THE CANARY EFFECT Official Trailer from Bastard Fairy Films

[DaudMusa]

Absolutely Great Documentary

[CraniumOnEmpty]

You know... I just got an idea of why there are so many people scared of UFOs.

[nopushbutton]

@sufiwannabe

This movie in particular is only about the Natives of what is now the United States, if I recall correctly.

[harvardjrnl]

I was visiting the University of Montana's Native Department and watched this video. It is amazing the bias this movie had against Republicans, hence it was deemed inappropriate due to a lot of misleading and false statements. In particular the directors/producers fail to mention that the Democrats, under Andrew Jackson, were responsible for the Indian Removal Act putting our ancestors/us on current reservations and stripping us from our land.

1 little 2 little 3 little Indians 4 little 5 little 6 little Indians! Man I love this song! Been singing it all day!

[dakota4928]

Wow, this conflict seems to have been completely blown out of proportion.

[Anaris10]

Dawnsmomster,You need to get a grip!..As you can tell,your words have offended many Indigenous people and the word is going out.....

[dawnsmomster]

My tongue-in-cheek response to someone else's question about political correctness was misunderstood, and I apologize profusely to anyone who was offended.

[mgproductions2007]

looks fucking brilliant.

[carbs101]

Thou shall not steal.

[54spiritedwill54]

This looks incredible

[lisatime]

losing hope.. is the first step to defeat..

i believe there are better times ahead. and that we shouldn't be afraid to feel and express what we are feeling.. it's the only way to heal together.

[DeadBirdCitizen]

Poor people. We fucked them, now the tribal governments are fucking them. Fucked by us, fucked by their own people...they are in a bad way, and always will be. And there's no good solution.

[elguerreromuisca]

no, there is one solution, revolution, the way leonard paltier style....thats the solution.....

[leokills]

Time for healing. Indians must heal for survival. non-Indians especially, need to heal. Nobody wants to perpetuate evil.

[DJB6483]

NATIVE AMERICANS .. let's try 2 B politically correct ? the American was attached by the government .. "politically speaking"

Spanish American,Native American,Afro-American.. not ALL whom I might add have afro's, Asian American DUH ! We are all Americans ! EQUAL !? never .. rich, poor, we will all live & also we shall all perish as the land and peoples did.

[leokills]

we all need to heal

[greekgoddess13]

lets try to be more politically correct they are Indigenous. not "Indians" or "native americans"

[dawnsmomster]

LOL. I think at least one of the people involved in making that little film is a native american indiginous injun.

[greekgoddess13]

i dont think that this is very funny. native american isnt the correct term either. and injun is slang...

[Goyathalay]

yes, one of the producers is Yellow Thunder Woman, you fucking rat. what the fuck does that prove? you dont trust it because it is produced by someone of a certain race? would you refer to a african producer of a movie about the african slave trade as a nigger? wouldnt be surprised. kindly go fuck yourself.

[dawnsmomster]

Goyathaly, I just received this comment from you, and I apologize for any offense that I may have given. My response was meant as a 'tongue-in-cheek answer to xeneric's question about why it's offensive to say native american, but apparently it was misunderstood; and perhaps it is a mistake to use the term "native american," after all. You have my humblest apologies.

[Goyathalay]

i cant even remember the full context of this discussion, but thanks

[greekgoddess13]

dawnsmomster, i hope that you listen to what goyathalay had to say. it is just as bad and degrading to call the indigenous people OF THIS LAND: "injuns," "red-skins," native americans," etc. I would like to see you call an african a nigger and see what happens to you....

please go fuck yourself and reflect on the horrible genocide the europeans inflicted. you sick bitch....

[xeneric]

Forgive my ignorance, Why is it offensive to say native american?

[AdawehiMeliLayton]

Depends whom you are talking to.

Some like just Native.

Some like First Nations.

Some like to be called by their Tribal Nation like Cherokee or Tsalagi.

Just depends whom you are talking to.

:)

[dawnsmomster]

I apologize that this reply offended anyone. It was intended somewhat "tongue-in-cheek" and I did not mean to hurt anyone's feelings. I feel terrible for upsetting anyone in this way. I had absolutely no intention of making a racial slur, and I do not think of indiginous americans as "injuns." I am very embarrassed that that is what came across here. It truly was a tongue-in-cheek comment, not intended as a racist remark, but understandably misperceived.

[dawnsmomster]

Hi there, greekgoddess13. My apologies for not getting back to you sooner. I just realized that a tongue-in-cheek comment I made in response to a question was misunderstood. Perhaps I myself do not understand how "Native American" is offensive, but I did not intend to give offense regarding the use of "injun." It was a tongu-in-cheek response to the question about "what's offensive about using the term native american." I apologize for any offense given; it was not intended.

[FujiGoose]

This has never really been a topic that has interested me - But this Trailer makes me want to watch this film. Maybe the Bastard Fairys have something to do with it :ﾉ

[Sekter12]

native americans owned practically half of the united states. this is native land!:}

[DJB6483]

half ? u idiot all America was Native lands ..

[thamuddler]

moral of story: white man bad, red man crushed. now time for the great cleansing..

[missbaclash]

I love this trailer as well as the film its not BS, it tells it how it is, I just want to say thanks to the brilliant minds of Robin Davey and yellow Thunder Woman at least someone wants to give truth to history.

