Continental Indigenous Uprising 

Fall Equinox 

Thursday September 22, 2022

 

O'otham Jeved - O'otham Nations Territories [Phoenix, Arizona] - Moving forward from a ceremony of rectification and cosmetric reference known as the Icuauhtonal Yei Acatl Xihuitl which took place at the Nahuacalli, Embassy of Indigenous Peoples on the summer solstice of June 21, 2015, a delegation of Izkaloteka today have resumed again an inter-generational continental campaign whose purpose is to bring about the definitive end to the Doctrine of Discovery of Christendom (October 12, 1492) as a legitimate construct for the democratic societies in the continent of Abya Yala [Americas].

 

The timing of the campaign coincides with the emergence of the spring and fall equinoxes beginning September 23, 2015 when a Continental Legation of Original Nations of the Great Turtle Island Abya Yala convened in Philadelphia to bring forward to the conscience of the world their determinations on the dehumanizing and illegal perpetuation of the Doctrine of Discovery as fundamental to the violations of Territorial Rights, Human Rights and of the Right of Self Determination of Indigenous Peoples by the all of the American States.

COMPLICITY and COLLUSION:

Violence, Death and Disappearances in Mexico due to U.S.Policies and Funding

The drug war is designed to perpetuate itself. The drug war is built to fuel the drug war, not to stop drug production, trafficking or consumption, not to address real public health issues, but to create these very forms of violence, which require further military intervention.

Submission to the United Nations Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination (CERD) 107th session Submitted by Continental Commission Abya Yala 

 

A comprehensive historical understanding and analysis of the systematic human rights violations against Indigenous Peoples in the Americas [North-Central-South] must necessarily integrate a critical position in regard to the nefarious and racist Doctrine of Discovery of Christendom (October 12, 1492) which continues to be normalized by the successor states across the continent.

The criteria for such a comprehensive historical understanding and analysis of the systematic human rights violations against Indigenous Peoples in the Americas must derive from the Right of Self Determination of Indigenous Peoples, equal to all other peoples. In fulfillment of the mandate for decolonization, the continued normalization of the doctrine of “Internal Colonization” of Indigenous Peoples by the states of the Americas under the so called “Blue Water Rule“ must be denounced as illegitimate and discriminatory.

 

A comprehensive historical understanding and analysis of the systematic human rights violations against Indigenous Peoples in the Americas [North-Central-South] must necessarily integrate a critical position in terms of the international trade policies of the “Corporate Metropolitan States” in competition and systemic collusion over the extraction of natural resources and labor of the Original Nations of Indigenous peoples of the Great Turtle Island-Abya Yala.  As both example and evidence, the “Privileges and Prerogatives Granted by Their Catholic Majesties to Christopher Columbus (1492)” outline the rewards and protections of the initial colonial enterprise of seeking World Trade Organization routes to the Indies on behalf of the European Royalty.  These packages of privilege and profit are institutionalized today via the multilateral international trade agreements such as the recently adopted US-Mexico-Canada Agreement USMCA (2020).

Decolonization and Indigenous Self Determination

United Nations Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination (CERD): Statement of Tupac Enrique Acosta, TONATIERRA

The US government’s claim for jurisdiction over Western Shoshone territory via “gradual encroachment” is based on the legaloid, discriminatory, and repudiated Doctrine of Discovery of Christendom, via Mexico and the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo (1848).  This dimension of the case has not been addressed by CERD.  The only territorial franchise that Mexico may have illegally claimed over Shoshone Nation territory at any time is as a successor state in historical consequence to the purported claims of discovery by Spain under the Papal Bulls of Inter Caetera (1493).

And although the UN Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues issued a repudiation of the Doctrine of Discovery of Christendom in 2010, the underlying issue of the discrimination and denial of the rights of petition articulated in Article 15 ICERD continues with impunity in the UN decolonization protocols.

This must be corrected.

