Native American Heritage month begins by Helen Bao
Native American Heritage Month begins a celebration of “Native New York: Indigenous in the City.”
For attendees of the Native American Heritage Month kick-off Wednesday night, the evening was replete with cultural reflection—as well as fry bread and Indian tacos.
With a Native American-style banquet and speakers on hand in Barnard Hall, students and faculty celebrated the beginning of the month dedicated to appreciation of American Indian culture.
The presence of Native American studies has expanded on campus recently, especially with the addition of Audra Simpson to the Columbia anthropology department. While she is somewhat new to the Columbia scene, her pilot classes have been well attended, indicating a growing interest in the area. “I was stunned by my enrollments,” she said in an interview earlier this semester.
Simpson was the keynote speaker Wednesday, where she touched on her research as an anthropologist—one that emphasizes “the way we think about citizenship, nationality, indigenality,” she has previously said—and stressed the importance of having a particular month set aside to reflect on her Native American heritage in addition to an ongoing celebration of American Indian culture.

It's not even "too much Old Testament", in the Old Testament God is compassionate, shows mercy, is patient and long-suffering. Consider the lesson we learn from Jonah, or the word delivered to Ezekiel that God does not desire the death of the wicked, that God takes no pleasure or joy in the destruction of the wicked by desires that that the wicked repent and change their ways so they might live and have life. God has always been a merciful, compassionate, kind and patient God who has no desire for the destruction of the wicked, who has loving-kindness for the sinner and for the wicked person to change their ways and truly live and have life. -CryptoLutheran
I'm praying for you and your family dear heart ((((hug))))
