Grandma dropping the truth bombs today. A lot of people don't realize that the 1860's was like yesterday, and all the trauma from everything that was going down under colonization is still fresh. My great great grandmother was fighting the colonial govt in Mexico in the 1890's as a teenager. This continent will return to the stewardship of her native people sooner rather than later. Thanks for the stories!

Many white people relate the most to indigenous ways. I wish for a Native American president. Joy in simplicity and nature.

[@NavajoGrandma]

@@jenniferhampton5171 I myself, however crazy it sounds, have thought of that. I was to run for Navajo Nation President but found so many of my Dine' who needed me in a lawsuit that we won in every court proceeding. My Atty couldn't believe he won because my belief is that there should never be a Navajo Nation President who does not speak Dine' Bizaad (Navajo language). The opposition went crazy and hated me, but it was okay because I pray it remains that our leaders should speak the language and not just English.

@@NavajoGrandma As a Native Cajun mix Mom was Cajun my Father was a Choctaw United Houma Nation mix I feel the same way about leaders in Both the Native and Cajun communities. One should speak the language if they want to lead people.

[@hilohaianmolinere7168]

@Jesse Caldwell You make a great point here. My issue with the Language is this, English is a very limited Language. I lack the knowledge to explain the difference between Cajun French and English. I am pretty fluent in Cajun French. A simple greeting differs greatly from Cajun French to the English hello. I once read an article while at Sea that said forgive me I can not recall if it was Navajo or the Lakota Language one is the most descriptive Language on Earth.

Mahalo Navajo Grandma. When Hawaii Statehood was announced my Hawaiian father wept, he said it would never be the same, and it's true. Our culture barely exists, very few speak Hawaiian. The locals cannot afford the rent or to buy a home and when we do, it's far from town in the middle of nowhere, slummy or dangerous (like where I live). I feel very blessed to have what I have. I love how you try to stay positive and I know there are events and stories you could speak of, to educate us, remind us, so we can all say the same prayer and hold a strong vision for us all. I feel like I've made a new sistah here! You can see me here on youtube, I played congas with Marvin Gaye Montreaux 1980, enjoy! With Warmest Aloha from Maui-Sandra Lee Akaka

That brought tears to my eyes. I was lucky to have two wonderful grandparents that were always there for me when I needed them. But they're both gone now but not forgotten. I left a reservation 30 plus years ago to better myself not knowing that one day I'll have a family of my own. I look forward going back home to see my family every chance I get.. I'm really blessed in life.. thank you for telling about how they struggle and overcame 👍🏾👌🏾

[@NavajoGrandma]

Now and then we need to be told the truth and be sober and appreciate all we have. We do live in a world of gimme gimme, mine mine, I want I want. It only leads away from being true to yourself. Being sober teaches virtues like love, care, concern, sacrifice, all that is Godly. Our ancestors all knew God and His love, they subsisted on it, how else could those build ships and many died to come to this land of freedom, give their all to come to this land, or our ancestors who ended up on reservations to make do with all that they had off the land. Struggles are beautiful, now we don't need to, now struggle to be wise, self sufficient, aware of the past and make it better. Loving one another and truly caring. Navajo Grandma

I was raised by a family where I was taught the best thing to do for the Native Americans was to bring them into our homes and let them go to our schools and teach them our ways. My parents became foster parents for native youth and we had native foster siblings! I watched them cry because they missed their families and their homes. I felt terrible about it back then as a child and to this day I carry guilt for my parents and other people just like them. They meant well but it was not the answer!! Thank you so much for sharing and educating and helping all of us understand there is a better way!!! I learned a lot from my foster brothers. I have fond memories to this day of Navajo language and totems and the things that they taught me. It has caused me to want to learn so much more about Native American culture and beliefs and tradition. But I would’ve rather them stay with their families and receive the help and support to their communities instead of just removing them from their homes!! You are a blessing!! I wish I could sit under that tree and just talk to you! And I am sorry!

