Thousands of years of brutal, hardcore battle and for so much of it went on obliviously to the rest of the world. Good stuff, my man.

[@estherhemming2314]

True history of the old west and how the indigenous tribes treated each other is hard to find. Thank you.

[@HollowHorn75]

As a Dog Soldier or "Hotametananeo" (Means DogMan) the first story is wrong about our name and weapon, the Crooked Lance Warriors are the warriors from our Elk Horn Scraper society, the Crooked Lance is their weapon. Each society had a different weapon, us DogSoldiers use long 6-7 foot long straight lances.

lol!!!! You behave like you’re an actual Native American! Oh wait…..you are an actual Native American! Well in that case I rather believe you, sir

[@KiNgSaRcAsMoNe]

@@HollowHorn75 I wanted to ask (I am a German living in England so no American) why is the world coming after Isreal defending itself but calling for the world to condemn them for genocide (laughable when you look at Jewish history, they are the only people (closely followed by sinti and Roma) who have been hunted to near extinction for thousands of years while I wonder where the voices are for what happened to your people and fellow tribes? I mean they stole your land, killed your ancestors and mouth off towards other people, how does your family/tribe deal with the trauma inflicted on you guys? (Genuine question, I do apologise)

Fremont bought Alcatraz Island for $300 from a Mexican goat herder. Kit Carson was also married to two different Native American women. Fremont could also be remembered as first to free the slaves in Missouri in 1861, but they where only free for a few weeks because Lincoln rescinded that by executive order.

Thank you ! This reminds me a great deal about the Musket Wars here in New Zealand between the different Iwi (tribes) from the 1800 to 1842. It wasn't like the USA and Canada, here in New Zealand the victor normally ate their victims, some were lucky or unlucky to be slaves! Maori killed each other to such an extent that the number killed in these tribal wars was the same as what New Zealand lost in WW1 and WW2 combined! This why the Treaty of Waitangi saved Māori from exterminating each other by all the Tribes giving Sovereignty to the Crown.

As a full blooded Flat Rock Indian, let me thank you for your work and ask you to stop calling my people "indigenous," or whatever term the liberal Whites have come up with most recently. We are proud to be Indians, and refer to ourselves as such. We also know better than to claim to be the original people of this country, as we know that if you go back in history far enough, you will find many others of other races that came before us and built civilizations that rose and fell, as all things do.

My older brother was raised by our dad. I was raised by our mom. Back in 1990, my brother told me we're Scottish and Blackfoot on my dad's side. I didn't really believe either because my mom is Norwegian and German. I've had my DNA tested and done tons of research. I did have countless ancestors within the last 50 to 200 years who lived in (modern day) Montana, Dakotas, Washington, Oregon, and British Columbia. My DNA is Scottish 20%, Norwegian 16%, German 15%, Irish 15%, English 12%, Sweedish/Danish 12%, Welsh 5%, French 3%, Native American 2%, Finnish ~>1% It's not impossible for me to have a recent Blackfoot ancestor. 1:13:45 This story hit a bit too close to home for me. Within the last 2-4 generations, I have 2 lines of ancestors with the surname Williams, one with the mane Young, one Maxwell, the latter being my mom's grandma's maiden name.

[@JoshuaTraffanstedt]

I heard a story once about some soldiers getting overran by natives during the American and indian wars and most of the soldiers were crying and begging for their life (i believe the commanding officer even shot himself so he didnt have to deal with it and left his men to fend for themselves). Well there was one that fought with his gun until he was out of bullets, then used his rifle to hit until it broke, then he fought with his fists, feet, and even a trumpet hed found on the ground. The indians killed him finally, but respected his bravery so much that they wrapped his body in buffalo robes and his was the only body they didnt desecrate. They wrapped him with all of the things he used as weapons and arranged his body respectfully. They mutilated all the others. They respected him because he was a warrior. Just a young kid as scared as everyone else, but fought anyways right to the end. I forget the name of the battle, but i wish i could find out more about it. Its an incredible story.

While important to recognize and understand the horrors committed by the Europeans and Americans to the natives it also very important to understand that it went both ways and I was not that Europeans were barbaric or the Americans were barbaric or that the natives of the many tribe were barbaric. They were all people and they were all barbaric and they all did horrible things to each other but they also did great things to each other while some may be small in comparison they still happened. What is best to do is learn from the history going forward learn the of men who fought and died whether for right or wrong cause. We should leave the past where it is but not leave it behind because all the men, women, and children involved in the conflicts and wars whether within native on native wars or native on European they are all dead and there is nothing you can do in todays world that will fix what has happened because it has already happened.
