Hello, I'm a "white devil." I am curious why some Native Americans refer to themselves as being "winters old" instead of "years old." I'm assuming this is a long standing tradition. Can someone, who is willing to speak to a "white devil," explain the origin of this tradition. Thank you.
@searstaylor1230 Im just taking a guess at this, from a tiny bit of what i heard, but it could do because alot of indigenous people are matriarchy, not patriarchy (which is western society)
they follow the time of the moon, of the universe, not of planet earths spins. so theyre measuring time is different
IF IM WRONG SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME. im not native american, nor american at all, just a guess :)
I love this guy because he had balls of brass. I will stand with the natives against the white devil. We need to over power the white bastards in a spritual way. I have learnt how to do this and I am able to countrol the whites at my office.
@MyHealingSoul The words of your heart possess neither the truth or the wisdom of our forefathers. The spirit and blood of my ancestors compels me to inform you that many Caucasians and some Negros believe as we do, feel as we do, and therefore must be embraced as brothers.
The "white devil" that you speak of is a lie, meant to divide not only we from them, but to divide and conquer all who love the land, but more important love the Great Spirit.
@MyHealingSoul I'm white and if I had the money, I'd buy up all the land and give it to the American Indians. I'm white and I believe that what has been done by my recent ancestors is entirely wrong. We used to be (and still descend from) a people who WERE one with the earth and loved Mother Earth and Father Sky(albeit we had different names for them). The Roman Catholics came in and murdered them and forced them into forgetfulness about who they really were, took away their language. I remember
being part Native American Indian, and no card, i want more then anything to have my card, and know my Apache culture.my family ripped me off of my history, now 50 winters old, i want to pass this culture to my family blessings to you , Sitting Bear ps is there anyway you would be willing to come to Missouri , to speak to the Qua-paw tribe? i would be honored to hear you as would the tribe

native grandmothers of the world have been the teachers of their clans children for thousands of years-so now who voted they are not good enuff-one on one love and teach childcare by watching the mothers all day-opinion?idares break the taboo of herbal birth control plants- and worst still- the womens longhouses- where only grandmothers,their daughters and their children live and their communal food gardens-men only temporary invited guests- no more forced sex and overpopulation- iroquoiswomen
why cant matriarchy clans longhouses be allowed on reservatons- land can be richness-why not let grandmothers/mothers be the teachers-how children learn childcare- home care- grow food/clothes.herbal medicines-herbal birth control teas-native rights means the right to teach your culture hand down land to children-all the self sufficiency skills -jobs for life on the land
Let me break it down for you and tell you what's really happening here. It's the same old story, after all: Rich, powerful white-collar criminals get away with murder, while the poor, the disadvantaged and the sick get shafted.
I think the fact that Means lost the election shows that he is a rebel rouser and not in touch with what we really want on Pine Ridge. There is no chance that I would have voted for him as he is not grounded in reality!

Russell "AL Sharpton" Means What a piece of work!!! IS, always has been, and always will be nothing but a big shi! stirrer. Independent Nation, What a Joke!!!
They also might be sceptical. Who´d blame people for it, regarding what has been done to them in the past, and how life currently is. Things are stuck, it´s habit, not good, but familiar... Understanding and action is not a jump-to-it-thing :(
I so wish this to work out. I know it will. This is the right thing. My prayers are with you, Russell and yours!
The Nation, as a whole, did not change anything. THis was a publicity stunt for Means failed run for President of Pine Ridge. Life on the rez is the same as it was before Means pulled this off . . .
If this were 'real' it would warrant more than a homemade video by the guy that came up with the idea - hell I could make the same declaration today and be taken just as serious . . .
Please do a video for my Native Lakoa Sioux Brothers here on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. Watch this vid . We need help bringing in support and contributions to help our Youth whom are dieing at an alarming rate to suicide.
We have the highest rate of teen suicide in the Western hemisphere and nobodys want to help us help the Native American Youth.
Estonko, what a great man, what a mind he has, he has fought long and hard for his people, at great personal cost,you are a true warrior, a warrior of old, with the wisdom and knowledge that only comes from the school of hard knocks and experience. Osceola.
A 'damned if you do damned if you dont' because you are sure damned if you become 'citizen' of damned U'S. thats for sure!!!...and damned if you refuse for the reasons you gave
Yes, that is absolutely true..the United States has not lived up to any of it's promises to Native Americans...and I am ashamed of my own government for that!

Russell Means appears to be genuine and is clearly drawing a lot of attention to all this:though i doubt anyone , even he, can be right all the time!
That WhiteClay character has differing opinions, just because i dont agree or dont share them dont mean i dont want to hear his dialogue.

Russell speaks a lot of sense.
But many people seem to be deaf, or maybe choose not to listen. Then again they may be to busy making money.
For those who dont know yet, Money is the religion we have been worshipping here in Europe for the last two thousand years.

Russell is doing all of this for the money that you idiots keep sending him. He does nothing to help his people. They don't even like him.
