While I disagree that the people of the plains lived in peace since most were warrior cultures, it is sad to not only see the loss of these most sacred of places but the total disreguard of others to their loss. Studies have shown that when children lose their connection to nature they lose their creativity and problem solving skills. Destroying nature is the fastest way of enslaving a population of all races and religions. It seems some have already been enslaved and cannot see it. Sad.

The people of the plains, along with other NDN cultures, DID live in peace. Sure, they fought amongst themselves, but never they fight to the degree as they were FORCED to once the white man came here and took everything. Go to the mall and start grabbing strangers' belongings and declare that they are yours because you 'discovered' them. See how far you get lol See my other video called "Wake up, America" . It's been in design for a long time- all meant to control you. Check it out.

For The Great Spirit so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, so that we should not parish, but have ever lasting life! And the meek shall inherit the earth! Amen

[LynnyC]

and your point is....? Explain the thumbs down?

[Tinker2e]

Do you know how I can reverse the thumbs down? It was a mistake. There is no way to edit I love your video! I love your message.

[LynnyC]

Done! Thanks honey!

[Tinker2e]

I love this video! I was new to You Tube at the time. I do not know how I pushed the thumbs down tab. I believe we should save all of the sacred places. My great Grandmother was a Lakota Sioux.

@HangingTree I hear you. It's called diversity. And those tribes of people lost their ethnic identity as a social hierarchy enslaved people into serfdom, this continues today, in the same way, in a different form... Same scheme, different lives.

Great video. i love it. great work. so important.

I agree that what happened to the Indian was another horrific tragedy brought on yet again by humans. Although I wish the Indians would see that like their tribes there are many different tribes of white too and that some are more responcible for this than others. Specifically the Spanish and English. And now the tribe of Jude (Jews) is using the Indian story to further their destruction of the white race. So us whites are going into extinct as well.

This video is sensitive and poignant, but let us not look back in despair or anger, for where can such hopeless reflection lead us ? We leave behind us a path, strewn red with the agony of our wounds. Ahead, this turns to the dazzling brilliant hue of a Sun, rising in honour of our trials ~ This ~ is the true path of our destiny, and it leads to our fulfillment, and to ultimate ~ Triumph !

I have read some of the comments below made by critics. I learned long ago, "critics are "wanna be's" who will "never be". Hecitu

This by far is the best video I have watched. Very well done, my friend. Real words can not describe the feeling you have conveyed to me. I hope that many more will will feel the same.
