Amazing, I have been blessed to have two people come into my family and life who are partly Native Indian and one is from this amazing proud tribe...both are very proud and very strong individuals...I am honoured to have recieved the name 'Brighteyes' from my dearest friend and feel part of this beautiful family:)...
My Great Grandmother was Blackfoot or half Blackfoot.... At a family reunion when I was very very young, I was supposed to get a picture taken with her. She came and spoke to me before the picture was to be taken, and told me that I look like her. I cried terribly and refused to go near her. I did not think I looked like an old woman... Today... I wish I had that picture.
funny thing about this clip you made of your blackfeet rez i use to have a trailor like that yellow and white one you could tell witch way the wind was blowing on any given day lol
@haileykitty03 Actually there isnt in Canada they call them blackfoot and in the u.s. there the blackfeet in the u.s. it is the peigan tribe and in Canada it is the blackfoot(siksika) and the Kainai(blood) tribes but there all part of the blackfoot confederacy...
My friends, I experienced a spiritual awakening of profound proportions. At the beginning I met a Native American Woman in Austin Texas. We knew each other for less than 48 hours. As I was leaving she insisted that I take her to her home. She ran inside and came out a said William I want you to have this and carry it with you, It took me a long time to earn this but I want to give it to you. She gave me her Eagle Feather. See where that leads me. mercycal.com I need help.
I'm Mex/American and just one year ago I learned a lot about Indian reservation - not through regular schooling but through my chicanos class! So sad that Americans are not taught the true history in elementary school, you only hear about Christopher Colombus and the great White genious inventors that we should supposedly look up to.
Because America wants everyone to be assimulated into the culture. Not only that, but the US does not like to talk about it's dark and bloody history when it comes to the USA doing it.
I am part Native American and have been told I look Native but I want to know if I really do or if it's a ridiculous claim? I have been told my mother is 1/4 possibly more Cherokee Indian and my father's mother was 1/4 Indian (do not know what tribe) and I want to know If I look Indian to you.
If your skin is the wrong color, you are welcome to visit Browning anyway. You just have to show the proper respect and lots and lots of guilt. If you don't want crawl in the dirt and wallow in white guilt, then this is not the place for you.
I came back to Browning for a visit and 99% of the people I spoke with had nothing but negative things to say about Browning. Than I saw their FaceBook and MySpace profiles talking about how much they love it. Made me think they're honest to people they know, but lie to make others (white people, outsiders,etc.) to make it seem like it's a good place to live, which is common from what I hear.

Can anyone tell me if the name "Killroy" has any relation to blackfoot tribe? My father told us when we were young, that we were decendants some how.. but yet now that we are older and we ask.. he refuses to give us his fathers information so we can look up our family tree.. So... Anyone know?? (if it helps.. he was born in Detroit MI.. although so i am seeing most come from canada or montana so i am not sure)
Incredible stuff! I'm part Blackfoot myself. And the history behind the nation of tribes is amazing to me. Eventually, I'd love to try and track down my family tree and learn about this part of it as well. Perhaps some day, I'll try and travel up there. I've yet to go to any of the Western or mid-western states though. Been reading a fair bit about the Blackfoot nation and still am trying to learn more.
I am white, but I met one of the people that impressed me most in my life. His name was Micky Fish. He was the last of the old cowboys. He wanted to adopt me into the tribe, but I begged off. They are great people.
It's too bad you didnt' get pictures of the whole town...tribal offices, new federal building, postal office, stores, the gas stations, motels, the other neighborhoods outside of town, the new community college, the hospital, schools as well as a new high school, etc. All this showed was a few houses and trailors and scenary.
I really enjoyed this video--was this in Montana? You may enjoy a video I made in tribute to Chief Bisco Wolf, chief of council of 44 of Northern Cheyenne--my video is called MY TRIP TO NORTHERN CHEYENNE REZ... I just loved the area--so beautiful--Bisco is in poor health now..your video is great--really enjoyed it
Ha! you think we still live in tipi's, i dont see you guys dress the same since 1840! and if you came to the rez i bet somebody would say Oki nistonitaniko! and welcome you!
