Rape & child molestation by so-called spiritual leaders & AIM Leadership, members, supporters, etc…
http://abusepapers.wordpress.com/tag/aim/
Read it, this is just a couple of paragraphs about it from another WordPress blog…
I’m hoping that this will bring up issues about how to deal with it better instead of keeping it quiet because in Indian Country, most people decide just to keep it quiet.
I’m finding out that a lot of people I know have done things in the past, I don’t know if they are doing it now but they definitely had done things in the past, and nobody has ever said anything.
So I’m kind of hoping that these things will lead to abuse prevention, help for victim survivors and help for people who are abusive also.
That will come up with time.
So Martha emailed me with these things and I put a post on my blog saying that I felt like we’d been had by Bernard Red Cherries, and that he’s been accused of sexual abuse from a former stepchild.
At that time I wasn’t using her name because I didn’t really have permission at that time. I left it at that and for a couple of weeks I only got a few comments, I didn’t see anything.
That was probably three or four months ago that I put that post up.
Then about May 7th I think it was, I got a call from Robert Vanpelt who’s a fellow Siletz tribal member, saying that he was asked by Bernard Red Cherries to talk to me about that post on my blog.
I said I hadn’t gone and looked at it in a long time, I didn’t get emails on my comments or anything of what was going on.
I said, well, what if I take it off, would that satisfy Bernard?
He said he thought it would.
He didn’t say it definitely would, he said he thought it would.
I said I won’t be able to get onto the Internet until the next day and so I’ll take it done then.
When I took it down, there were a lot of comments on there then….

Why take the truth down & protect the abuser, Bernard Red Cherries…why not protect the abused child….
The very same Bernard Red Cherries who shut down the 2003 Proclaimation gathering of Arvol Looking Horse when other real Tetuwan Lakota spiritual leaders refused to go along with Red Cherries & Arvol Looking Horses…so-called Protection of Ceremonies…frauds, rapists, pedofiles, murderers, liars & thieves…just like I said about AIM & Arvol Looking Horses fraud-hoax of Tetuwan Lakota Spirituality, culture, history & Sacred Lifeways…
INDICT THE BUMS!!!!! STOP THE AIM 7& ALH ABUSE!!!!

Martha Alvarez had submitted comments from emails that she had sent to me and a fellow blogger. And then, after that was all sorts of crazy abusive crap coming at her and her mother and others. And so I read this stuff and thought, OK, they are going to ask me to make an apology and I don’t know if I’m going to do that. Sure enough the next day I got a phone call from Robert Vanpelt and he asked me to make an apology… or he sent me an email, that what it was. He asked for an apology. The demand for the apology was coming from a group called the Red Brotherhood Warrior Society, who I assume is out of Oklahoma, and Oklahoma AIM. I only know of two members of the Red Brotherhood Warrior Society, and that’s Bernard Red Cherries and Ralph Birdshead Jr. Ralph Birdshead I don’t know any other way or anything. I can’t find anything out about Oklahoma AIM. I’ve even asked people who know old AIMsters, who’ve been asking for me these old people and nobody seems to know who’s in Oklahoma AIM or what they do or anything.
So I had been reluctant to apologize and so I put a post on my blog calling out these guys, not bringing up the issue. I said let’s not bring up the issue that we have between us. But I put my name and face behind everything I say. That way if there’s something wrong with what I say, things like this will come up. If I’m proven to be wrong, I will admit it. It’s happened several times in the past with the radio show and my blog and other things so I admit it. Because I’m fallible, I make mistakes, I understand it.

Stand your ground…do the right thing, do not given into the pressure of these pedofiles & rapists, if someone had done the right things years ago…Anna Mae would still be alive, & so would so many other innocent people who just wanted to believe in Creator & his spiritual teachings.

But Martha kept on emailing us and talking about what happened to her and stuff and I couldn’t bring myself to make an apology for accusations that she’s making. I just brought up the fact that he is accused of being abusive and these accusations have come from Martha Alvarez who is a former stepdaughter of his which was also further proven by some of those horrific abusive comments that happened on the original post.
So I did these little battles with folks who were coming up. I believe some of the folks were actually Bernard but I can’t prove that. You can be anybody you want to on the Internet and I’m not a person that does that kind of thing. In fact there’s forums I won’t participate in because I can’t use my name. I will immediately be removed from those groups, or my comments will be, because I use my name. And I just can’t do something like that, it bothers the heck out of me. I tried a few times but it just bothers me so I don’t do it.

I know this is true, because I, Looking Back Woman was raped at 17 by AIM leader, Russell Means while Means was in the middle of his Sun Dance commitment at Frank Fools Crows arbor dancing next to my Father, Professor Calvin Dupree…this is what AIM members do & are able to get away with it…
Indict AIM, get AIM away from our children & women!!!