[GeorgeWsSphincter]

I am a Biker, people make judgements on me because of what I look like. In the Air Force, people made judgements of what I looked like then. I am still the same person, but not looked like the same. Just because people don't understand us they fear us. People did not take the time to understand the Native Americans and destroyed them out of fear. From what I understand, the Great Spirit and the Earth has a place for everything and everyone. Be nice if everyone could get on would'nt it?

[GeorgeWsSphincter]

As a white person, I have no word to give that would make an ounce of difference to the continuing rape and genocide of an entire people. Words of apology are hollow sounding because it should not have happened. The American people should be ashamed of what they did and what they are still doing. I have no ancestor that has ever stood in America, (in spite of what my profile says), and yet I still feel shamed at what the whites did. We do it by making judgements on what people look like still.

[Morthund]

Apologies are worth a shit in my view. Have you fucked up any indigenous peoples? Have I? Why should we have to apologise then? However we DO have to fix a fucked up situation. This costs. Both money (implementing changes and programs) and time (listening to shat-upon peoples, and respecting what they suggest to try rectify things) Oppression of people has been practised by many of the "oppressed" natives that we whites love to romanticise. Its then up to altruistic people to try to do something

[GeorgeWsSphincter]

Morthund. Why apologise? Because we are able to!!! Thats why. I read, I know full well what the tribes did to each other. They still hate each other now. There was no 'White romantisism' as you would have it, in my statement and I am certainly not altruistic, but would you not appreciate the sentiment of an apology? H7

[Morthund]

I see your point, i guess there's a reason for why most indigenous fucked upon people (like in my native Australia) are asking for an apology. But still, do I have to apologise for the shit that my parents did? Does my son have to apologise to the kids of my teenage girlfriends that I behaved shitty to? That's the same logic. I cant get my head around that. I am altruistic (or at least try to be) and if Im going to try to do the right thing, should I have to say I apologise for being white too?

[GeorgeWsSphincter]

Ha, I see your point. Well they say the road to hell is paved with good intentions. I was a git to some, well most of my girlfriends when I was growing up and I have just had a vision of my boy apologising on my part. On the plus side, at least I only treated them badly by seeing loads at the same time. Genocide in the name of 'Civilised European way of life', was'nt part of my courtship, so I guess they all got off lightly there. Saves my boy an apology! Humans are bastards whatever the colour.

[Morthund]

Hmm, I agree that genocide does tend to inflame the emotions, and I guess I havent got a clue about how it feels to have a rough life because of how someone else's grandparents treated mine (Im thinking of the Aboriginals that used to hang around the the intersection down from where I lived). I guess an apology doesnt cost THAT much, after having slept on it.. My white philosophising may be 'right' in my mind, but whats right and whats fair COULD be different here If ones life is fucked.

[Morthund]

But I still gotta say that actions speak louder than words when restitution are concerned, and it sort of tweaks my mental alarm bells when we further propagate the idea of race when one 'race' has to apologise to another one. When it was the concept of race that allowed and justified the original atrocities. Still, as I said, I guess an apology doesnt cost THAT much if thats whats wanted. Which I have to admit is what many oringinal Austalians want. Check out Penn & Tellers Bullshit Restitution

[disanator]

Is there are site online where I can watch this? I cant find it where I am living right now..

[ashalovesbk]

I saw this movie at the TriBeCa film fest a few years back. Love it!!!!

[pokemon20035150]

Great video. I'm saving my pennies for this one.

[cracks21229]

Major piece of work here. Great job, Bastards!

[travism420]

deep

[neons99]

This shit gives me chills. I'm not even fucking kidding.

[ceppy]

I advise everyone to go live on a reservation for a year. I lived at a mission on the Navajo Indian reservation for a year when I was 17 before college. It was the best and worst time of my life. It was very peaceful there though. Most of the Navajo people lived in poverty. I helped them rebuild their houses, get running water, and made some wonderful friends. The indian people are a strong people. I am saddened at what our forefathers did to them.

[dangerousprimate]

nicely put ceppy,stay cool!

[AthmanUk]

What about us in the UK who want to buy it?

[trulyjulie]

This looks incredible....can't wait to get it. Thank you for making such a powerful and important piece! ROCK ON BASTARDS!!!

[Mynda23]

yea i cant wait till payday... you know im buying it!

[duckofdeath623]

Where can I buy this movie?

[Grimace]

I can't wait to see this movie. I live in Canada and there is a big problem here as well. I wish that someone up here would make a documentary like this here. When I saw that bottle of water it really struck home. We to as a nation are not providing adequate drinking water to the native people, as well we have the same drug, alcohol, gambling problems that in the native community as you.

[Grimace]

We may have not had the mass killings like your nation. I am not saying that it didn't happen, but we did have something just as bad; The Catholic Church! they abducted native children from their homes and forced them into Catholic schools, and or adopted b white families, where they were subjected to unthinkable abuses

[mddawson1]

The Australian government did exactly the same to our indigenous population. There wasn't the wholesale slaughter like in the US but there was cultural genocide. They tried to turn them into "good white folk" but without all the white folks rights.

[mddawson1]

Will it be available through Amazon?
