Do you want to know the true meaning of redskin? The term used to refer to American Indians…the same one used by a national sports team….the same term that American Indians protest? It’s not about skin color. It’s about atrocities committed against this nation’s first people. So, if you are interested in truth….you’ll take the time to listen.

The time it takes to download, depends upon your internet connection. It will be a longer wait for dialup – but if you really want to learn truth, you’ll take the time to listen.
–
It is a short time to wait, for a valuable lesson in truth-the real truth. Is 8-10 minutes too long of a time to wait, to learn the truth?

The voice you hear is Rev. Goat Carson….his ballad will teach you the truth about what redskin really means. If you dare to listen to truth. Dare to listen!
Hanged at Nuremberg by the Allies, , setting precedent in international law binding on the prosecuting nations also , Julius Streicher was convicted as a propagandist of Nazism fomenting racist and anti-Semitic images that made genocide easier to conduct, cover-up, rationalize, euphemize, gain mass acceptance for and participate in.
“He [Hitler] was very interested in the way the Indian population had rapidly declined due to epidemics and starvation when the United States government forced them to live on the reservations. He thought the American government’s forced migrations of the Indians over great distances to barren reservation land was a deliberate policy of extermination. Just how much Hitler took from the American example of the destruction of the Indian nations his hard to say; however, frightening parallels can be drawn. For some time Hitler considered deporting the Jews to a large ‘reservation’ in the Lubin area where their numbers would be reduced through starvation and disease.” (James Pool, Hitler and His Secret Partners: Contributions, Loot and Rewards, 1933-1945; Pocket Books, N.Y.op cit. p. 273-274).

LYRICS TO “REDSKINS” by Reverend Goat Carson

“REDSKINS” by Reverend Goat Carson (1999)———————————-
–
—– A lot of people don’t understand, they keep saying, “Goat, why are you guys so sensitive, about the, like, Washington Redskins?”And, well, the story of that word “Redskins,” that title, what that means, is such a sad, is such a heavy story, I said, well I must relay it, but I gotta balance it.
–
And I’ve been thinking about my mama quite a lot lately, and so I decided I’d just balance it out with her very favorite song. So here it is, the story of Redskins and mama’s favorite song.
–
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make my happy, when skies are blue never knowing how much I love you please don’t take my sunshine away.
–
Well you know the story of Andy Jackson and his Indian Fighters. Now Jackson devised the Indian Removal Act, but his Indian Fighters had a very peculiar preoccupation, and that was skinning the Indians on the battlefield. They used to make pants, they’d be able to take an Indian and skin him from the hip down and make themselves a pair of pants, or they take, turn him over, start two strips, you know, from his neck all the way down to his heel, and that’d be reins for their bridle. This was of course to strike terror into people’s hearts [“Shock n Awe”], but it sort of became a joke. And hence the phrase “Redskins.
–
“The other night while I lay sleeping, dreamed I held you in my arms. Woke this morning, I was mistaken, you know I hung my head and cried.
–
Well after making bounties on the Indians in all states, which made it legal to hunt them basically, a source of income, the skins then became more and more of a novelty, quite collectible by the wealthy Easterners. And the fascination got to such a terrifying point that by the time of the Sand Creek Massacre, in which the calvary massacred an encampment of Indians who were flying the American flag, and they were right where they were supposed to be on the reservation, and the army surrounded them anyhow and cut them all down. It was mostly old folks, women and children, and so it wasn’t much of a battle. And of the 600 people that were killed that day, eyewitnesses report not a single body survived mutilation. Women’s genitalias was cut and turned into hatbands, their breasts into tobacco pouches, the same thing with the men’s testicles, even the babies were skinned, the little boys and girls.
–
My sunshine, my only sunshine you make me happy when skies are grey Never noticed how much I love you please don’t take my sunshine away
–
So back in the day calling an Indian a “Redskin” was like calling an aligator a purse, and considering the genocide policy of the government of the United States a team like the Washington Redskins is kind of like a team called the Auschwitz Lampskins

Another Fan of the Term “Redskins” Who Never Saw American Football
“Having been a devoted reader of Karl May’s (sp?) books on the American West as a youth, Hitler frequently referred to the Russians as ‘Redskins.’ He saw a parallel between his effort to conquer and colonize land in Russia with the conquest of the American West by the white man and the subjugation of Indians or Redskins. ‘I don’t see why,’ he said, ‘a German who eats a piece of bread should torment himself with the idea that the soil that produces this bread has been won by the sword. When we eat wheat from Canada, we don’t think about the despoiled Indians.’[James Pool, Hitler and His Secret Partners: Contributions, Loot and Rewards, 1933-1945; Pocket Books, N.Y. 1997 pp. 272-75]