Pressure to cover up using traditional values…if these men, other than the ones trying to do the right thing were traditionals, this incident, like so many others that happen daily…would never have happened in the first place…NO MORE COVERING FOR THE ABUSERS!!!

Sal: OK, if I could just offer… I just wanted to make sure you had got all your points across. Just as a third party, I’m not representing you or Bernard Red Cherries. He has, if I remember right, Robert Vanpelt representing him. As a Native American, why didn’t you seek to handle this in a traditional way by going to the Native Chiefs and offering tobacco and stating your case among the other Chiefs and seeing how that would go?
Eugene: Well, I saw how… I won’t go into the details of it, but I saw how Portland AIM’s bad behavior was dealt with, which was basically giving people tobacco to not say anything about it and to keep quiet about it. To me, that just wasn’t right. To me… and none of it would have come up in meetings or anything… To me, it should have been handled differently as far as that goes. It should have been “OK, you, so-and-so, you need to take responsibility for your actions, for what you did. And you, you need to take responsibility for these actions that you did. You need to make the proper apologies and make amends for the actions you’ve done that have harmed people on one level or another or have somehow disgraced the organization.” And so on and so forth. And what I saw was basically a cover-up and the use of tobacco to keep people from talking about it.
So to go in more traditional manner, the people that I knew of who knew us both, I didn’t feel comfortable with. And so the only thing that I felt to do was to come forward with it. Then, in terms of protection for myself, I thought it was best to bring up names because if any harm comes to me like it was said through Robert Vanpelt, you know, he’d hate to see something happen to me or anybody I know. Veiled threats aren’t anything that police or anybody else knew anything about. I wanted, if anything actually happened, I’d want there to be a trail, people to be investigated. So as a self-defense, I’ve started naming names just to protect those that I know. Not so much myself because as I said I don’t mind putting myself on the line but it’s when I put myself on the line and then all of a sudden other people that I know are targeted, then it makes it like a whole different thing altogether.
So I didn’t do it traditionally because I had seen that happen with the Portland AIM issue and the people that I knew that knew us both didn’t seem… I didn’t feel comfortable with. So the only thing that I knew to do, which I usually do, is to open my big fat mouth, which has at times got me in trouble but I still do it. That’s what I do. Like I said, I’m hoping in the long run that what this helps with is to bring about prevention programs and programs to help people get out of abuse, programs to help people who have been abused and programs to help people who are abusers. But I don’t know.
Maybe what I’ve done has done the complete opposite but that’s how I operate. Well that’s pretty much my explanation.
Sal: One other thing too. You mention that Martha Alvarez is his accuser, his stepdaughter… cause so far she hasn’t come forward yet. If she doesn’t come forward, what do you think you might have to do then? Because then it will look like a smear campaign on your part against Bernard Red Cherries. [crosstalk] Because of the work he’s done, that has happened before…
Eugene: She sent me an email. Another person I’ve been talking with said you talked to her and that she recanted. But then I talked to Martha herself and Martha said she didn’t even know who you were at that time. She sent you an email, which also came to me, asking you about that because she had never talked to you. I don’t know if you talked to… somebody or how you got whatever number you had but if you want her to, I’m sure she’d be willing to talk on your show too.

