The Native American Chief Joseph RiverWind and his wife, Laralyn arrived Sunday for a tour of Samaria. Chief RiverWind is the Peace Chief of the Arawak Taino Nation.
The two, who came from the United States, visited factories in the Barkan industrial zone, took in the view from Har Bracha (Mount of Blessing) of Joseph's Tomb in Shechem (Nablus), and tasted local Samaria wines at the award-winning Har Bracha winery.
In a meeting with the head of the Samaria Regional Council, Yossi Dagan, RiverWind revealed the warm feelings of the Native American community towards the State of Israel in general and Judea and Samaria in particular....
RiverWind said: "It is an honor for us to be here and to meet such wonderful people, the people of this land. Your story, the people of Israel, gives us a lot of hope. Your return to your language, your land, your return to your spirituality. For Native Americans this is an exciting success story."
"We share a similar story. They took from us our language, our identity, our land, and here there is the story of returning to Israel. It is an honor for us to be in Samaria and to encourage people in America and overseas to support Israel, including Samaria, to speak against the BDS movement and to support any way to help Israel, we are doing what we can to stop the propaganda and the Israel.
He added: "The Arab occupation must be stopped and Samaria should be returned to the Jewish people as they have restored Jerusalem and the rest of the country to its owners." The two played and sang a traditional Native American song, which they wrote and composed especially for the celebrations marking the 70th anniversary of Israel's independence.

Churchill? I don’t understand your reference.
Ward Churchill. It was a typo.
DITTO!
Ward Churchill is/was a fake Indian activist who taught ethnic studies at University of Colorado-Boulder.
He was fired in 2007 for research misconduct.
He had been given an “Associate” membership by one of the cherokee tribes. He used that to claim membership in good standing as a native american.
The tribe has since distanced themselves from him and stopped giving associate memberships.
Churchill is as much cherokee as I am Hasidic Jew.
Not at all.
Yeah tjis jerk is a wanna be. Gave himself a name that doesn’t exist in any tribe. Is a Puerto Rican
Don’t make excuses for people pretending to be what they are not
This yob teaches a mixture of NA , Christian, and new age beliefs. He is very cinfused
You don’t remember good old award Churchill? Had no degrees, had no blood but was a professor at CU and general puta agitator
Twila found him our, called him out, and things got real bad for the jerk
Their website doesn't offer much information, but they are based in Lancaster, Pa. They apparently claim to represent an Arawak/Taino diaspora.
Falsely so. He’s Puerto Rican. Real name is Jose Rivera
Sure his real name isn’t Joe Rivers? Like “Geraldo”?
Sick of this identity cr@p. I have more Indian blood (Creek) than Fauxcahontas even purports to have. You are who you are and what you have grown up to be, not the imagined product of distant blood strains now long dead.
That ancestry.com ad where someone dances in lederhosen & then winds up in a kilt & bagpipes because the website told him so? Please....., I’m American and that’s all that I yam.
Here, here! I ain’t eating my ancestors lutefisk for nobody.
Must have missed it.
When I see Churchill, I think of the great statesman and orator. Maybe there’s a whole tribe of bogus Cherokees somewhere. Wonder what their tribal rites look like.

Thanks Eleutheria5.
New DNA evidence indicates that 80% of Puerto Ricans have at least some Taino DNA. The spanish intermarried with many Native women. It was like Mexico. So the guy probably has some Taino.
“We share a similar story. They took from us our language, our identity, our land,
—
Note: there was a war. You lost. Not a similar story ... not even close.
But then this guy is one of the tribe’s ruling families and every thing is designed to keep them rich and everyone else poor in order to drum up sympathy to get still more money.
