Apache Hate | The RUTHLESS Blood Feud Between Mexico and the Apache

[@Paquito-wz6eg]

I am Apache and honestly after learning history from both our perspective and the western world’s perspective I’ve gathered that we were problematic to everyone we encountered back then. It’s said that we came from up north in the Alaska/Canada area of the Americas. We terrorized the existing tribes that were already here. Neighboring tribes have stories about what my ancestors did to theirs. It was for survival and battle for resources. When the settlers from the U.S. and Mexico moved in our areas it threatened our control over resources which is why we went to war. Now today we are American citizens and fight the same battles against inflation and other issues together. Today Mexicans are some of our biggest friends and allies. I am expecting my first child with an el sinaloense. I will teach her about both her people and hope she will enjoy the food and cultures of both. How times have changed but not changed.

[@Kawaiijihad]

Mescalero Apache, I'm very, very happy to hear your love being passed on. My distant brother, we are unbreakable 💪

[@nrgpirate]

If your child is born with a blue spot, she is considered a true blood. Most of what was written about us is untrue, as they are accounts from people from Western Society, and not our culture. We never came from Alaska, that is a myth. We came from the Warm Springs cave in New Mexico from the time of the flood, Before that, these were our lands as was for the Dinay people our cousins. There are some that did come from the northern cave, but then it is also true south of the Apacherias, we had people migrate towards us. The assumption of us coming from Alaska is based upon us speaking Athabaskan, and the faulty Berengia theory. We never came from Asia, our origins are from the Americas. Athabaskan was a Northern spoken language going back at least 45, 000 years. So it was spoken by many groups spanning from the four corners going all the way up into Saskatuan Territory. It was one of the oldest languages outside of the ones spoken in the Southern Americas. Traces of our language can be found in Chineses, Japanese, Polynesian, and Tagalog. This is proof of sea-faring before younger dryas going from east (Americas) traveling West into Asia. So certain Asian groups are descendant from Natives and are tied to the Americas.

[@Paquito-wz6eg]

@@nrgpirate I’m sorry but I didn’t just wake up one day and read some of the information I shared then repost it. Apaches being from Alaska (well my tribe at least) is actually something that my mother was told by Apache elders in our tribe. The stories about Apaches were shared with me by members of other neighboring tribes. Whether Apaches or Natives in general came from Asia or vice versa is up to your interpretation. Not taking my argument that far.

[@nrgpirate]

@@Paquito-wz6eg If you had read my comment, I had said that some of the migrations into Apacheria were from the north, but they are not from Warm Springs Cave, they are later migrations, the same as from the south migrations to the north. This is what we say as Ndee' Hadaska or Ndee' Yahudah. Dinay have similar tails of migrations to become Dinay. Apaches were NOT a singular group of people. This is why some had clans, and some didn't. Some had stories from the north, and some from the south, and some originating from the Warm Springs cave. I had several Apache elders confirm this, including my grandparents before they died. Everything I have mentioned is verified both in the paleo-linguistic record, the anthropological record, and archeological record. It shouldn't upset you at all. It should make you proud, because being Apache is more than the surface of what most people know. As far as what you called the interpretation of Native Asiatic descent, I had done the research, it isn't an interpretation, it science fact, one that Western Society wishes would go away. Feel free to mention to your elders about the blue spot. They will tell you the truth. Peace Shikasen.

This is not true there are Apaches in Mexico but they are not by ethnicity any other tribe but their own. More often people misunderstand the fact that being Mexican is not an ethnic identity but a nationality so they're actually are Apaches in the country of Mexico.

[@dantheman7400]

Yes! There is a kind of “manifest destiny”in Mexico like in the US. Many Mexicans feel like Mexico had the “right” to Conquer the Apache just like they had Conquered and Mexicanized most other native populations. I have never met a single Apache, Oodham, Yaqui, Comanche or any other southwest US Native American that ever considered themselves or any of there ancestral lands as part of Mexico.

[@jinh817]

Agree! Mexican is a nationality like American (U.S.), but there are people of different ethnicities/races that are Mexican (some indigenous, but not all the same tribe). As far as indigenous people of North America- different colonizer, but same struggle.

