More quotes by Russell Means
Even though the American Indian Movement on a national-international scale has proven to be extremely dysfunctional, the American Indian Movement I was associated with I'm very proud of. We were a revolutionary, militant organization whose purpose was spirituality first, and that's how I want to be remembered.
Russell Means
They don't understand that a slice of the pie isn't the whole pie - but they wonder why they are always hungry
Russell Means
Colonialism has completed the destruction of the American Indian in the United States - the cultural destruction.
Russell Means
Children in poverty aren't trying to get out of poverty they're just trying to rip off a pair of Nikes. So we Indian people are a microcosm of what's happening in America. We are now consumers, and our culture has gone.
Russell Means
I've always thought it was arrogant to write about yourself, particularly when you're still alive.
Russell Means
What the American Indian Movement says is that the American Indians are the Palestinians of the United States, and the Palestinians are the American Indians of Europe.
Russell Means
Imagine going to the holy land in Israel, whether you're a Christian or a Jew or a Muslim, and start carving up the mountain of Zion. It's an insult to our entire being. It's bad enough getting four white faces carved in up there [on Mount Rushmore], the shrine of hypocrisy.
Russell Means
If I want my people to be free, Americans have to be free.
Russell Means
So I'd much rather get across the concept of freedom. It's what's important to Indian children. The only way you can be free is to know is that you are worthwhile as a distinct human being. Otherwise you become what the colonizers have designed, and that is a lemming. Get in line, punch all the right keys, and die.
Russell Means
If you learn from an experience, that's good - so nothing bad happened to you.
Russell Means
It’s just unconscionable that America has become so stupid.
Russell Means
'Indian policy' has now been brought down upon the American people, and the American people are the new Indians of the 21st Century.
Russell Means
Indian people are relics we do not exist in the present.
Russell Means
Hollywood hasn't changed. It is the most racist, anti-Indian institution in the world.
Russell Means
In the government schools, which are referred to as public schools, Indian policy has been instituted there, and its a policy where they do not encourage, in fact, discourage, critical thinking and the creation of ideas and public education.
Russell Means
Being is a spiritual proposition. Gaining is a material act. Traditionally, American Indians have always attempted to be the best people they could. Part of that spiritual process was and is to give away wealth, to discard wealth in order not to gain.
Russell Means
I find freedom to be the most important issue facing any human being today, because without freedom, then life is pointless. The more dependent you become on centralized power, the more easily you are lead around.
Russell Means
That's our charge as ancestors of unborn generations: to once again become free.
Russell Means
It takes a strong effort on the part of each American Indian not to become Europeanized. The strength for this effort can only come from the traditional ways, the traditional values that our elders retain.
Russell Means
I knew at that young age that going to the Bureau of Indian Affairs was useless, absolutely useless. I grew up having no faith in the bureaucracy of government.
Russell Means
