The year 1911 was a low point in history for Native Americans. Contact with white men's diseases and violence had reduced their numbers from over 10 million to less than 300,000. In California, there were only 50,000 Indians alive. Most were living on reservations or had been assimilated into the general population.

The movie starring Graham Greene as Ishi is heartbreaking. The Last Of His Tribe is the movie. I purchased it from amazon. The movie brought me to tears.
I would love to see it, but paying $35 for a movie to be posted from overseas in this day and age is a bit much. Very sad, I have read up all I can. Maybe after 16 years the film could be compressed and released on you tube?
Sanfranman123: Thank you for your kind comments on our film Ishi, the Last Yahi. Ishi is a remarkable representative of the indigenous peoples of North America. Ishi's powerful story inspires me and I know many others.
When Ishi took his prayers to 'outer ocean' after hereing of the start of world war 1. His words are as relevant then, as today. for Peace. 'once again we see'...
Thank you for your comment. Ishi was such a remarkable representative of his people. He made the transition from aboriginal America into the twentieth century without losing his own sense...of who he was...a Yahi.
