  • american indians. obviously they are THE REAL AMERICAN ONES. not the pretty bleach blonde white people.. theyre white those are european features.. but they get called americans. every single day while other races such as african/american or mexican/american should we call the white people european/american or just because theyre white we supposed to call them americans. that is so sad. but anyways we all know the truth indian navtive americans.. are the real americans

  • @mrchrmedone you probably already know but the the indigenous populations were referred to as Americans by the European immigrants-until the U.S. was established the term American was then referred to the citizens of the newly founded country..

  • OMG, How can this be being allowed to happen to our Native people :(. On behalf of my ancestors I'd like to apologize to all Natives for what my people have done. I know it isn't much but alas I have no control, if I did I would give the land back to them.

  • @buffyjosmom Please do not feel any guilt for the state of Native Americans-it was the governments of this land that enforced their foreign values on our people-a government which hasn't changed since Hammurabi-I love the European descendants of this land-they have a special cause that is yet tapped into, in relation to the indigenous popluations of this land..just educate yourself about this country and you won't repeat the mistakes made in the past-and you remain blameless for anything

  • About 95 million Native Americans were killed.

  • im native american what you whites call satan is in the earth now and it is within you so fight against that and nothing else, long have we told you of your transgessions be humble and fight within.

  • @scheming8rythem i'm cuban/american and i know the real americans are you guys the indian native americans. not the white people. theyre european/americans being white is european features. i dont understand how people would call them just americans while other races such as african/american or mexican/american but nobody call white people european/americans just coz they look pretty white blonde blue. i call them european/americans whether they like it or not. i love you all native americans

  • @mrchrmedone i have great respect for cuba and it's revolutionary history, Thank you my friend mucho gracias mi amigo y tener un buen dio okay???? paz y amore y un gran abrazo y saludo revolutionario desde nuevo mexico eeau

  • I wish they will go back to their country and leave us alone.

  • @IndigenousQueen What do you mean "go back to their country" ? This generation was born in America now so America is their country. If Americans and Native Americans would learn to live together and love together then that would make things better, yes? But saying things like "go back to your country" and "leave us alone" makes things worse. It's not just the whites doing the hate but also your people. What's done is done, now you need to adapt. It wasn't this generations fault. Open your mind.

  • @TheAnticipation16 Stealing Indigenous Country didn't happen that long ago, you devil. No one is going to open up to you with open arms and say "thank you for raping, stealing, and wiping out Native nations with your inhumane disease". WTF, and who do you think you are trying make me accept you. This is my country and i do not care if you were born here you fucking Illegal. Your a fucking alien and a imposter. Understand that, love doesn't not exist in white culture, only destruction.

  • @TheAnticipation16 We only treat you the way you treat us. Dont try to make us change who we are to accommodate you wicked and evil ways.

  • europe basically destroyed all other indigenous cultures

  • im half cherokee and half mexican, i dont live in a reservation im in mexico & sometime i go to texas, and yeah i think that job is one of the most dangerous job, but i think is well paid...^^ and well i just can tell that just few people are not racist....^^

  • @mellyvel1 Maybe you're right but than I'm one of them - who are not racist! Never thought that somebody like you can think like that, becouse many indians can have a hate to mexican for what they done to them, but you're in the middle and you hate all white people...

  • im half native american and half mexican and i can tell that white and black people are the true inmigrants, they feel proud to be americans when they are not true americans, they feel proud of their past, their past that is about killing people, taking land that its not theirs, having slaves, and trying to invade more countries, for that reason the white people hate mexicans cuz they know that where they live was and still is the land of mexicans and native americans ...

  • @mellyvel1 Yes, because Native Americans never killed each other over tribal territories? Yes they did. I know the tribes here in Greece did. And I know that the Cherokee tribe and many other tribes kept black slaves. I am part Cherokee on my moms side. I have enough blood to actually live in a reservation but I live in Greece with my Greek tribe. Our Greek tribes had slaves too. Everybody has their wrongs. What's done is done and now you have to learn to live together or live with hate.

  • no matter what u all think im proud to be native american! the hell with india or japan.. the get back up by our tax payes money to build their economy. when it comes to native ameican and the united states government, they rather forget what arcosities they commited to sustain this country well being. and last but not less i appericate how my ancestors stood up to the u.s government cuz with out their heart to fight i would not be here...! lokkaa dinihi for life...