[@sombra6153]

I thought you gave a good presentation of this particular chapter that, like other significant parts of the story, are left out and forgotten. I had read in other historical pieces how the Apaches and Mexicans were mortal enemies, which sort of goes against common narratives and concurrent malfeasance in education and voluntarily ignorance. There’s so much more to the story. What I found especially interesting was how the Spanish ironically seemed to have the best bad policy toward the Apache. And Fredrick Russell Burnham said that the Apache were the best trackers - they taught him the art.

[@leonake4194]

Yeah. We sucked far worse on our own in regards to the natives than when we were Spanish subjects. A big part of It was that 19th Century nationalism was built around the correlation of territory, state, people and language, so as any 19th Century country we went all in in our "Civilizatory mission"

Apaches were always being raided by Navajo, Comanche, and even Wichita and Osage raided them, stealing their children whom they frequently used as food for the trip back to the Ozarks for the Osage. That is a long under reported truth but documented by Chouteau and others. Apache were forced out of the northern states along the high plains and then pushed into the mountains.

In Elementary School. One of my favorite books I checked out of the library several times was. Killer Of Death. It was about a young Apache boy. Who whitnessed the Feast Massacre. Some of his kin were killed there. Mangas Colorado was his cousin if I remember right. In the book Mangas's right hand still showed the scars from where he had once been torchered by the Mexican soldiers. It's been decades since Iv read it. Though it would be considered a children's book. I'd love to read it again. It talked of how he and his adopted brother a Mexican boy captured when he was an infant. Hunted ducks by sending decoys down stream past the ducks several times to get them used to it. Then putting a decoy on their head and slowly floating close enough to grab a duck. From what I understand Apache is another tribes name given to them meaning Enemy.Because of how they were treated. They adopted the name because they truly became the Enemy of everyone else near them.

Ironically, my grandmother who was born in the early 1900's was adopted as a very young child and not knowing where she came from, rumor has it she was either Apache or Yaqui.

The "Societal lesson learned" from what happened after a newly independent Mexico could not longer afford to subsidize the Apache with food and other requirements that the Spanish government had been providing in order to foster a peaceful coexistence the Apache were forced into a situation that put them at odds with the Mexican Government and it's people. When a government offers to subsidize the lives of the people it is not a humanitarian effort to help those people, it's a means to gain control of those people by creating a dependence on the government subsidies to survive. Essentially those people give up their autonomy for the promise of a more secure, peaceful existence with their needs being met by the government. The problem is whenever you rely on the government to provide that which you are by nature responsible for providing for yourself you are betting that this situation will continue uninterrupted and without any change in the ability of the government to take care of you. The entire premise is flawed, as history has shown repeatedly because the government and the citizens do not exist in a bubble. Events occur that affect economies, cultural norms, and even the political ideology that created the subsidation of the people. Wars, famines, disasters, and time itself can lead to a government that either cannot, or decides not to continue the previous level of subsidies or end then completely. Doing this with a population that is no longer have the means to provide for themselves leave two options, starvation, or taking whatever they need from others through violence. The most important political understanding a person can have is that when a government takes control of something they do not intend to relinquish that control ever, not even if whatever reward they dangled in order to get that control is no longer going to exist, so it is in the best interest of the people to limit governmental control by maintaining self reliance and and a refusal to allow governments to gain leverage over them. Keep the government in check or the government will attempt to keep you in check, and the violence required to escape tyranny is a lot worse than the hardships of preventing it's arrival.

[@rcobb2979]

True, but what happens when corporations take over the government?

[@oldhillbillybuckkowalski]

@@rcobb2979 that's why citizens are supposed to maintain vigilance, and keep government in check. The Constitution was specifically written so that the Federal government would have almost power over our day to day lives, almost no military with which to get into trouble in "European adventures" or enforce tyrannical here at home. With so little power in the Federal government, there would be no real reason for a business to try and take over the federal government. The problems began when we went from the concept of electing people into office that had been successful in life, ran businesses, etc ... and where now, as community elders giving back to that community through service, to what we have today, career politicians whose only concerns are staying in office. When you have politicians that have been in politics, being in an elected office for decades you open the door for corruption to enter. If the officials you want to bribe into acting in your favor are changed every 4 years then the likelihood of you even trying to bribe them goes down. Why pay an expensive bribe now when you know that the person being bribed has almost no power and will be replaced in a couple years potentially making a bribe paid now a waste of money potentially because who knows if the replacement will be willing to participate in such corruption. Now we have people currently in office since the 1960s, who all the special interest groups know very well, and have paid them very well. This is how you get politicians who draw a government salary around $200k that have a net worth approaching half of a billion dollars. Somewhere along the way of our citizens became to self absorbed, lazy, and complacent, and allowed everything our founding fathers designed our government to prevent turn into reality. At some point we either accept it as the way it is, or we step up and take it back.

