I feel like it's a little overwritten. The first couple paragraphs work at setting up a more traditional narrative story with dialogue and characters and all that jazz but these paragraphs go on and on without telling us nearly enough information to justify their length. I'd say pare this down by a lot and break up the descriptive paragraphs with scenes of dialogue and shorter action. No vote for now, want to see what you do with this.
Whether you like it or not, history is on our side. We will bury you!
