What are some good free online medical journals?

What's the best website for full-text online medical journals (not free)? Having lost university access to an electronic library upon graduation, I'd like to know which website (I'm assuming it will be a university library and that it will cost money) has online access to the most full-text medical journals. The price doesn't matter, and in particular, I'm interested in otolaryngology and related journals.

How Can Anyone Trust Such A Corrupt Medical System As We Have Today? It is alarming to say the least when one makes a serious assessment of the medical industry today. The evidence of corruption is rampant, from the field of research all the way through to the highest levels of government. ..... It is perhaps even more alarming to view the way that so many hard line medical science worshipers simply ignore and deny the seriousness of the situation as it exists today. .. Instead of putting serious efforts towards addressing this serious infection that has overtaken the medical industry, ... these same individuals focus all their efforts on a constant onslaught against all natural forms of healing. ... This is in spite of how harmless natural healing is and has been in comparison to the pharmaceutical model. Here are some of the abundant examples of the corruption that exists in the medical industry today; "Wall St. Journal" - January 2009 "FDA Scientists Ask Obama to Restructure Drug Agency" "WASHINGTON -- A group of scientists at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration on Wednesday sent a letter to President-elect Barack Obama's transition team pleading with him to restructure the agency, saying managers have ordered, intimidated and coerced scientists to manipulate data in violation of the law. The nine scientists, whose names have been provided to the transition team and to some members of Congress, say the FDA is a "fundamentally broken" agency and describe it as place where honest employees committed to integrity can't act without fear of reprisal. ..." http://online.wsj.com/article/SB123142562104564381.html -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Western Journal Of Medicine" - Oct. 2001 "The unhealthy alliance between academia and corporate America" "Academia's relationship with private industry changed in the United States when Congress passed the Bayh-Dole Act in 1980.1 This law enabled universities to patent their discoveries and license them to private corporations. This policy fostered collaboration between academia and industry, which created jobs and products of immediate commercial value. But the delicate balance between academic and corporate expectations has swung too far toward private profit at the expense of public trust. Universities are threatened by a growing public concern that industry funding distorts research and undermines its traditions of objectivity, independence, and free exchange of ideas. ..." http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1071558/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "JAMA" (Journal of The American Medical Association) Vol. 300 No. 9, September 3, 2008 "Industry-Sponsored Clinical Research - A Broken System" "Over the past 2 decades, the pharmaceutical industry has gained unprecedented control over the evaluation of its own products. Drug companies now finance most clinical research on prescription drugs, and there is mounting evidence that they often skew the research they sponsor to make their drugs look better and safer. Two recent articles underscore the problem: one showed that many publications concerning Merck's rofecoxib that were attributed primarily or solely to academic investigators were actually written by Merck employees or medical publishing companies hired by Merck; the other showed that the company manipulated the data analysis in 2 clinical trials to minimize the increased mortality associated with rofecoxib.2 Bias in the way industry-sponsored research is conducted and reported is not unusual and by no means limited to Merck. ..." http://jama.ama-assn.org/cgi/content/extract/300/9/1069 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Wall St. Journal" - May 7, 2010 "Why the AMA Wants to Muzzle Your Doctor" " ...The AMA was not only a major supporter of ObamaCare but also an accomplice in its passage. Without the support of the AMA it is quite possible that the health-care reform initiative would have failed. So why the effort to silence other doctors? The AMA is not only worried about protecting this misguided legislation, it is worried about protecting itself. In the weeks since passage of this 2,700 page bill, more and more of its policy land-mines have exploded, including rising insurance premiums and admissions of inevitable rationing. Not surprisingly, an increasing number of physicians have expressed alarm over the impact that the legislation will have on their patients. This growing opposition makes the actions of the AMA, which represents only 17% of the doctors in the U.S., look very bad. It is essential to understand the primary reason the AMA stands alongside President Obama on health-care reform. The organization wants to protect a monopoly that the federal government has created for it—a m ... a medical coding system administered by the AMA that every health-care professional and hospital must use if they wish to get paid for the services they provide. This monopoly generates income of $70 million to $100 million annually for the AMA. That makes the AMA less an association looking out for doctors and more a special-interest group beholden to Congress and the White House. ..." http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703961104575226323909364054.html?mod=rss_opinion_main#articleTabs%3Darticle "PBS Frontline" - 2003 "Dangerous Prescription" "More than a dozen dangerous drugs have been pulled off the market since 1997.

