El día de hoy la historia hegemónica y las estructuras de poder celebran Thanks Giving Day o día de acción de gracias. Una de las tantas fechas que rinden tributo al despojo, al genocidio y a la violencia colonialista.
"...forgive me as i cut out your tongue
forgive me as i put you in this powdered wig
forgive me when i put your body in a museum
forgive me of all my sins
for not being a good indian.."
Aquí un poema de Ryan Red Corn que se afirma como un acto constitutivo de la insubordinación , del rechazo a la asimilación como "buenos salvajes".
