COLORADO AIM CALLS FOR BOYCOTT/PICKETS OF GIBSON FILM
The American Indian Movement of Colorado is calling for a boycott of the Mel Gibson film, "Apocalypto," due to its blatantly racist, anti-indigenous theme and message. Colorado AIM urges all people of goodwill to refrain from giving the bigot Gibson any profits from this film. Instead, Colorado AIM urges its members and allies to send the $20-30 that you might spend on attending the film to the following groups who work with Maya communities that are in active struggle for their survival and resurgence:
Chiapas Support Committee (www.chiapas-support.org) P.O. Box 3421 Oakland, CA 94609 (510) 654-9587
Café Rebelion ((www.caferebelion.com) 381 E. 55th Avenue Denver, CO 80216 303-744-7343 (working directly with Maya coffee and honey cooperatives)

The Australian Prime Minister, John (racist) Howard wins elections by playing the race card. Racism (and cowardice) are ingrained deep in the Aussie psyche; astute politicians utilise these national characteristics as the need arises.
Is the Australian Mel Gibson able to divest himself of his background -- it would seem not. Kick the racist prick in the teeth for me too, I live in that conservative hell-hole down under; but not for long .. if Howard wins the next election I will burn my passport in public and cross the Tasman to New Zealand or to the Islands where there is still some fight left in the INDIGENOUS people.
Down with racist conservatives everywhere. Btw, is Gibson comfortable living in the USA with his Oz racist character?

Especially the part where the priest is standing on top of the pyramid and laughing - having just fooled his sheeple into believing in the smoke, mirror, and eclipse act.
If it wasn't accurate, correct me - and tell us where it wasn't.
