Don't Get Sick After June: American Indian Healthcare

Declared wards of the state, Native Americans were promised housing, education and health care in exchange for lands ceded to the US Government. Like so many other promises, these too have not been met. The budget shortfall to the Indian Health Service continues to be about 45%. Add to this the generational trauma of subjugation, reservations, boarding schools and alienation, their health and health care is in a critical state.

I think it is time to claim your land back! Creator gave you the land......not to give it away......He gave you Traditional medicine.......trust Him to care for you! It is time to turn back to your own ways and to look to Creator who is your provider....NOT the Government. That is why this has been allowed to happen.

The same is happening in poor American towns and to poor families, the children, and the elderly. Our American government does not want to take care of their own they want to show the illusion of it on TV.

This video should be published. People should know about this. Everyone should open their eyes and realize what's happening to our people.
