As a white South African coming from a country with many similaraties in our history. I find it interesting how America pays such homage to African American, but say nothing of the true custodians of the land, the North American Indians. They wagged the moral finger at us for so long. How many Native Americans are in government today?
my goodness those of you that chose to fight on this posting are disrespectful and ignorant ...your ancestors have suffered not you ...i'm a mohawk and proud of the fact ...your acting like savages no wonder people think us indians dont deserve any thing ..stop and think before you react ..this song is beautiful and should be respected ....and by the way years ago no one smiled because most pics were used for when you died ....now grow up and make a change and stop complaining ...
The only 'staged' pic was a painting. These were proud, dignified people.
After their land was ripped out from under them, their nations butchered,
being lied to, cheated,deceived and trampled by maniacs like Custer, etc..... why would they smile? I am certain they did before the first vicious Brits got here or Anglos'.
@borneo215 You shouldn't mock what you don't know. Lots of people died for doing that dance. You should learn respect for it instead of being a douche about it, js.
@giiwadinang23 ohh shut up nobody is mocking anything you sensitive asshole go cry about it your just looking for trouble if you are just say it and il show you what trouble is i know more about the ghost dance and native americans than you so shut up
@borneo215 Shut the fuck up asshole. I can't stand people like you trying to act high and mighty about shit, i fucking guarantee I know more about dancing than you. You mock shit you don't obviously know.
@giiwadinang23 lol you know more about dancing well good for you dikhead good for you i know more about the ghost dance and native americans than you and why shouldnt i act high and mighty to scum like you i should act like einstien too i cant stand little turd fukkers like you trying to start a fight without even knowing what your saying you stupid fuk your not on my level go talk to somebody dumb like you dont talk to me your making me more dumb when you speak your a fukkin disgrace to humans
@borneo215 Oh no I've made the the almighty angry. Of course a pussy like you will talk shit over the fucking computer, that's easy as shit. You say I'm not on your level but these insults are worse than a fucking child. I don't pretend to be anyone, but obviously you're to immature to take in a simple fact of the culture. So you can go suck on your moms choid for all I care. I"m above pieces of shit like you and i don't know why I'm even bothering with this.
how appropriate for columbus day... in memory of all the lost souls of the past and recent suicide / poverty victims.. you are lost but loved and NEVER forgotten. The ignorance of the heartless of the past and present will catch up with them thru karma..
i had my friends listen to this they may not have been ready to believe im completely different from them not just by skin but by culture believe and history im may have shocked them
@peasblossom1973 - While this is true, and certainly it's true that everyone depicted in my video lived a very harsh and difficult life -- it is important to note that the fashion of the time was such that having your portrait taken was a very solemn occasion. You won't find anyone from this era smiling in their photos - of any race. Also quite often portraits with Indians from this era were staged, and the subject directed by the photographer to look like a stern and scary savage.
My Daddy was one one of those people.....and he rarely smiled in pictures. But you're completely right about the staging. Wish we could post pics here, cuz I've got a pic from 'old Oklahoma' where no one is smiling....and it wasn't staged.
@JimTheUmp It should also be noted that many 'traditional' peoples (read: those closer to their ancestral cultures before so-called 'modernization), and even whites in the early days of photography did not smile in photos, and simply retained neutral / regular expressions. It is only in the contemporary world we expect people to pose with artificial smiles for photos.
That was my POINT! I was bringing to light how the hardships of the times were reflected in the faces of those depicted. I, myself, have both a CDIB card, and a tribal card. I certainly wasn't implying that anyone SHOULD be smiling......
@peasblossom1973 Why would they smile. People think the 1st holocaust that effected America was the WW. In truth we were shot like dogs in the street. Old Young women it made no difference. If we didnt follow thier way we were dead
Where we are from? The big question. The docomentation of the first american say that they are from sibera, from denmark, from japan, from polinesia, from china. And they speak not one word from Africa, Africa is completly forgotten in all history books, think about it. And it is not 10000 years ago its maybe 35000 years ago or 100000 years ago, all new ones kill the old ones everywhere, so think a lot about all this blood stories, think and speak. We are all nativs, we have all our bad stories.
I love this song. I don't like this song alot. I F***ing LOVE this song, only song that makes me cry everytime. Only song that makes me happy everytime.
@laccio1984 you have to understand the history of our natives, we the white man stole all of their land and continue not to let them in our world. You talking like just means your not very educated and are iggnerant to most of the natives are still starving to death.
@kelceelin014 Whats about Africa, my friend? There starving the people like flies every day and who cares? They are Nativs too. Maybe the oldest Nativs in the world. Maybe. I also dont know, nobody knows. Who wants to know?
Its thru YOU that they live again. Your ancestors are always with u, inside of u. Reconnect with them any time u want, just by looking inside yourself, & recognizing who YOU are!
@RamsesIreland if they came from russia or siberia why dont they look asian? i have never seen a native look like a chinese siberian or whatever native americans are taller bigger have a nose bridge dont have slanted eyes and look completly different anyone can tell a native american from an asian stop stealing there culture and people you idiots why you all want to claim them just fukkin leave them alone they know who they are and where they came from more than you
@Equationization No, they look more like the uropeens that claim to have discovered the americas(not). Stifle yourself, who but some overly inflated egotistical nation claims to 'discover' a country where a whole group of people were already established and living? Huh?
peace be with the spirit walkers may they lead and guide us to defeat the lizard skinned ones and the demons that roam and rule us now, free us from our chains and walk freely amongst the land once again so we can heal and be free Great Spirit show us the way may we listen and hear you song through dance and freedom give us the strength and wisdom to educate and free the slave, undue the chains of our minds free us into this world!