Can two separate people use the same subscription of the WSJ-online? I like reading the Wall Street Journal (online). The problem is, I'm in medical school and need to live very frugally, so I don't have a subscription. Most articles are available to me for free, but sometimes certain ones are only accessible to subscribers and it can get annoying. My boyfriend is a subscriber to both the paper and online version...so I was wondering if I'd be able to use his login information and if so, would we both be able to log on at the same time from different computers? Or would my being logged in prevent him from doing so elsewhere? I know its the wrong section...but no one answers Qs in the internet section...so I figured there has got to be some WSJ readers in this high-traffic section....

What do you think of my story? I’d like to imagine that my birth parents weren’t the kind of people who shopped at superstores. That they were artsy and liberal. They didn’t think that the definition of “weekend trip” was an excursion down to the local Costco at which they bought all of the processed food that they could find and stopped to eat a delicious lunch of hot dogs and oversized sodas in the food court on their way out. I’d like to think that my mother was a musician—a singer, maybe, or a cellist, like me. My father was a writer, perhaps, or maybe he owned a restaurant. I’d like to believe that they’re the people that haunt my dreams, the voices in my memories. However, all of these traits are just figments of my consistently overactive imagination, and all that I know for certain is that I was their child, and, at some point in time, they had loved me. There’s a sign as you enter the city limits of Lanehurst, Illinois, that reads “Welcome to Lanehurst, Home of the Soaring Eagles”, although an accurate sign would read “Welcome to the dead end in the road, home to some of the dullest people you’ll meet…and Amélie Elkins”. Amélie Elkins. That’s me. Unfortunately, my parents belong to the formerly specified group: the dullest people you’ll ever meet. They aren’t my birth parents, but still. I live with them, just as I have been doing for the past seven years. I was adopted when I was nine, but conveniently cannot remember anything from my past beyond meeting Mr. and Mrs. Elkins at an adoption agency in Chicago. Don and Tracie are nice people, don’t get me wrong, but they’re not exactly my cup of tea. I mean, I’m smart. I’ve read medical journals in my free time since I was eleven. I’m the only sixteen-year-old senior in my high school. At the end of the school year, I’ll be graduating at the top of my class with enough credits to start college as a junior. Don and Tracie, however, are not exactly intellectuals. He’s an overweight, overzealous car salesman, while she’s a secretary at the local elementary school. Even without the memories of my past, I know that whoever raised me wasn’t anything like these people. I didn’t identify with them whatsoever until I’d been living in Nowheresville, Illinois, long enough that I’d forgotten what life might have been like without them. “Amé!” I heard Tracie call from downstairs. My name was pronouncedly French, and most people got it wrong on the first (or second, or third…) try. ‘Ah-may-lee’ was always my patient response when substitute teachers, soccer referees, or anyone else screwed up the foreign-looking accent. Somehow, most of these people managed to drag the word ‘Amelia’ from those letters, but it always came out kicking and screaming, sounding like an excuse, since they knew that they’d gotten it wrong. “I’m coming! Hold on!” I yelled back. I sat at my bedroom window, watching across the neighborhood, as a storm rolled in from the west. Despite the sweltering heat of the summer afternoon, I had the window open so that I could listen to the thunder as it lowed across suburbia. The house was dark at this time of day, which made it feel at least a little cooler. Once downstairs, I could see a sizeable box on the kitchen table. Tracie, who was busy rinsing ground beef for hamburgers, pointed without looking up at the box. “Fed-Ex guy dropped that off for you a bit ago. You’re not ordering anything online with my credit card, are you?” “ ‘Course not. I’m going to go upstairs and read…There’s a storm coming in by the way. We might want to be getting the hanging baskets off of the porch.” Not that they were really worth saving, but…. “Ah, never mind them. They were dead weeks ago.” She immersed herself once again in rinsing patties, and I took that as my cue to leave. As I climbed the stairs, I heard the pitter-patter of rain starting to come down on the roof. I hurried to close my window, tossing the package on my bed in the meantime. Just then, a cold breeze came through the screen. It felt so good after the heat of the day, but I knew that it was part of the massive cold front that was about to clobber my house. “Amélie! Come help me shut the windows!” Tracie called again. I rolled my eyes, leaving the box for later. A strong summer storm, at least, was a blip on the radar, a sign of life in the ultra-repetitive routine that was daily life in Lanehurst. Don was home fifteen minutes later, meaning