it gets funnier. one centre really needed some understanding from the community. They needed a video-short. so I wrote one based on role reversal; 3 Indians histrionically repulsed by a couple of white people sitting on a park bench, crossing the street in rancid aversion, 2 Natives walking out of a bank after being assisted by a white teller saying "how did SHE get that job? cops busting up a group of white people for talking on the street etc etc. and then....the final O.K. for cheap fucking funding was rejected by a WHITE PRIEST. I love those guys. blah blah. it was more like 2 years. so chocolatedunkins, at least I know why I don't like somebody, hate is abit strong, I save that for US policies (no dots in that acronym)

one Blood group did accept to do a seperate set, no intertwining but at least very late in the night -early morning, there was a very multi-colored rounddance. The concept itself is FUCKING hysterical. Traditional Aboriginal drumming and dancing, with white stomachthumpin funkymetaljazz electric bass, sharing the mike, and whitey joining in with hand-drumming and (big wet dream) traditional dress and dance. So yes the fucked idea of involving a D.J. was included with some of the proposals, because of D.J. Spyne - who spins classic funk(anyone know what this is??Parliament, Bootsy, Sly & family, James, George, Meters, ) that was my attempt at having assistance bringing out the bass and DANCING for a freaking night of transcultural enlightenment.

let me elaborate on how fucking ridiculous this really is. Imagine spending over a year writing hundreds of proposals/invitations/porfolios/resumes to every Tribal Council, Aboriginal Drum/Dance performance-art group, Native Womens Circle, Native Youth Movement, friendship Centre, homeless shelter, teacher of Aboriginal arts & music programs, ETC ETC ETC< from Alberta to Vancouver Island to North west States, of a performance concept and receiving 3 replies - one follow up. Its so hilarious how many pow wows, sweats, centres one can attend (by invitation with tobacco in hand) with no serious consideration ensuing "further discussion."
