  • @rainbowaon we're choctaw and irish, and we are also winkte, or something a lot like it lol this is like a equinox 2012 yeah!

  • As a person who is immensely proud of my Irish Heritage, I am gratified more than I can say to see that the Irish and the First Nations peoples share so much.

  • @irishgrl During the Irish potato famine the choctaw people gathered and sent $710 to help out the starving irish, this was only 16 years after the trail of tears. They wanted to help the irish out because they knew what it was like to go hungry even though they were impoverished people also...power to the people!

  • @creekjohnson100 Your attitude is subhuman.

    Evolve or be washed away in the tides of history.

  • Wow. Im not native, but im obsessed with the cival war, and the indain wars. I noticed two indians that I know of, back to back in this video. At 1:37 there is a drawing of the Cherichawa Apache Geronimo, and the next picture after him was teh Nes Pierce cheif, named Cheif Joseph, to the whites. I cant remember his or Geronimo's real names. I Sitting bulls name was Tutanka ieo tanka. I cant spell any tribes or names, but My favorite tripe is the oglala lakota,and then hunkpapa lakota. both soux

  • Thank you for the song back ground, nice that the melody was used in this way. Mitakuya Oyasin. We must not let the true history die. The victors may write th books but the spirit of the First Nations will never die.

  • Giinawind mashkawii! 

  • @creekjohnson100  careful, your ignorance is showing!!!

  • @creekjohnson100 careful, your ignorance is showing!!!

  • THIS IS A POWER.FUL SONG. THANK YOU FOR POSTING IT! BEE BLESSED -AHO/AMEN ALL MY RELATIONS

  • Mitakuye Oyasin! Namaste! We are one! May we all come to realize these words and make them a reality.

  • Im Cherokee and all. But I have to say the term "native" offends me. There was another group of peoples before what we know today as "native americans". Anyone born in the United States is a native american as far as I'm concerned . Not all Indians were nice either. Some were very mean to European settlers. It works both ways. Lets not sugar coat history.

  • @monumentfloyd

    Spoken like a true European descendant....

  • Some were very mean to European settlers.? Seriously? Should I move into your home with out asking you, eat the food out of your fridge, bring all my friends and family to live there and push you into the closet to sleep... This would make you hospitable? Native Americans have had a worse genocide the holocaust, Telling the truth is not a sugar coat. If you are indeed of pure Cherokee blood. You have lost touch with your roots.

  • @svengaligraves13 Wow , you are one proud RACIST. You've already scalped yourself. Your hate says it all.

  • très belles images!!!!

  • Touching song , but the pictures are a Joke ! Retarded !

  • I think this song is perfect. I learn something each time I hear it. I have a friend who left my home due to the fact that the background music is Gary Owen. (The song Custer marched to. That unit still marches to Gary Owen) He felt it was demeaning to the soldiers. I feel it is a great backdrop to their song and it is a bit of "what goes around comes around". I love to hear Gary Owen in the background. My friend, who is still my friend, was told if he didn't like it he could leave. Thank you!

  • This song is for my dad who works to get us our tribal cards and be official and prove our link to our Choctaw Nation, when our grandpa was denied. This is to my cousins, grandmas, uncles,aunts caught in the divide (african and native) For me and my sister and best friend who live everyday to honor all our ancestors and also Creator despite what people think or what ppl say we both know who we are and that Creator chose us for the red road we did not choose it. Thank you for this song and poem!

  • I love this!! One of my most favorites!

  • Does anyone know if there is a version of this song without the spoke word (just the vocalizations in the background) available???

  • All western society has taught us is how to live at our worst, how to be greedy, materialistic, how to walk over others, etc. I would like to see more Native American spiritual teachings which is why so many of us cannot live in harmony as we've forgotten or haven't been shown the way. I have the greatest respect for the Native Americans.

  • so beautiful. much energy is summited to the things that divide us. racism is fairly new and is only used as a distraction. spiritual people must stay focused on what really matterx. God's will.

  • Comment removed

  • @traveln3 Aho! thank you for these words it reminds me to pray and God will always will be done! thank u!

  • I remember them always, they live within me. Wheyyawey (Viola)

  • This makes me cry every time. No matter what.

  • still one of the greatest videos , thanks for keeping it up!!!!!!!

  • Yes, great tribute to our elders who have continued to inspire us to hold on and hope and to be strong as we walk through this journey of life.

  • @Lochee1000 I walk in beauty, (as you seemingly do). I.m taking care of my Mom, but then this amazing thing happens. Suddenly she is taking care of me, plus 7 cats and innumerable birds and plants. Therefore I'm walking in beauty, in front of me, behind me, to the right of me, to the left of me, above me and below me, every where I turn there is beauty, there fore I am walking in BEAUTY, as I imagine you are. Have Courage and Persevere.

