Missionary early arrivals almost destroyed the indigenous culture and art here in Alaska according to a presentation I heard this morning. Totem poles were family histories, but mistaken as hesthen religious symbols and the art form almost destroyed.

As a native Hawaiian I've seen the damage they've done. Their sons were worse they disenfranchised the Hawaiians and stole their country out from under them.

I do not support missionaries...if they were there to help with health or food/water shortages fine, but they are there to ‘save souls,’ mostly and in the process, disrupt cultures!

Missionary ism is designed to destroy existing cultures that are considered inferior. Still goes on today. Sick.

Much of it was destroyed, sad to say.