[@NavajoGrandma]

Ok Amira, your comment here needs to be etched on every heart and buildings of these churches and leaders and any organizations, and I praise you for understanding this. You have give the most outstanding wisdom about foster care no matter if it involves religion or not. You said "But I would've rather them stay with their families and receive the help and support to their communities instead of just removing them from their homes." Oh my goodness, you are filled with pure wisdom. It didn't happen though. Many suicides, confusion, loss of language, sexual abuse, horrible things but some learned the whiteman's ways, it was good, but still a detriment to a certain extent. Your words and comment is powerful. You just don't realize. Bless you for understanding. Do not feel terrible as it was not you who did this, you saw and understood, you are not held accountable, be free and love and be kind. Hugs to you. Navajo Grandma

My mother was not native from this country but she felt it was very important that we knew the history and the truth about native people. My best friends were from the South Dakota reservation and I was taught so much that I didn’t learn from my mother. But combined learning taught me so much. My friends Steve and his sister were so close it didn’t surprise me that they died three days apart. Steve went back to live on the reservation for some time and we kept in touch. This is how I learned that his tribe and my mothers people had so much in common. I get so angry when I hear people speak negatively about native people. You may laugh but my favorite native person as a child was Geronimo. I really like that he was stubborn and refused to live like the white man wanted him to live. He was a beautiful person and I loved his pride. To this day he is one of my favorite still. I want to do a wall in my house dedicated to all the native chiefs by collecting their photos and filling the wall from top to bottom. You have much to be thankful for. You had great heritage and many wonderful chiefs and story tellers and medicine men and woman and a line of prideful people to be thankful for. I watch another channel all the time and he is a hoop dancer and he has such a beautiful bubbly personality and I hope that many native people stop the drinking and drugs and see what this one kid has so much pride as a dancer and they all work so hard and practice all the time. I want to see more native people love themselves and walk away from the alcohol and drugs and show the world they won’t fall into the white mans diseases and show how they won’t drink and do drugs and do what your doing by having pride in yourself.

I've made smudge sticks from the juniper. Nice! As an Ojibwe from Michigan, I learned long ago the ways if the forest, herbs and grasses to eat or for medicine. Now a couple years here in White Mountains, there are very new plants to learn about, some for foods and some as medicines. I have had to live in my van with no where to go but where ever my van took me. I learned a long time ago how to bathe and make your own porta potty and make light. You are so right!! Having to be resourceful to survive makes you able to survive. Camping rustic and boondocking makes you a stronger, wiser person. Now, with all the people suddenly with no jobs or places to live, have lost eyes, not knowing what to do or what should they do next. What did our ancestors do? As a child I learned these things. Now they have proven useful. There is SO much to learn and use from other cultures for good living and enrichment of life. Learn from each other. For many it has become a way of life and not just survival. We can do it! And, YES! Our government has screwed ALL people. The people are nothing to them. But governments of all countries through the ages have done this. History keeps repeating itself, few ever learn.

Grandma, I grew up in the city...sort of. Our home growing up was in the city, but we grew most of our own food. We had electricity and gas, but most of the cooking was done in the pit outside. I remember going to school and feeling bad for the kids in my class because I had my bowl of cornmeal mush for breakfast and all they had was some boxed cereal. And during the summer everybody around us had their houses closed up and were running their air conditioners and our house was all opened up and we had the wet sheets hanging in the doors and windows. When I got older I found out that most people thought we were poor. But we weren't poor, our parents and grandparents just raised us to enjoy the real things in life not just the easy things. The easy living can be gone quickly, but real living makes for a long good life. ❤❤

@@NavajoGrandma I loved my childhood. I feel bad for the kids that have no clue as to what family is and have an understanding of honoring and taking care of Mother Earth, Father Sky, Grandmother Moon and they will take care of you. Kids now a days know very little to nothing at all as to who their ancestors are or their stories of their lives, and that's where some of life's greatest teachings come from. I still use wet cooling sheets during the summer. My husband has learned to appreciate them over the years. He had never seen or heard of them till he met me. You and I would have had a great time together in my childhood because you are like I am and you see where the true richness is in life and it has nothing to do with how much one owns, but sharing and building memories with others and passing on traditions. 😉❤❤ Huge hugs to you.

