Banner of Corpses Video Project

So I'm currently working on a video project called, "Banner of Corpses." its about the Jewish Holocaust and the Native American Genocide. The lyrics are by a psychic lady, the Great Loudini from Denver, CO. I did the music and I'm currently writing the script. And yes, I'm also going to direct and film the video.

These kind of subjects are almost always overlooked. Why? Maybe we choose to let go and forget the past. But what we need to understand is that history does and will repeat itself.

This project is a major history lesson. And it should be shared not stored away. Everyone needs to know the truth and to learn tolerance among different ethnicities. And yes, racism is alive and breeding in today's society. I have been a victim to racist remarks, and even threatened for being Native American.

Just recently in my hometown of Farmington, NM, 3 white supremacists branded a mentally retarded Native American with a swastika and wrote racial remarks all over him and let him go back onto the streets. I have been saying for years that Farmington is a racist community. What better way to support my claim are acts like this that go on.
I do know that the door swings both ways, but I don't recall any Native American branding a non-native with native designs intentionally to harm or degrade an individual.

Going back to the Banner of Corpses project, many people don't realize that Hitler was a student of history. He studied American Indian policy to model his "Final Solution." not to mention he followed an American writer named, Madison Grant who wrote a book in 1916 called, "The Passing of the Great Race." which talked about weeding out the weaker races for America. Also, American President, Teddy Roosevelt, created the Hereditary Commission to promote breeding of good families and sterilized the unfit poor communities and ethnic groups in 1906.

I could go on and on, like with subjects like "Manifest Destiny" and Thomas Jefferson's "Indian Removal Act" which Hitler used to remove Jews from German areas but I would be boring you. So what better way than to try and show it visually with a music video?
I know that after this project is done, I might be criticized and maybe singled out but I'm merely restating the truth. As a Native American, I am proud of my ethnicity. I love all of my fellow human beings. We may be different, but we are one. The Human Race.

Music is an universal medium. We all speak it. Hear it, and learn to tolerate differences.