  • Very good!

  • los coyotes son indigentes en su propia tierra, como no lo puede ser quien es un imigrante en arizona

  • truth

  • Urban Indian, keeping in touch, Ho y Ache'

  • We are still here!!! Nkaanaa Gnaa!! All my relations!! A zhwemnishin Wiidokoshin!

  • pensamiento ques caro por los que viven bajo esa maldicion

  • thank u Jack for this share---

  • this is such a beautiful song :) damn these women can sing!

  • Aho Mitakuye Oyasin!

  • I love this song and love those who keep their traditions and feel proud of the past and keep it going for the future. It teaches us to remember that in the eyes of our creator we are one no matter what color, race, sex, or background.

  • YES!!

  • It was the Masonic Removal program.And after the Massacre of 1622,in which the Natives(who were welcomed into,and frequently visited the English homes) suddenly attacked and killed 350 English. So blame Opecancanough.

  • How can you compare one peoples suffering to another? How can you take the the memories of physical and sexual abuse from those living today that remember it? Do you ask Jews to forget what happened to them? If you had listened to the song it was a tribute to the human race and all living things. Innocent or quilty! You may feel that the strong conquers the weak ,keep whorshiping technology. Its not going to save us. Get serious about healing the earth. We all go down together my friend.

  • its a bit wet, but to reply to chocolyte and donhooligan, i suppose this a a cultural punch back for the geneocide 400 plus years and those stupid bloody westerns with john wayne.

  • Thank you for the beautiful tribute to the tribes murdered by the U.S. Cavalry..when I hear this song, all I can think of is the U.S. 7th Cavalry and their campaign of murder against the Lakota and other original people.

  • Would it kill to include at least one pic of an Indian that is not either dead and historic or a truck store poster?

  • mitakuye oyasin

  • we who care

    ARE the Warriors Of The Rainbow

    We WILL Defend LIFE

    We WILL make Our Great Mother Earth green again.

  • Please share this with all your relations, these words are a living prayer for all beings.

  • I want to be brought back into the "fold" I have lost my wAy, and I want to come back to my people

  • And we are the creatures:PeAcE

  • Tena koe Purafe

    It is the same wherever the colonisation machine reigned. I speak from the sacred lands of the fish and the canoe of Aotearoa, New Zealand. Time to acknowledge the wound, accept it and move forward never forgetting it but moving up and out of the quagmire of the pain. Peace to all our relations all over the world.

  • the english did the same to ireland. they came and they took our land off us, and colonised our land with settlers from their land. they gave them our land for free. and left the irish people to starve or work for them , the english (british ) bastards!!!

  • Too bad we still have people living in Concentration Camps here in America!

  • Where can I buy a Ulali CD?

  • NATIVE PRIDE!!!

  • @xoxoSTFUxoxo fo sho to us 1st nationers!

  • I love the message this song teaches... red, yellow, black, white, brown, blue, green... We are all the same in the eyes of the Gods. When we learn to put aside foolish differences, we will all truly be one with All Our Relations!

    Hail Peace!

    Hail Harmony!

    Hail Understanding!

  • @PaganMale81 If only we could all just get along......that is the big problem...would be wonderful !!: ) Peace

  • @MyTbradley i dont think you understood the video. let me rephrase. there were 60 million indians that lived here. 800,000 remain

  • @MyTbradley i dont think you understood the meaning of what they were saying. 52,000,000 indians were exterminated....there were 60,000,000 indians that lived during that time. there are only 800,000 indians remaining

  • @Stalinx20 exactly! so little left that still live in the united states today

  • @Stalinx20 Actually, according to census results, there are approximately 4 million people of Native American descendancy in the US.

  • @MyTbradley sorry for posting twice. -_-

  • @PaganMale81 . YUO HAVE ALL THE REASON, BE TRUE.

    PEACE & LOVE- RESPECT- NÓ PROBLEM- BUÉN ROLLITO.

    FROM MADRID. ( SPAIN ).  ESTOY TAMBIÉN CON VOSOTROS.

  • Amen sister!

  • nice!!!!!!!

  • nice

  • Aniin. I am anishnaabe from Alderville Rez. Nizhenicaaz Peach. I am a proud Native!!!

  • beautiful

  • are you talking to me??

  • Why do we blame one another? ( not saying anyone here is blaming one another, just somethign I wanted to ask. Please send me a message if you reply because I want to keep fighting to a minimum.