  • @azreznative mexicans always had supports for native americans, im half mexican and half native american, here in usa the white and black people are racist with native americans and mexicans, and they hates us because they know that all usa land belong to native americans and mexicans, for that reason i prefer mexico than usa, and i can tell that many native americans are living in mexico, they are free, they dont have to live in a reservation, im proud of who i am, we should take back our land

  • Something I don't udnerstand. NA's weren't the only minorities who were subjugated. Many are able to adapt technology into their culture and compete in a global economy. Japan and India are a prime example. NA's don't. Why?

  • We all know all the Treaties were Fake, we still know they are, But we want COMPENSATION, we won't stop until we get it! They need to change the HISTORY BOOKS ALSO, until then we won't stop!!! Casino's are not good enough, we want our Stuff back not pennies, we want lands.

  • Their impoverished and starving? Every adult native american in this video is overweight or full blown obese....

  • @ChuckinCho bcuz white people make them like that,cuz white people tried to make them addict to anything and if they were addicted to something was easy for them to kill native americans, cuz white and black people bring just diseases that killed our poeple that make our body different, the fatest people in the world youll find it here in usa the white and black people are fat becuse they eat alot of candies, food that is in containers, food that contain chemicals, and they eat alot of fast food

  • The reservation is pitiful. It is full of lazy humans and self entitlement. Natives live like homeless people in filthy trailers. Get educated!! Get a job!! Be somebody!!

  • @Dubaiborn fuck u dis is only one rezervation it aint like we had the opportunities that u grew up with and i do have a job not everybody lives like that its like us sayin all u people r full of deseases and greedy bastards who take n take till theres nothin left

  • @thaakaa naaaaa go to live in a reservation and youll see how life is.......

  • @mellyvel1 i do live on a rez and im a firefighter there

  • @thaakaa cool...^^ i dont i live in mexico my mom says that mexico is much better that usa cuz there no racism and cuz we have same blood as mexicans, i really believe that.....do you like your job...???

  • @mellyvel1 thats cool wut tribe r u n yea i love bein a firefighter best job i ever had thats where u wont c racism from me cuz i help all no matter the color or religion but yea my dad uncle n my brothers r all firefighters n my moms an emt

  • @Dubaiborn hahahahaha...........wrong, go to live in a reservation and youll see how life is, and you wouldnt like to talk like that....... IGNORANT.......

  • @gloryfades............ Your ignorance is radiating today.

  • this is dumb

    propaganda

    want to get out of poverty... stop putting the past on a platform

    especially one based around superstition and tribal relationships

  • if the indians want their land back they cant have it!

    if they were smart they would asimilate instead of trying to be their own culture that obviously isnt working.

  • @gloryfades107 You are ignorant!

  • its quite easy give back USA to the people it truly belongs to.

  • They were very self sufficient you idiots. Many many generations ago. They broke them now thiey pretend to want to help them built themselves up. My God how many times has this story been told. I know its wrong to hate. But my God these people have done some damage for there own benefit, thats why in any business or political arena you can bet the guy way way on top is a white guy. I bet if you take a look at generations back youl see the backs of the people they had to step on to get there. SAD

  • These people had it all. But along came the white man with his bright ideas as usual. Took away there way of life and infested them with there madness. After generations of this they were left with nothing but a memory of there customs and way of life. So far off track from there culture they were lost and left with nothing. Now there pretending to give a shit about the indians. But its way too late now.The damage is done and the only way to survive is to live the rat race of the white man

  • I Live In Great Britiain and feel very close to The Native Americans, iam a spiritualist and follow the native american culture. I feel ashamed of what us the British did in invading there land, the white people and black people are not in any way shape or form real americans, we stole there land to built high rise offices and apartments, they live now in poverty. it is us who should live in such appalling conditions NOT THEM! my heart goes out to them,

    Ayor ano

  • @damesparklelee Wtf are "we"? i dont recall Afrikans exploiting anything!!

  • @IMFLORIDA305 Great point.

