I've been there. Sometimes food, sometimes not. Miigwich, Thank you for sharing!

[@JoshuaTaylor2016]

I am so obsessed with building to help others. Love you big bro for leading this revolutionary project. Just the beginning.

[@EndPovertyMakeTrillions]

Yessir! Just the beginning bro! Lets get it 💪🏾

[@boobhame1345]

If you wanna help, promote their culture. No more Capitalism, No Money, No Entrepreneurship, etc. What they need to Tribal Shamanism, Fitness, Tanning, Horse Raising, Marksmanship(Archery Gun Practice), Treelore and Herbalism(so they can make their own medicine), Agriculture(so they can have their own food), Earth ships, Collectivism, Traditional Clothes, etc. they need to go back to their tribal ways so they are self sufficient and not still dependant on the white man's odd way of life

[@pamelaconkin1361]

I've stayed with friends for several weeks with The Two Bulls and Iron Ropes. Awesome experience. Loved my spot in the corner of the basement by the oil drum. Seriously, my little cozy corner in the darkest spot. Good Times, Good People, and Good Food! 👣🦅🌅

[@jeaniemarczniec7755]

It will get better if one believes in oneself. Prayers to the Creator.

[@Queensley]

This was beautiful! Thank you ❤️💗

[@hannepinkava2522]

I have had dreams of helping people with making things on reservations, and then sell or give them away. Instead I have been busy making face masks, cold weather accessories to homeless people on Indian Reservations, and much more through Sewing for Native Nations 💞

[@lancebriggs4760]

They got to tilt the ground and sell their products outside the reservations and receive money it's not hard to become a economic wealthy

[@scarletttroquille3304]

Mechanics, tireshops, firewood , all good Bussiness. Women need to make quilts, PJ's, socks, to sell. Plant trees , for Cabin building and firewood. Thanks again

[@rayorourke3939]

So how's the fight to end poverty going??? 🤔. We are a big reservation... I'll pray 🙏for miracles.

[@cz1498]

Each episode is a heartfelt look at poverty across the US and the benefit of UBI Support the movement! Please Share ❤️🙏🔥

What is poverty and what is happiness, it's the way one feels of who u r that matters. Before white man there was no wealth or poverty people lived to live in a small communal. No money just living life for what life was. Money is the root of evil, but to feel good is worth more than paper can give. Happiness comes from within, by turning negative emotions into positive ones, cast off negative spirits and live. I grew up in poverty being an immigrant, and i grew up happy as can be. I live under the poverty level now, but i'm happy and i do as i do to be happy. I made my life so i don't have to worry about money, not rich but i have what i need.

[@Cidanandas108]

Ancient Indians were not fat,as they exercised,daily,hunting. Its a genocide,by food n "medicines" I notice also bare land,that could be full of fruit trees n vegetables,as well as cows for milk.

[@vuho7832]

There's just too much pain here, guys. Way too much pain for people who deserve a whole lot better than what they've gotten.

[@claradavis5911]

Looks like they can use Habitat for Humanity housing that program Jimmy Carter started years ago, this would be good or great 👍 for them if they could help themselves and also other people leading a helping hand with donations like clothing, and the red cross for health reasons and resources, and education. Also, i have always been a person who believes in God help people who help themselves and always praying at the same time sometimes you have to read the holy word from the Bible in order to believe. Godbless 😮😊

[@SaffiyaKhan-gj4wk]

All that land look what thay could do on there for them housing more shops restaurants kids libraries kids youth clubs for kids on the school holidays u could build them so much even a museum for visitors non native its history everyone loves history giving people jobs the government needs to help them to help themselves its the only way there should be cameras up for there own safety

[@cookiekay9580]

