STAR WARRIORS / ANANG OGICHIDAAG \ the restorative movement of a war born of love.
Star Warriors is a multimedia stratagem that serves as a battle platform to resurrect those whose souls have been murdered. It is a sanctuary where Native American survivors of child sexual abuse and sexual violence on — and off — reservations can regularly exercise their voice and tell their stories of pain, survival, and triumph. It is also headquarters to developing strategies to forever end the abhorrent violation of Native American minds, bodies, and spirits. BORN OF LOVE, a Star Warriors podcast, is currently in production.
THOUGH YOU HAVE NOT BEEN TREATED SO,
YOU ARE LOVED AND CHERISHED ABOVE ALL THINGS.
YOUR SHAME WILL BE TURNED TO HONOR.
YOUR TEARS OF SADNESS TO JOY.
YOUR FEARS TO COURAGE.
YOUR CONFUSION TO CLARITY.
YOUR DESPAIR TO HOPE.
YOUR TORMENT TO PEACE.
YOUR HATRED TO LOVE.
THOUGH YOU THOUGHT NO ONE HEARD YOUR SCREAMS,
YOUR CREATOR HAS HEARD
AND WILL NOW ANSWER.
YOUR IDENTITY IS NOT five centuries of rape, dehumanization, violation, slavery, indoctrination, assimilation, illegal control, and domination by dark spiritual forces and world powers manifested in the form of abusers of your past and present. Nor is it trauma-induced imprisonment to sex, drugs and alcohol that suffocate your soul in heavy chains of unbearable guilt, destruction, and chaos.
YOUR IDENTITY IS SACRED.
BOLDLY RECLAIM IT.
YOUR VOICE IS OUR WEAPON.
Let this age welcome back the powerful storytelling traditions of long ago, stories that heal and guide, that remind and teach, that empower and save. May your words be the keys that free the innocent from prisons of solitude and silence. May your voice pierce light into the hearts and minds of those lost in the darkness and confusion of sexual abuse and violence. Separate the victim from the attacker by speaking apart the misplaced guilt and shame that self-destroys. Use your story to help the brokenhearted regain the unique and beautiful identity that was stolen from them not only in the individuality of their personal lives, but in the culture of their people in centuries past. Voice atrocity into strength, tragedy into victory, and despair into hope. Sound your war cry in the battle path of justice, so that no other child, nor any other woman, will be marked in a hand print of blood.
Anyone touched by this crisis in any generation is encouraged to come forward and make your voice heard. Survivors, family and friends of victims, social workers, teachers, healthcare professionals, members of law enforcement, government/tribal officials, activists and organizations fighting against these crimes are all welcomed.
