This Indigenous Goddess Gang is beautiful! Everything about this article is wonderful however one thing is not recognized — that business IS patriarchal! Money is patriarchal. The ideas “the West” has been imbibing are all patriarchal. Indigenous women could start not another business which asks permission to exist, but start a whole new paradigm by:

  1. Recognizing another calender — one that works with the cycles of nature such as the 13 moon calendar.
  2. Initiating another currency, one based on something that will benefit humanity such as vegetable seeds or marijuana seeds.
  3. Restructuring the entire economic paradigm by rewarding behaviors that are in harmony with Mother (penalties can be dropped as that is a patriarchal idea)
  4. Developing a totally egalitarian system where everyone has equal voice, (including children who never get to have any say in their affairs), everyone can make proposals, vote on other’s proposals, rate, and endorse one another in a totally open system that ferociously protects free speech and renounces censorship.

You can begin now, others would join you — black, white, women, men, children. We all want out of patriarchy. Give us white people the honor to support you!