  • SICK PERVERT RICH DOCS - ONLY GIVE FOOD TO MOTHERS IF THEY LET DOCS SEX ASSAULT THEM-SICK-CAN DO ALL THIS THEMSELVES-WILD FOODS-THEY ALREADY ALL HAVE THIS-GOOD OLD CHURCHES TEACHERS - LIVING IN NATURE IS NOT POVERTY-CHIEFS SELL THEIR WOMEN/KIDS TO RICH MEDICAL EXPERIMENTS-SECRET STERILIZATION NOT TELL WOMAN-NATIVEW WOMEN HAD THEIR OWN HERBAL BIRTH CONTROL CENSORED BY DOCS TEACHERS AND RELIGIOUS MEN WHO WANT LOTS MEMBERS MONEY-SICK CHARITY IMPOSED ON NATIVES-ITS RICH DOCS AND PRIESTS WHO R PAID

  • NATIVE PRIDE OR DIE!!! FUCK WHITE POWER GO BACK TO UR OWN COUNTRY EUROPE OR WHERE EVER U WHIE PEOPLE CAME FROM:: DIZ IZ OUR LAND:: NAVAJO PRIDE

  • @wbz187slobk amd fuck natives who cant speak there local language

  • God Bless the NRC! and I pray for all of you that think the Native Americans are the bad people, they were here first America is NOT the white peoples land! American is the Cherokee, the Apache, the Navajo, the Choctaw and so on land! we white ppl should be put on reserves....we should not be the one's controlling the Native's...we white people have no right what so ever to control the native's but yet we do just because we had guns along time ago and thought that we had more power but we dont!!

  • On behalve of the Europe here, I appologise for our dumb ancestors who wanted to spread christianity, felt superior because of that, and felt like stealing land. I'm very sorry for those retards over there.

  • @Metaldude1945 that is a sweet thing to say:)

  • @Metaldude1945 You can heal it, but wouldn't remove the scar.

  • @Metaldude1945 Well they are americans now! :D

  • @felix123123 Hmm... nah they aren't.

  • @Metaldude1945 Well thats what we and themselves call them, you are aware of that all the European people came to America and are now Americans right?

  • The quality of their lives were fine untill the europe came.

  • @verrrr1 ye the "europe" dont u mean europeans

  • @verrrr1 If we make the right choices, we can still have quality of life. Avoid the booze, sugars, violence, and everything destructive. Embrace change, it is inevitable; also think positive and carry on our heritage.

  • republic of lakotah

  • I Think native american leaders are failing their peoples. Communites on the navajo reservation in Arizona and New Mexico and Utah have few jobs, no effective police force, no mayors, no city councils, no economic development, no parks for children, no grocery store, some with no electricity, some with no running water.

  • @beone011 and it is that way because of the white people, we don't give them enough money for there needs...they don't need mayors and all that crap they are the native American's they know how to take care of there own people, they don't need our white people, because of the white people they are in the situation they are in now.

  • Native Reservations: Land Set Aside and used by Native People while being surrounded by Thieves.

  • why do people feel sorry for their conditions the natives chose to live like this. this is how they lived before the europeans came. if they dont like it they can move out to civilization.

  • @0neofthem you need to look at the big picture...suppose you live in South Central LA and your house is robbed and then having Paris Hilton tell you, "stop complaining, if you don't like it why don't you just move to Beverly Hills". I'm sure you get it now. If not then poor you.

  • @0neofthem You are completely wrong you fool. The natives never wanted to live like this, they used to live peacful lives, harmonious with nature. There were of course wars and very warlike tribehowever nowhere near all. The 500 some tribes that exist in the us today are just a fraction of what they used to be. Genocide made sure that many tribes no longer exist. What do you think it would be like if a bunch of foreign invaders came and destroyed everything?

  • @0neofthem Then after that they take all your land except for a small fraction, stuff all your remaining tribe members on the piece k land then take your children away to a bording school? There you would be taught that your culture is evil an that only white culture is permissable. You were forbidden to speak your language and then given a white name. Your spirit was broken. The conditions were pitiful. This continues for four generations and your culture and tradition was wiped away.

  • @0neofthem They don't choose to live like this, they were brought to this point. If they moved to a city, where would they go? Some shitty ghetto that's as bad as where they live now. 

  • I am a native american and i say buy a one way ticket out of the reservation!, no one is forcing anyone to live in these conditions, move and work any where in the good ol US of A. Everyone has the oppertunity to make money to take care of their families -this includes natives. America is not perfect but the best country in the world just go to another country and you will see this. Be thankful brothers!!!!!!

  • @beone011 Yeah I know. Norway, Denmark, Sweden, and most European countries are fucking horrible. They have such a low standard of living and huge amounts of poverty. What an unhappy place to live... Norway coming first on the Human Development Index was obviously a mistake. Long Live America; and fuck the third world lands outside our borders; such as Europe and Australia.