Very pertinent. With what’s going on in Texas right now..... no water, no electricity, no grocery store is open. Actually things are looking a little better today.

How they were raised, how they are using their culture or traditions and teachings to continue in their lives even after their parents have passed or grandparents. Remembering our roots and the way things were done need to be continued through us, writing down our thoughts, remembrances, through our eyes not anyone else's is so critical to preserve our teachings. Thank you for t his awesome comment. Hugs. Navajo Grandma

It is a blessing Navajo grandmother. This society is bereft of the essence of life. They are chasing inanimate objects, spent time with machines all day and are never happy with what they have. Living in the desert taught me of the incredible beauty, the stillness, the expansion, the silence, the stars, the land, the community and the simplicity. I once spent time with a grandmother in Taos NM who made me fry bread and sang her song with a small drum and I became one with all life in that moment on the dirt floor. Poverty is being apart from nature, community and life itself. Difficulties and hardships make us Warriors. Bless you Navajo Grandmother. I got chocked up hearing about the bread and water of life. I understand. Thank you for sharing your wisdom. ❤

I reverence YOU, Grandma. You remind me so much of my grandparents. They were such simple people but, man, the wisdom they carried. I was closer to my grandfather. A breadmaker from central Mexico, formally educated only 2 yrs but he was so full of wisdom. He passed on in 2011 but I still call on him whenever I need guidance.

[@NavajoGrandma]

Another WoW story comment. I love hearing about your family and what wisdom they taught you. This is another amazing grandfather to some, 2 years formal education is nothing, but to some that is all they need as wisdom is one of the greatest teachers and guidance in our lives. We learn to know what is best, knowing the difference between need and want. What an honor to hear about grandpa and also that you still call on him for his guidance. Now here is a wise soul people. Our ancestors are as close as we want them or need them. The spirit world is here on this earth. Maybe in another sphere but it is here and talk to your ancestors, ask them for help as well for guidance and wisdom over and over again. Great comment.

[@robertcavalluzzi8112]

Grandma I would love that we have a garden together I would learn a lot from you it would nice learning together from each other

[@NavajoGrandma]

Well, grandma is waiting for her house to finish and yes, planting a garden is so very important. You would need to plant what you eat and not just what the seed stores give you. I use heirloom seeds, and some stores have them. They are not GMO (genetically modified). You want real seeds. I always prepare the ground with prayer first while hoeing the dirt. My prayer is that my dirt will be healthy and give the nutrition my vegetables will need, that it will be a holy ground for creation to unfold. That each plant will strengthen me and those who partake of it to be wonderful to the taste and full of health against sickness of any sort and to lengthen my days upon this mother earth. Then make it soft and a wonderful bed for my seeds, I add crushed egg shells in the ground, let it sit for a day first, then a few days before I plant, I put my seeds in water to get a little plump so the seed germinates and will grow a little faster when you plant it. Germinating does give healthier plants, in fact if you germinate seeds, you need to know which ones, you can put them in water in a dark room and little sprouts comes out and that has fantastic nutrition. That's another story. But back to planting, plant according to the depth to put your seedlings, cover them with prayer and dirt, talk to them, bless them. Do this everytime when you water them and tell them good morning and you desire them to grow as God created them for and that your feast is Godly when you bless them eventually and eat them. The way of the Native Americans is and was holy. Full of respect and everything was an element that obeyed God through prayer. I hope you read this and re-read this and absorb the teachings. Navajo Grandma
