Solidarity, Not Spam: Defend Chamoru Self-Determination, Oppose Bill 242-38!
Note: The recording took place 24 hours before the public hearing at the Guam Congress Building on Bill 242-38. Red Power Hour co-host Melanie Yazzie and TRN comrade Tåhdong talk with Melvin Won Pat-Borja (Executive Director, Guam Commission on Decolonization) and Michael Lujan Bevacqua (Co-Chair, Independent Guåhan) about why Bill 242-38 would erase a Native-Inhabitant–led vote and violate CHamoru self-determination. We cover Guåhan and Micronesia’s decolonization history, the ways U.S. citizenship is switched on/off by a militarized agenda, how an Independent Micronesia could shift Guam from being America’s “tip of the spear” to a bridge of peace between East and West, and why Indigenous solidarity is more powerful than spam.

Kia Kaha Chamoru Whanau!! Great conversation from Red Nation dealing with ICE Colonial Terrorism. It's insane this is in our area and our whole populace is bombarded with colonial facing media. China does not appear to be acting like The Japanese Imperial Army of WW2. If anything it's the Project 2025 MAGA USA Regime who promise similar Callous Imperial Racist Violence for it's Companies. Forming alternative networks with reliable logistics is necessary.

Tåhdong is hot AF. He would be a wonderful cuddly boyfriend.

A wise person once said: "trying the same thing over & over and hoping different results is a sign of insanity". The idea of trying to appeal to the imperial/colonial word while falling victim of China's demonisation is what has kept many island-nations chained to their colonial overlords.

Six weeks before the bombing of Pu'uloa, the US evacuated all white only military from the island of Guam. Pearl Harbor was not a surprise attack