  • @beone011 Of course people should make the best of the situation but they were so much better off before the English came over. Now, they would be able to make about as good a living as illegal immigrants.

  • This is so terrible

  • Indians are not very smart they never adapted to changing times most of them live in poverty

  • @quest8899 that statement is pretty ignorant and racist. I'd like to see you survive genocide when all your ways of life have been taken away and you grow up around a lot of poverty, violence, alchololism drugs oppression and you are discriminated against everywhere. Inidians are smarter than the white man, they have survived. you need to open your eyes to reality and not be so ignorant.

  • Can someone please clear this up for me.

    I've seen tv shows n stuff n like white people arnt aloud or something and the indians are very racist from what ive seen but is this rly how they r? cuz they could come to any part of america and not be discrimin ated by law but apperently ppl non indian can go there. thanks

  • @iCommenting that is a crazy comment. people of color/indians have a reason to be racist when their land and lives were/are destroyed by whites, whites have and never had a reason to be racist except ignorance.

  • @catalunarocks Are black people allowd to be racist twards whites cuz they use to enslave them? no because any type of racism is wrong

  • @iCommenting yeah you're probably right, racism is wrong, but people of color have to put up with way more crap than we do yo ucantell by the racist comments on youtube. blacks are still enslaved, look at prison industry, how they are treated everyday, where they are forced to live, they havea reason to be way fed up. but either way racism sucks.

  • @iCommenting Of course white peopleare allowed on the reservations. Most of the Indians on the reservations are part white themselves.

  • christian institutions being the most destructive tool ever invented by mankind, more devastating than any satanic cult, invented because the new testament only teaches love, & it is Apostle Paul who corrupted the teachings of the ''true" messiah, it is christians who bring curses & death upon the land, the extinction of the United States will be brought about by its own christian population, why love something that has no future...

  • @Likathon Jesus taught "the kingdom of heaven lies within", find God inside of you not in religion. it is ccccCRAZY that Chrisianity used Christ's name to destroy, rape, kill most of the native people on the planet, totally the opposite of God's work, distorting the laws of nature ,not cool. Jesus would not be thrilled. jesus preached love not hate, but love.

  • @catalunarocks there must be a technical "internet" term for persons who hide behind the internet to verbally attack-it is absolutely rare to find another person so spiritually gifted and intellegent as you, your comments are a delight to my soul, thank you for your support & comments

  • @Likathon thank you for your kind words! right back at you. I really appreciate your spiritual gifts and intelligence and wisdom. and your words about the Creator's loving kindness, the river's flow, everything you shared. right on! it's from a place from you really knowing. thank you for your support, so much of youtube is just a bad vibe when it could be a great place for learning and sharing. thanks for bringing light to the dark. you rock! keep faith

    peace to you

  • @Likathon Many of the people who say they are Christians really don't even understand their religion. It's not Christianity that is evil, it's the corrupt people that have from time to time run the religion.

  • @guitarzilla100 agreed: as in my previous statements, its men who corrupted the teachings of Christ & translated him into what he is today, men like “Apostle” Paul who continued to corrupt the original Church of Christ despite the opposition from Christ’s brother, with a God who was capable of hate and anger etc., almost all Christians justify their evil with the teachings of Paul..

  • if a persons conditions are based on their genes, does this mean serial killers

    are not at fault for being serial killers, or a rapist is a rapist because he or she

    was born a rapist, it being in their genes? This would mean, there is a possible mental ailment with Christians that prevents them from accepting a loving compassionate God and prefer a hateful, ignorant, self contradicting false messiah.

  • in the united states you can choose who to kill, how many to kill, and whatever

    method of killing you choose, & after you have killed, most states will pay

    for your protection with armed guards, provide daily meals, a room with bed, for the rest of your life even, how can anyone continue to support and be proud of a government such as this. All governments.

  • @Likathon yeah governments are wack. they are all part of the same patriarchal and colonial insitutions, total wack.

  • The Creators hope is that 1 day all his children will return to him in paradise. So he looks upon each of his children with a fathers eyes and his only desire is that we return to him. So he can't look upon us as the world looks upon you. It is the world that calls you worthless, inferior & evil, etc., while the Creator only looks upon you with loving kindness despite all of our wrong doings. That is why I had to "repent" for my remark against a people for their choice toward happiness,

  • @Likathon you never have to repent for speaking up against ignorance and jerks. the Creator lives in truth and the truth is the truth.

