keep poor families off of S. Huntingdon Ave.,
in reality it is only their economic interests that collide.  The proposed development of the former Native
American Center of Boston into a housing development that will make the filthy
rich even richer continues a tradition hundreds of years old; that is the
concentration of land ownership in an ever small number of hands. Whether
gotten by outright war against people who did not recognize the right to own
Mother Earth or by using wealth won by rigging the political system,
controlling land has always been a steady route to power, especially for
colonists.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">We cannot return the land (or children) of Native Americans
stolen by white settlers, but we can demand that this land not be the spoils of
today’s economic invaders. We call for both the developments proposed for S.
  Huntingdon St. to be filled by owner-occupied
triple-deckers, a home-grown remedy to poverty with a proven record. Spread the
