It could have been a simple love story, but when Native American Justin Irwin moved to a small village in central Russia to be with his Russian wife, his defiance of distance and tradition drew the attention of everyone. In the village of Slavtsevo, like in many small Russian towns, there are more people leaving than coming. With the population dwindling as young people head for cities to work, it was a true wonder when Justin Irwin left his home on the Lakota Indian reservation in South Dakota in the US to begin a new life in Slavtsevo.

  • @toneo2001 No, the Natives were just fine until the Europeans came and tried converting everyone to their false religion. " Either you believe in Jesus or we'll shoot you! " What has religion touched that it hasn't spoiled?

  • @toneo2001 I am part native american ( Cherokee) and half asian ( Japanese) and I have found myself taking on all the information, and education I can take. I'm going to college next year with almost all of it totally paid for. I don't use my minority as an excuse. I use it as a reminder that I have to prove myself. I am glad to hear about someone who is the same race as I am (:
