Caution: Talks about those who died in Cambodia's killing fields.
• Leigh Dundas, human rights attorney and activist, shares a story about her family's trip to Cambodia's Killing Fields with her young daughter. Bones are still rising 50 years post-war. She told her how Communist governments lie to the people, kill their own people, cause poverty, and how extreme poverty leads to sex trafficking in Cambodia, the US and all over the world.
**Watch the full interview (links below) to learn how to prevent it in the US and worldwide. Check out her course and book, too, about how to stop sex trafficking and prevent it in our neighborhoods, and how to stop overzealous and sometimes unelected government officials.
Del Bigtree Speaking at Robert F. Kennedy Pres. Rally
Season 5
Wednesday, May 29, 2024 • Duration 00:26
Del Bigtree from TheHighwire.com (and now Robert F Kennedy Junior's press secretary) speaks at the recent Presidential candidate rally near Denver, Colorado, on May 19, 2024. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is an independent Presidential candidate for the 2024 election. He is set apart from the standard two party system. He is trying to get his name printed on the ballots in Colorado and elsewhere, and you can help with your signature, and funding. (Otherwise he would be a write in candidate with a blank line on the ballot.) Kennedy spoke that day about China's move into world power, and also how chronic illness in the US is so widespread that it is now an economic issue. (I can't believe we have any candidate even talking about this which is amazing!! And I agree!) Choose someone who can get the job done, not dumb or dumber. Kennedy will be returning in September to the Denver, Colorado, area. Check out Del Bigtree's work at the links Informed Consent Action Network and above, TheHighwire.com. He and his team have done so much all of us who want to keep our Constitutional and medical freedoms.

Plant Spirit Medicine #2
Season 2 · Episode 5
Friday, November 19, 2021 • Duration 14:53
What is Plant Spirit Medicine? Join speaker Diana Sproul as she describes plant spirit medicine as explained in Eliot Cowan's book of the same name. Plants, trees, rain, lightning and the Chinese elements (like water, metal, earth) are each represented by a consciousness. These may appear through meditation or dreaming in human, animal, insect or other form. Healing an imbalance or lack of a certain element in a person's spiritual make-up and life can help a person become well and whole again without addressing the illness itself. The book is highly recommended.
The author says that is ordinary, and that all of us can learn to do what he does. Author Eliot Cowan trains students at the Blue Deer Center in New York state (http://www.BlueDeer.org). On Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bluedeercenter
