We are at a solemn moment, the moment when colonialism is not dead, alas, but at any rate already knows itself to be mortal.

"Banish the word 'struggle' from your attitude and your vocabulary. All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration.
We are the ones we have been waiting for." — Hopi elders
