As a child of the 60s scoop these are my thoughts about BSM.

I believe as a community we should take some time to pause and reflect based on what’s been presented by the CBC before we cast judgment or come to any sort of solid conclusion.

Critical thinking would require taking what the CBC has presented and finding every way possible to challenge the allegations.

After we’ve done our due diligence as a community which I believe requires us meeting in person and having lengthy debates as well as our own independent investigation we then could share our findings.

82 years of life, 60 as an artist and entertainer requires more thought, reflection and further investigation than a 58 minute documentary presented by CBC.

My statement is to in no way to undermined the work of all of the people involved in the Fifth Estate’s allegations or findings , or to dismiss the Indigenous communities pain and anger but to only encourage people to exercise our critical thinking skills and challenge what’s been presented to us.

Perhaps we’re in no place to exercise these skills because of the anger and the potential betrayal from such a beloved figure to the community.

However with a short pause to collect our selfs I do believe it’s something we can achieve by leading with cool heads and warm hearts.

This is the first painting I ever shared on Instagram. It’s from 2014.

It’s called “ Divided We Remain Conquered “

A fitting painting for 2014 and 2023.

I think we’ve hit a turning point on this Pretendian issue.

For days I’ve watched many people I know on social media and in person, publicly bash and attack Buffy.

They’ve also added their two cents on others‘ social media feeds commenting relentlessly anywhere the issue was being talked about.

I know this because I’ve been quietly observing.

Fast forward to two days later and many of the same people changed their tune after Buffy released her statement. Now they say she is a friend, colleague, a warrior, an icon etc.

We all see you.

We’ve watched you bully, ridicule and judge in the most disgusting self righteous way.

We’ve now also seen how you flip-flop when the community put a foot down for Buffy.

Even some of the loudest mouths of all gave Buffy a pass. Again, we see you.

I’ve watched y’all bully and ridicule for years—destroying peoples lives, kinship, businesses, connection to community all for clout and tickling the social media algorithms.

It’s time you ask yourselves if you are on the right side of this issue.

Have you conducted yourself in a way that you can look back and be proud of?

Is the community looking at you and proud of your contribution?

I can tell you I’m not.

I’m ashamed and hurt by your actions. I find myself not wanting to participate in the Indigenous community. How do I share space, uplift and support people who I watch publicly ridicule and destroy others?

Many of these people I speak of present themselves as being about community, harm reduction, reclamation, decolonization, traditional teachings and ceremony, however, behaviour like this reveals the complete opposite.

It’s like religious folk being awful all week then going to church on Sunday to repent and erase all of the sins of the week.

Your ribbon skirt and ribbon shirts, smudging and ceremony don’t absolve you of this behaviour.

We see you.

Regardless of what the CBC Fifth Estate series reveals, it doesn’t change the fact that the way you’re conducting yourself is shameful.

Some of you might remember over the years I’ve shared my thoughts on this issue.

I’ve always stated I believe we should address it but do it in a way that is mindful of all of the residential school survivors, disenfranchised, 60s scoop survivors, millennial scoopers, mixed folks and everyone in between.

Let’s return to our talking circles, restorative justice circles and in-person ways of communicating in a kind and loving way.

Let’s take it off social media.

Let’s address it in community and in a way that protects the vulnerable.

I am hurt.

I am vulnerable.

I am your brother.

If the Indigenous community put as much time and effort into holding Canada accountable to The 94 Calls To Action as the time and effort spent hunting and gathering Pretendians, Canada would be on Call To Action 93 at this point. Y’all distracted.

Love always,

I gotta share something with y’all!

I’m burnt out!

Iv been going hard with my art for 10 years with very little down time!

As most of you know us
Indigenous artists need to hustle hard to make a living!

Over the last 10 years I’ve done murals, commission paintings, album covers, illustrations, workshops and teaching gigs , installation work and ran a retail store front, online shop and more to make a living as an artist!

Over the last year I’ve simplified everything to focus on running my printing business to stop having to take on so much other work!

Anyway if you need printed T-shirts or apparel, stickers and more , hit me up!!
I’m running a New Year special!

I love y’all!

The Band Office

Acrylic on wood 36 x 48
By Jay Soule aka CHIPPEWAR

Chief, Sammy Standing Proud won, INAC “Chief Of The Year “ and also self-proclaimed “Worlds Best Chief!”

Noticed the trophy with the chief on all fours with the gag ball in his mouth!??
That’s what I imagine it would take to win an award like that from INAC. 🤮

For my American followers ,INAC is the equivalent to, Bureau Of Indian Affairs in Canaduh.

Anddd yes I know it’s not called INAC in, Canaduh anymore but it fit on the trophy nicely!!

Can y’all picture the hilarity that would take place in a spoof like this!!? 🤣