  • My remark was in the heat of the moment, after viewing so many negative comments against my people. I inadvertently uttered something that I truly regret, we all must take upon the Creator's nature "name" and do and act as he would toward our fellow human beings.

  • @Likathon i'm sorry you have to see all that negative/ignorant crap on youtube towards your people. i'm not on here that much but youtube seems like a place for people with no self-esteem to go and put others down, not just here but on all the sites I've seen, so they can feel better. so sad. don't take it personal they are LOST. the Creator loves your people the true people.

  • where does the river get her strength to flow, because she does it for you only-what law governs a tree and grants her the ability to grow, her love for you because in her eyes you are the only person in the universe, that is why one can have the ability to control the wind, the rain and move mountains because they see you as the most beautiflul object in all of creation..they are compelled to obey the voice of one who feels this kind of oneness

  • native people are really strong to survive all that genocide and colonialism. they fought hard and long guerilla warfare. they are survivors in their own land.

  • I am 100% for helping modern native americans have a better life. And I'm all for helping them find work and get an education, and to especially help the elderly meet their needs. But it is very interesting that over a hundred years ago, their ancestors lived in temporary structures even more "primitive" (tipis, wikiups, etc.), and they were perfectly happy. One person's poverty is another person's simple way of life. Something to think about.

  • @oneblackhorse the reality is native people in the past had free roam for hunting, fishing could use their medicinal plants - the colonists stuck them on tiny reservations and took away their ancient ways of life and survival, dignity, language, spirituality, you cannot compare - there is no dignity in 17 people living in a trailer, when they are surrounded by white america living with cars and tvs and electricity. something to think about.

  • Thank you for sharing this and May Creator bless you in what you do~

  • tfrenn you know what you are talking about. it needs to be said more often and loudly

  • NRC has come to make the natives survive but only like white people

    I mean the natives complain they are poor but if they lived in tipies and forced the goverment to release 100+ buffalos on there reservation they could survive

    Maybe sibnce buffalos are rare release 200+ deer, so they can hunt and can live like the white man

    its so simple but sometimes u wonder if people really are this stuped

  • You sound retarded it is their land we are invaders, the twisted things America does is not seen by the public. If more then one place hates a country, that means the one they hate is the problem

  • @akumie it's not as simple as teepees and deer hunting. with all the poverty and genocide there are problems with alcoholism/violence/domestic and sexual abuse - their spirit has been traumatized, ptsd. it is not that simple. they need to be allowed to practice their old traditions that were banished to reclaim their spirit and happiness.

  • @akumie That would be like living as a pet. There is no undoin this now. And why are buffalo rare? Well because white men came over here and mass hunted them to near extinction. They killed them for their hides and left the meat to rot. Like I said, it's too late now, Indians lifestyle and culture are now soo intertwined with the white lifestyle that it would be impossible for indians to ever live like that again.

  • @guitarzilla100 trust me when I say many natives are not proud because if they were so fucking proud to be natives why cant they even take the time to learn there native language

  • @akumie There still are a goodly amount that do but for the most part, an I've said it before, the white people have effictively removed culture and tradition from natives. Am I mistaken or is language part of culture? Also, many of the native languages are dead. 4 generations is a long time and plenty of time to kill a language.

  • @guitarzilla100 in my previous statements: any person can learn an indigenous language from books or instructors, I know of many white & other ethnicities who are fluent in such languages, to recognize an indigenous person, ask him how he feels about this country & if is answer is, it is foreign to him & that in our hearts we have no loyalty to that foreign flag of the U.S.-then you know that you have confronted an indigenous person

  • @Likathon i completely agree with your statement about men corrupting religion. there are practically no natives left who feel that way, we have all become asimilated and there isnt much turning back now.

  • @guitarzilla100 many natives will renounce money, government, etc.,

    but it will be few, I am one of them, who no longer supports

    any government in my heart, and am ready to join my people

    who have already prepared a place for those who follow the

    spirit..

  • @Likathon its true that many will, but many many more will not, they are native, yes, but they are also american. its not america that has wronged the native americans, its the european colonists from many centuries ago.

  • @Likathon well, actually, american officials have wronged the natives, but its not america that has, america has, is, and always will be about the people, not our government officials, and natives are part of those people.