In Response to The Combined Tenth to Twelfth Periodic Reports Submitted by The United States of America Under Article 9 Of The Convention 

And

Early Warning And Urgent Action Procedure Decision 1(68) (Western Shoshone)

Submitted by the Western Shoshone Defense Project

Committee member Patrick Thornberry of Great Britain stated surprise that the United States would cite to Johnson v. M’Intosh, 21 U.S. (8 Wheat.) 543 (1823) and the doctrine of discovery. Mr. Thornberry stated emphatically that the current state of United States law demonstrated basic incompatibility with the Convention. He further stated that the power of treaty abrogation by one side is not fair or right and is inconsistent with the doctrine of indigenous self-determination. He informed the United States delegation that the doctrine of discovery is outdated and the rest of the “enlightened world” had recognized this and was making efforts to reform their laws.

1894 Sioux Nation Treaty Council

Alternative Report to CERD

The Sioux Nation is an Indigenous Nation in the middle of North America.  In 1894, after facing near annihilation at the hands of the United States, the Sioux Nation Treaty Council (SNTC) was established to fight for the enforcement of all the Articles in the 1868 Fort Laramie Treaty.  The people of the Sioux Nation have endured nearly 150 years of racist treatment from the United States within the Treaty Territory.  The 1894 SNTC has been approaching the United Nations for forty years, continuing the quest for liberation and freedom through the enforcement of the 1868 Treaty.  The Treaty Council is presenting this Report as the International Covenant on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination and Article 48/7 of the UN Human Rights Council which was approved in Oct. 2021 advocate for the end of colonization of Indigenous nations.

Chicanaui Yeyan Tlaltekyoliztli: Nine Earth Life-creating positions

 

Chicanaui Yeyan Tlaltekyoliztli

Nine Earth Life-creating positions

On June 21 Earth entered an astronomical position called solstice, the first day of summer. Thirteen days on July 3 Earth is farthest from the Sun. This is called an aphelion. Between the solstice and aphelion is when the Tlalocs are honored.

Summer ends and Fall begins with a position called equinox, when day and night are of equal length. Thirteen days later Earth enters an equihelion position, when the distance between Earth and Sun is the same as it will be 13 days after the Spring equinox.

Fall ends with the Winter solstice, the birth of Huitzilopochtli. Thirteen days later Earth enters her closest position to the Sun. This called a perihelion. Spring begins with the next equinox. Thirteen days later Earth enters her next equihelion, when the distance between Earth and Sun is the same as it was 13 days after the first day of Fall.

Earth’s ninth special position occurs only between the Tropic of Capricorn and the Tropic of Cancer. It is the solar zenith, when the Sun is directly above at noon and objects do not cast a shadow. At Chalchihuites (Zacatecas, Mexico) the zenith and summer solstice happen on the same day.

Xicalli: The Natural Ways of Mother Earth, Father Sky

 

“Don’t call them ‘old ways’ or ‘ancient ways.’ Call them Natural ways. They are not old, they are Natural. They are ways to help us live in harmony with Earth.”

Thomas Banyacya, Hopi elder

 

Understand Creation, her invisible and visible forces place us in a better place to participate with Earth’s Life-giving cycles. Much of the framework to do this was guarded and passed on by our Nahuatlaca ancestors who constructed this knowledge across thousands of years of experience and five centuries of brutal repression by western colonialism.

 

We are coming to the “end” of an important period in Earth’s dance with the Sun, her grandmother Moon, and his sisters the stars. Here is a review within the context of other Natural cycles.

 

Nine days before the Winter Solstice (birth of Huitzilopochtli), Earth begins a significant internal change that prepares her for receiving the solstice sun and eventually use that radiant power to renew that region of Earth, a process which culminates with the Spring equinox (when Tlazolteotl and Meyahuel integrate the forces from above and below for the creation of Life).

