Ward Churchill: The Man Needs a Haircut
2005-02-04
This is soo cool.
Even the American Indian Movement is saying: shaddup!

Click on the cartoon link at the bottom of the page.

The American Indian Movement Grand Governing Council representing the National and International leadership of the American Indian Movement once again is vehemently and emphatically repudiating and condemning the outrageous statements made by academic literary and Indian fraud, Ward Churchill in relationship to the 9-11 tragedy in New York City that claimed thousands of innocent people's lives.

Churchill's statement that these people deserved what happened to them, and calling them little Eichmanns, comparing them to Nazi war criminal Adolf Eichmann, who implemented Adolf Hitler's plan to exterminate European Jews and others, should be condemned by all. The sorry part of this is Ward Churchill has fraudulently represented himself as an Indian, and a member of the American Indian Movement, a situation that has lifted him into the position of a lecturer on Indian activism. He has used the American Indian Movement's chapter in Denver to attack the leadership of the official American Indian Movement with his misinformation and propaganda campaigns.

Ward Churchill has been masquerading as an Indian for years behind his dark glasses and beaded headband. He waves around an honorary membership card that at one time was issued to anyone by the Keetoowah Tribe of Oklahoma. Former President Bill Clinton and many others received these cards, but these cards do not qualify the holder a member of any tribe. He has deceitfully and treacherously fooled innocent and naïve Indian community members in Denver, Colorado, as well as many other people worldwide. Churchill does not represent, nor does he speak on behalf of the American Indian Movement. New York's Hamilton College Kirklands Project should be aware that in their search for truth and justice, the idea that they have hired a fraud to speak on Indian activism is in itself a betrayal of their goals.

#14  Nope - damnit! If anyone knows, please post! Lol!

I remember a little Cherokee - something like:
Wahkinah tay too, wopinah tah tonay.

It about facing the rising sun or something, lol! Longhorn Council Order of the Arrow. Hey I was only 14 when I went in and can't remember.

This is much like klaatu berada nikto, heh...

#10  By "haircut" I presume you mean a scalping, bad?

Count coup on this 'tard and toss him out.

#9  The sad thing is that Ward Churchill received tenure despite the fact that he has done virtually no high quality research, does not have valuable knowledge (Ethnic Studies departments are a sick joke) and is a jerk besides.

Even sadder is that there are many, many more like him.

A commentary on the University system.

#6  Undoubtedly there will be a psychiatric case study of this joker in the New England Journal of Medicine, identifying a new syndrome: "Munchausen by Hippie."

an Amazon review of the book "Indians R Us" from Churchill:

"Once again he sets out to expose those who would appropriate Native culture and turn it into a commodity to be bought and sold."

-What a duplicitous asshole. Chief Douchebag of the Fuktard Tribe.

#4  If he were sweeping floors I would be the first one to argue that his employment should be continued.

But he's teaching kids.

You wouldn't send your kids off to learn history from David Duke (or, for that matter, David Irving); why treat the Stalinist apologist totalitarians any differently than you'd treat their Nazi equivalents? (And no, I don't accept 'The Stalinists won the war but the Nazis are a bunch of losers' as a valid answer.)

#3  I hope they don't fire him for his stupid free speech usage. Fire him for his doctored resume, fine. Firing him for his speech will only make him a martyr, when he should be the object of scorn and ridicule