@1adadada haahahhahaha black by skin nigger by heart dont you guys have nothing better to do than claim native heritage for fukks sake im getting so fukkin pissed go fuckk off you and the whites destroyed my nation dont claim my blood when you built there country on my land did you ever care about us then no? so why now i will tell you why because your black race is fukkin shit you have no history no culture so you wanna associate with us get the fukk outta here fukkin pathetic you are

Have I told you yet how much I love this video? if not - I'm sorry. This is extraordinary - and I regret that more haven't seen it - because it leaves an impression that doesn't fade. My ancestors were Cherokee - and I will always be. Thank you for reminding all of us - of who we truly are.
i am a black 13 year old nd i play this songs when i need peace. i luv this song nd most people my age dont even kno this song exists.sooooo i guess im lucky nd plus i found this song on CSI:NY communication Breakdown i heard this beat nd i said i had 2 find this song!!!
You got the big drum in the distance The Blackbirds in the sky That's the sound that you hear When the buffalo cry You don't stand a chance Against my prayers
You don't stand a chance Against my love They outlawed the Ghost Dance They outlawed the Ghost Dance We shall live again We shall live again We shall live again Crazy Horse was a mystic He knew the secret of the trance And Sitting Bull the great apostle Of the Ghost Dance Come on Comanche Come on Blackfoot Com on Shoshone Come on Cherokee
Crow has brought the message To the children of the sun For the return of the buffalo And for a better day to come You can kill my body You can damn my soul For not believing in your God And some world down below You don't stand a chance Against my prayers You don't stand a chance Against my love They outlawed the Ghost Dance They outlawed the Ghost Dance We shall live again We shall live again My sister above She has red paint She died at Wounded Knee Like a latter day Saint
robby robertson sure cares about Native People around the world and this song makes me cry and im so mad at the same time what they did to the people. Native People are very strong and they will always will.
I would love it if someone could tell me where i can find songs with the same kind of mood as this one has for the first 50 seconds, especially with the kind of singing the man does in that part.
In the beginning, God gave Mother Earth her Children mankind. She was to teach them how to take care of themselves and eachother and finally her. But the Great Lie came and separated the family. Through realizing and understanding our relationship to eachother and our Great Family; Then we will restore life to it's truest form, together. We shall live again. Peace with love teli Nuttah Oya
Ahem...listen again...to the idea and common question..."why are Native Americans christians?" Because they know the TRUE christianity, not the one brought here by murderers and scoundrels. It would be truly diff. to ascertain on a Youtube comment line if someone were living their truth unless they told you so.
@LionProductionsTV I was just being silly. I can see now reading my comment that the joke didn't come out right. Guess I'll need to keep my day job. The song is great musically and lyrically. I thnk anyone of any heritage can enjoy the song.
@hwiseman1 Together we shall live again. The Rainbow tribe will unite before the Earth turns counterclockwise and restores balance. We shall live again brother!
And just for those who may wonder about my blood? I'm 3/4 Irish and 1/4 Cherokee. So if you go by blood, both sides of me know about being opressed by greater powers.
And just in case people start saying "Look at what the white man has done", I point to the Japaneese treatment of the Korea, China, and the Philippines people. And Mongols in the entire area of Euroaisa. It goes on and on throughout history. I hope we make it to a point where we discover that might does not make right and we no longer need to use our beliefs and power as reasons to exterminate others. Want one more example? Ever hear of gang wars? Smaller scale of the same thing.
A culture developed in the powers that be at the time and in many of the people in the contested areas that the only way to solve the "Indian Problem" was to eliminate the problem. This included the use of poision, guns, burning crops, salting lands and the first use in North America of germ warfare. The Army provided blankets contaminated with small pox to Indian tribes for the upcomming winter. Look in Africa, look in America, look in Austrailia, history repeats.
By the time that the tribes in the coastal regions learned that their allies today were their killers tomorrow it was too late to stop it. Disease, loss of lands, the killing of the youngest and fittest, and the belief that the "White Man" had to stop somewhere led to the elimination of many tribes and the dispersion of the rest to reservations and unwanted lands unable to support their cultures. As with any flood though, there were survivors who held on to what they valued.
Another breif history lesson. When the British, Spanish, and French first started spreading out in the Americas, their best allies were Native Americans who saw the newcommers and their power as a way to remove enemies from the lands. They were guides, scouts, informers, and in many cases uniformed members of the very armies and organized forces who were wiping out other tribes. They failed to grasp that after their enimies were removed, they were next on the list.
This song is beautiful.Being born and raised in England I didn't know why the ghost dance was outlawed, so I did some research to find out why. I was both appalled and upset by what the white man and the us army did to these people. Outrageous and shameful.
