All Our Relations ~ Sang By: Ulali ~ Lyrics By: Pura Fe.
A note about "All My Relations" The music for All My Relations" is based on an
Irish drinking song from the late 1700's. Gary Owen is actually the American
pronunciation of two Gaelic words that roughly translate into Owen's Garden,
(and I do mean roughly) which is or was a place in Ireland where people gathered
to drink and whatever. It was listed as "Auld Bessy" at a publishing in 1788 and subsequently
attributed to "Jackson of Cork" around 1800. It was adopted by the American military during the 1800's
as a marching song.

It is often referred to as Gary Owen March or Hale in the States. It was often used by the American military
as they marched into battle to kill the Native Americans, most notably by Custer at the battle of Little Big
Horn as he marched against the Lakota Nation. It continues to this day to be used by the American military.
Pura Fe wrote the narative that Ulali speaks over the music. We use it as the background of the narrative to
commemorate and honor all our relations and others who have died throughout the wars.

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

  • @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!

  • @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!

  • 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.

  • @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!!!