  • @guitarzilla100 this is where the division begins, from Americanized natives to an Aboriginal Restoration Movement with no dependency from the U.S.-I have been to such communities & know it can be accomplished-I have so much faith in my people, I know they can accomplish this, 

  • @guitarzilla100 how can one continue to support any institution that protects murderers & provides housing, clothing, meals, education & security for them-you must educate yourself to gain the skills to earn money, that will go to sustaining this circle injustice, I refuse to accept this anymore, as an Indigenous person

  • @Likathon then dont stand for it, do what you can and we'll see what happens of it.

  • highest any where in the world is the highest rate of the poorest. the UN does nothing.

  • Great video!

  • lol well you must not be a native american, cause you must be  a dumb ass one lol, btw native americans lived here for thousands of years so gtfo u dumb ass White ppl still got them diseases bch,

  • P.S. Most people here are posers and don't have a clue. First, there is no "one group " of " indians. Our pow wows are represented by DOZENS of different tribes. And Indian killed Indian long before Europeans came. Mojave are spiritual and non materialistic, Apache's word is better than gold, Shoshone uphold tradition, and Cherokee live very well with nice homes and new cars on the Carolina reservation, that makes a fortune from it's casino. You haters make native americans look like morons. Grr

  • Are you all nuts?! Do you think you really know history? I'm native american, and I don't live on a reservation. Those who do choose to. To get their government checks and casino payoffs. Like many places, as like the projects of Chicago, you will find poor people in need. It's not an Indian thing. And what Europeans did? They saved us from conquest by communist and dictators. Our national symbol is the Eagle. Only a native american can own it's feathers. THINK! Accept a job and refuse welfare.

  • who says the White people knows how to feel guilty? all bunch of ignorant bastards they all are greedy too much to even feel such thing...

  • @federalnemin shit I feel bad what happened to Native Americans, I wish the European powers were defeated cause the world would be a lot better, I understand that the same thing that happened to Native Americans is still occurring in places like Iraq and Afghanistan and try to educate my fellow white men on atrocities committed by US gov, you shouldn't group all white people that way, its kinda like what Fox News does to muslims saying there all terrorists and that ain't true

  • spoken out of frustration tfrenn. I take back what I said, and I apologize for say that. It's just so unfair what was done and is still going on to native americans. I apologize....

  • Put White People on Reservations and Let the Native American Indians control them. It would make them think about how it is to be on land that really isn't worth anything.

  • @silentmoviemusicfrk

    If you put us all in one isolated spot we would be more ethnically united and there would no longer be any reason for us not to discriminate against non whites...

    (No affirmative action in Ethnic Reservations)

    You would be only hurting yourself and doing us a favor...

  • @silentmoviemusicfrk, The land is everything....thats what we need to over-stand...

  • Please, somebody, tell me what the hell is NRC? National Relief Charities. Is it a Christian type organization? Just wondering. Never heard of it.

  • propaganda, america must feel so happy for what the are doing for 'the Indina'. A guilty conscious maybe???

  • i am american and i am also keenly aware and spitefull for what the settlers did to the native americans but we as americans do not feel as a group and i dont know where your ancestors come from but im sure your country has some dirt on its shoes so please dont shit on all americans id sooner identify with native americans than any other type of people

  • how have all of the resources depleted back then yet today we are all surviving with a much larger population? Granted "the white man" should have tried to make more peaceful relations with the natives.

  • In 2005 the Indigenous Population of the American Continents was nearly 600, 000, 000. We are nearly 1 billion and still rising.

  • What I am saying is if the resources were used back then, they wouldn't be here today... they are here today. They weren't used yesterday.

  • Oil has been depleted, Gold has been depleted and other various precious minerals have been depleted. Also if you didn't know, most of our things are imported so we don't have as much resources such as oil or gold. DERRRRRRRRR.

  • Of course we import. Our manufacturing base is gone. Did you know we export raw materials to foreign countries like russia and china? RAW MATERIALS? HAve you ever seen those boats with old cars and scrap metal stacked on it's way to be refined in another country? We have raw resources.

  • once gold was there necklic they were fooled and killed for mammon and land sad give ther culture god bless***********************S

  • Killthem ALLLLLL kill kill kill WOOHOO COWBOYS.

  • Keep your shitty perspective to yourself. The damn cowboys did nothing but steal and kill!!!! Im a half-breed but im choose to be more idian than white because i dont want to be in the same race like a bastard like you!!! ( No offense to any1 else)

  • you are likely to banned for hate crime...too bad you weren't standing next to Custer then...a same heroic demise?