@TinLizzie551 Brief history lesson. What did the British empire consider the Native people of Austrailia. Vermin who needed to be removed from any land usefull to the empire. The clash of cultures continues to this day. A culture of might will defeat a culture of co-existance. Until our very natures are changed, we will always consider the world in terms of us and others. If we see others in the way, then the us will prevail in our minds. Read history and try not to repeat it.
@DouglasMiles1 ..I'm afraid I agree. Only until our natures are changed..and that will point to ethical problems. But until then, we will always see man's inhumanity to man. I'm sorry to be so pessimistic, but I believe we just aren't far along enough in our evolution to do anything differently.
why did the white man's god let them do the evil that they did 2 the native americns......what fucking god...its called greed and white boys are the master of that evil and it is their goddamn gods....have a super blessed day...amos N camden
@amosjordan The people who could do this weren't listening to god, they were selfish, weak, fearful, people who couldn't see beyond themselves. Greedy cowards always hide behind religion or whatever authority they can find to excuse their immoral behavior.
@amosjordan Who says they were following the teachings of God? I know it must be tough to separate the actions of some 'proponents' of Christianity with actual teachings they are ignoring.
I am so moved and in love with the medicine of this song. It calls to my soul and i to its message and sends this message to the four winds...thanks for sharing this with the world. Wado
Hate is not a boundary - it is a weapon........a spear with a poison tip. it not only poisons the target it poisons the thrower as well, and we are all infected.
Discrimination determines the need for a boundary and respect protects it.
mswaking ~ i totally agree with you! my father was as close to being a Native American, an indigenous people, in heart and spirit, as any I have met and I have met many. my father needed a lot of healing - he cried too many days for the People.
December 1st, the birthday of Durwin Whitelightning, beloved Heyoka medicine man, 35 year Sun Dancer, NAC sacred medicine carrier, from Standing Rock Reservation, North Dakota ~ whose life was wrongfully taken from the People in Minot, ND on December 9, 2009. Listen to the the Spirits! Clear his name! Heal the hearts! He shall live again.
I almost cried You can kill my body You can damn my soul For not believing in your god And some world down below You dont stand a chance Against my prayers You dont stand a chance Against my love They outlawed the ghost dance But we shall live again, We shall live again
I am beyond disgusted and ashamed for what white people in general have done in the past, I hate my ancestors for the horrors that they committed.
And I hate that Australia's true history wasn't taught at any of my Schools, they only give you the rainbows and ponies version about Captain Cook and the settlers, they skip the part where we massacred hundreds of innocent natives in the most brutal of ways...
Wado; I have this CD, for the fourth time, I keep burning it up and my friends keep borrowing it. Great CD, Great music, Great sentiment. Come on Cherokee.
@TheStuy89 ..remember when you blush, or when you are embarrassed or just remember when you feel the blood rising within you, then your indian blood will flow freely into your veins and then, and only then will your 1/8th part (The real true part) will come to the fore...You colour, your inner spiritual colour will show...All the best.
@darius777ful So you are 1 and 1/2 blood.....interesting, where did you pick up the extra genetics? Just joking, any Native is my brother....1/2 Odawa from Michigan
There was a white woman whom was pure white but beleived that she was native she married a native american and got in trouble and walked the trail of tears when she got to the conentration camp she looked like she was pure native one day i hope i look pure native i am an 8th cherokee but i look native in features i just want the color but as long as i have the blood i will have the spirit
Last week a precious wild mare was killed by BLM when she tried to help her foal escape, dragged, kicked, roped, then shot.. her foal too was killed. Many horses are dying..suffering and sold to slaughter. Please rise up btfl ones, BLM has cast war upon our sacred wild horses, 38,000 penned, 12,000 more targeted..now, in 2010, we need your voice to help, rise up with us now and let's call in a miracle in freedom, wellness and safety for our wild horses now. Wild Horse Protection Act Facebook.
i feel so strongly conected to this song being a quarter blackfoot it touches my heart and soul i cant listen to it with out sheding tears when i have left this world and get to the next i hope to see all my ancestors that have gone before me and pray that i will get to join the circle and be excepted with love
We all share one planet, Earth. It is beautiful and perfect. This song shows that we all share and use the same land and that we are all connected to eachother and to the animals, plants, ect. We must respect all. No one person owns all the land, it's all of ours to enjoy no matter what race you are.
@IsaObesiden I forgot to mention that I love Native American music and that I wish all the tribes the best in the future. Beautiful songs, beautiful culture...
when i heard this song years ago when the album came out i was parked near mt.Chief Mountain montana blackfeet reservation i heard the lyrics we shall live again yes we will..and my tribe was mentioned in this song .i felt good with this song over looking at the landscape across into canada this song was just soo inspirational. i know the other tribes were not mentioned still the song honors all the tribes in north and south america :0 iits-sah-gah-bii..
Although I am australian & have no connection to the american indians. This song proves we are all connected. The feelings it awakenings know no boundaries the spirit is in all of us
@ERBITONE When did you commit Genocide? If this is the case why aren't you in jail? Oh....sorry...you mean your so called ancestors..I see.....really this has got to stop.

