"I sat in on the first two non violent action trainings brought into the camp to help teach protestors how to "de-escalate" even to the point of pulling young men (warriors) aside and chastising them (gently of course) for their anger. They were also told not to wear bandanas over their faces but to proudly be identified. A chill went up and down me."

For media sensation and photographs that will travel the globe, those at the helm of the non-profit industrial complex ensure that publicly, Indigenous Peoples most always appear in the forefront – all while strategizing behind closed doors to take leadership. When they cannot do so, they vacate the movement, work to marginalize and if possible bury, the legitimate work they were unable to take over. The 2010 People's Agreement (Cochabamba, Bolivia), led by Indigenous peoples, is an excellent example of just this. The white man has proven incapable of involvement if he is not soon in charge. He has proven himself incapable of following, learning, listening… standing behind. Keeping his mouth closed. The ugly reality is that these are racist, fascist organizations, only there to protect current power structures and count bodies. Social media metrics are far more important than disposable people.

"The monetization of Earth's remaining natural resources (or "natural capital," the carefully applied term that acts as a patina masking the true intent) sounds as though it is far too vile of an idea to ever be accepted by society. Yet, the elite establishment – with the non-profit industrial complex as their pimps of pathological ideologies – have every intent of seeing the commodification of Earth's remaining natural resources transform into capital, for complete corporate capture in the not-so-distant future."

"It begins with a real movement, which is why it is so important to expose the phony foundation and millionaire funded movements that claim the mantle of social and political change. CREDO, MoveOn, SumofUs, Avaaz, all these “clicktivist” campaigns are not about radical empowering of citizen democracy, nor are they about organizing to make the changes we need. They are marketing organizations that funnel energy back into electing status quo politicians. People need to stop looking up, and start looking around. Remember the old adage, if the people lead, the leaders will follow."
