  Thanksgiving or National Day of Mourning? - A Native American Perspective

  by nvrgnbk in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  when frank james (1923 - february 20, 2001), known to the wampanoag people as wampsutta, was invited to speak by the commonwealth of massachusettsat the 1970 annual thanksgiving feast at plymouth.

  when the text of mr. james speech, a powerful statement of anger at the history of oppression of the native people of america, became known before the event, the commonwealth "disinvited" him.

  wampsutta was not prepared to have his speech revised by the pilgrims.

  'We want help!'

  by compound complex in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  "more and more witnesses keep sending emails wanting help and wanting out!

  the most common reason is they don't feel jehovah's spirit is in the organzation anymore (as if it ever was).

  but shunning and family keeps many in for now.

  Yes, an almost tangible malaise is felt among JWs. The society certainly does not have the strong hold it once had. The soup is simmering.

  The best thing that could ever happen is the Internet. This site {among so many} does a great job. People search and lurk and...learn. It seems Newbies come out of the woodwork every day.

  It is all about planting seeds. But no matter what, it will always be a slow and difficult process. Brainwashing is real. And also, because many have so much to lose...family, friends, and all. An entire life going down the drain. Takes time and much TLC to re-program.

  All this to say...yes, JWD does a great job...one day at a time.

  Sorry to hear about your recent loss:-(

  I still witness, but against the jw's. I'm sure I make my quota of 10 hours a month.

  made me smile:-)

  Wishing you the very best on the new path you have chosen.