Have I told you yet how much I love this video? if not - I'm sorry. This is extraordinary - and I regret that more haven't seen it - because it leaves an impression that doesn't fade. My ancestors were Cherokee - and I will always be. Thank you for reminding all of us - of who we truly are.
Love.

You got the big drum in the distance The Blackbirds in the sky That's the sound that you hear When the buffalo cry You don't stand a chance Against my prayers
You don't stand a chance Against my love They outlawed the Ghost Dance They outlawed the Ghost Dance We shall live again We shall live again We shall live again Crazy Horse was a mystic He knew the secret of the trance And Sitting Bull the great apostle Of the Ghost Dance Come on Comanche Come on Blackfoot Com on Shoshone Come on Cherokee

Crow has brought the message To the children of the sun For the return of the buffalo And for a better day to come You can kill my body You can damn my soul For not believing in your God And some world down below You don't stand a chance Against my prayers You don't stand a chance Against my love They outlawed the Ghost Dance They outlawed the Ghost Dance We shall live again We shall live again My sister above She has red paint She died at Wounded Knee Like a latter day Saint

And just in case people start saying "Look at what the white man has done", I point to the Japaneese treatment of the Korea, China, and the Philippines people. And Mongols in the entire area of Euroaisa. It goes on and on throughout history. I hope we make it to a point where we discover that might does not make right and we no longer need to use our beliefs and power as reasons to exterminate others. Want one more example? Ever hear of gang wars? Smaller scale of the same thing.
DouglasMiles1 1 year ago
A culture developed in the powers that be at the time and in many of the people in the contested areas that the only way to solve the "Indian Problem" was to eliminate the problem. This included the use of poision, guns, burning crops, salting lands and the first use in North America of germ warfare. The Army provided blankets contaminated with small pox to Indian tribes for the upcomming winter. Look in Africa, look in America, look in Austrailia, history repeats.
DouglasMiles1 1 year ago
By the time that the tribes in the coastal regions learned that their allies today were their killers tomorrow it was too late to stop it. Disease, loss of lands, the killing of the youngest and fittest, and the belief that the "White Man" had to stop somewhere led to the elimination of many tribes and the dispersion of the rest to reservations and unwanted lands unable to support their cultures. As with any flood though, there were survivors who held on to what they valued.
DouglasMiles1 1 year ago
Another breif history lesson. When the British, Spanish, and French first started spreading out in the Americas, their best allies were Native Americans who saw the newcommers and their power as a way to remove enemies from the lands. They were guides, scouts, informers, and in many cases uniformed members of the very armies and organized forces who were wiping out other tribes. They failed to grasp that after their enimies were removed, they were next on the list.

@TinLizzie551 Brief history lesson. What did the British empire consider the Native people of Austrailia. Vermin who needed to be removed from any land usefull to the empire. The clash of cultures continues to this day. A culture of might will defeat a culture of co-existance. Until our very natures are changed, we will always consider the world in terms of us and others. If we see others in the way, then the us will prevail in our minds. Read history and try not to repeat it.
DouglasMiles1 1 year ago
@DouglasMiles1 ..I'm afraid I agree. Only until our natures are changed..and that will point to ethical problems. But until then, we will always see man's inhumanity to man. I'm sorry to be so pessimistic, but I believe we just aren't far along enough in our evolution to do anything differently.
