night at the Bordello in Oakland, complete with three hundred guests,
twenty DJs spinning thumping techno and bass, dancers, a fashion show,
micro-massages, raw food, an absinthe bar, and coconuts. Instead, the
event ended in tears.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.eastbayexpress.com/music/burners_torched_over_native_party/Content?oid=954007"><P>More than fifty Bay Area Native American rights activists converged
on the historic East Oakland property at 9:30 p.m. to ensure the
shutdown of popular Burning Man group Visionary Village's "Go Native!"
party. The fired-up Hopis, Kiowas and other tribal members spent more
than four hours lecturing the handful of white, college-class Burners
about cultural sensitivity until some of them simply broke down crying.
The emotional crescendo capped a month-long saga that started with a
tone-deaf dance party flyer, led to an Internet flame war and a public
excoriation of Visionary Village's young, neo-hippy leaders before real
tribal elders in the East Bay demanded a cancellation of the event.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/676AEBF1-9991-4CDF-A7C8-FE7A72B98361/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
