what a surprise in my feed. Brought a tear to my eye as I remember traveling with my now deceased son Dominic when he was 9 in the mid-90's. We went from WI to Sedona AZ, to surprise his dad and grandmom, who were just finishing canoeing, camping the Gila river. Instead of flying,.since it was Easter vacayfor Dom, thought it would be an adventure to take a Greyhound bus. Besides stopping at every little town, and literally stopping at "poles" with the logo atop, our driver got lost and had to turn around in the desert in the middle of night. Then we were caught in a honest to goodness sand storm, then as we got to Flagstaff a mountain snowstorm. I finally had to call and let the loved ones know of our sudden plans because we were a day late and we needed a ride to Sedona. thanks for the memory. Helen T.

The fact that you recognize this makes me smile. My family and I came to the US from Tunisia when I was 2, and as I've aged, I'm 40 now, my thirst for knowledge re: the founding and evolution of this country is insatiable. What I find sad, and I really do feel sadly, is how most American-born people my age, could not care less about learning about the tenets, traditions, history upon which America is built. Im generalizing, but why is my generation of native-born citizens so incurious about their home, a place that so many like me now call home? How many Americans move to another country and know more about their country's history than those whose family's have lived for hundreds of years? 0.00001%? I am the most proud person of America I know and I find that so strange! The fabric of the Western world, especially the US, is being torn from the seams, and no one wants to acknowledge it; its as if they are ashamed, scared to speak up. 😢

Cognitive dissonance it what you fell right now. if you benefit in any way shape or form from the oppression of these people if you are still on there land doing business you are still oppressing these people and it's sad because the devils the went to America will never go until they are defeated the same way they defeated the indigenous people of that land because they have no hearts or souls and can never get soul.

@@dannygrapes5736 Sadder still when people try to play off like it was some peaceful utopia where they all got along, and there were never any fighting, killing, and conquering another group and took their stuff. Of course the rest of the world knows this noble Redman myth to be a complete work of fiction, but yet you persist in retelling it over and over again. For what? Give these people their due respect as great hunters, and mighty warriors who had their traditions and places of honor in the historical records of the West. They were not perfect, and there is no need to be. No group is, but this attempt to make them out to be something that doesn't exist really gets old. I grew up in a small town in SW Nebraska near a monument for a place called massacre canyon. The Arapahoe tribe was there hunting buffalo for winter camp and a they were attacked by a large war party of Lakotah. They men of the Arapahoe fought a rear guard action while their women and children retreated up a nearby canyon and prepared for their final stand. There was no way they could escape the group, but before they could finish up killing the rearguard, there was a bugle call from over the next ridge, and here came a troup of cavalry from a nearby frontier fort. They drove off the party of Lakotah and escorted the survivors to the fort to receive medical treatment and keep the Lakotah from coming back. What was left of the Arapahoe left Nebraska and went the Indian Trerritories. That canyon was almost their final resting place because they hated each other more than they hated the white man. Even now in modern times their were a few attempts to see if the Sioux and Arapahoe would try and bury the hatchet, but even then the bickering feuding was so bad that when the government stopped paying them to participate in the event they stopped doing it altogether. The human condition is hard to fathom some times.

The Eastman Johnson collection containing the Ojibwa material is fantastic. The original strap dress that he collected and depicted in the painting of "Minnehaha" (lame title I know, from Longfellow's "Song of Hiawatha") is incredible. Just a note: the Dress, leggings and detachable sleeves are made of red and blue STROUD CLOTH (an imported trade item from England) and is not a "blanket" material, as it is a fine, garment weight wool, although pieces of Stroud cloth were indeed worn as a lightweight shawl blankets by both men and women. The white pattern on each hem was technically the "selvedge" and was kept out of the dye, one can even see the stich marks which sewed a canvas cover on each edge so it would not bleed into the white. Next to guns, it was the most expensive commodity on the frontier.

Do you think, more or less % would survive, if the numbers were 50 or 500 people, and you also don't put a name on the island, that could be a warm one with lots of fruit and animals, but also could be Greenland.. Do I need to point out more flaws in your noise.?

Leave it to the government to take away the ability of people to live the way dorthy did. And to what end ,it's not like she was harming the area she was in. As a matter of fact she did a great service to many people when they were in desperate need.

As a Swede in Sweden that have visited 36 states in the USA I would love to go back and visit MN for the first time! The three men founding the Greyhound company all had Swedish names so that museum is a must for vehicle freak like me. I also have a very nice postcard, the picture shows a big farm and it was sent about 100 years ago to Sweden from a big farm owned by Swedes at the time. I managed to find it today and it’s still there and even bigger and in full swing. Planing to do a documentary about my trip from Sweden there to give the present owners the postcard as a gift. If I manage to do it it will be on YT in the future. Only people get sensible and get their vaccine so we can start travel again.

Nice video, very interesting and well done. What I find interesting is the "anvil" made of basalt that the natives used to pound their smelted copper into tools on. I know basalt is very hard, so it would be interesting to know how they flattened and smoothed the top of that 50+ pound rock to look like a piece of flat iron. This would be much harder than most people would think especially with out tools made of steel. Even then it would be very difficult and take a very, very long time.

Our ancient ancestors were by no means lacking in the intelligence department. Early modern man and even Neanderthals had larger brain capacities than we posses today. What they could accomplish with their structures and extremely hard stone made household items in many cases are impossible for us to duplicate today.

@@johnmaccallum7935 like the taconite spear points and knives and axes that our ancestors made. Amazing craftsmanship. It would have to be in order to survive -40 below zero winters. Snowshoes, canoes, try living in the north without these and life would’ve been over the first winter.
