Oscars- Leo- "DON'T TAKE THIS PLANET FOR GRANTED!!"

CONGRATULATIONS LEO!

CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERYONE!!
Wow normally I never watch the Oscars but having PVR made it a lot more fun.

That said Super Impressed with all the difficult issues that were dealt with tonight from ‪#‎TooWhiteOscars‬ to Sexual Abuse in the Catholic Church (SpotLight- Best Picture) and Lady Gaga with Vice pres, Biden asking everyone to take a pledge http://ItsOnUs.org and Leo's win with a Shout Out for Climate Change, the Indigenous and everyone whose voice is smothered by big corporations. Inside Out won and that's a great movie about emotions and all the changes that come with puberty. 

There's  lot of really good movies I would like to see now. But like Chris Rock asked those people, I had never heard of most of the nominated films.

I am glad Mad Max, while it won all those awards, didn't win, Best Picture because it was just too violent and wouldn't send a good message to the world. And Sam Smith, became the first openly gay man won and Oscar and gave a shout to the LGBT community.

Talk about Diversity.
I was impressed by it all...although I saw much more gore and violence than anticipated, I think I might watch next year. One thing for sure, I am much more inspired about my creative efforts. When you see such amazing work its hard not to be.

And for all it's pomp and glory, I was feeling rather dark and gloomy today but hopefully there is hope for this world and the films are a big part of it as they are the messengers.

So thank you to all the artists, and everyone that it takes to make a film. Well done. Amazing!

Please Support- Who is She?

Oh God, this video just gives me goosebumps and makes me cry....because we know it's played out in reality over a 1000+ times!!! Please Watch, Please Act!! Do Something!

Tired of waiting for Stephen Harper to call an inquiry the First Nations People of this land have taken it upon themselves to move forward and do it themselves. What a shameful government to allow this to happen and turned a blind eye when given every opportunity to take action to stop it.


From the website http://www.whoisshe.ca/
Every Indigenous woman and girl should feel safe every time of every day in every place in Canada. Our families can’t wait for Ottawa to stop Indigenous women and girls from disappearing. We are planning our own process to bring safety to our peoples.

Alert Bay-School Demolition-Healing

So wonderful to hear that this very significant event will help in the healing process of so many beautiful little souls that were preyed upon by evil people when they were forcibly taken from their families. 

  “From the 1870s to 1996, more than 150,000 Aboriginal children in Canada were removed from their homes and placed in government-funded, church-run schools like St. Michael’s.” http://globalnews.ca/news/1837504/demolition-of-alert-bay-residential-school-begins/


Rise UP Together!


"VANCOUVER – A special ceremony was held on Wednesday to mark the demolition of St. Michael’s Indian Residential School in Alert Bay. The school was operated by the Anglican Church from 1930 to 1975 and thousands of aboriginal people say they faced physical and sexual abuse there."