it was time to help with dinner. By then, the storm tore at the house, sending deck furniture skidding across the patio. Rain came down in torrents, and the thick layer of clouds blocked out the sun. It was completely dark by seven o’clock. The weather had ruined the hamburger plan, so Tracie turned instead to a frozen pizza for dinner. I decided to make a salad to go along with it, making dinner seem at least a little bit planned. This is how most dinners work at the Elkins home: Choose a protein (usually some sort of red meat), choose a starch (mashed potatoes, fri fried potatoes, cheesy potatoes, ect.), choose another carbohydrate (Bread. It’s always bread). When Tracie doesn’t feel like cooking, there’s a supermarket worth of frozen food in the bulk freezer down in the basement. All of it usually tastes very good, as it should. As Tracie always says, she’s been cooking the same thing her whole life. It’s not that I don’t like the food that the Elkins eat, or anything about the Elkins, for that matter. I just feel like they’re so unlike me that they couldn’t possibly be my parents. How could someone like me grow from a couple like them? I longed for a life outside of Lanehurst, while they were perfectly content not to leave the house unless absolutely necessary. Something inside of me knew that there was no way that I’d grown up in a house like this one. “So what’s going on this week?” Don asked as I chopped carrots for salad. He was munching on the potato chips that Tracie had left out and tracing a watermark on the wooden table over and over again with his forefinger. “Umm, mom and I are probably going into town—like, Chicago—sometime soon. Maybe we’ll do that this week.” “Fat chance of that happening, Amé,” Tracie yelled from the bathroom, “what with the Cubs games and all. The traffic’s going to be absolutely awful. Maybe some other time, honey.” I shrugged and hung my head, and then went back to chopping in silence. After dinner, Don and Tracie sat down to watch the latest TV drama that held their interest. I decided to go back to my room. I’d all but forgotten about the box. It sat on my bed, and a small chill ran down my spine. It was probably just a set of blankets or something from Grandma Elkins, but I was excited anyway. Any sort of deviation from the normal routine was a good thing. I snatched a pair of scissors from the bathroom cabinet and sliced the packing tape open. Inside the box was definitely not a blanket set. It looked almost like a set of three books, each with a differently colored binding. I pull I pulled one out—the middle one—to see that it was actually a cherry-red binder. I opened it, and it was full of pages and pages of photographs. Confused and exhilarated, I turned back to the box and found a white envelope made of stiff cardstock in the bottom. Immediately, I tore it open. Dearest Amélie, I can only hope that I’ve found you well. Not knowing what has happened to you has been the worst punishment of all these past years. Hopefully, however, you will someday forgive me. I have made a grave mistake. In this box, as I’m sure you’ve found, are binders containing exactly three-hundred and sixty-five photographs that—hopefully—will connect the dots as to who you are, where you came from, and why we all need you home again. There’s a picture for every day of the year. A whole year of discovering. I have no idea what you will think of me or this crazy idea. My only wish is that 365 pictures will not be enough for you and that someday, you’ll come looking for us. Until then, all my love goes to you. Marie I stared at the letter as my face went pale and my hands shook. Was this it? Everything that I had been longing for was sitting right here on my bed? It couldn’t be possible, and yet here it was. The three albums were labeled on the binding as to their dates, so I took the earliest one and flipped open to the first picture. If I had thought that this was crazy before, now it seemed simply impossible. It was a picture of me. Unmistakably, that was me. Even as a baby, I could recognize my pointed nose and bright eyes. What surprised me, though, were the people that surrounded me. The woman who held me could only be my mother. She had the same blond hair and blue eyes, the same high cheekbones as me. Her fatigued smile matched mine. She sat in a hospital bed—it was obviously my birthday. The man who leaned over her was handsome and good looking. He had a chiseled jaw and piercing eyes; he looked pronouncedly European. At the bottom of the 8 by 10 picture was a caption scrawled in slanted, cryptic script. “Marc, Sophie, and Amélie; March 12th, 1994 at Bichat Claude-Bernard Hospital”. I leapt off of my bed and opened my laptop. I typed the name of the hospital into Google Maps and was shocked when the website located it in Paris. Paris. The word was diamonds in my mouth, sapphires falling to the floor with each syllable. My heart fluttered in my chest, and I was filled with such emotion that all I could do was smile and laugh. I began to cry as I realized what this meant. I knew my parents’ names. Marc and Sophie. I held this fact close to me as I burned the night away, staring at their picture.