Yes, marshmilo3 - you're right. I made that film and I remember, when I was first time in Browning, that everything saw diferent than in Europe. Maybe You have jeans, CD's, cars, cellphones, but they are only things. There are two aspects of culture - material and spirituality. First is changing very fast now, second less. Blackfeet have still they own culture - at least I personally see it in this way. And LTLauriz88 - we have XXI age, think! Think, think!!
I'm part blackfoot, part iroquois, as well as many other european things.. If I wanted to visit here and learn about my blackfoot heritage and see their reservation and meet some of them would they be receptive to that, even though I'm not obviously native?
I have always wanted to visit the reservations of the Blackfoot and Iroquois. I am very curious about them.
That is seriously not the Indians i read about in a book written back in 1840's!!! And this seriously does not look like anything from the movie : Dances With Wolves!!! I hate America for americanising the Native Americans, The Great horse culture is gone,theyre culture is gone,everything about them is gone,They look like americans now!!! And i always wanted to meet Indians and maybe see one of their camp villages,this was a big turnoff :(
yes i agree in movies it always sounds more exhilarating. But then the white population didn't live the same way they do now. Times change, people has to change to keep up with progress. The world is changing to fast en cultures are disappearing it's a shame really. And it's definately ashame that the indian population still live in under developed reservations!
do Siksika want political and moral back up? then visit youre far off cousins and tell them everything that was done to you and the other tribes. here are youre cousins! watch this vid>>>>>>>
"Ulytau - Jumyr kylysh"......................welcome to Kazahkstan!
I was in Browning on the Blackfeet Reservation last summer, its huge, bigger than the state of Delaware... very interesting place with beautiful scenery. They don't seem to like white people too much though... not that I can really blame them too much for that.
I am half Blackfeet and I am proud of my heritage, my Grandmother wasnt to fond of us and I never saw her much but I understand her ways, My sister and brother are also proud of thier heritage, I must come to the reservation next summer, may not have many more so I have to make it this summer!
historical note from a book: a big Kainai dude back in the old days managed to get "Chainmail"!! in trade somehow. obviously he was untouchable in many fights. until one of The Many Children clan nailed him in the armpit under the chainmail. it happened like in 1840's i think.....anyway heres what he wore!......video: (Tyr-Regin Smiour)......scenes from big Viking re-enactment festival. famous Pagan Folk-Metal band,"Tyr" is from Faroe Islands.
wtf he did show the 3 best things in browning...taco johns, subway, and the town dump (pump)...hwy 2 west outta browning is the best space cruise road!!!
Where do people put those poor horses in winter when it is 20 degrees or subzero and a blizzard on? Those poor animals....please tell me they at least put them a barn or warehouse with insulation and blankets......
If not....this is abuse...
on YOUTUBE search, type in: Walmart abuse. After watching the first video or 2 on fish, watch the videos on the torture, skinning alive of all animaals, cats, dogs, In China, Asia and MiddleEast. These men are laughing as they skin these animls alive.
oh suck it up- My family's farm does business with Walmart- and they're not out to get the world like all you ridiculous people think. Animals are designed to tough out the winters- that's why they're not extinct. Why don't you concern yourself with more pressing matters such as getting abortion to be illegal- if you want to talk about torture- there something that needs taken care of.
My grandpa was Blackfoot- I would love to visit the reservation
Here where I live, we have mountain tops, I also see that they have monutains, but it's in one dirextion and the other direction is low and flat. I have not been up there before.
Im blackfoot and cherokee too!!! Through my ancestors maybe we r related. LOL I wish i could go to pow-wows and dance and sing :(, i don't know if they would have me...
I am South East Asian and I have been exposed to Native American culture since I was 3 years old by my late father.I have tremendous respect and love for Native American people and culture.God bless you always....