  • The Irish drank for the same reasons, to escape the the misery they were reduced to... taken from their families and beaten when they spoke their language... the song - drinking song of rich young roisters in Limerick. It obtained immediate popularity in the British Army garrisoned in Limerick. It was a resistance song,,,, the Irish resisting the British(anglo-saxon) as the British worked hard to Breed the Irish out of them, send the men off to Austrailia and wars to die. Parallel histories

  • Our histories ARE largely parallel, but the Irish of the north have much more in common with the indigenous of North America than their southern brethren & sisteren do. They, like we, have been put upon by SETTLER colonialism, & in both places those settlers have neither: assimilated into Irish or Native Americans; nor completely accepted the natives as equal, though different, brothers & sisters; nor gone away & started minding their own business for a change.

  • first of all... I'm not trying to bring down the good ones, the ones who help, or the ones who love. (get it?) if they do all that...

    why would I talk like that about them (never) if you're a good one I'm with you no matter who you are. If tech goes out the window here in America we survive, can say much about them. Sorry if real sounds like hate, but is not like that at all...

    I DON'T HATE!!! I respect your coment even if your not on my traveling road.

  • I love this this is a great video

  • we indians forgot that sharks belong... off the land, but we let them in and teached them how to work it and respect it, now "they own it" and abuse it. Perhaps we it was better for us not trying to be nice but be nothing but what they label us (savages) and hit them with arrows before they get off the water; maybe this sinfull nation whould be called United Savages of America.

  • I am afraid you are missing the point of this sone completely.

  • ok but there trying to keep there religion alive and not only them but everyone else even trees everything in nature they never judge or desricpeted how do you think the white kill them

  • Just diggin this stuff thats all....

  • To All My Relations Red White Black Yellow.

  • thank you for sharing , peace xxx

  • the brute & savage ones are the ones who came considering them selves educated civilized, controlled by material and "moral" superficial values! why does this is to happen? why did we let this happens? how can all we be one and rise the power of mother earth back again and eliminate for ever all that separated us? no matter race or species we consider we are! we are all brothers and sisters! we must bring back peace and harmony to our universe! Love and light to all!

  • hominidae7sp - You speak well, kola. Yes, we are all related, but too many let the color of skin and geography separate us. This is not so...it is the heart that separates us. The other is only cosmetic and geography. Until the hearts become as one, nothing will change. It is of no matter who defeated who yesterday or 200 years ago, it is now we must work with, for now is all we have and will ever have. Point the direction of the true path for those who seek and are lost; one by one.

  • I am sorry, but my thoughts are: it was not a rifle or the victory over the US cavalry that makes the Lakota the strongest. It was their belief in their inner strength - and it held on until today. The strength comes from within, from heart and soul, from love and faith in everything that was and is Lakota. The past and the present and the future. You were cheated and beaten so many times, and stood up and went proud, even in the saddest moments. A real pride, for all your relations.

  • Step back there little man 898. Your landlord is gonna speak. I can't speak for all tribes but we Sioux's are americas mightiest. Yeah we lost. But we are one of the few nations that hold victories over the u.s calvary. Like the sister below said honor & bravery what from a paleface view do you know about it. As long as you have a gun by yourside that makes you feel powerful. Your just talking out you backside. Take your twisted incestial european culture & views and go post else where.

  • First we were never weak or foolish! It was about bravery & honor (not that a white man can understand)! We rode up to the enemy and counted coup. Unlike the soldiers who were cowards had to use guns! Because they "feared us" and ofcourse they feared us because what you don't understand, you fear. You look back on history of the last 100 yrs and what has become of our lands! Poisoning to extinction of animals. But I do pity the people who can't understand what it is to be a true "human being".

  • No, they respected the morals of actions and displayed perfect ethics and morals, even when we warred with them, we did not. We rejected their ideas, which in a lot of cases were better, and forced them to move to reservations when all they strove to do was preserve their heritage and culture. Native Americans were not "weak and foolish." Some called them savages, but maybe we were the savages. Read Ben Franklin's "Remarks Concerning the Savages of North America." Its a shorty but a goodie.

  • yea but they would try to fight with sticks(foolish) when the enemy had guns. And they lost most of their battles.

  • they just failed in one thing: they expected honor as well from their opponents - and very, very few had. Ask Tecumseh, Black Kettle, Cochise, Mangas Colorado, Chief Joseph, Tashunka Witko and many, many more: Deception was the answer, the white answer to the red honor.

  • well said... it was not we meet you at the line with knives to knives it was show up with your fist and the others coming in with Guns ... no regard to a fair fight.

  • native american week..

  • LOOOOOVE this video.

