Rare Exclusive Interview with Havasupai Native American

[@billsadler3]

Yataheh Lorne! I have left several comments about you today (10/23/2024) on a bunch of related videos. I met you in 1985-6 on a camping trip with a bunch of UC Santa Cruz students. 40 years ago, I was the one who walked and smoked my pipe with you that spring day. I have thought of you often and hoped you were still walking the sacred path by the special places you said you'd show me if I ever return. I live in Washington state now, but, like the clouds gathering on an August afternoon, I will pitter patter raindrops of appreciation and good medicine from our sacred canyons and blue-green waters, and, salmon-like, come back to where something special was born. Peace, and full pipes to you, Lorne! Bill

[@billsadler3]

It ain't often ya get to click on a video and see someone you actually know from 4 decades ago... wow.

[@Diamondbeach]

Much respect for the Native Indians especially the Havasupai tribe. I will be going there now by second time and love that place so much. Thank you for allowing us campers to come into your land and get glimpse of heaven.

dont know if anyone gives a damn but if you are stoned like me atm you can watch all the new movies on Instaflixxer. I've been binge watching with my brother for the last few days =)

[@stetsondavian5756]

@Bo Jacob Yup, I've been using Instaflixxer for months myself :)

We are not Indians. We are HABASUPAI

[@dorianmclean6755]

So beautiful to meet you here...even 6 years ... I've met your wonderful Uqualla. Thank you for your words and life

[@stephaniesoward549]

Thank you for telling your story and allowing everyone the opportunity to visit your sacred land. I hope to visit with respect and honor in 2024.

[@K2WH]

I was at the Grand Canyon and had no idea there were people living at the bottom. Since then, having investigated the HavaSupai history, I have found a great respect for them to the point where I believe they live in a place and lifestyle that others would love to have. I'm too old to hike down there but, I might make the helicopter trip as a bucket list item.

[@garypeiz-fw4ns]

Your people are beautiful people. You are a beautiful person for being kind enough to speak to that young lady. Thank you. With love, kindness and a deeper respect for you. I bid you peace...

[@Shsdbdbbdn]

We should all be respectful to one another on beliefs and cultures. It's a beautiful thing!!

[@RR-pf4jo]

Glad I found this. God bless you and your people. I will come and visit you.

WAITING to get out to the Canyons. Especially where the Havasupai ( live at the bottom of grand canyon) allow visitors to rent a cabin. Turquoise waters/ Waterfalls MARK its divine BEAUTY. Pilamaya Lauren.🌻..be well

[@billsadler3]

My friend, Lorne is sharing one of the big, not secrets, but daily facts of American Indian culture (I know, but that one is "they" use among themselves, with appropriate irony, humor and sarcasm): Family Squabbles and inter/intra-clan feuds. Sigh... yup. Off camera and microphone, native indigenous first nation peoples will talk your ear off about relatives who drive them nuts. The Spanish conquered the Mexican indigenous empires not with superior technology, or diseases (that took a while), but with the help of jealous rivalries out of the empirical centers... Traitors, sabotage and feuds. (And colonization, genocide, eradication of habitat.. you know, our gift to humanity from across the seas.) Hi Lorne!

[@sukiyaki6804]

God Bless all Native American People!!!!!

[@laffilmfest3759]

[@bellas_adventure_s]

Thank you so much for doing this ! I was just there and it is important to note the land and culture you are entering. These people are allowing us to visit their beautiful land and we must respect and honour them !

The beauty of their culture. Just watching this man speak and listening to the tones in his voice. There's nothing but kindness. We can't give these traditions, lessons up. Thank you so much for making a piece of it permanent. His singing gave me chills in the best way! Miraculous.

My eyes flow with tears...beautiful ones......⚘

[@chewieone1064]

I, back in 1994, traveled from Germany to the States. Fate and foolishness washed me to the Havasupi people, where I bought one similar red tshirt as a reminder for an earth shattering visit. With a big seal on the breast, it was "my precious", but later, I lost it somewhere, dont know which country, and still wonder where it is. I cant remember if it ever made it to Germany or stayed in America, but i i still miss it. Peace \m/

[@Trakehner20]

Do they still know or use native plants/herbs of the area for food or medicinal purposes? That's a very beautiful piece of knowledge to have.

[@michazahn5526]

But of course my friend!

[@teresafernandez9849]

Absolutely!! I use natural herbs everyday!! Google loquat leave tea, my tata (grampa), used to send me to pluck them off his neighbors tree, he made a tea, he lived to b 98 yrs old!! He was ill only last yr of his life, amoung other great benefits, it's known to be an anti-aging leaf. Palo Azul if ur diabetic or have kidney problems!! Just a couple of many herbs we use. Cactus, prickly pear, full of good stuff, some scientists, say it's a super food.

[@Trakehner20]

@@teresafernandez9849 Amazing, thanks for the info. I've heard of loquat, though it's been awhile and I'll have to check it out. Dont they just grow in warm areas only? Never heard of Palo Azul. Prickly pear is one that is super healthy, aka Nopal, right? I've heard the leaves can reverse diabetes with all the fiber and nutrition. I might need it then! Powerful stuff for sure!

[@Trakehner20]

@@teresafernandez9849 also, I'm glad to know people are still embracing the natural healing way of life. I need to get back to that. It used to inspire me so much, but I've lost that passion.

Do they still have their reserve ??

FYI ...The proper term is Native American and not all of us live in teepees and not all of us get a monthly handout from the US Government. I live on the West Coast but regardless my people are beautiful from Alaska all the way down to South America.

Here after reading “I Am The Grand Canyon.” Not proud of our government’s actions. Thankful the plateau land “winter home” was restored to the Havasupai.

[@kaypee4704]

Native American Indian seem to be like a mixture of Asian and European...could their origin be from the Vikings and Chinese who came across the land mass. Their culture/dances, etc also have a lot of Viking and Asian commonalities....is there any research on it....????

[@hailoweenhailoween5264]

I'm Native American and I've always wondered about this topic myself. From what I read we are genetically related to the East Asians. They say while we were leaving Asia, we came across a people of European descent, intermarriages took place and after we left heading for the Americas. Even the Koreans, Chinese, Mongolians have stories about their ancestors long ago leaving Asia not to be seen or heard ever again. I also read that there's a possibility that Native Americans were ancient Germanic tribes that left Europe, intermarried with East Asians tribes then came over to settle in the Americas.

[@Qááh_Eskiminzin]

Well for us Hualapais we are our own people we are decendants of the YUMANOS. Our DNA is not similar to any other race in the world. Bones on the caves on the Colorado & Gila River are 500,000,000 years B.C. DNA from us and those bones were tested & turns out to be related to us. Those bones are not related to anyother race in the world. 😊
