I hope this will come to pass. I'm not Native American, though you could call me a native wannabe. I feel a great affinity for Native American spirituality and solidarity with your survival. Your culture has so much to teach us lost Europeans.

I also hope that one day our children will be able to mix and play together without worrying what colour of skin they are or what social or cultural background they are, I feel lucky to have been taught by my parents to embrace diversity instead of fearing it.
mid next year I am moving to the USA with my wife and I would like to open her family up to other cultures. USA such a beautiful country with beautiful people , but why not stand united like we are( yes I am counting myself in :) meant
This is beautiful. I am of mixed lineage, and I am very proud of both my mother's Native heritage,and my father's Irish heritage. I stand behind the fight for dignity of the indigenous peoples. Keep educating and keep moving forward.
we are domed always have been since they came here...just like they do... glorified it and still making us americanized .. u cant change my mind.. let them give back land we lost and let us make our own land and rules then i might start believing..never happening i know.. but im sure if a dissaster happen ..we see who lives on

I do believe our day is approaching and I am excited and exhilerated to see it happening. Good people from all across our Mother Earth need to come together and be included! They support our cause, we need them!
I want to create a website to search and document even the slightest Native blood in our citizens. When we increase our numbers we will have a voice.
Thank you very much for your kind words. I wish the Obama Administration would sign on to the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. That would be something for sure... Your idea about defining and reclaiming our own Citizenship is a great one! You'd have my support... I hope that you had a great summer!
I just wanted to say thank you for this - it's inspiring - I'm latin american of Mapuche heritage - our people know all about the struggle. my children are mixed my husband is Plains Cree - my heart and soul is committed to your people's struggle because it is our own - we're strong as one... as our people say "the people united will never be defeated" stay strong - I wanted to ask is that you speaking? who's the voice
Solly! have you any idea how inspired your speech is? I mean seriously - it's the most eloquent and pasionate speech I've heard in a long time - the native communities need speakers like you - you're a born leader - keep going forward strong and inspiring your people with strong words. Much respect and peace to you

INTERVIEW WITH A NATIVE AMERICAN BAHAI-AMERICAN INDIAN
This is so beautifull i have many native friends i am from Scotland and in love with my Apache warrior he is in az just now im here in France but we will be together soon the only thing scares the hell out of me is that he wants me to live like an Apache dont know if im strong enough for that all though im a very strong person .Wont be easy for sure as he lives the old Apache way and lives of the land no more tea or coffee for me gees love this video
my kookum just passed away. this song is for her. she never tried to live in the past and she lived the best she could and im proud of her.she was a former residential student but they never broke her spirit .this is for my special kookum.
I think that it is the natural course for us to get closer to nature and we are beginning to see it now with this whole green movement. It creates oppurtuinity, saves resources, protects the planet, cleans the enviroment, increases the quality of life for everyone
when i liten to this song i think about our ancestors struggling to keep the balance and harmony that was apbrubly destroyed. through these trails we learned to be more of who we are in nature. at least for some. it defies forgiveness and strength to move on to a better road and equality through hard times.
I am Aztec, Apache, and American(white). These cultures all were at war with each other. I never had the luxury to take sides. But I do know that the Natives lived as one with nature. A civilization that will never be understood by greedy, materialistic, outsiders
Damase19, really and truly i don't even consider us American Indian or Native American because we are older then America and Canada we are native to this beautiful country. and REAL indians are from INDIA *wink* lol
What doesn't make sense to me about columbus is this.How in the hell do you "discover" land when someone is already on it?It's like sinbad,the comedian(not pirate),once said "It's like walking onto somebodys porch and saying 'I discovered this porch'"lol.Good analogy from one of my fave comedians.Beautiful song too!Thanks for posting this video Solomon Cyr.
I think it would all come down to the idea that the "civilized world" (their words, not mine) saw the Native Americans as savages, therefore their being there first didn't matter. I hate the fact that we still have a Columbus Day today - I mean, really, he was a horrible man.
I agree with you finch. I think the we are living right now by destroying nature is not civilized at all. We should live in harmony with nature. I believe there will be a time when our descendants will think of us as Savages and uncivilized who didn't understand the world at all. Its just the matter of time.
Having Columbus Day is the equivalent of celebrating Hitler for his Genocide of the Jewish people - Enough is enough of this ignorance of celebrating criminals and murderers as if they're heroes - absolutely ridiculous - Power to the people, Native and all others who are to this day being abused and oppressed by the powers that be - "darling don't cry" we will right the wrongs
Aaniin my brother. Very powerful words you gave at the beginning of this video. Demonstrates the struggle of our people everywhere. We must fight not only for ourselves but for the respect and dignity of our grandmothers and grandfathers. I will fight for this as long as I am on our mother earth. Gchi Miigwetch ndi Niichkenh
Beautiful video and confident message.Glory to all great native American people and their great leaders, amog others, Red Cloud, Sitting Bull, Satanta, Seattle, Geronimo, Crazy Horse.
Aaniin, ezhi ayaayaan my brothers and sisters! This is an awesome video. We all, not just nishnabes, have to strive to be better everyday so that we leave this world a better place for our little ones. Nzaagaan to all my brothers and sisters in this world. We are all one and need to unite against the tyrannical rulers of this world. Bbaamapii Gwaabmin.
if you WANT to know native americans,travel around the all american continent and you will have a sorprise,the kind of people they are.wonderfull people,a cant not xplain my self how this people can be so nice whit the people who destryeD their ,EVERYTHING but for me is not a sorprise becose i know them and they are just like that.nice by nature thats the reason white man destruyed them.They dont fell respect for nothing.
this really makes me think of what our ancestors went through trying to fight for our rights...it's really sad when you think of how many people we lost during these times.
The native americans (specially the aztecs) from Mexico were murdered by:
-The spanish conquerors.
-The diseases the spianiards brought to the "new world" smallpox, variola, measels, etc.. the population by 1531 of 10 million aztecs dropped to only 2 million.
-Forgoten by modern justice and society, native people in this country are dying of famine and other problems every day.
Hope that some day AMERICA (the whole continent) respect this people.
Do not let my southern accent fool you. I am 1/2 Modoc (coastal, northern CA and OR) and 1/2 white. I will pass this on, very definately. Ya'll bet on that!
i'm creazy for native americans a very big fan but i live in london england and theres nuthing here i love you guys way is there no native american things happen over here i love you all your the most fun and the best teachers too the best of everthing alborada and indiogenes i'm a very big fan of them native americans rule

