You want to stroll right into a bar in Seattle as a proud American, but you also need to stop America from utilizing Guam to strengthen itself. You want to take advantage of all the little pleasures of being an American, without supporting the ideology and global power of America. I suppose your frustration goes to increase till you do some soul searching. That decision isn’t made by a bouncer at a bar.
If you need people to find out about our islands then be a geography or historical past instructor. If you need to rant about problems that can simply be avoided then don’t reap the benefits of the opportunities that the mainland has to offer and go back to your island.
Face it Chamorro navy men, you didn’t be a part of the navy to battle on your peoples safety. You did it since you envied somebody having a better life than you imagined your future to be when you remained on Guam. three) You’re a tiny island in the middle of nowhere, decide your poison and live with it. If not for the USA you’d be an extinct tradition executed by the Japanese, Chinese, Spanish or whomever wished to take control of your island since you’re unable to defend yourself. I love the Chamorro individuals and their culture however inciting people to action via error and hatred is sad.
The small legislature on Guam at the time thought that the only way the individuals of Guam can have a say in Guam’s political, economical, and social affairs and thus Guam’s future was for the US to provide them rights via citizenship. Citizenship was the vehicle to degree the enjoying field between the naval governors and the people. The historical background of the chronic disenfranchisement of Pacific Islanders by the U.S. is solely supposed to depict a development that continues to this present day.
I perceive the frustration and irritation that folks from US territories face when presenting our IDs. But why are you living a state with out an ID from that state? I stay in las vegas and the first thing I did was getting a neighborhood ID. I know a lot of people do not know what guam is so why hassle explaining.
Action ought to be encouraged beacuse of desire and choices for progress not hatred of previous. Speak to the elders, oh wait, you most likely have lived there for 15 years and never discovered to appreciate the indigenous tradition and the folks enough to a minimum of be taught one complete sentence. There is a stage of “satisfaction” that lots of islanders appear to take overboard.
Well mentioned Michael, people tend to go away out facts such because the one you pointed out concerning the Spanish. Though i’m not from Guam, i married a Chamorro women that i like with all my coronary heart and i positively need my children to know their heritage but, i additionally don’t want them walking through life indignant either. Some people overlook that a few of these small locations, some people may not know the place that is at and they’re miseducated slightly bit. The Organic Act of 1950 was one thing crafted particularly to appease the individuals of Guam and cement the US’s function on the island. The Organic Act was not even written by any person from Guam.
You are mad that you are not acknowledged as American, but you also are mad that the Americans deserted you earlier than WWII. You want to be recognized good as an American citizen, however you want an apology from America for all that harm that they have carried out to your culture and island.
The Organic Act didn’t permit for self-government as the folks of Guam believed it did. Still at present, Guam is managed by the division of the interiors.
As someone who supports our political, cultural and non secular re-unification, It could be confusing to me at occasions the way to tackle the truth that we are presently separated in many ways, while nonetheless dreaming in the direction of chamorro unity. In the end I determined introducing one other island name can be complicated to individuals who know nothing in regards to the Marianas and the multiple islands we descend from, and the ways we’ve been politically divided by imperial forces. No matter the place your at, you just have comply.
