Thank you for being part of who I am. Coming to a men’s circle was how my prayer for healing during a difficult time in my life was answered. I didn’t realize until years later, when I looked back and saw my family thriving and how blessed I am, that those blessings were a direct result of that prayer that lead me to the men. I have been fortunate enough to visit teams all across this country. I have visited MUDD (East Bay), Dog Soldiers (Atlanta), DCT (Mid-Atlantic), and Jaw Bone (New England). Eastsiders all day baby, the men of MDI are always in my heart.
The reason for this message is to let you know that I am taking a stand against the injustices I see unfolding against the water protectors at Standing Rock, and I am inviting you to stand with me.
Standing Rock is not just about justice for the First Nations … Standing Rock represents the will to live for the entire human race. It’s easy to say “water is life,” but not until you experience what it is to die slowly of thirst, can you truly appreciate Mni Wiconi – Water of Life.
I pray that our children and our children’s children never experience a slow thirsty death because of the actions or in-actions of our generation.
By taking a stand to protect the water, we are living the code ~ Defend Humanity. Please join me. Find an excuse to actually physically be there.
