The movie Avatar

The movie Avatar is thought provoking. There is a difference between imperialism and migration. Migration is good and enriches the land mostly whereas imperialism destroys the very fabric of the land. The spiritual tree representing the balance of life was brilliant. Native people understand a land to its very roots and with them thrive native plants and animals. Imperialism destroy not only the people but also the flora and fauna because they have no understanding of it. Imperialists begin to learn from scratch what natives know for thousands of years and have much catching up to do. In that process they may destroy some delicate balances which may destroy the very earth. Earth really is a small percentage of land in a huge ocean. Its best to be willing to pay for what you want instead of trying to grab it at gun point.