  • You insult me, my people and my ancestors. My family did what most did, by joining the society. They worked hard and took nothing free. My grandfather from the reservation and father refused the free land, or casino money, or hand outs. They worked hard in construction to raise a family and have a nice four bedroom home like anyone else. Never foods stamps or welfare, NEVER. And paid my college tuition. What we have WE EARNED. We are proud and we are Cherokee Americans. Keep your charity.

  • i am british and truley ashamed of what my people did and i want my ancestors to change so i could be a native american but i've been told some natives will accept me

  • Yes, you can be adopted by the PEOPLE, but probably not by the Tribal Government which is of no importance to a militant traditionalist - I have a white friend of Scottish decent who was adopted by the Navajo and they call him a Navajo - he is very much beloved by the Indian people that he comes into contact with.

  • Hi Kilynhoward, thanks for sharing your comment and please know that there are people on your side :)

  • god bless all of you. i would LOVE to volunteer for you guys but im down in texas

  • The foreigners (whites) created welfare. When they invaded our indigenous populations. They established poverty. A condition that never existed before. Every foreign value brought by the Europeans and their descendants has failed. Their laws, their education is sometimes reflected in these YouTube posted comments, and their Christian religion justify the most horrific crimes known to mankind.

  • agreed

  • Can you share what it was in your life that you thought was hard? There are many fearless white Americans who risk their lives to give Indian people a voice in Mexico, South America. And some do lose their lives. The white women are targeted the most it seems with intimidation, rape and so on.

  • These women willingly suffer the same things Indian people suffer. They must flee for their lives or fight back at times. What you go to see in the movies is real life for these fearless young women. They are truly defenders of justice.

  • I sense that you have not done much research in your conclusion that the Native Americans are becoming extinct. Your conclusion would be similar to me saying if Russia bombed the United States and all its white population annihilated. That the white race is now extinct this of course would not be true. Europe, Russia and Australia etc., would also have to be annihilated for that to be true. White people dont exist in America alone.

  • Native Americans in Mexico outnumber the non-indigenous population by millions. If I were to draw a line across you neck, then your arms, elbows, wrists, fingers, waist, legs, feet, etc., would you be able to say that your legs are no longer a part of you? Of course not, these lines are imaginary like the borders. Beyond those borders are Indigenous people in Brazil, Bolivia, Argentina, Panama, Colombia, Canada etc., combine all these Indian people and we outnumber whites.

  • I thought I had it bad. Native Americans are damn there extinct. Alot of this is attributed to the handouts that they receive from the government. It deprves them of the self-sufficiency that they once boasted.  It's nothing but welfare with a different name. What do you guys think?

  • This entire continent was once united in peace. But pride slowly encroached our people and brought division, murder, wars, centuries before the arrival of the Europeans. (During the period of when pride invaded our people nearly 2,000 years ago. The Warrior Indians origins are rooted in murder of children, women, and the innocent out of hatred, revenge.) Warriors or soldiers originate from cowardice. There are no chiefs or warriors in our community. No one is above another.

  • If Christian teachers would accept the bibles fallibility they would discover a loving God of kindness. Incapable of hate, vengeance, anger. This would benefit mankind. But christians would rather serve a God of death, racism, nationalism, a god of banners who fights on their side in wars, the false Messiah.

  • Traditional christians have altered & created a false messiah, made him, powerful, vengeful, hateful, angry or even American. A messiah that no longer resembles the one depicted in the new testament. With the discovery of the dead sea scrolls. There is now much evidence that Christ was born into the Church. Meaning Christian values, baptism etc., were established before he was born. This doesnt mean he wasnt the messiah.

  • There is much contradiction in the new testament that is not studied by Christian teachers. The apostle Paul altered the teachings of Christ and the early church protested and urged Paul to repent but he wouldnt. This resulted in an angry vengeful god replacing the kind loving god taught by the disciples & Christ. Christian teachers who cant accept the bibles fallibility answer is that Gods word cant be fallible. (he can be a racist but still love you?)

  • Any person can learn an indigenous language from books or have it taught to them. But learning the language doesnt make you Indian. Speaking English doesnt make an Indian white. How do you know if you are talking to an Indian is that he does not love this country. Which is foreign to him. He has only feelings of disgust for that foreign flag of the u.s., that only represents evil, murder, foreign values. He has no faith in any white mans government. Democracy, Communism etc.,

  • Here in the Midwest a community has been flourishing for nearly 30 years. Children born with out ever watching t.v., or eating the garbage offered in restaurants, grocery stores, etc., never using white mans profanity or any profanity. The most wholesome children and adults that I have ever encountered. The american way of living is foreign to us. No one depends on the u.s. other than to be left alone. And more communities will be set up in the near future.