George Bernard Shaw once said that America was the only country in the world that had progressed from Barbarism to Decadence without the intervening stage of Civilisation, he was of course talking about the non indian history of America!!
Essentially a pow wow is more when a reservation or group of reservations gather together for memory and tradition (mostly by dance). Some of these are open to the public-some are considered private-possibly for the deeper meaning of the culture.
iam white and i say long live native americans i am in full support of you i want you to get your rightful freedoms back it was'nt right what happened to you by my people and i am ashamed to be white because of what my people have done to not only you but other races and cultures and still do.
OMG I am so lonely for my fellow canadian ndns! I am here down in Missoula MT ...going to school, there's good peeps here, but I am lonesome for my cree people, please come to KYI YO POWOW in April , check out for the poster on U of M website...all my relations from gloSto (formerly CFWE radio DJ...back in the day...hahahaha)
Hey thanks for the awsome message! I totally know what you mean when say you miss your Cree people. I was once too abroad and really had to come home because the feeling was so strong. Anyways, please feel free to add me, anyone, on Facebook. My name is Solomon Cyr (thats the name you can search me with. Im pretty sure im the only Solomon Cyr on Facebook. W'ell continue to chat on there.
iam white and i say long live native americans i am in full support of you i want you to get your rightful freedoms back it was'nt right what happened to you by my people and i am ashamed to be white because of what my people have done to not only you but other races and cultures and still do.
I hope you get your home back and rebuild your culture with the added advancements that can be of use. I am so sorry this happened. To you and to humanity. I want to go back to Ireland and I want you to be here and have a peaceful sharing world. Although my personal ancestors were not part of the violence that you met, it was because of that violence that they felt free to come here. And I have always felt I do not belong here. Not saying it's the right way to feel, just the way it is.
My friend, you have the right to be here. Our people have never wanted to be stingy with the land. The land was never ours, it belonged to the Creator. We are custodians to the land. Our connection to the Creator makes our connection to the land sacred.
Most of America doesnt realize this, they beleive that we Native Americans are connecting our race to the land when in fact it is ABOUT the spirituality. So dont feel like you dont belong here, just remember that your in God's Country. Peace and fairness should indeed come from that.
indian forever? If you are indian your a living indian, so you kinda have to have pride for ever! Powwow season is coming up, dam I cant wiat either brother, july is my powwow, cant wiat to sing my first northern cree!!! HOKA!!!
This Song resonates. The Pow Wows season is over now in N Y. Songs like these will keep me going till the Pow Wow trail opens again. Mitakuye Oyasin, Taino Ti, Bomatum.
The Pow Wow Season has ended in Ny for now. Songs like these will keep me going until the Pow Wow trail opens again. Mitakuye Oyasin, Taino Ti, Bomatum
Americans come to my country and say "We have no history" I say to them 'You have a history as old as mankind and you tried to destroy it. I say to them "You call yourself Christians and yet the native American knew and obeyed the philosophy of The Great Spirit, a thousand years before The Great Spirit sent his son to Bethlehem.
When Christianity first arrived and was explained to the Native Americans,they understood completely.The long story,the philosophy,the way of life.All of it.The problem came,when those who had told them of Christianity didn't seem to understand.Many who call themselves Christians nowadays still don't understand Christianity.
please don't do that. don't generalize. saying "you tried to destroy it" to someone today is unfair. the same people that destroyed it are trying to destroy us all now. no country is safe from what is happening now. the people of all nations and countries must get ready for a fight against the worst tyranny mankind has ever seen. not all americans are dumb enough to say we have no history.
Love this video. It's righteous! The music the words, all strong. My heart dances with new strength, new hope, and a sense of justice that I know will come from the Creator alone.
