Fascinating subject today. Listened to it again, because at times it got a bit esoteric for me. I think I get the gist of it, tho, and I do want to understand with more clarity.

    Voices of the Canadian Holocaust Speak to the Pope

    Reverend Kevin Annett who recently returned from his trip to Europe will talk about the first public memorial service ever held in Rome for the victims of Catholic Indian Residential Schools, that occurred outside the Vatican on October 11, has evoked literal storms of change in the Roman Catholic church. Less than a day after the service, a rare tornado struck the center of Rome and the Vatican. Two days later, senior Vatican officials stated privately that they would meet with Rev. Kevin Annett and The Friends and Relatives of the Disappeared (FRD) from Canada to discuss their demand that the remains of children who died under the care of the Catholic church be surrendered for a proper burial. Until the October 11 ceremony, the Vatican had refused to respond to the FRD and its letters to the Pope. One church insider recently informed Rev. Annett that the Curia's willingness to meet with him and the FRD represents "a major admission that genocide went on ... the Pope's back is to the wall on this one." Besides a return of the remains of residential school children, the FRD has called for the Catholic church to surrender the guilty, revoke genocidal papal bulls such as the Inter Caetera of 1493, and appear before an international war crimes tribunal. Held across from St. Peter's Square following the Pope's weekly Sunday service, the October 11 ceremony was officiated by Rev. Annett, who was commissioned by families of the dead and aboriginal elders in Vancouver to hold the service.

    African-Native American Genealogy: Tracing Your Roots, Telling Your Story

    Today we unravel the hidden history of African-Native American people whose genealogy has been obfuscated and often denied. Our informative dialogue may help you trace your roots. Our special guest Angela Y. Walton-Raji is an avid genealogist, who has researched her family history since 1975. Ms.Walton-Raji was born in western Arkansas, raised on the Arkansas/Oklahoma border, in the City of Ft. Smith. In 1991 she located her family records among those of the Choctaw Nation, confirming a relationship often spoken about from family oral history. With this discovery, came the sudden knowledge that her great grandparents were enslaved Africans of the Choctaw Nation who migrated west on the Trail of Tears. Angela Y. Walton-Raji is the author of "Black Indian Genealogy: African American ancestors Among the Five Civilized Tribes. It is known that many Africans intermarried with Native Americans. Less widely known is the fact that many Native Americans also owned slaves, and fathered children with enslaved African women. The Five Civilized Tribes - Cherokee, Choctaw, Chickasaw, Creek and Seminole - owned slaves. In addition there were smaller numbers of Free People of Color who lived in many of the Native American nations and who married persons from those nations, and whose descendants claim ancestry from the Oklahoma Afro-Indian people. As a result, a significant percentage of Americans have African and Native American ancestry.
