Letters from Our Readers

Being an inmate we [I] are very limited to what we can read. By luck your July-August 2015 issue ended up in my possession. I am a Tribal member of the Lac du Flambeau Band of Chippewa Indians (Ojibwe).

Can you please give me the address of AFN Grand Chief Perry Bellegarde so I can write to him concerning his statement: Reconciliation can’t proceed while First Nations are mired in the “poverty that plagues our people”?

I can change that statement but I need to correspond with him.

The Pope asked the world for a universal agreement on climate change. I can help him through a modification in producing clean electricity that I call GreenTrax.

GreenTrax is a microgrid, being an organization that helps the Native Church. I’m asking for your help in getting GreenTrax introduced to the Pope or if I could get an address to the United Nations or the Green Climate Fund.

This GreenTrax will revolutionize the world, along with global healing.

—J.J., Stanley, WI
