The Day of Mourning at Plymouth Rock resounded the treachery of the settlers who arrived here, and sounded out calls for freedom for Leonard Peltier, and solidarity with the resistance to the genocide in Palestine, the genocide of stolen and murdered children now deep within the DNA.

"When I grieve the tens of thousands of children in Gaza who are orphans, I mourn the generations of Native children who have been stolen from their homes," said Lea Kayali, with the Palestinian Youth Movement, at the National Day of Mourning hosted by the United American Indians of New England on Thursday.