Med School Libraries & Outsider Remote Access? Are there any medical school libraries that allow outside users to access online journals remotely (for download)? Most of the ones that I've found prohibit non-employees, non-students from accessing their e-journals. I was wondering if any are known libraries that allow e-journal access for free (or a small fee). Thanks!

Should all drugs be legalized? A lot of violence associated with drugs arises simply from the unavailability of the usual dispute resolution mechanisms in the drug business due to prohibition - which is the way the prohibitionists and the more brutal dealers want it. The violence arises because there is great profit to be made - profit which is possible ONLY because of prohibition. The policy clearly increases the level of violence in society, predictably causing a call for yet more cops, yet more prisons, ever-harsher sentences and fewer legal rights for the accused. It's a policy that deeply estranges communities from the forces whose job os to protect people, not harass and punish people. It's a vicious policy supported by the mob and the cops, only by those who profit from it, and those ignorant of the state of play on the streets. Nobody else. In 2009 ignorance is no longer an excuse. Leagalize regulate tax and GENTLY discourage. Maybe legalization of all drugs used "recreationally" by Americans, and the social control of drug use by means other than armed force and the attendant deprivation of the citizen's job/liberty/money/family may be better, eh? Incumbent politicians may also benefit from harsh drug laws. A person taking illegal drugs is more likely to vote for legislative change than a person who only uses legal drugs. Therefore, depriving persons caught with contraband of their voting rights helps keep sitting legislators in power. Or at least, that's what a local politician once told me. He also said that it's easy to defeat a political opponent in favor of drug legalization, you just dig up some horrific news story of a crime committed by a drug user. Another vicious cycle! Seems like Mexico and Latin America in general needs to legalize more than the US does: Link: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB123518102536038463.html?mod=most_emailed_day Note the part about Latin American leaders not being able to afford the "War on Drugs" and asking that the US consider decriminalizing or legalizing drug use. Typical of the Wall Street journal, that info is buried down about three paragraphs from the end. It should also perhaps be noted that President Calderon of Mexico, who vastly escalated the violence of this "war" by sending in the Mexican Army (a future model for the USA in this regard?) took power in a close and disputed election - and that his escalation of violence against "drug lords" has made US Drug Officials "ecstatic". Treat substance abuse as a medical condition; decimate organized crime. We would have large funds freed from law enforcement and incarceration that could be redirected to health. It's that simple. Same for gambling, but NOT for prostitution.

A knock at the door. “Amé?” Don asked. “Are you awake?” Groggily, I lifted my head to see that I had fallen asleep on the sky-blue album—the one I’d spent all night with. Hurriedly, I snapped it shut and put in back in the box, throwing the whole package behind the bed. “Yeah,” I said, trying to sound calm and sleepy. Don opened the door. He w was wearing his regular work attire, which consisted of a rotating combination of nine ties, six collared shirts, four suit jackets, and three pairs of khaki pants. Today was the gold tie, light blue shirt, navy suit jacket, and the dressiest pair of khakis. “I’ve got a meeting in Chicago at eleven, so I’m leaving soon.” I glanced at the clock. It was nine thirty. “I was wondering if you wanted to come with me, seeing as you had been looking forward to going with your mother…” “Really? Of course I’d like to come! Can you just give me a couple minutes to get ready?” I relished the opportunity to spend a day in the city on my own. “Of course. We can stop for breakfast on the way.” Don backed out of the room and shut the door. Finally! A day on my own in the only big city that I’ve ever known…otherwise known as heaven. Quickly, I pulled on a pair of denim shorts and layered a few tank tops together. I was glad to see that my hair was behaving today; instead of the traditional ponytail I left it to fall in gentle curls down my neck. I brushed my teeth and packed a bag. After deliberating with myself for a while, I gently put the blue album and my laptop into the bag. I had to force it to zip, but I didn’t feel like leaving it behind. I put the box containing the other two binders up on the highest shelf in my closet, hoping Tracie wouldn’t come in to clean at all while I was gone. Once I was fairly confident that she wouldn’t find them, I ran down to the driveway where Don was waiting. This is just the beginning...what do you think?

