Joe Tohonnie Jr. and the White Mountain Crown Dancers - Indian Village NM State Fair 2023.

Evening Fire Ceremony and Blessing for all in need of Solace and Spiritual guidance Joe Tahonie Jr. summoned the creator with prayer and the Crown dancers blessed the Indian Village Arena and People attending the event.

The Chants and Dancing invited the Thunder Spirits with Lightning with a torrential rain blessing the people and purifying all negativity.

There are five Crown Dancers, including four masked dancers representing the directions of north, south, east, and west.

The fifth dancer is the clown, who protects the others by driving away evil spirits with the sound of his hummingbull-roarer, a thin piece of wood suspended from a string and swung in a circle.

Joe Tahonie Jr. Explains the significance of the White Mountain Crown Dance and the Blessings they perform.

GLOBAL SIGH OF RELIEF - YOU ARE NOT ALONE - Native Media Network

The beginning of peace may be close, someone wants to kiss you, hold you, and make you tea.

YOU ARE NOT ALONE !!!!

Dear Friends:
A big weight at the prospect of a peace agreement has been lifted.

Our prayers and voices have sent a message and aligned with Respect, Interdependence and Thanksgiving for all of creation
Elders are offering to***co, smoke and prayers to the four directions, Mother Earth and Father Sky.

Right now, there are Tibetan Buddhist monks in a temple in the Himalayas endlessly reciting mantras for the cessation of war, suffering and for the flourishing of happiness.

The Pope is speaking out for the futility of War and destruction.
Nuns in the Alps are in endless vigil, praying for the Holy Spirit and peace to alight the hearts of all of God's children.

Someone you haven't met yet is already dreaming of adoring you.
Someone is writing a book that you will read in the next two years that will change how you look at life.

A farmer is looking at his crops and whispering, "nourish them."
Someone wants to kiss you, to hold you, to make tea for you.

Someone is willing to lend you money, wants to know what your favorite food is, and treat you to a movie.

Someone in your orbit has something immensely valuable to give you for free.

Something is being invented this year that will change how your generation lives, communicates, heals and passes on.

The next great song is being rehearsed.

Thousands of people are in yoga classes right now intentionally sending light out from their heart chakras and wrapping it around the earth.

Millions of children are assuming that everything is amazing and will always be that way.

Someone is in profound pain, and a few months from now, they'll be thriving like never before. From where they are, they just can't see it.

Someone who is craving to be partnered, to be acknowledged, to arrive, will get precisely what they want — and even more. And because that gift will be so fantastical in its reach and sweetness, it will quite magically alter their memory of angsty longing and render it all "So worth the wait."

Someone has recently cracked open their joyous, genuine nature because they did the hard work of hauling years of oppression off of their psyche — this luminous juju is floating in the ether, and is accessible to you.

Someone just this second wished for world peace, in earnest.
Some civil servant is making sure that you get your mail, and your garbage is picked up, that the trains are running on time, and that you are generally safe.

Someone is dedicating their days to protecting your civil liberties and clean drinking water.

Someone is regaining their sanity.

Someone is genuinely forgiving the seemingly unforgivable.

Someone is curing the incurable.

You. Me. Some. One. Now. “YOU ARE NOT ALONE”

EASTER SUNDAY - CELEBRATING THE ASCENSION OF SPIRIT - 2026 - Native Media Network

Power of the Drum Call – Begins a New Season of the Mother Earth’s Cycle.

Dear Friends:
The drums summon the community as a call to gather and celebrate the end of the Winter season and renewal of Mother Earth’s spring cycle of procreation and re-generation.

One of the first memories I have as a child, (Maybe 4-5) was walking back home after a midnight Easter Mass and looking up at the sky and seeing all of the stars twinkling in the sky and wonder ……

It was my first recognition that I was not alone and that there was a greater being than myself.

That same thought has repeated itself many times, Looking at a grain of sand on a beach and wondering if it was a universe in and of itself;
Looking at all of the lights from an airplane and recognizing the simultaneous experience of life in every village and city for millions of people;
Looking at a Facebook post and wondering who of the thousands of followers are looking at this message;

and

As of late looking at the crossroad of Quantum entanglement and String theories and the Interdependence of Mineral, Plant, Animal and Human experience that the Ancients and Wisdom of the Elders knew.

The Ascension of Spirit is a common element that we all share through birth, life, procration and death in an endless cycle of re-generation.

The spiritual connection that we all share with one another is manifest in the Ascension of the spirit within each and every one of us.

Celebrate Easter Sunday - The Ascension of Spirit lives in every tradition and religion for Peace, Love, and Happiness.

Listen for the beat of your heart - Ceremony activates Prayer

NO KINGS DAY 3 SANTA FE NM – The VOICE OF THE PEOPLE WAS HEARD LOUD AND CLEAR – Native Media Network

“There Is No Power, Like The Power of the People, Once The Power of the People Is Unleashed.”

“El Pueblo Unido Jamás Será Vencido!"

Dear Friends:

By this time, you may have already seen the millions of kindred Peoples marching throughout the major cities the U.S. expressing their outrage that the Trump regime and their sycophants are imposing on the will of the people, by bending the U.S constitution to serve their autocratic and economic interests by denying the Health, Education and Welfare of the Peoples.

