Recent jubilation of American nationalism has challenged our united and indivisible clause lately. There are multiple discussion inquiries and debates about the founding of this nation going on right now and these can be insightful. Trying to read into what the people composing the founding documents really meant, is similar to biblical interpretations. Thereby giving such an atmosphere of reverence for the documents like the Declaration of Independence. Which, they have yet to revise and remove the words “Merciless Indian savages”.
The reality is that Iroquois confederation of the Haudenosaunee were the creators of the framework that we call our constitution. They have a unique history that gives meaning to the purpose of each branch of governance. They gave women the distinct honor of removing any sitting political leader.
So many changes and so few years of global peace. The beauty pageant Queens must be disheartened. It might be true that many people are expecting WWIII these days, but there is also a possibility that this third conflict might be less bloody and more spiritual. Energetically to win the hearts of our nation’s leaders and see them reframe the policies and procedures of modern capitalistic ambition. One that feeds everyone and ensures basic needs above profits.
The perfect union is an idea that has yet to be realized. Perhaps perfection is always in the making, but we can be sure that doing nothing will just keep us treading the path of destruction that we currently find ourselves. The perfect union will require the efforts of everyone and even though most of us think that other people are out for themselves, we must recognize that our common strength is to rise to the challenge. It is one of the American Cultural traits that does have some consistency.
Reflected in our music and movies is always the resiliency to push forward. America represents a great deal of excess and self-indulgence. Yet, we hold collective ideas of justice and moral exceptionalism. These are the core ideals of What makes us Americans collectively and we can trust that when we decide to do the correct thing, so will our fellow Americans. I appreciate every one of you for the love that you bring into the world. Tlazokamati ¡Gracias!