I understand & have always sympathised w the plight of Native Americans. They r absolutely right that they WILL win the fight, because the Creator of all things will help them. All mankind will be united. This is 1 of God's unfailing promises. Already this is occurring. NA life has been so close to truth & reality because of their purity of heart, unlike many 'enlightened' civilisations.
I love this song, it's so true. I kind of like the first part where she sing's "I met him on the pow-wow trai' he was singing and I was a dancer, to the heart beat drum the heart beat drum, long summer nites of falling in love, don't never wanna part, dont ever wanna say good bye" I love this part. I all so love the red bull part. Keep it strong people.
When people want to hide the wrongs they've done they always quote some "scientific" discovery, much like the fascists did to prove they were superior. They ancient civilizations on this continent have been hidden, destroyed and silenced so that the American genocide is hidden. Native Americans are treated like an extinct group of animals. By the way all people supposedly came from Africa and so???. Science is as true as the people who fund it.
Thank you so much for your support on this one. It does always seem that whenever thier is something that Native Americans can be proud of, white scientists seem to just want to attribute our greatness, or our beauty to something else. Only the hateful use science in order to try and diffuse greatness... Greatness is an attribute of truth! Lies can never demish it!
it is descovered by the DNA chromozome analyses that native americans had passed the berring strait some 20 thousand years ago from asia to america-alaska by following the group of ren deers. they were only 13 people that time passing the ice-covered frozen strait. hence their origin is proved to be turkic asian groups. ref.source:discovery channel tv.and national geographics tv.unfortunetly more than 100 million native americans have been genocided in the history.i adore them.
Whatever theory you beleive in is fine... Scientifically it probably can be proven that Native Americans derived from another continent, and if so then fine! If that is the case then the principle of Terra nullius should now be in the favaour of Native Americans.
dam red bull sang in this. his stuff is the best their is. i am full bread indian and this is my favorite song. I am young and still learning the traits of my people but i feel i understand the true meaning of our people and turtle island. Keep dreaming, our dreams will come true.!!
This vid brought tears to my eyes . I am only a lil over a quarter Cherokee , but the spirit runs wild in my veins ! Those pictures where of my ppl , and we shall one day raise again to become the great tribes of this land !
i am touched, i am moved, i am Asian but i share the pain and sorrows experienced by our native american brothers becoz after all we are connected in a circle, we are tangled in the same web....web made by the Great Spirit... watching this video brings a tear to my eyes...
Buffy sings Canada's 2nd national anthem. I love this song, I miss seeing the video Buffy made so much. Though, I am white my children are of North America's First Peoples, so forever will be my family . . .
Love this song so much. and i have finally found it, i've been wanting this song ever since i was young, finally today they told me what it is. now i can't stop listening to it. it's so powerful and it means so much to me. i'm Cree and proud to be one!
amazing video and song. I am from Scotland and it is a great honour to see this. I thank you and wish all the happiness in the world on your great people. Very best wishes. Coop.
As they raped Mother's flesh/They tried to kill us off,/Breed us to extinction./They did not count on the strength/Of our Peoples to survive/To live on despite great hardships/You cannot kill the Earth./
im a 100% cree and this music video makes my spirit sore and i think my people our people r strong and will continue to survive no matter wut. thse tears r of pride and love 4 all natives
Ahe'hee...well done. The current destruction happening among our Native population is language loss. We are but very few fluent-speakers left. This video touched my heart and eyes teary-ed up. Good to be Dine'. Good to be a Natural!
your right my brotha about their are very few fluent speakers left of our kind. Even on the reservation their is no need to even speak my languege, ojibwa. english is widley used.

