MIM received a copy of this poster made by the New Orleans RAIL 
chapter. The poster includes a letter from a reactionary who saw 
RAIL's organizing. We encourage readers to contact us and help 
build opposition to oppression by distributing MIM Notes, flyers

NOTE ON TERMINOLOGY 

why RAIL calls white settler amerika

 WHITE SETTLER AMERIKA 

"OK I read your flyer that was oh-so-prominetely placed on the 
Tulane campus and have come to the conclusion that you people not 
only have no sense of love for your country, you have no 
comprehension of social darwinism. The Indians in North America 
were backward, ignorant, polytheistic and savage. Without European 
inventions, we would still be eating raw meat and/or being 
cannibals, scalping each other, etc. The Indians didn't even have 
the wheel, I mean these were some stupid people. I'm sure you will 
immediately flame me for my love of my country, "Amerikka" as you 
would say, but please spare me the insults. Feel free to tell you 
leaders in North Commurea, CommCuba, CommChina, and VietCom that 
yes, there are still some blue-blooded Americans here willing to 
fight and destroy the communist threat. Thank you."
