State of the Nation from Karyu Pawl

6/3/2020

Krro krro, from time to time Paul writes a post about current events entirely in Na'vi on Naviteri. This week, he took time to address the current state of America in an empathetic but realistic analysis of the nationwide protests and riots in the wake of George Floyd's wrongful death. You can read the post entirely in Na'vi, but we wanted to provide an English translation for AVATAR fans who don't speak the language. You can find it below. Highlight it to read it (to avoid spoiling it for those who want to try to translate it themselves.)

My beloved friends, Needless to say this blog's purpose is to talk about the Na'vi Language. Sometimes, however, I feel that I must write about other matters.

Last week, we who are in America watched while one law enforcer killed a man, without reason, slowly, cruelly. That person that was killed had brown skin, the killer had white. Many such bad actions have happened many times in our history, but this one happened before our eyes. This terrible, terrible action has made us cry, then protest. The communal protests that are increasing every day are completely fair.

But now, something else is also at our large cities: violence. There are people who think "For me, life is painful, so I will make your life painful as well. For me there isn't justice, so I'll make you be miserable as well." They steal, they burn, they destroy. I feel that my country is exploding.

And while these terrible things continue to happen, the dangerous disease continues to spread.

Oh to have a leader who can help, one who has healing words. Sadly, we don't have a leader such as this. For leadership, the leader that exists isn't worthy one bit.

In a manner that I wrote about several years ago, this foolish person loves himself only, peace in the country doesn't matter to him. He thinks that the best remedy for violence is more violence.

How can one make this existence in America better? I don't know. But one thing is clear:

Roughly 384 years ago in this land, one planted a bad tree and made it grow. That tree has become tall. It has given us bitter fruit. And we are eating that fruit today.

​from Paul
Fìtsap tstunwi livu. Be kind to each other.