Sal: Well, not that, just… Let’s go the police. If there is a case of abuse, then let’s get some charges filed. If there’s abuse, there are other channels of handling this other than just blogging about it.
Eugene: Yeah, well, also I’m not sure what the statute of limitations are on something like that. I haven’t looked that far into the law. So I don’t even know if those type of things can still be brought up at this point. They probably can, I don’t know. But you would have to ask Martha about that herself since she’s his accuser, she’d be the one that would be able to do so. I don’t know if that’s where she wants to go or for that matter if that’s a way she actually can.
Sal: OK, well, if she never does comes forward, would you offer any sort of apology or whatever officially to them or no?
Eugene: But she has come forward. Like I said she’d be even willing to talk on your show if you wanted her to.
Sal: [pause] Well, that she’d gone to the police though and talked to them…
Eugene: If she goes to the police?
Sal: Yes.
Eugene: You mean if she doesn’t go to the police, would I offer an apology or anything like that?
[40:04] Sal: Well, yes, because really if there is abuse, that is the proper way to handle it then that you want to go if you don’t want to handle it the traditional way is to go to the police and let’s file some charges and get the man locked up. If he is guilty of abuse, he’s guilty of abuse and should be sitting in a jail cell. [crosstalk] Otherwise then it’s just one woman’s word. I just hope you weren’t being used…
Eugene: [crosstalk] Again, I don’t know the laws that well as far as statute of limitations and stuff like that and what gets a person comvicted… Sometimes people get convicted of crimes they didn’t commit on circumstantial evidence. For example, Leonard Peltier. Sometimes people get convicted on circumstantial evidence when they are guilty. The state laws… That would have to be something you’d really have to bring up with her.
But if she even doesn’t go to the police, no, I wouldn’t offer an apology because, again, I’m not his accuser. I just brought up the fact that Martha had accused him of abuse. And even if she can’t bring it up in court or anything like that, she will still continue to accuse him of abuse when she was a child, when she was his stepchild. So I don’t see the fact that whether or not she takes it to the courts, through the court system, would have anything to do with me giving an apology system, would have anything to do with me giving an apology because, again, she’d still accusing him, whether or not it goes through court. She stands by her words and she was actually his stepdaughter.
Sal: OK, but like us that just came in as a third party, we’re not really seeing any proof other than what you’re posting about. Or were posting but it’s no longer there. That’s my concern.
Eugene: So somebody accusing somebody of abuse that was actually his stepchild is not considered proof to you guys, that’s what you’re saying. Even though…
Sal: Well, let’s go to the police and do that. That’s my point.
Eugene: … for example in boarding schools and residential schools, most proof in the cases there, especially up in Canada and residential schools, is only testimony. It’s only testimony from the people who have been abused. …
Sal: [crosstalk] Well, could you offer what proof that was offered to you before you posted that?
Eugene: …There is not photographs or physical evidence or anything, it’s just the fact that, yeah, they were at the school and, yeah, they are accusing these people of abuse in various forms.
[42:25] Sal: [crosstalk] Well, could you offer what proof that she offered you that made you post this?

Eugene: Other than that, testimony is considered proof, is that…?
Sal: How about what proof did she offer you that encouraged you to post this?
Eugene: Huh?
Sal: What proof did she offer to you of abuse that warranted you posting all these accusations?
Eugene: For one, her testimony. And, two, she follows the same patterns of having been abused. She was definitely his stepchild. And many other people, like I said, have came forward but they want to remain anonymous, that have dealt with him and/or been abused by him in one form or another. So that is the basic proof at the moment…and… I’m not exactly sure what you’re looking for…
Sal: I’m looking for…
Eugene: Testimony is considered proof but even if it doesn’t go into the court system, it still what it is, it’s still an accusation.
[43:33] Sal: OK, just, to all of us it looks like you’re attacking the man, that’s my point.
Eugene: But what?
Sal: That was my point. It appeared to many of us that you were attacking the man.
Eugene: Oh, attacking him?
Sal: It just appeared, yes…
Eugene: I felt like the show was used as a cover for possible bad behavior on his part, possibly towards Della, after I found this out. But then again that’s just possibilities, I don’t know exactly what. But I do know that Martha has stated that he has abused her and she has stated the same things over and over. Her story doesn’t change and her mother has supported her on this although her mother wishes she wouldn’t come forward because she’s terrified. And so has her grandmother. And other people have come forward as well like I said. That unfortunately kind of leaves me out there as the point person in all this and all I am is the person that’s pointed out the fact that he’s been accused. It may look like an attack but really I don’t care about Bernard one way or the other, other than the fact that he came onto the radio show, that he possibly used it as a form of cover, that he’s never come forward to deny this. That’s another thing: This whole thing, never been a denial, never a rebuttal. All that came forward was the fact, through Robert Vanpelt, that there were three different organizations, Native organizations, coming after me because I brought this up. And so there hasn’t been any like “Oh yeah

Martha was then my stepdaughter but I was the model father.” He’s never come forward to say that. He’s never said that through Robert Vanpelt or to me personally.
[45:30] You know, like if someone accused me of something, which has happened in the past, I’d say “Well, no, I never did that. What I did was this.” Or “No, I wasn’t even there. I have no idea what you’re talking about. I was someplace else and I can prove it.” But none of this has been done. This whole month that we’ve been going through this there has been no rebuttal, no denial. I mean, if you were accused… If I came up to you and accused you of beating your dog. You’d say “Well, I don’t have a dog so how can I beat my dog?” You know? Or whatever. You’d have some sort of denial or rebuttal to it, unless you actually did it. Then, if you were man enough, you’d admit that “Yeah, I beat my dog but I don’t beat my dog anymore. I really love my dog. If I lose my temper, I go out of the room” or whatever else. Like I said, none of this has happened. There has been no denial, there’s been no rebuttal, there’s been nothing other than veiled threats against anybody I know. And this invisible army of only whom I know a few people.
[46:37] Sal: OK, did you happen to hear the show when he was on WSLR two weeks ago? [crosstalk] Because that was his offer of his side of the story.
