Wacantognaka (Lakota Indian: Generosity) - Remembering Thanksgiving

[warisbs]

"We have listened to the coyotes, the greed of the priests, the shamans, the politicians, the bankers and the merchants, instead of listening to your inner Voice, the ONLY ONE who always speaks the Truth. They, the coyotes, have made myths and fables and lies to frighten, to tempt and to control you."

[warisbs]

There are no political or theological solutions to what is primarily a spiritual problem.

[warisbs]

"The first peace, which is the most important, is that which comes within the souls of people when they realize their relationship, their oneness, with the universe and all its powers, and when they realize that at the center of the universe dwells the Great Spirit, and that this center is really everywhere, it is within each of us."

The white settlers should have been fed the poisonous foods so that there would not have been any genocide and the control of all of the lands they've taken from us.

There is something like thanksgiving in the Old Religion. It's called Mabon. We celebrate and give thanks everyday, but Mabon is reserved specifically for us all to get together as one person and give thanks as a whole.

@runingblackbear Well said.My European ancestors fished for profit and kept fishing until there was no more fish.The natives respected all that was given to them and only took what they had need of to feed themselves.They had no concept of monetary profit.Now we mine for oil to make lots of money to buy nice cars that pollute the air the ground the air.The problem is that we exploit what GOD has created because we know that he will come and save us from our self's. and make everything all good.

this video is politically incorrect. so who cares if it;s historically accurate. You should show the Prigrims as blood thristy Nazis, Chris Columbus as Hitler,etc. Scarcism. While Thanksgiving is important as the first interracial gathering over the universal language of "Foodinese",lol, there is more to it and we should not forget that.
