@1974backwoods You are of a school of no culture. Your God is only money, war, and bigotry. I thank God I know who I am and who my people remain to be today. It is a European thought that the past fades away, that is why they continuously war against others. When the brainwashed, culture-less, Godless barbaric European's way fades, the first people will rise again on the land God set aside for them.

@idahochas ..ps: listen to>>"Buffy St. Marie-Bury My Heart At Wounded Knee"

@idahochas .....you have to look beyond what you see to the deal goin on behind the scenes. so i introduce you to John Trudell. his is the voice that wants to advance! but the government, and government natives,(Scouts!$!), hold back this progressive element. because, as in the past, resources and land are a big factor in all this mess!..................footeno
te: the progressive natives i met despise the lazy twits you mention. -
@acerb45666555 "they are quite capable". really? every reservation ive been through is a complete shithole. and trust me, we have a few in idaho. ".....everyone else lives in drafty pre fab shacks!" i dont doubt this, because very few of them even work!! they EXPECT the govt assistance/handouts. regardless of your race.....you need to provide for yourself and/or your family. i get sick and tired of listening to how the "white man" fucked them over. it happened. get over it and move on and upward

@idahochas ..........they are quite capable of running theyre own show. but government suppresses the real leadership. so only twits are on the government approved band councils have any power. twits who like handouts for building big fancy houses while everyone else lives in drafty pre fab shacks!

@acerb45666555 who pays for the federal and state highways that pass through reservation lands??? TAXPAYERS DO!! theres my fucking toll right there! good luck trying to stop my cummins to collect a toll. how about indians take care of, and fund EVERYTHING on their reservations, including roads/highways, schools, utilities, etc. then you can collect your fucking tolls.until then, know your place.

Tribes are as sucessful as their tribe's people. A group of negative people will breed negativity. Grandma Amy, before she married Mr Atkins, did this as a powerfull voice for the Kootinai people. She was young then and had the belief that they were entitled to a few comforts for giving up all their land and how they lived. What my family has made of themselves, should be comended. And Grandma Amy a Great woman in Kootinai History. Pray her comon sence gives her body up and be our spirit guid

Awesome. I watched the film last Saturday. Sonya, that was awesome work. A story that needed to be told. I'm so proud of Amy, Muggs, and the Kootenai Tribe of Idaho. I hope all young people watch this and try to understand.

Rest assured, with whats coming everyone is going to lose something... Their are levels of unrest that have reached a point to which ...their will be a conflict.
IT ism y sincere hope that when it is all said and done that the natives of this land will finally have their human rights acknowledged by whatever government comes next after this one fades.
