Censorship On Native Unity

Someone or some group is censoring the material that is appearing on the Native Unity Blogsite. The censorship first showed up on the Google Search site a few days ago where "Native Unity" was featured with the headline of the article on the controversy between Native Groups and CBS/Grammy over the Outkast music group for their "Hey Ya" performance on the awards show. I appreciate the patronage from Google. It sends a great many visitors to the Native Unity blogsite.

One day the placement was there, the next day it was gone with just the title "Native Unity" appearing on the Google site. The whole sequence reappeared yesterday with a story about "Tribal Casino Money Aiding Arizona School Districts" . Now, today the whole thing has disappeared, again, with not even the Native Unity title block appearing on the Google site. .

If someone doesn't like the Grammy controversy or Indian gaming, please have the intestional fortitude to confront me to my face, rather than going behind my back to have the material deleted. My name and e-mail address are visible on the blogsite.

It also isn't like I'm making money on this site. Maybe someone is, but it sure isn't me. I do this for nothing and the opportunity to try to promote Native Unity throughout the various tribes in our country.

A little honesty and integrity would be great appreciated for the reasons why the censorship is taking place with this column.

Native Unity - A place for Native American Peoples to solidify their tribes to make a positive impact on the cultural, social, economic and political fabric of American society and a place for non-Natives to better understand the ways of the American Indian.
