Novamation's Cross-Country Journey of Forgiveness

6/5 HASKELL UNIVERSITY [Lawrence, Kansas]


This was not what we needed, today. We were put up in an auditorium, which really only empahsized the fact that virtually no one showed up. The few who did show up were staff members, and they refused to say anything other than glowing praise for their employers.

I don't really have anything to say about this stop. Don seems positive enough -- we got our message to a few people -- but it felt like a waste of time, to me.

Also, the auditorium was full of bugs and the spotlight window was nailed shut.

In a memorable final touch, they brought in someone to make us lunchmeat sandwiches; she charged us $3.50 a sandwich. I felt unwelcome. There were only some ten people who ate -- it was only yesterday (Sequoyah) were there some 50+ people and everyone got a chicken-fried steak.

Overview

In 1879, an American genocide began with the founding of the first Native American boarding school in Carlisle, PA.

In 2009, the time has come -- not for vengeance, but for forgiveness. The time has come for a people to heal.

My Role

My name is Chris. I own and operate Novamation Studios, a video production company in northern Minnesota.

I have been given the rare honor of being asked to accompany White Bison on their 6,800-mile journey of healing, forgiveness, and wholeness. My job is to document every step of the way with video, photographs, recorded interviews, and writing.

Updates to this page will be as often as I can manage. Computer and Internet access may be irregular, but I'll do what I can.

I consider this blog finished, and have no plans to make future updates.

Thanks to the seemingly-unfixable formatting of blogger.com, there are two hurdles to reading this site easily. First, older posts are archived and must be accessed using the links below. Secondly, the posts are printed in reverse-chronological order. They must be read from the bottom-up.

If anyone knows a way to change this, please let me know. As is, it's simply the shortcomings of a free service.
