping to Indians. The governors of the colonies instituted scalping as a way for one Indian tribe to help them eliminate another tribe, and to have colonists eliminate as many Indians as possible. In an article for The American Historical Review, Benjamin Madley wrote in 2015, “Policymakers offered bounties for Native American heads or scalps in at least twenty-three states of their colonial, territorial, or Mexican antecedents

    Positive idolatry is heaping undeserved praise upon the object of worship; the idolater is conveying an excessive amount of reverence for the object that way; the object is given more value than is supported by reason/truth or ruled fair/just by an Inerrant Judge. Negative idolatry is heaping excessive shame upon the object; now the idolater is conveying a deficit of reverence for the object; the object is given less value than is supported by reason/truth or ruled fair/just by an Inerrant Judge. Burning an effigy is an example of negative idolatry. By doing so, all those who support the ritual are basically telling themselves that the effigy-object no longer is worthy of any of their sympathetic regard; and so, should the object be encountered in real life, they may safely be ignored or even destroyed if necessary. It's a psychological trick to ease consciences that may otherwise be inflamed. In a place called Bohemian Grove, they engaged on an annual basis in negative idolatry as well when they burned an effigy of Care, in a ritual called Cremation of Care. Hence, after that, care was unworthy of being given any positive regard. You could call it a tool to promote a psychopathic mindset.

I love historic humor, unfortunately, I think it's a limited audience. I live two miles from Missouri on the Kansas side, and have traveled to many of the boarder war sites. The Marais Des Cygnes Massacre Site is a special place to visit. It's remote, and the actual location where the killings took place is precise. The skirmish of Island Mound in Bates County is interesting because it was the first time that an African American regiment engaged the Confederates. Also, Ang Lee's Ride With the Devil is a great look into the boarder war. Awesome movie. Go Jayhawks. KU.

    We still have elements of couverture today. We do not allow children under 18 to make business contracts, just like women were denied in the past. But why do we do this? Do we want to oppress our children? Is that our motivation? No, I think very few parents want to oppress their children, we deny them equal economic rights to protect them. To protect them from being cheated by the unscrupulous and other unpleasant consequences if their business contracts go wrong. So what were the consequences of failed business deals in historical times? Depending on the era and the person you owed money to it could include branding, disfigurement or sometimes death. In the time under discussion it included debtors prison. You would be imprisoned until your debt was paid, including fees for your detention. As you picture this in your imagination, do not think of the prisons we have today. No, think of the worst third world prison you have ever heard of. A large cell containing the worst people of that time - the crooks, the mentally ill and the most violent in society all in one communal cell. The jailors were perhaps the worst of the lot - people with total power over the inmates. There was no organised food supplied, nor water, nor sanitation. No medical treatment and no protection. What would be the fate of a single woman detained under these conditions? How would the warders and the other prisoners treat her? How long would she be able to survive the abuse and how would it affect the rest of her life, once her debt was paid and she was released? How can you as a husband, father, brother protect her from this fate? By removing the risk and by making any contracts she made unenforceable on her, but enforceable on you. If she ran up debts, he would be held accountable. He would have to pay them or go to debtors prison. He would take on the responsibility. Couverture was it imposed to oppress women, or protect them? You make up your own mind.
