Subconsciously our minds are being taken, by an aggressive and educational break in. We’re taught how to use spreadsheets, when the companies who stole from us use the spreadsheets to calculate their profits. We’re taught how to find “x”, When we should be finding our cultural roots, that are covered by the pavement of industrialization. We’re taught how to be consumers, so we consume our history becoming the wolves that tore us apart. To control our minds is to control our land, which was ripped from the humility of our own hand.

Results of a Colonized Mind
Subconsciously our minds are being taken, by an aggressive and educational break in. We’re taught how to use spreadsheets, when the companies who stole from us use the spreadsheets to calculate their profits. We’re taught how to find “x”, When we should be finding our cultural roots, that are covered by the pavement of industrialization. We’re taught how to be consumers, so we consume our history becoming the wolves that tore us apart. To control our minds is to control our land, which was ripped from the humility of our own hand.