Geronimo just hated or he just wanted to fight or combination of the two. I’m not really sure if who he was fighting was that important to him. The man fought Mexicans, Americans, other native tribes, and most importantly he fought his own damn people. He once went to an Apache reservation and forced the Apache of that reservation to leave and basically kidnapped a bunch of them as he needed warriors and they were going to fight for him weather they wanted to or not. I’m not impressed by Geronimo. I used to be as anyone who hears about a Native American warrior who lived a life of constant warfare and won fights despite crazy odds, survived things most couldn’t and seemed at first to fight for his people would be. But once I started studying the man it became clear that Geronimo was a great warrior who had balls so big I’m surprised he was even able to ride a horse.

The societal lesson you raise at 4:10 is the same lesson that Peru has had to learn and re-learn: namely, that you neglect the people at your peril. When the Spanish arrived in the early 1500's in the Inca empire, they invaded a land that by no means had been living in sweetness and light. However, the sheer scale of the disenfranchisement of the native peoples was such that the effects can still be seen today: even after the ill-conceived 'agrarian reforms' of the 1960s, millions still feel... well, ripped off and ignored by the ruling, wealthy class. I think they have a point. This created fertile soil for the Maoist rebellion ca. 1980 of the Sendero Luminoso ('Shining Path') guerillas: the promise of sharing out the nation's wealth was just too tempting. There followed 20 years of internal conflict and mind-boggling bloodshed. Finally, after capturing the elusive ringleader, Abimael Guzman, the Peruvian government for a while did better at looking after its people. But now, over 20 years after Guzman's capture, the neglect of the common people is kicking-in again, and resentment is on the rise; hence the massive riots and civil unrest of 2022-23. To some degree, I think all colonial societies face this problem: the creation of a disenfranchised class who forever seem to hover between the promise of full participation in the nation's dream, and the margins.

Regarding scalp bounties, bounty hunters could recognize Apaches (they generally wore red headbands) they just knew to steer clear because the chances were high of losing their life. Rather they hunted other peaceable tribes or targeted women, children, or the elders that couldn't put up as much of a fight but had long hair that would be acceptable for a scalp. A dozen Apaches on the warpath would strike fear to surrounding settlements. Guerilla tactics, outnumbered but still dominated.

There is strong evidence that shows there were wild Apache in Mexico mtns up to the 1990s

Was assigned as U.S Paratrooper to the 82nd Airborne Division as a young Man in the late sixties through early seventies, we used to cry out Geronimo as a battle cry when exiting our cargo planes in mass! Assume it made us feel immortal & unconquerable as Geronimo was!

I'm glad you are sharing my peoples history. I am a Warm Springs Chiricahua Apache that lives in NM. My grandmother Evelyn Martine was the last Chiricahua Apache born as a US prisoner of war in Ft Sill in 1912. She was the great granddaughter of Victorio and Mangas Coloradas. She passed away in 2006 and like my mother was a full blooded Warm Springs Apache from the Gila area in NM. Her father was US Chiricahua Apache scout Charles Martine Sr who w Kayitah and Lt. Charles Gatewood found Naiche and Goyathlay (this is correct Apache pronunciation) in the Sierra Madres in 1886, to begin the rest of their lives as US prisoners of war till 1913.

Thank you. Sources are scarce but I am doing my best to give as much of the Apache perspective in this series as I can.

You should do one about Charles Curtis the VP under Hoover. He was Indian and participated in raiding as a boy on the reservation.

Geronimo was a Mexican, he was born in Mexican territory, literally, his Mexican tribe later became American when the USA took or stole he southwest, he was a Mexican, cope.

[@meritbrevity]

You think the Spanish making Mexico was any more legitimate that the US taking it?