I've been watching as many videos as I can on pine ridge. I always wished I lived on a reservation myself. I've always rehabed animals and been outdoors kinda a loner. One example being falconery... I would have to take a test with dnr find someone to sponsor me for 2 years. I've already saved an owl... I feel that should be everyone's birthright!!! I test water for private lab contacted by epa reports to epa... so I help people follow permits. Epa is not what we're made to believe it is... they only care about profit and control. Since epa dnr we have been removed from food chain can't just go hunt or fish... why do you think everyone is so over weight and dependent on the gov. I hate to see these amazing people feel they have to simulate inorder to survive. Indigenous people on reservations are kinda my last hope to keep simple birthrights of humans on mother earth

[@tonychapa3330]

It's sad how the people from the outside still like to go to the reservations and look at us like petting monkeys

[@donnavorce8856]

Or to see how they might fit in and help the nation?

[@Obamas_Nipple]

aint nobody coming to pine ridge unless they have to homie

[@thestonedsailor6072]

True free market capitalism is the only way to end poverty.

[@Obamas_Nipple]

bingo, they need to quit hanging around marxists who use them for political eye candy. Not saying they need to integrate into American culture but damn theres many ways they can bring in revenue for the reservation or trade for resources

[@washingtondale]

Dr. Phil says, “how’s that working for you?” to provoke change. Welfare, resources + human capital in hand: Management is the problem.

[@nolanpahmahmie8934]

Ahoo. Some good words

[@susanr1903]

Do tiny house...get skill and open abusiness if you can ..

[@SpectrumIris]

Why the natives from Las Vegas don't help Lakota people? I mean, they have casinos don't they?

[@spartanracer]

Well first because the natives of Vegas (and Nevada) have no direct connection with the Lakota who are in another state away in Montana. The Paiute reservation is near Vegas but has no real casino nor any money to siphon to Pine Ridge. The casinos in Vegas are almost all corporate and have zero link to any natives.

[@SpectrumIris]

I think that all the indigenous reservations in the United States should unite and help each other, and not only those in the United States but the indigenous people from all over the world, in fact some distant ones are in contact to support each other as they can since all their ethnic groups are threatened by the Western system, I'm talking about those from Australia, those from the Amazon, those from New Zealand, the Zulu, etc.@@spartanracer

[@SaffiyaKhan-gj4wk]

Beautiful people shame on the people who keep the funding money for themselves and there families and let the rest live like animals it's not right u should be making your land better and give people hope and stop the circle everyone stuck in and stop the trauma them babies deserve better

[@Someonelse1224]

​@@SpectrumIris they do. Almost every tribe stood with the soux tribe at standing rock. To protest the pipeline back in 2016.

[@simonayou34]

Imagine that all the tribes or reservations exchange their goods​ between them. I think a lot of people will have jobs, from truck drivers to managers. Unfortunatly in this world nobody can survive without money, so they should sell the extra to others. My opinion.@@SpectrumIris

[@theressamurphy2996]

I read that South Dakota is a great place to live because of less taxes?

[@oliverclothesoff4142]

They wear fringes they they tribe of Gad

[@pandacookie6503]

We pray all nations come together in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior amen from the two sisters with God's love ❤ amen

[@Yeshuaelohim616]

Thankyou Panda Cookie. It might help when they realise i am also Crazy Horse. Watch my videos start from the beginning. Amein.

[@oxfordmontello3281]

They live the way they live by choice. What do they do with all the federal aid and the casino money. There is no reason to allow your property to go crap just because of the "we are the victims" mentality. You can lead a horse to water but you cant make him drink.

[@darrenchilds8980]

They don’t even get that casino money they literally are the poorest in the country barely making 1000 a month

[@oxfordmontello3281]

@@darrenchilds8980 Just enough to buy a good supply of booze.

[@spartanracer]

To be fair though the tribal government has a lot of nepotism going on. Most of the aid goes to families of said government employees there. But that’s all I can attest to. It’s more than just that.

[@lancebriggs4760]

African-Americans would love to receive a reservation our own land I bet you will know how to build it up we don't need no help❤
