(1973, #1 NL) but did not chart in the U.S. where it was initially withheld from release and then banned by several radio stations.

[@jodyharnish9104]

I remember having trouble with our history when I was in grade school. I asked my teacher why we said that Columbus discovered America when people already lived here. She said that the people in Europe didn't know it was here. I told her that the Indians knew it was here, because they lived here. Then the people from Europe came and said that they discovered it because they hadn't seen it before. I asked my teacher something along the lines of, "If I haven't seen somebody's house before, is it ok for me to say that I discovered it and take it away from them?" She didn't know what to say.

[@bryonbiondolillo6545]

"Teachers" really hated the real questions, didn't they?

I have a new level of respect for this band. Not just because I feel a kindredness with them, but they were brave enough to put their truth in their music at a time when I'm sure many people at their record label told them not to do this.

Hello, this song was only released in Europe as a single, it was banded in the U.S.

[@dawnngl]

Havent got a clue why it was band h us 😠

[@ebonylilyofzion177]

It's because it would have caused unity strength and uprising during our most oppressive period. They don't want civil rights they want sheeple. They fear the power in the black and brown warrior!

They banned a lot of good native music. I wound up in Europe and had the chance to hear some of it.

[@mariarobles2533]

It should be re-released now in 2020. I think it will get a fairer shake now. People are finally waking up to all the injustices in this country and everyone is speaking up now.

[@PaulSutherlandnow]

This song was number one in the Netherlands when the song was first released, banned in the United States of America, I never heard of it until today. Was loving the song on the radio which queen of New Orleans, use my Google search to listen to the song itself and found about this amazing band. Aho mitakuye oyasin.

[@stoodmuffinpersonal3144]

Can't believe I grew up hearing "come and get your love" my whole life but never heard this song before?

[@liaminfinaty367]

Banned in the United States because they don't want you to learn history and you know why I'm saying that cause if you don't then idk how to break it to you

[@Redbone]

@MsXuberant They knew the path it would take them to, but they did what they felt was right. And in the long run they had a great career, and they wouldn't change anything, Thanks for your input.

[@seiram-xm6yz]

Redbone voiced the truth.

[@usmc-veteran73-77]

Yes they did. And this is coming from White European American

[@rowdykindhart7115]

My family on both sides came to America in the 1840s purely euro-American but damn this was revolutionary and I hope it breaks through finally after being suppressed for so many years the way natives were treated in Americas entire history is repulsive I needed this thank you just discovering 2024 and will continue to play

[@joeydraper4794]

Saw Redbone when I was a young man, I have said this over and over...one of the best concerts I ever saw. I go by how moved I was by the music...theses guys moved me. At that time I was only listening to rock music.I went to a concert to see someone and Redbone was the opener. How good was it? I don't even remember who I went to see...but I remember seeing Redbone.

I remember that they told us the Indians willingly disarmed, and went to the reservations to assimilate. This is not old at all; I'm only 19. Little over 10 years ago this narrative was still taught in public schools. I thank my mother for teaching me what actually happened.

[@almatrujillo4134]

2020 first time listener. Thank you great song

[@joking_oregon1]

This should of never been banned from the radio, truth hurts but this is an important event in history, and shouldn't be hidden just because it proves how terrible people can be when they think they're superior to others simply because they don't understand those other groups of people.

[@trerolandscreations5989]

Why ban this from radio? Redbone were being really open about what REALLY HAPPENED at Wounded Knee. Many Native Americans lost their lives during that fateful event. Broadcasters should've thought twice before they made their decision to ban it. These guys were pouring out their feelings about it!

[@grandmapj2861]

When has man ever thougt out their wrong actions? 😞😟

[@mrqueasy1939]

I'm 60% Cockasian.

[@BuBs1970G]

Obviously they didn't wanna get in trouble for letting the public know about true events. It's easier to control ignorant people than it is to control informed people. Many people still think that Indigenous people were fully wiped out of the US, or that these massacres weren't real.

[@bryonbiondolillo6545]

There's your answer....but they laid this track down and here it still is. And they are dead right that we were all wounded by that (and our many other sins). That stuff impacts the soul of a nation. We have to grapple with it.

[@Maverick774]

It was a different time then. People weren’t ready for the truth. Happy that these songs are readily available now.

[@Sound_Hashira_Tengen]

Remember this is based on a fateful event on the Massacre of Wounded Knee Part of the Ghost Dance War and the Sioux Wars. I respect those people who fought for their Cuture and those who suffered in that period. ❤

In the Netherlands it was a big hit. As a little child I was really token by the lyrics. Even I didn't understand the language. But I felt the music and lyrics. I never had understand why the Indians were put in reservates. And sometimes I'm ashamed to be born white. When I what white suprematics has done so much evil through the ages. I really respect the native Indians as the only and real American. Hopefully that ones their country belongs again to them all. Bless you from out of the netherlands

For more info about the Wounded Knee Massacre, please read Bury My Heart At Wounded Knee. It's probably the most heartbreaking and infuriating book I've ever read. HBO made a film of the book in 2007 but I've not seen it yet, so cannot comment as to it's informational value.

( And Leonard Peltier?) And before I get angry or stressed answers here....I'm white-caucasian,female, & from The Netherlands. And YES, we are a country that accepts ALL people no matter where you're from & ALL have the same rights....I love the U.S. country...and most of their people...but the Government??? Love you guys from Redbone.thanks for the Awesome memories. And a big THANKS, for everyone running this awesome Redbone-site.TOP !!

[@angelquest1348]

bearone7777 I Know dear, and don't worry I'm NOT insulted whatsoever. It's the simple TRUTH you say my friend. And My comment was BECAUSE all that happened, and in fact your Governement hasn't changed since THEN....I may be of "white skin" but I absolutely detest what they did to your people & STILL are doing. They still treat you like shit,pardon my words. I've watched a documentary made on the Pine Ridge Rez, and it was heartbreaking to hear an older lady say, how they live up there,how they get treated and what Government and others,do with their income.So disgraceful. And as she was crying, the tears ran down my face as well and felt like if I lived only closer, I'd put my arms around that lady. Anyway, THANK YOU,bearone7777, for your answer. And I always loved Redbone to this day. Btw, Pat Vegas, the singer, is here and on FB, if you're interested.He's still performing.Friendly greets to you & have a Great rest of the week.

[@chevybabyprice]

I grew up listening to Redbone, They were great then and are great now. Our Federal Government should be ashamed of the past and present treatment of the only true Americans. They spoke of life and their history. How is that different then other groups of singers who sing about political subjects? They did not change their names to say look at me, I am now someone else due to my religion IE Cat Stevens is no longer that person, he became a muslin and changed his name.