How Many of these Moderators are on the Purdue Cytometry Mail List? Author Topic mlinde Member United States 17 Posts Posted - February 03 2006 : 6:21:13 PM -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I'm looking into flow cytometer analysis programs for the PC and I was wondering whether anyone had any insight into which programs were the most useful and worthwhile. From what I have seen, Flow-Jo and FCSexpress are the more commonly used PC programs. Does anyone have any experience with either of these programs? The other option would be to purchase another Macintosh and use CellQuest.

However, the best flow cytometry software is FlowJo. There is a PC (Java based) and a Mac version.

My flow friends with PCs swear by WinMidi, which is free. If you Google for free flow cytometry software, you'll come to 2 sites, one at UMass, one at Scripps.

That's the company's tag line. And they deliver. LOVETHELAB?************ I'm a BD flow lover, a confirmed Mac user (I tell everyone "I don't do Windows"). So why am I touting a machine made by Amnis that requires Windows? Because this instrument goes above and beyond mere flow cytometry- it shows you every event (that's cell to non-flow users) in detail. I used it and I am sold. It takes a single experiment now to do intracellular localization, in place of two. A simpler caspase activation assay. What's not to love? Even the computer quandary is solvable (the one feature I'd change: I'd have it run off a Mac) - with an Intel Mac; just get Parallels software, install Windows, and you are good to go, or rather, run. And the ImageStream can run off an Intel Mac this way too. I bought an Intel iMac just for analysis. Installation of Parallels was easy, IDEAS is about as intuitional as any flow software package. And Amnnis reps bend over to be helpful. Don't let the price tag scare you; rather, help write a shared- instrument grant (we did) for your institution to get one. It is simply amazing.

The most comprehensive flow cytometry and analytical cytology website I have found. You will find resources ranging from archived protocols to request forms for the latest protocols CD-ROMs - and they are free while supplies last. Job listings, meetings, journals, latest developments- it is all here. Lectures Website Dr. J. Paul Robinson, Purdue University School of Veterinary Medicine, has put a compilation of lec-ture slides on a website. Some of the information is bullet statements, but the pictures are great. If you've never seen a flow cytometer, you'll see lots of them here. If you are new to flow, you'll find in-troductory slides here. Practical Flow Cytometry, Fourth Edition by Howard Shapiro, published by J. Wiley & Sons, 2003. Website Dr. Shapiro has kindly put his textbook online through Molecular Probes. It is free! Yes, you do need to register to see it, but that's all you need to do, and you have access forever. Flow Cytometry E-mail Discussion Group Website Have a question? Novices to experts, all levels of questions are welcome. This e-mail group has been invaluable to me. E-mails are archived and can be searched by topic. International Society for Analytical Cytology Website The premier society for flow cytometry, it publishes Cytometry Parts A and B (Clinical Cytometry), Case Studies in Clinical Flow Cytometry, and Current Protocols in Cytometry. These are available on-line, but you must be subscribed for access. Regular dues are US $126; fees are deeply dis-counted for students, post-doctoral fellows, and scientists from developing nations. Please consider joining. National Flow Cytometry Resource, Los Alamos National Laboratories Website Where the cutting edge happens. NFCR runs a course every June that alternates between Los Ala-mos and New England. I recommend it to the serious flow person; you will learn a tremendous amount, including how to build your own flow cytometer, if you are so inclined. FlowCyte Website This discussion group is dedicated to flow users interested in developing uniform bioinformatics standards. They are also developing analysis and statistics software for flow users.