    Hugs from a scandinavian women

  • Mitakuye oyasin... with love and respect and so much admiration... from a german woman... in the name of all our relatives... in the name of mankind.

  • Thanks for this video, so much truth, great job and great video. Peace

  • Hoka Hey

    Absolutely wonderful.

    mitakaye oyasin

  • The more i read about nations that have very old culture i see how much we are alike,so many things in commom,i wish planet Earth would be a more peacefull place..in the end we all have a common ancester in Africa,we are all brothers and sisters,Peace!

  • we too,were attacked by others(romans,huns,goths,maghi­ars,mongols,turks,etc..)but we kept our land,i wish all the native tribes(Dna tests shows that you are one people) had joined and fought against the spanish and the english,the outcome would have been different..sometimes when people have no culture they label others that have it savages,you should be proud that you are the natives of this beautiful land..

  • When you say the whites,remember it was not all the "whites",it was the english and the spanish,as a "white" person that admires your culture and people,makes me sad when you say that,i am romanian,i had nothing to do with what the english and spanish did to your people,not all europeans have white skin colour ,blond hair and blue eyes,and not all the europeans were bad,my people have been in europe for thousands of years,first people to form in Europe

  • The whites are just immigrants, thieves, barbarians, murderers who stole from the hosts who welcomed them with open arms & tried to kill them all & destroyed their home & claimed as their own. Can they say these are not facts?

  • what about the good ones the ones who help the ones who love

    You are full of hate and you can not see right we need them as they need us.

    this is a fact

  • Oh, my msg earlier was to clg26 only. All the power to the Natives. They are the "Native" Americans, the Real Americans. Every inch of America lands belong to them. That's a fact in my textbook.

  • The words are awe inspiring and beautiful. Too bad the tune however is based on both an Irish drinking song and an early revolutionary war march song. Despite it all it works well together. I have always loved Ulali's work

  • Why is it "too bad"...they used it for a reason...think about it.

  • A beautiful video.

    Native pride :)

  • I am so so sorry for all that happened, for all that we did to your people...and I am so ashamed  of how we treated you...My heart is by your side and all i can do is hope for your forgiveness and hope that justice will be made for you and your people...I can not forgive them...maybe you will...

  • My nephew seven is 8 years old one day he came to me and said that jesus was an indian and they through him off a cliff because he wanted to heal the people,he also said that fire is a mystery to the wind, seven also told me that the meaning of life is not in the tv, he said the meaning to life is death, talk about from the mouth of babes

  • I adopted a little boy down here in south america - half native, at least. I watch him every day and I see the way he treats animals, plants - nature. With so much care... I wish children in the so called "rich" countries would feel and understand this four year old kid knows and understands. He (and all the kids of his country) is the love of my life... I will teach him, what I believe in: mitakuye oyasin

  • Forgive us tribes

  • We are what is causing global warming people must open their eyes and realise that we are all connected to this earth we must stop killing one another please before it is to late

  • Yeshua (Jesus) would be reborn as a Native not any other people! Live strong Native people; he is born to the Native people! A new name! New body! A new song! the 144,000 are Native people to be saved from rapture.

  • nice song from Ulali, a very talented group of Native women ! Just wish there had been some real photo footage of Ulai and other Native peoples. But thanks for posting the song!

  • Native man.... take off your glasses...

    Native man...call back the eyes of the Eagle... Native man... You can heal me with your eyes.....

    Native man... Take off your glasses.....

  • Excellent!! 5 stars

  • Wonderful video :) ~Peace and love '08!

  • Wonderful video :) ~Peace and love '08!

  • i just saw on TV that some danish scientists have found that the indians came from Asia 14.300 years ago, and that they probabably were the first people to reach America

  • By analyzing fossile material

  • My Elder told me that you people believe in Dinosaurs? Then why don't you say the dinosaurs were here first? :) After all they would own your land too!

  • clg, ... or the Norwegians who were the first Europeans to land in America (Wineland as they called it)

  • Are you actually comparing people with extinct wild animals? wow, you and your elders are amazing in your own way..

  • NATIVE PRIDE! LET THEM REST IN PIECE!

  • NATIVE PRIDE! LET THEM REST IN PIECE!

  • This make me very sad. I have a feeeling I ought to apologize on the behalf of all Europeans/Americans for the crimes against your people. I wish you all good in the future. Moving and beautiful video

  • this song teaches respect. Something some of you should learn about. If we learn to respect each other and our differences it would be a better planet to live on. Please lets just see the beauty in both the artistic works and in the soul felt words and sounds of the music.

