Grand Entry Thunder Nations Pow Wow - Berlin Germany

[sonnydwkl]

Me personally, I don't mind this because I think they are showing that they like our activities. Not even our own people like Pow-Wows. I don't judge and I don't mind this. It's rather cool if you ask me. Like I said before, if most Pow-Wows were like stacked this where I live, I would love local Pow-Wows. lol. It's pretty sad, when only 3 drums out of 12-15 are the only drums that rock out with our cock out. lmfao!

[tanblonde1]

I have travelled to Europe several times and have lived there from 1980-83. I truely appreciate how the European people have enjoyed our Culture. They respect it more than we as Native American people do. There's some in Europe who make money from our Culture , but it Happens in Canada and USA. , by our own kind! How as people can we understand each other if we are not able to share our cultures with others?I am a Cree from Canada!Thanks u Europeans who appreciate us!

[whitefishjrssinger]

Your an idiot. How can you say that a European understand our culture more than us. Indian is Indian peiod..Indian is not German.

[shidane29]

[iLLEAGLE6]

dont let the negative comments of corn jo or loves to pow wow derail your intentions in any shape or form, seems they werent there when the awesome presence was handin out the 7 Teachings, especially about Humility and Respect...keep it up...and someday id love to come to a pow wow over there.

[rsoul66]

I am a First Nations person, and I think these people and others like them honour our native culture. Personally I would rather have non-natives doing this, than calling down ndns, and making fun of us by calling us wagon burners or dancing around whooping, slapping their mouths, and chanting hey-hey-ye-ye-hey-ye... at least through these, people are becoming more aware of traditions and learning respect. If only some of our people were so open minded.

[wuliechsin]

Form my expernices, People in Europe have been fasinated with NDN's since the 1600's when Pocohants came to London. Since then they have been trying to learn NDN Culture and ways. Some are doing a good job and some are not. As long as they dont claim to be native and are doing thing in a respectful manner and really want to learn I do not have a problem with it. It's only when they turn into a hobbyist and doing things their ways and claimimg to be Native is when I have a problem with it.

[cwrong]

pocohantas died of disease not long after she was brought to europe

[loves2powwow]

Get into your own culture people! If you respect our culture sooo much then stop trying to be us! Man, your a bunch of lost people!

[Ibogaineibogods]

Emulation is the greatest form of flattery that leads to connection and ultimately understanding, many "Europeans" are adrift

lost in life a sterile way disassociated from their ancestors,however, there are those who continue a spiritual existance, also those of us who know the old ways,it is as fragile as a flame in the wind,yet it has endured the millenia and its time is coming

as many find their true paths in life and return to that which was forgotten.

They are seeking,..that is all

[whitefishjrssinger]

You are an idiot. this is insulting..your probaably a german masquerading. Go start another halocaust you idiot.

[dlipecki]

In Europe for thirty years they are being organised Powwow.

Some are being organised with the help of Native Americans.

In Poland about powwow, for the culture and the tradition we are learning from Native Americansns.

We are getting along with people very much from the Blackfeet Nation from Browning in Montana.

All the time we are learning and we happen to make errors at our Powwows.

Don't judge us strictly.

We are interested in a culture of Native Americans with the great respect.

[cornejofamily]

IS THIS A JOKE? Why would people who claim to love and respect someone's culture...put on such a insulting custom party. Wouldn't thier time be better spent on seeing a documentary on our culture...or learn more on how we are HUMANS that face REAL issues.

I mean...I love the african culture, but I wouldn't organize a party where we all wear black face and afros and dance to african drums...and still claim I love the culture.