  • Law enforcement, military have no purpose or power here. There is no need for them. No one locks their doors. The only time you face prejudice or harassment is when you have to leave the community and travel to the nearby towns full of the Christians surrounding the community. Boy do they hate us. It doesnt matter what flag I see in your cities. There all foreign to me.

  • Here is something that most Indians wont tell you. Traditional Indians (those who dont adore that foreign American flag, who dont depend on money or the U.S. Government for anything) are persecuted by the Americanized Indians. I am hated by Americanized Indians because I live by upright traditional values. I do not follow the foreign Christian God of serial killers, dictators, homosexuals & child predators. And we don't believe in the U.S. constitution that allows these monsters to flourish.

  • as a white american I respect that a lot. A christian god to this day has nothing to offer but absolute hatred, intolerence, bigotry, and everything else that is evil. i denounce the christian god myself.

    do what you do.

  • In our community we have accomplished what 2,000 years of Christianity have never come close to accomplishing. Equality, solidarity, no poor among us, a people who will love and pray for you no matter how much you hate and persecute them. Who adore their heavenly father who constantly occupies our hearts and minds. Our food comes from the earth, our clothes, our dwelling places from the earth. This is my home, the nation of the creator within the walls of this temporary occupancy.

  • so when they say that the native american live below "The poverty line" it is not because thay are poor it is that native americans are not materialistic people?

    although i read that native american tribes fought eachother in wars. with all respect this is stuff i know too little about

  • I think you are comparing us with Indians who reside on reservations. If Americans were to intrude our small community (which is not on a reservation), they would establish poverty amongst our people. It is the Americanized Indians who live below the standards of America. So those statistics are accurate in that sense. An Indian cant be an Indian on a reservation without being harassed by the Americanized Indians.

  • @Likathon i think the real jesus would be blown away to see his kindness and compassion for humanity turned into a psychotic religion that destroyed and still is destroyiing most of the world. most americans are dumb to fall for that christian crap and not think for themselves, to deny their natural instincts. oh well you sound right on. you sound like you have a peaceful spirit.

  • I was looking back at the comments I wrote & saw that I categorized homosexuals with racists & monsters-I really should apologize for that, although in or community a man must marry a woman, persons of alternative lifestyles are welcomed to live here, but can't act out their lifestyle, thank you for your comment, catalunarocks, I wonder how you feel about governments, the only government I follow is the one that governs a tree, giving it power to grow -or governs the river to make it flow

  • @Likathon you're really smart , you sound right on. i'm white american but i have to say I agree with you. fuck the christian god the big old white guy in the sky. as a woman I relate more to the laws of nature. i agree with you and respect where you are coming from.

  • @Likathon I agree with the part about government - our souls never needed legislation. the only government is the laws of nature. You put that really beautifully. about that homosexual part you're right homosexuals aren't the same as racists and monsters. but i agree that the christian 'god' is of serial killers, dictators, child predators, against the natural god/s of nature.

  • @Likathon thanks for sharing that. traditional cultures that have been oppressed with colonial genocide sometimes can become homophobic, like when the oppressed become oppressors. there are some native tribes pre-colonialism that were fine with homo/bi-sexuality. i have noticed that gays are persecuted in traditional cultures (and mainstream society),when really gays are suffering the same attack against nature/being themselves that natives/people of color are. we're all human beings.

  • @Likathon also, in response, this is probably TMI, but from the genocide and catholic boarding schools there is a high rate of sexual abuse done to native peoples, similar as my irish people. many people including my sisters who have been sexually abused become gay as a natural way to cope and feel safer. being gay is often a by product of sexual abuse/conolialist genocide. have compassion.

  • @catalunarocks  Being gay is not a product of sexual abuse..... It's a problem in the genes.

  • @5249north being gay is not a "problem' - it is only a problem if you are ignorant Christian/uneducated, or homophobic. how one chooses to express their sexuality is their right and choice and no one's business. some homosexuals can be born gay from genetics, but the majority have sexual abuse in their childhood history - look at the statistics and they find the opposite gender to be more comfortable, that is their right. don't judge another til you walk in their shoes.

  • @catalunarocks If you have been sexualy abused in your childhood, it doesn't meand that you have to become a gay for that act. Our sexuality not depend of any experience of