  • . . . you all judge on who came . and was here first. does it matter. were all living today arent we/?. it does not matter who was first . who died. the only thing that matters is that now we all have our ethnic backrounds and are all still alive today. think about this. i am only 13. and yet have still much to grow. and still much to learn. but i do kno that it does not matter who was first who killed the people. how they died. jus that i am and all of you other peple are living today

  • you know the truth. thank you for your words of wisdom. you stay on your path and don't believe anyone who tells you otherwise. we will be healed only when we see each other as equal. we are one with each other and all our relations... someday all will see this. no matter what you see happening, know that the river knows it's course, knows where it is headed, and that everything will find it's way. follow the inner vision and keep giving love even if it is not given back.

    all my relations,sbruce

  • Hawkdreaming, you spoke like a poet and from the heart. Someday it will to us all.

  • I think they misunderstand you, sammy.

    I didn't do it; I wasn't here. Neither were they, nor you. But memory - and collective guilt run deep. Don't discount it. It is Real.

    Peace, little brother. Namaste~

    Peace, little brother. Namaste~

  • I think you are referring to Sherpas? Its true that Native Americans have Negroid and Caucasion DNA as well. The Land Bridge brought all sorts of races to the Americas. You put us "back in line" by losing wars and spreading diseases abd lies? Quick facts: Pizarro had at least 30-40,000 Native Allies with him to defeat the Inca. Cortes had some 80,000 to defeat the Aztecs. Us Northern natives PWNED you so I won;t go there.

  • Well, thank goodness there's people like you in this planet. Why don't you go back to your Nazi Training camp where you originated?

  • hatred is not a virtue of anything.

    Some understanding for you my friend;

    Bring it forward and Balance your enemy.

  • That was my sister Mel. She's very sensitive as you could see. However, I, too, find that comment that person left to be very offensive, and I can't believe someone would be that ignorant. Oh well. I guess not everyone can change.

  • Explain yourself, who originates from a Nazi training camp? Your meaning is a bit unclear

  • Oh jeez. My sister and I share this account. She was replying to icebeinintoober, and he said something very very insulting about native americans. Believe me, my sister is very touchy about people telling us to "go back to Asia". I myself, love this song, and hope no one judges us further.

  • I see, yes icebeinintoober spoke like a real racist and nazi, that was nasty

  • YOUR ancestors living on the Praries. Name some of these battles where the gatling gun was used. It was first used in Canada against us Cree in the battle of cut Knife and had no affect. Do some research otherwise you'd know that we not only killed many more whites in battle than they, but also that the sweat lodge was created AFTER the presence of the Euros. PWNED.

  • lol :-) *****

  • Most of the images showed are quite fake. They are romanticised interpretations that never existed in reality. Also the spoken text is clearly bent on causing an emotional reaction.

  • Agreed.

  • hold on hispanic and mexicans came from these peacful people waaaaaaaaaaaaa iam jus sooooooo dam confused?????????????

  • GREAT VIDEO!!

  • good video. hej, to catabai:I think Chile become independent about 1820. Since them Chilean gov. has mistreat mapuches by itself. so, not all was done by spanish(which are partially your ancertors too)

  • I have always cherished this piece by Ulali. Thankyou for hosting this video.

  • aho

  • Very Good way of thinking, when you see All of Relations in what you do, that you are carefull and to have compassion for All.

    Not easy, hate cured with Love. Thankyou so much for writeing the profile out, Good Mind!

  • it touched my mind and my heart

  • To all the above and below, before and after.

    I study history from all perspectives; don't you?

  • Please read references before spouting out such gibberish. You bring shame to our (my) Braves that gave up their hopes and dreams to fight the whites. It was disease that killed us, not whites "exterminating".

  • Actually you should check yours. Read Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee by Dee Brown. That will clear it all up for you. Our people didn't only die from diseases, we were killed in massacres such as Sand Creek, Wounded Knee and many more. Read about the Trail of Tears. You really need to go and buy some books, go talk to some elders and hear the real stories. Maybe then you will realize that disease wasn't the only thing that killed our native people.

  • Excelent Book.

  • Great Video, thanks!!!! Makes me even prouder to be Native American.

  • Why? So you can feel sorry for yourself? Theres nothing to feel sorry about. Our ancestors died from disease, not by the white man's hand. In battle, the whites had no chance.

  • This beautiful video moves me...lots of respect.

  • Hey PZKPW accept the inidans as humans they my brothers and sisters

  • Please read references before spouting out such gibberish. You bring shame to our (my) Braves that gave up their hopes and dreams to fight the whites. It was disease that killed us, not whites "exterminating". I AM A MISSANABIE CREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!
