Geronimo for me is a hero, I was in foster care from 1970 to 1987, I also call it a Prisoner of war camp as it was meant to take the Indian out of me. It nearly worked because after I aged out I didn't want to be Indigenous, until I was volunteered for a youth and elders camp and realized being Indigenous was a good thing. Up until then I mostly believed our people were not good people. Now I'm a knowledge keeper and continue to learn about my people.

It's a sad and horrible thing that happened to the American indians.such a proud and noble people. Although from the start of human origins one group of people attacked and slaughtered another group of people and never stopped even until today. I guess it's the way of the world to conquer and wipe out anyone different than you. But even the Indians were always at war with each other. And of course they conquered other tribes for land and everything else they wanted. I admire the way they lived and what they stood for.

That first photograph of Geronimo is such a telling picture of him. He looks tough, capable, and ready for a fight.

The U.S. Calvary kept well documented records detailing the war with the Apache & the surrender of Geronimo & the last of the warring Apache. Which was about 38 people including warriors, women & children. He surrendered to save his people from a complete genocide. Today there are over 850 Chiricahua Apache living.

My great grandmother was Chiricahua Apache and she was actually born in Mexico. Her family fled over what is now the border into the Sonoran desert to avoid the US Army soldiers in the 1800's from what I learned. They originally lived in Gila County in AZ and in the early 1900's my family was spread out in both areas. Technically my great grandma is considered a Mexican since she was born there, even though she shows up in a US census in Gila County AZ in 1910 (she was 10 yrs old).

@Rose Hines - How is Kristopher ”proud”!?? Those are your words/your ASSumptions! Ain’t nothing you or anyone else can do about how their ancestors conducted themselves that long ago, during a very different time and place in world history... you need to check yourself and also apologize to Kristopher!

Rose Hines you're an idiot. I didn't say anything about being proud. The comment was simply stating my surprise to see a man whom looked so much like my uncle and had the same last name. Probably should learn to read and understand English more precisely before deciding to critique others on their intentions behind their comment. Pure genius, you are.

Jerry, I'm both a PI and a huge fan of yours. As your content is of professional quality in its research, dialog and illustrations. Not to mention your choices and editorial pacing. Besides myself I think many would be interested in your bio as well as a separate "behind the scenes" video 📹 in regards to what you do and how you do it. Your process and production. ie : how you choice your subjects, time involved, research etc. Again, great job and much appreciation for your efforts

Yes, Geronimo was a Mexican from the tribe of the Apaches Chiricaguas, and fought many times for food and horses, as it was usual those days...

I love history all history I try to get a balance and perspective from all sides involved. I've always found indigenous native American history so fascinating. This was such a wonderful documentary about Geronimo. We must all remember to learn everything we can about the past there are lessons everywhere.

Since my childhood he has always been my Hero.He wasn't just a True Warrior fighting for his people,he was deeply religious and knew the mysteries of this Mother earth,very few know this.Its so sad he didn't talk about this.I feel,had he done so,than the more chance there would have been for Real Peace for his people. I grew up believing i was White and my friends at school would laugh at me and tell me " how can you be white when your skin is brown,your crazy ! ? I felt very uncomfortable and told my mom what my friends at school were doing to me and i asked her," mom,who am i then ? And she told me that i was Apache Indian,NEVER to tell anyone because our people were still in danger of being murdered by the Government and Descendants of white settlers.That i should tell everyone i was Mexican,that was safer.My journey into the Mysteries of the Aboriginals Worldwide began with my Hero...Geronimo !

Geronimo's name has lived on through not only history, but also through kid's all across America, just like myself in the 1970's....yelling his name "Geronimo-o-o-o-o" anytime we jumped off a high place or tree limb or doing anything we found to be Brave ! Thanks Jerry, now I know how that started.

Thank you, Jerry. I have visited many locations where he had lived, fought and where he surrendered at Skeleton Canyon. Having hiked many hours in Skeleton Canyon... the only way he could habe been captured was for him to walk out. I have visited Apache Pass (beautiful country), the location in Florida, and the cemetary in Fort Sill. I took the very picture of his grave marker shown here. It is my hope that his remains were returned to his home land he so loved. May he forever rest in pease! Small of stature; mighty in spirit. 🙏

So sad that he could not protect all those wives and children. The times he lived and died in were a horrible scar on humanity. All that suffering and death for land and slavery.Never forget! I hope his whole family is gathered around him in the afterlife and he is in peace..
