Where can I order a copy of this video?

[bisbeejim1]

If you want a personal copy of this video I suggest you upload it. Google Chrome Browser has a way to upload youtube videos. This is the only way (at this time) to get a personal copy.

@longtail4711 Thanks for that info. Funny how anthropoligists tend to leave things out ...

@mariametko In my area (Pacific Northwest) it was a very common practice for many of the Salish and Duwamish tribes here to take slaves. Usually they were prisoners of war, but sometimes they were kidnapped. The Haida and Tlingit from Alaska took slaves from as far South as California. The Creek, Comanche, Yurok, Pawnee, and the Klamath also took slaves. Google "Slavery among Native Americans" and you will find many good books on Native American life and practices that mention it.

@longtail4711

what part of history that you claim where tribes engaged where Native Americans were shown to share the same traits of inequity with others ? I've thoroughly studied, both, NA and other primordial/ indigenous human history and nowhere do I find that about the early Native American.

oh, that's just SO true. There's a real logic in there I'm missing in most explanations of life. Thank you for this!

@bisbeejim1 Ok thanks. I guess that will have to do. I was hoping to get the video for my library so other staff can borrow it, I think it is an excellent video explaining wholistic health from the medicine wheel perspective.

We must understand that war, destruction, and imbalance has been a chronic human plague to all people of Earth. Long before the Europeans came, there was war. Tribes clashed with tribes. Natives spilled Native blood. We were not perfect. We must not forget our own history, and our own imbalances that we have generated for ourselves. It is too easy to blame others. We take responsibility for ourselves and our own peace as humans. Teach the Wheel to all humans regardless, and we will never die.