 

The nine days of Huitzilopochtli are part of a 13-day cycle before the Winter Solstice. On the ninth day there is manifestation of an integration involving Earth’s tonalli (solar vibration), ihiyotl (gaseos formation), atlachinolli (the electrified forces in water), and teyolia (electromagnetism). This can be detected at the bottom of Earth’s waterways, whose movement is detected and monitored by Tlalzolteotl’s Wolf, of one her animal companions.

 

It is important to note that this 13-day cycle is preceded by a 260-day cycle which began after the first day after the last Spring equinox. In this way, Huitzilopochtli’s birth mirrors a human gestation cycle (260 day of formation and 13 days of internal forces integrating). Thirteen days after the birth of Huitzilopochtli, the integration of those invisible Life-giving forces rise from inside Earth to her surface. It is at this time that Tlazolteotl’s Jaguar brings this force on his head.

 

This Tlazolteotl “season” occurs to the northern half the Earth during December and January and then to the southern half during July and August. It is important to know that this season is manifested in regions, not just the entire hemisphere at once. Our Nahuatlaca ancestors where careful always to identify and begin relationships with the “jicaras” or Xicalli (centers of life) and begin a relationship with the Invisible Forces of those Xicalli.

For our west Texas southern New Mexico community this Xicalli is Hueco Tanks State park.

Indigenous Peoples Peace Initiative

Year 4 Reed, Day Two Crocodile

Wednesday, March 12, 2003

 

O’odham Jeved (Territories of the O’odham Nations) Izkalotlan, Aztlan - Emerging from a three-day traditional gathering of Indigenous Nations and Pueblos, a legation of Indigenous Peoples initiated today a global Indigenous Peoples Peace Initiative intended to restore the principles of "yectlamatcayetoliztli" (PEACE) as a mandate of humanity from the future generations. The proclamation was made from the NAHUACALLI, Embassy of the Indigenous Peoples located in Phoenix, Arizona.

 

"We must disarm the global regime of nationalism of the state. The psychologies of hatred and competition under which the government states of the world would have us sacrifice our humanity and our children to senseless wars will no longer be tolerated. As Indigenous Peoples of the world, we further challenge the government states of the United Nations system to criminalize the destructive impact of warfare upon the ecosystems of the Earth itself, by defining appropriate international legal protocols regarding the conduct of warfare such as the Geneva Convention." Said Tupac Enrique Acosta, member of the Xicano Nahuatl Nation.

 

To implement the Indigenous Peoples Peace Initiative, representatives of the diverse and distinct Indigenous Nations attending the launch of the global campaign, moved out from the Nahuacalli embassy in the Four Directions, with assignments to convoke the traditional spiritual leadership from around the world to engage in the restoration process of Peace and Dignity. The first objective of the Indigenous Peoples Peace Initiative is to make known to the conscience of all humanity that the calls to war by the government states will not apply to the Indigenous Peoples globally, and will not be answered.

 

Instead, the Indigenous Nations of the Great Turtle Island Abya Yala [Americas] propose that the indigenous nation confederations from around the world rise to reclaim the destiny of the future generations, by invoking spiritual and moral authority as the protectors of the Mother Earth. The Indigenous Peoples of this hemisphere have maintained such a spiritual, cultural, and political confederacy since time immemorial. This confederacy is known as the Confederation of the Eagle and the Condor.

 

In terms of communications, the IPPI has implemented a hyperspace linkup, and will be delivering a message to the United Nations representatives of the Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues under the Economic and Social Council on May 15 in New York. The Nahuacalli in Phoenix, Arizona will serve as clearing house for the first phase of the Indigenous Peoples Peace Initiative.

 

Referring to the Xiuhpohualli, the count of years of Izkalotlan, Aztlan which correlates to other counts of calendar systems among the Maya and Nahua Nations, the legation travels now to fulfill an ancestral mandate called the prophecy of the Sixth Sun given on August the 13, 1521 in Mexico.

"It is the dawn of the Sun of Justice. The first rays of light from the East have been seen, they have been felt," said one youth who has made a lifelong commitment to the goals of the initiative. "Now is the time to go forward in a sacred manner. A new world is about to be born."