What doesn't make sense to me about columbus is this.How in the hell do you "discover" land when someone is already on it?It's like sinbad,the comedian(not pirate),once said "It's like walking onto somebodys porch and saying 'I discovered this porch'"lol.Good analogy from one of my fave comedians.Beautiful song too!Thanks for posting this video Solomon Cyr.

I think it would all come down to the idea that the "civilized world" (their words, not mine) saw the Native Americans as savages, therefore their being there first didn't matter. I hate the fact that we still have a Columbus Day today - I mean, really, he was a horrible man.
finch6789 3 years ago 4
I agree with you finch. I think the we are living right now by destroying nature is not civilized at all. We should live in harmony with nature. I believe there will be a time when our descendants will think of us as Savages and uncivilized who didn't understand the world at all. Its just the matter of time.
godfather0786 2 years ago
Having Columbus Day is the equivalent of celebrating Hitler for his Genocide of the Jewish people - Enough is enough of this ignorance of celebrating criminals and murderers as if they're heroes - absolutely ridiculous - Power to the people, Native and all others who are to this day being abused and oppressed by the powers that be - "darling don't cry" we will right the wrongs

The native americans (specially the aztecs) from Mexico were murdered by:
-The spanish conquerors.
-The diseases the spianiards brought to the "new world" smallpox, variola, measels, etc.. the population by 1531 of 10 million aztecs dropped to only 2 million.
-Forgoten by modern justice and society, native people in this country are dying of famine and other problems every day.
Hope that some day AMERICA (the whole continent) respect this people.

miguelsirusibin 3 years ago
Essentially a pow wow is more when a reservation or group of reservations gather together for memory and tradition (mostly by dance). Some of these are open to the public-some are considered private-possibly for the deeper meaning of the culture.

I hope you get your home back and rebuild your culture with the added advancements that can be of use. I am so sorry this happened. To you and to humanity. I want to go back to Ireland and I want you to be here and have a peaceful sharing world. Although my personal ancestors were not part of the violence that you met, it was because of that violence that they felt free to come here. And I have always felt I do not belong here. Not saying it's the right way to feel, just the way it is.
MidstreamHorse 3 years ago
My friend, you have the right to be here. Our people have never wanted to be stingy with the land. The land was never ours, it belonged to the Creator. We are custodians to the land. Our connection to the Creator makes our connection to the land sacred.
meowkid 3 years ago
Most of America doesnt realize this, they beleive that we Native Americans are connecting our race to the land when in fact it is ABOUT the spirituality. So dont feel like you dont belong here, just remember that your in God's Country. Peace and fairness should indeed come from that.
Sincerely,
S.C.X.

Americans come to my country and say "We have no history" I say to them 'You have a history as old as mankind and you tried to destroy it. I say to them "You call yourself Christians and yet the native American knew and obeyed the philosophy of The Great Spirit, a thousand years before The Great Spirit sent his son to Bethlehem.
Norfolkscot 4 years ago 5
When Christianity first arrived and was explained to the Native Americans,they understood completely.The long story,the philosophy,the way of life.All of it.The problem came,when those who had told them of Christianity didn't seem to understand.Many who call themselves Christians nowadays still don't understand Christianity.

I understand & have always sympathised w the plight of Native Americans. They r absolutely right that they WILL win the fight, because the Creator of all things will help them. All mankind will be united. This is 1 of God's unfailing promises. Already this is occurring. NA life has been so close to truth & reality because of their purity of heart, unlike many 'enlightened' civilisations.

I all so love the red bull part. Keep it strong people.

When people want to hide the wrongs they've done they always quote some "scientific" discovery, much like the fascists did to prove they were superior. They ancient civilizations on this continent have been hidden, destroyed and silenced so that the American genocide is hidden. Native Americans are treated like an extinct group of animals. By the way all people supposedly came from Africa and so???. Science is as true as the people who fund it.
braveandtall 4 years ago
Thank you so much for your support on this one. It does always seem that whenever thier is something that Native Americans can be proud of, white scientists seem to just want to attribute our greatness, or our beauty to something else. Only the hateful use science in order to try and diffuse greatness... Greatness is an attribute of truth! Lies can never demish it!

This has been flagged as spam show
it is descovered by the DNA chromozome analyses that native americans had passed the berring strait some 20 thousand years ago from asia to america-alaska by following the group of ren deers. they were only 13 people that time passing the ice-covered frozen strait. hence their origin is proved to be turkic asian groups. ref.source:discovery channel tv.and national geographics tv.unfortunetly more than 100 million native americans have been genocided in the history.i adore them.

Whatever theory you beleive in is fine... Scientifically it probably can be proven that Native Americans derived from another continent, and if so then fine! If that is the case then the principle of Terra nullius should now be in the favaour of Native Americans.
