Two hundred and nineteen years ago my fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in subjugation and dedicated to the proposition the European men are created superior.

Soon we will be engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation or any notion so conceived and so dedicated can long endure. We are met on a battle field of that war. The original nations have come to claim that field, as a final resting place for those who across this continent gave their lives that their nations might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that they do this.

But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate -- we can not consecrate -- we can not hallow -- this ground. The brave native peoples, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember, what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for their living heirs, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that their nations, upon Father Sun, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by

the people, for the people, shall not perish from Mother Earth.

thank you for the thoughts and honesty

this day is one for rememberance

513 years is the time of my peoples suffering

we will not die or forget

the American people are real in their Hearts

and real in their minds

that is something that governments cannnot take away

columbus still sits on his throne and willes

away his hours

Native looks south and see him still

we will never forget you exploiters and thieves

get ready We are'nt going anywhere

colonialists still roam and lie

line them up and watch die