help with a summary? Last Rites for Indian Dead by Suzan Shown Harjo What if museums, universities, and government agencies could put your dead relatives on display or keep them in boxes to be cut up and otherwise studied? What if you believed that the spirits of the dead could not rest until their human remains were placed in a sacred area? The ordinary American would say there ought to be a law—and there is, for ordinary Americans. The problem for American Indians is that there are too many laws of the kind that make us the archeological property of the United States and too few of the kind that protect us from such insults. Some of my own Cheyenne relatives’ skulls are in the Smithsonian Institution today, along with those of at least 4,500 other Indian people who were violated in the 1800s by the U.S. Army for an “Indian Crania Study.” It wasn’t enough that these unarmed Cheyenne people were mowed down by the cavalry at the infamous Sand Creek massacre; many were decapitated and their heads shipped to Washington as freight. (The Army Medical Museum’s collection is now in the Smithsonian.) Some had been exhumed° only hours after being buried. Imagine their grieving families’ reaction on finding their loved ones disinterred° and headless. Some targets of the Army’s study were killed in noncombat situations and beheaded immediately. The officer’s account of the decapitation of the Apache chief Mangas Coloradas in 1863 shows the pseudoscientific nature of the exercise. “I weighed the brain and measured the skull,” the good doctor wrote, “and found that while the skull was smaller, the brain was larger than that of Daniel Webster.” These journal accounts exist in excruciating detail, yet missing are any records of overall comparisons, conclusions, or final reports of the Army study. Since it is unlike the Army not to leave a paper trail, one must wonder about the motive for its collection. The total Indian body count in the Smithsonian collection is more than 19,000, and it is not the largest in the country. It is not inconceivable that the 1.5 million of us living today are outnumbered by our dead stored in museums, educational institutions, federal agencies, state historical societies, and private collections. The Indian people are further dehumanized by being exhibited alongside the mastodons and dinosaurs and other extinct creatures. Where we have buried our dead in peace, more often than not the sites have been desecrated. For more than two hundred years, relic-hunting has been a popular pursuit. Lately, the market in Indian artifacts has brought this abhorrent activity to a fever pitch in some areas. And when scavengers come upon Indian burial sites, everything found becomes fair game, including sacred burial offerings, teeth, and skeletal remains.One unusually well-publicized example of Indian grave desecration occurred two years ago in a western Kentucky field known as Slack Farm, the site of an Indian village five centuries ago. Ten men—one with a business card stating “Have Shovel, Will Travel”—paid the landowner $10,000 to lease digging rights between planting seasons. They dug extensively on the forty-acre farm, rummaging through an estimated 650 graves, collecting burial goods, tools, and ceremonial items. Skeletons were strewn about like litter. What motivates people to do something like this? Financial gain is the first answer. Indian relic-collecting has become a multimillion-dollar industry. The price tag on a bead necklace can easily top $1,000; rare pieces fetch tens of thousands. And it is not just collectors of the macabre° who pay for skeletal remains. Scientists say that these deceased Indians are needed for research that someday could benefit the health and welfare of living Indians. But just how many dead Indians must they examine? Nineteen thousand? There is doubt as to whether permanent curation of our dead really benefits Indians. Dr. Emery A. Johnson, former assistant Surgeon General, recently observed, “I am not aware of any current medical diagnostic or treatment procedure that has been derived from research on such skeletal remains. Nor am I aware of any during the thirty-four years that I have been involved in American Indian . . . health care.” Indian remains are still being collected for racial biological studies. While the intentions may be honorable, the ethics of using human remains this way without the full consent of relatives must be questioned. Some relief for Indian people has come on the state level. Almost half of the states, including California, have passed laws protecting Indian burial sites and restricting the sale of Indian bones, burial offerings, and other sacred items. Rep. Charles E. Bennett (D-Fla.) and Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) have introduced bills that are a good start in invoking the federal government’s protection. However, no legislation has attacked the problem headon by imposing stiff penalties at the marketplace, or by changing laws that make dead Indians the nation’s property. Some universities—notably Stanford, Nebraska, Minnesota, and Seattle—have returned, or agreed to return, Indian human remains; it is fitting that institutions of higher education should lead the way.Congress is now deciding what to do with the government’s extensive collection of Indian human remains and associated funerary objects. The secretary of the Smithsonian, Robert McC. Adams, has been valiantly° attempting to apply modern ethics to yesterday’s excesses. This week, he announced that the Smithsonian would conduct an inventory and return all Indian skeletal remains that could be identified with specific tribes or living kin. But there remains a reluctance generally among collectors of Indian remains to take action of a scope that would have a quantitative impact and a healing quality. If they will not act on their own—and it is highly unlikely that they will—then Congress must act. The country must recognize that the bodies of dead American Indian people are not artifacts to be bought and sold as collector’s items. It is not appropriate to store tens of thousands of our ancestors for possible future research. They are our family. They deserve to be returned to their sacred burial grounds and given a chance to rest. The plunder of our people’s graves has gone on too long. Let us rebury our dead and remove this shameful past from America’s future. 0 comments: Post a Comment Newer Post Older Post Home Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom) __________________________________________ Recently Dugg Stories The Covers Project The Covers Project began as a simple idea to help listeners discover new music by showcasing covers of famous songs.
