I am trying to bring awareness about the Keystone Pipeline and we'll be doing a paper on this issue. I have a few questions if anyone is willing to answer them

Native Americans only please
1 Brief description of your culture, beliefs, values, traditions or other important characteristics of your heritage or community.

Treatment of family
Elderly
Children
The earth
Possessions
Medication
Drugs.
Asking for assistance

2 Explain the culture Clash with non-First Nation people or the United States government

3 population issues
4 what has happened at the pipeline clashes with the government
5 ways the protesters have been oppressed

6 ways the first nations people are oppressed in today’s society

As an ethnic group

Are you made to feel like an outsider because of appearance?
Ignored by government
Hinted you are stupid
Preferred name to be used in the media when discussing issues facing your community
Hinted you must be lazy
Not take you seriously

Questions:


1. You're trying to bring "awareness" of the issue to whom exactly, and with what objective?

2. You're doing a paper on this topic to be presented to whom exactly?

3. When you say "we" are doing a paper, who is "we"?



4. Why are you on an international Christian website trying to survey a tiny ethnic group (which may not even be represented on the site), in great detail, about some political issue which is wholly unrelated to the site, for the purpose of some wholly unknown objective which you have conveniently failed to disclose?




This just couldn't be any more weird.

Really? You know a 61 year old woman, who is no lady, but likes stuffed animals enough to have a photo of one or more as her avatar at all times, and talks about them with full knowledge of even the weirdest thing, like, welll? What's their favorite food? And yet, you think this the weirdest you've seen?


(I'm going to have to try harder, aren't I?)

I thought as Christian we should help each other. Keystone Pipeline is going to be put under a major water source, this should be a concern of every American.

I think people on CC would jump at the chance to help you. But your first post above requested that input be from Native Americans only. Perhaps we need to recruit more Native Americans to post on CC. Just a thought. :)

Are you being paid to do this? Do you have a gofund me account like the other protestors had during the Dakota Access Pipeline?

Thank you Lord for the incredible blessing of oil, and other fossil fuels, You have bestowed on America, and the World. This fantastic resource has been the number 1 reason BILLIONS in the past century have been able to escape poverty and have a good life.

Please bless those who work in that industry to bring us this bounty from You.

This didn't answer my questions.


I gave a list of very specific questions which are still unanswered.

I found lack of support for this issue, so I'm no longer pursuing it. I'm trying to bring attention To a cultural issue to bring before social workers. I have changed the issue to veteran support systems. I thank you for your politeness in your answer. I do not have a go fund me page. This is not about money it's about bringing awareness to an issue facing Americans today
