- Dear Friend:
- Thank you for your thoughtful letter. I appreciate your sharing
- with me your ideas about an issue that is important to you and to
- many others.
- At this time in our nation's history, many of the decisions
- facing the President are complex and challenging. Your views, and
- the views of other individuals who take the time to write, are
- carefully considered when the President makes a policy decision.
- Thank you again for writing. I am grateful for your support
- and for your interest.
- Sincerely yours,
- Hillary Rodham Clinton

- was to bag up everything but the day's random sample and send all
- the rest to the dump."

- MARCO THE WALKER
- an Interview with the Prime Anarchist
- by David Fischer. May 1993
- from Infinite Onion magazine.
- Issue 8
- Today Marco the walker is in Washington DC doing some advance activism
- for the walk which is right now in Columbus, OH. They expect to arrive
- in DC October 7th. There is a homeless occupation from October 3rd to
- November 3rd (election day) and also Veterans for Peace are on a 42 day
- hunger strike on the capitol steps. Another walk that's meeting Marco's
- walk started in Panama. Also there are many caravans, runs and walks
- throughout Turtle Island. Most are expected to converge on the Nevada
- Test Site... which rightfully belongs to the western Shoshone people.
- AIM is calling for October 13th to be "unplug America" day. Marco
- is hoping that everyone will spend the whole day riding a horse, reading
- a book, walking around or just relaxing. No appliances please, and
- hopefully at least no television.
- HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN WALKING?
- I joined up on February 28 in Black Mesa, AZ.
- DO I NEED TO ASK WHAT COMPELLED YOU? YOU'RE GRINNING.
- I was in a sweatlodge ceremony and Husky Tso came in for the 3rd
- round sharing info about the walk. He spoke to me in prayer and I
- found myself dropping everything else in my life to begin my walk
- from Arizona to DC.
- WHAT IS THE WALK ABOUT?
- We are people from all the 4 colors from all the four directions
- gathering to speak out against the last 500 years of genocide,
- repression, racism and continued injustice toward my native American
- brothers and sisters. Being a black Russian Jew, a white Russian Jew
- and a Swedish Christian, I have nothing but compassion for the
- victims of the last 500 years of American holocaust. There is nothing
- I can do about the past except smile warmly and say sorry; but for
- the future I will not tolerate another 500 years of this shit. Not
- while I'm around anyways.
- WHAT'S A TYPICAL RESPONSE WHEN YOU DRIFT INTO TOWN?
- Wow. A typical response. I hate picking on rednecks, but there's been
- a few in every town we went to through OK, KS, NB, SD, IA and IN.
- "Where are you walking to?" they say as we hand them a flyer that
- says we're walking to DC.
- "What are you walking for?" they say as they read the only 2
- paragraphs that describe why we walk. After we tell them about it,
- they usually just say "Wow, that's a long way." We ARE seeing a lot
- of people waking up everywhere though. Today Elad and I had an Amway
- looking guy tell us our presence took him back to his younger days
- when he drove around in a VW bus during college. We figured that was
- before he met Tom Hayden and Jerry Rubin and found he could get himself
- lost in network multilevels and stuff. Our convoy made him late for
- his appointment. Who knows maybe he'll tell his boss where to stick
- it and we'll see him in short little dreadlocks throwing his shampoo
- bottle from the world trade center or something.
- IS THERE A CONNECTION TO BIG MOUNTAIN? WHAT IS IT?
- CRAZIEST STORY?
- WHAT CONVINCED YOU TO JOIN THE aRMY AND WHAT CONVINCED YOU TO GET OUT?
- WHERE WERE YOU WHEN THE RIOTS STARTED?
- WHAT IS THE FUEL OF THE REVOLUTION, IS IT RICE?

- What you may have quietly by love?"
- "Why will you destroy us who supply you with food? What can
- you get by war? We can hide our provisions and run into the
- woods. Then you will starve for wrongdoing your friends. Why
- are you jealous of us? We are unarmed and willing to give you
- what you ask, if you come in a friendly manner."

- Not even knowing your name,

- And your voice just the same.

- I sit lingering one more moment,
- Wishing you'd look my way
-
- Just once more-
- So I can memorize
- your eyes.

- AN OPEN LETTER TO GANNETT CORPORATION:
- from Prime Anarchist
-
- Two weeks ago this very day, you ran a review of a book about
- Hopi people in one of your many southern New England newspapers.
- I was very excited to see it but quite let down as Nancy Hall
- had barely scratched the surface in her review.
- I'll bet it's got more to do with how much you allowed your
- paper to GRANT HER than her ability to write a great story about
- some really profound, prolific and precious people.
- I lived on the Navajo reservation for 2 years in the 90's and
- went to Hopi at least twice a week to play my guitar for tips --
- my only income those years to help my army severance pay last
- more than the expected six months.
- Not to be rude, but you people under Gannett, I'm sure you know
- all ABOUT severance pays; and I'm sure relocation too - an issue
- close-to-heart dear to the Hopi people.
- These things and a whole lot more were never mentioned as Nancy
- Hall's story ran your gantlet.
- I'll leave you with a beautiful legend that "wandered" around
- while I was herding sheep, chopping wood, and hauling water for the
- elders.
- Everyone knows why there's a Nazarene Church in Hotevilla, AZ today,
- but I'll tell you just in case.
- Long ago in Northeastern Arizona every other Mission attempt
- had resulted in a church burning down - and everyone from Baptists,
- to Mormons, Assembly Of Gods, "even the bornagains," kept going home
- and giving up. The fires weren't arson. Hopi would pray 9 days for
- lightning whenever newcomers showed up, including the missionaries.
- If lightning struck a newcomer, that was a sign they weren't in the
- right place.
- There are no records of suspicious fires in Hotevilla, AZ but if
- you read back in papers a couple hundred years, there is some level
- of truth to the lightning fires.
- Now when Church of the Nazarene was building their House of Worship
- and planning their inter-denominational services - the Hopi elders were
- all praying for lightning. Except one. Thomas Byanyca's grandfather,
- I forgot his name - was it David? I hope so.
- He was meeting in Kiva with a Nazarene elder. There were snakes,
- corn, children, crosses, Bibles, even Navajo sand painting around.
- "This Massau," the Nazarene elder said, "you worship him - he reminds
- us a lot of our Jesus of Nazareth, for we've studied your people's
- ways a little bit."
- "Yes," said the Hopi elder, "perhaps they met each other in 0073 AD.
- We dance a ceremony with the Tibetan monks every hundred years about
- that one. Your Jesus, this son of David reminds us a lot of Massau who
- Creator sent in the only form we humans can know and recognize."
- Well to make a long story short the Nazarene elder asked "Chief"
- David if they minded a Nazarene mission there.
- "So long as you're always respectful from all directions," said the
- Hopi elder. "Our mission has been waiting here for more than 3,000
- years."
- That's about all I can say for now except that I have seen with my
- own two eyes that we truly ARE all of us related; and this "vision"
- leaves a long lasting smile on my face.
- Thank you Nancy Hall for pulling this out of me.
- And thank you Gannett Corporation (you too, Rosylyn Carter!!!)
- For pissing me off.