The message is very Simple MAGA (Make America Great Again) was a lie by the political elite designed deceive the working class. (It has failed bigly).

The Big Lie, It worked for a while, however as PT Barnum would say "You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all of the time."

The end of the “Big Lie” has been reached.

Thank you to Indivisible Santa Fe ( https://indivisiblesantafe.org/) and the National Indivisible Organization ( https://indivisible.org/ ) for the No Kings Day 3 rally at the New Mexico State Capital (The Round House).

The Speakers, Musicians and thousands of citizens filled the Capital grounds to give meaning for what the founding fathers of the U.S.A. embodied in the preamble of the Constitution with the formation of a governing body of laws as documented in the Constitution with three equal branches to government for “We The People”

Note: It has been widely documented that the framers of the constitution were influenced by the Iroquois Confederacy and the Haudenosaunee Peoples, having a representative form of governance to resolve differences, disputes and making laws in a “Long House” represented by delegates from all of the five nations, Mohawk, Onieda, Onondaga, Cayuga, and Seneca to benefit the “Peoples” of the confederacy.

It is also important to note that the “Clan Mothers” had the final ruling on all decisions made in the long House. (The Supremes ?)

We at Native Media Network were honored to be able to video and record the Voice of the People in Santa Fe, which I am certain is shared by all the millions of marchers and rallies throughout “No Kings Day 3”

“There Is No Power, Like the Power Of The People, Once the Power of the People Is Unleashed.”

“El Pueblo Unido Jamás Será Vencido!"

Indivisible Santa Fe is one of the many grass-roots groups aligned with the National Indivisible organization. Indivisible is a movement of thousands of group leaders and more than a million members working actively to elect local champions and fight for progressive policies. Indivisible Santa Fe works collaboratively to defend an inclusive democracy and values that benefit all Americans.

Invisible Santa Fe needs to be commended for the program that produced and empowered the diversity of Santa Fe with Blessings, Song, Personal experiences, an hard political statements that reflect the diversity and inclusion of the many communities that make our community work.

Senator Ben Ray Lujan was the last speaker of the program, but we have placed it as the first speech to reflect the political reality of D.C. and the importance of voting in the upcoming mid-term election as the number ONE political priority to re-establish a governance that represents the will of the Peoples over oligarchical monetary and power interests of the elite.

GET READY FOR NO KINGS DAY PROTEST AT A CITY NEAR YOU – Native Media Network

Find an Event Near You !!!!
https://www.nokings.org/

Dear Friends and Relatives:
We are at a tipping point choice of a free democratic governance that recognizes diversity, acceptance and compassion for an egocentric despotic Fascist ideology that is attempting to rule by fear, coercion and violence to suppress the unalienable rights of the PEOPLE.

The Choice is Simple PEOPLE HAVE THE POWER – RESIST – TO BE SILENT IS TO BE COMLICIT.

In the United States, we don’t put up with would-be kings.
Our peaceful movement is only getting bigger and stronger. “NO KINGS” is more than just a slogan—it’s the foundation our nation was built upon. Born in the streets, carried by millions in chants and on posters, it echoes from city blocks to rural town squares, uniting people across this country to fight dictatorship together.

The president thinks his rule is absolute. But in America, we don’t have kings, and we won’t back down against chaos, corruption, and cruelty. Grow our movement and join us.

A core principle behind all No Kings events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully at these events. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events.

DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE
The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America, When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to affect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly, all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.

But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.
To view the entire Declaration:

IT IS YOUR UNALIENABLE RIGHT – DO NOT SIT IN SILENCE, SHOW UP AND A NO KINGS DAY RALLIES AT A CITY NEAR YOU – BE STRONG / BE LOUD.

THERE IS NO POWER, LIKE THE POWER OF THE PEOPLE, WHEN THE POWER OF THE PEOPLE IS UNLEASHED.

WITHOUT RESERVATIONS – UNCUT & UNFITERED - RICARDO CATE’ LIVE – Native Media Network

Laughter is the best Medicine

Dear Friends:
Last night we were privileged and honored to attend a live performance at a sold out crowd at the Jean Cocteau Cinema ( pronounced in French) in Santa Fe (pronounced as in Kewa) for an hour of laughs and story telling on the experiences of being Ricardo Cate’.

I you do not think that growing up with an Indian Mother & Father, to getting his toes cut off due to Type 2, to being the only Indian in his Marine Corp bootcamp Platoon , is not hilarious, then do not click on the YouTube link bellow.

“Caté hits on the irony native people feel and express in humor.” ―Larry Cespooch, Ute Indian filmmaker

Cartoonist Ricardo Caté describes Indian humor as the result of “us living in a dominant culture, and the funny part is that we so often fall short of fitting in.” His cartoon column, Without Reservations, is a popular daily dose in the Santa Fe New Mexican.

Actor Wes Studi says, “Caté’s cartoons serve to remind us there is always a different point of view, or laughing at every day scenes of home life where Indian kids act just like their brethren of different races.

Without Reservations is always thought-provoking whether it makes you laugh, smirk, or just enjoy the diversity of thought to be found in Indian Country.”

“LIFE IS GOOD”
