  1. I heard this song on WMPG's show, #TheWeavers with #LisaSockabasin. What a great lead-up to today's #DemocracyNow broadcast (Weavers is at 11:30am, while Democracy Now airs at Noon).

    "You provided us a home; our conduct is shameful
    Momma! We need you now more than ever
    I can't believe the way we treated you; better late than never
    I've taken you for granted but from here and now I cherish you
    And this my open letter to show the pain that I share with you
    You've given us a life, my brothers make you hurt
    But all they see is dollar signs when stealing out your purse
    Man, they never taken the time to see you for what you really worth
    But the damage done is permanent it can't be reversed

    Oh Momma! You really made some shady people
    You've given them the world but like the sun you see no evil
    Momma D was my teacher but she gone now
    I know where I belong now; my mother's keeper
    So Momma I refuse to see you die this way
    I take your pain to fuel my fame to fight the game another day

    It's oil mines and pipelines; show me what the cancer is
    Injected in your veins I'll tell you what the answer is
    Momma, Momma!
    (Wade, in the water)
    Momma, Momma!
    (Wade, in the water, children)"

  5. #BloodInMyEyes by #KleeBenally

    "if this is the season to harvest
    we harvest what we have grown
    our teethe like daggers
    our nails sharpened on stone

    our enemies surround us
    there is a symmetry in this cycle
    the land and the seasons
    are weapons of our survival

    in this war there are more than two sides
    can’t you see the the blood in my eyes?

    we’ve gone to war with empty hands before
    like thousands of arrows, lightening crashing down
    we’ve gone to war with empty hands before
    with darkness and mother earth, we stand this sacred ground…

    in this war there are more than two sides
    can’t you see the the blood in my eyes?"

  10. #NativeAmericaCalling: Native Playlist with #KenPomeroy and #SamanthaCrain

    Friday, October 3, 2025

    "Two #NativeAmerican women from Oklahoma are carving distinct and inviting musical paths through the music world.

    "Samantha Crain is out with her seventh album. 'Gumshoe' offers the latest installment in the veteran #Choctaw singer-songwriter’s musical evolution. The cover artwork — a photo of her own beadwork — is a clue to the roots she draws on for strength and inspiration.

    "And Ken Pomeroy is out with her debut album. 'Cruel Joke' invokes a simmering depth of feeling that transcends her young age. She is a natural storyteller from the #CherokeeNation with a lot to say.

    "Both of these creative artists are added to the Native Playlist at Native America Calling."

  11. The Warriors
    by #SnottyNoseRezKids

    "I don't rock 'n' roll, nah, I stand and rock (Standin' Rock, yi)
    I think there's something in the water, here's some food for thought
    Is it really a felony for wanting my water clean?
    Expect us not to rage against the machine
    We ain't movin' like Rosa P, nope
    You know why, 'cause this dreamcatcher's catchin' your pipe dream
    Look what happened to Flint
    No disrespect, but the same happens to village kids that sip water from the tap
    And they're dyin' to live from the cancer it gives
    Where's the state of emergency for them?
    Act like you know the story
    Broken treaties, unholy matrimony
    One nation under the creator, homie
    All my relations, mni wiconi"
