Wild, Wild West Board / My Land

My brothers and sisters, my people, the Swayson, we gather here today to speak of a grave injustice. The white man, with his insatiable greed and thirst for land, has cast a dark shadow upon our sacred lands in Washington State. They have broken treaties, stolen our resources, and sought to erase our very existence.
For generations, our ancestors have lived in harmony with the land, respecting its bounty and honoring the spirits that dwell within. But the white man disregards these sacred bonds, driven by a relentless pursuit of wealth and power. They have forced us onto reservations, confining us to barren lands and stripping us of our cultural heritage.
Yet, we are not defeated. The spirit of our ancestors burns within us, a flame that cannot be extinguished. We will reclaim what is rightfully ours, not through violence, but through the power of unity and the unwavering strength of our traditions.
We will seek justice through the courts, utilizing the very laws that have been used to oppress us. We will raise our voices, demanding recognition of our rights and the return of our stolen lands. We will educate the world about our history, our struggles, and our unwavering determination to preserve our way of life.
The white man may have the power now, but the land will always be ours. It is in our blood, in our very souls. We will not be silenced, we will not be forgotten. We are the Swayson, and we will reclaim our rightful place in this world.

Greetings,

Another year of 'Thanksgiving' is upon us. As you fight over the dinner table about which geriatric white man is best to lead this country, I kindly ask you to remember one thing. The land your table sits on was taken from my people, the Swayson Tribe of the Pacific Northwest. You tossed disease ridden blankets at my people as you took them from their homes at gunpoint and promised that they would be safe in new lands. However, countless treaties were broken by the white man and now you celebrate all you have which is all you stolen from us. One day we will get our land back. The land our ancestors walked upon will be delivered to it's rightful people. We will never give up the good fight. Never.

Greetings,


As we begin yet another "Thanksgiving", let us reflect on what exactly this day means. This is the day where my people taught your people how to live off the land. Without our knowledge, you surely would have failed and either passed away from starvation or fled back to your homes across the Atlantic. Not only did you accept our help but you also stabbed us in the back. You made treaties which you didn't honor and gave our women and children blankets soaked with disease. You aren't people of your word. It's time that the Swayson Tribe get back what is truly ours. You stole much of our land here in the Pacific Northwest. We want it back. We want our land back and we want to be reimbursed for all the pain you've caused us. If you do that, we'll learn to coexist side by side. Until then, make sure to tell your kids what this day is truly about as you give thanks for all you have and spend the next day punching people for discounted electronics.

Good afternoon,


As we approach another Thanksgiving, let us not forget what this precious holiday truly represents. As you enjoy your white meat, mash potatoes, and rolls, don't forget the true treachery that you celebrate. My people's land was taken by white men who gave us gifts of blankets covered in disease. Your treaties were nothing more than worthless toilet paper.


You use this holiday to give thanks, watch football, and then go trample one another over discount electronics, a day after being 'thankful for what you have. I give thanks that more people are starting to see what the white man truly did to us. Columbus Day is about to become Indigenous People's Day. Soon, Thanksgiving will be exposed for what it truly is, a day for you to be happy and fat as you drop crumbs on the land of my people.


We will never give up! Never!

My apologies for coming to you later than normal on this horrible week in which you'll celebrate the destruction of our people. As you consume mass amounts of food, think long and hard about all of the atrocities that you and your people committed. As you fight one another on Black Friday for discounted goods, a mere day after giving thanks for what you have, think about the young children that you systematically wiped out by tossing blankets covered in smallpox to help keep them warm. Every year I come forward and bring awareness to this problem that has plagued our land. I will continue this fight so long as the Great Spirit grants me breath. It is my hope that you all will wake up and try to make amends for all of the horrible deeds that you committed against my innocent people.

Greetings,


As you celebrate another year of Thanksgiving, please don't forget what you did to my people as you trample one another for discounted electronics. The Swayson Tribe will have their land restored to them, as sure as the night is vanquished by the Sun. This battle will not end as long as oxygen fills my lungs. I believe that right will defeat wrong. The sins of the past will be on display for the world to see. Stand with my people. You can be on the right side of history. This land belongs to my people. We will never give up. Join me and spread the word that the Swayson Tribe be returned the land that is rightfully ours!

As another year of Thanksgiving is upon us, we ask ourselves are we doing enough to help the Native American people regain what was stolen from  us many years ago. Progress has been made in some aspects, such as the diversion of the pipeline in South Dakota. However, how many issues have still gone unresolved? The Swaysom Tribe will one day get the land that was taken away from them. Our future generations will be able to enjoy the land that our people held for so long. The white man stole it from us but we will regain it. We are united and our cause is just. As you try to enjoy Thanksgiving this year, remember all of the crimes that were committed against the Native American people. I have the utmost faith that we will regain our land and at the Swayson Tribe will reclaim their native homeland. I ask that you take the time to consider being on the right side of history and Unite with us to reclaim all that was taken. We must stand up and take back our land.

Greetings,


I am here to encourage everyone to help my people reclaim the land that was stolen from us. The Swayson Tribe was slaughtered by the white man of Washington, Oregon, and northern California. It is in these three states that our tribe held land and it is now time that we unite to take back what is rightfully ours! We stand with our brothers in Standing Rock and want to encourage everyone to stand tall in the face of adversity. We can reclaim our land and our brothers in Standing Rock can maintain their land and water access. Please if you have some time on this white mans holiday called Thanksgiving, consider helping right these wrongs by writing to your local politicians.

Greetings, as we 'celebrate' yet another depressing year of Thanksgiving, as known as the slaughter of my people by the white man. My people, we taught you how to live off the land and how did you repay us? You took our land, our lives, our children. Anything that you could get your greedy white hands on, you took. It was never yours to take. I ask that everyone think about this as you spend the day with your family. I ask that if you have any bit of dignity left in you, that you will help me and my people reclaim what was so wrongfully taken from us. Please contact your local representatives and let them know that the land of the Swayson Tribe belongs to them and no one else.

Greetings, as we 'celebrate' another year of Thanksgiving, as known as the slaughter of my people by the white man, I feel we must understand just exactly what this holiday stands for. My people, we taught you how to live off the land and how did you repay us? You took our land, our lives, our children. Anything that you could get your greedy white hands on, you took. It wasn't yours to take. I ask that everyone think about this as you spend the day with your family and loved ones. I ask that if you have any bit of dignity in you, that you will help me and my people reclaim what was so wrongfully taken from us.

Why don't other members of your tribe join us here?

Greetings.

I'd like to most respectfully answer your question. My sincere apologies for the delayed response. I am the head of this cause and in kind, I handle the online aspect of it.

I'd like everyone to remember the true meaning of today. While you celebrate the slaughter of my people, I want to remind you all that without the Natives help, the white man wouldn't have survived living on this land.

My people will get their land back and I'm happy to announce that this year, we've made huge gains for our cause.

Hmmmm, long time no see, Chief.

So tell us, how do you love the new forum??  :)

Greetings,

I must admit that I like the new forum however I find that the activity level has dropped on this website. My tribe is considering other forums in which to spread our agenda and hopefully one day be able to give our people some of their land back. I will say that I have no intentions of abandoning this site.

Greetings,


As we approach the Thanksgiving holiday this year, I'd like to take the time to remind people about the injustices raged against my people.

We used to live and use all the land around here and then the white man came and destroyed our people, raping everything that we had. They gave us "reservations"... where those once stood now stand Wal Marts and McDonalds for you to continue to get fat from.

Please take a moment to reflect on the pain caused against my ancestors and the pain that lives on today. Please write your local representatives and demand that justice be served
