Suicide rates, alcoholism among Lakota tribe | Hidden America: Children of the Plains PART 2/5

[@nisse5946]

I'm so humbled by these stories. These communities need mental health support, financial support, and lots of healing. These children are warriors. No child should live in such state of distress. God bless them❤

They're as opposite of warriors as you could get.

[@nialloneill5097]

In that kind of system, where everything is scarce, including love, some become stronger, others wilt and crumple. These were a great warrior race, as they had lived in nature, and so became strong, until the white man came with his greed, lies, and fire water. Their despair from the 1800's has led to a magnetic attraction and tie to many spirits in the beyond, who contemplate suicide, and, or, drink excessively too. The white man has much to account for, and it will be his turn soon, from 2028, as karmic storms return to him, for what a man, or nation sows, so must it reap. This land is, and never was theirs, for the Great Spirit ordained the red man to be the caretaker of it, which he did very well, before the whites came. To survive there now, you have to a true warrior, all the more so to flourish, for as the teacher stated, these children need to be nurtured and watered akin to flowers and plants, otherwise they wither away, and die! Aho!

[@nialloneill5097]

And soon the white man will learn that you cannot eat money, and neither do we own the land, for it all belongs to the Great Spirit, the Creator, and whoever defies this truth, is a thief, and usually a liar and murderer, in a plethora of ways, all the duplicitous ways of the white man! Aho!

I never lived on a rez. They forced my ancestors to sign treaty by force of rifle bearing soldiers.... to sign away whole state of Michigan for pennies, and negotiated individual ownership, then said we owed tax, a provision I see NOT that clause. I am no expert on pine ridge even as my daughter taught English and journalism at red cloud school. So many reasons not to drink, but they do. BUT...no one says you can't move to cities. We been shit on yes, but we don't have to stand there and let it continue. I encourage them to do so. We can compete, we can fight back, but we have to stop inter mixing. Or, we will cease being a 'race', a people. Oh , my daughter has a masters out of University of Nebraska-Lincoln . son just got a MD. we can do it Indians. Start with drinking-stop. then move

Then say: My God is Allah who has guarded me and guarded the universe with all the blessings He has bestowed. besides Him.

Lastly, although what's happening in China is wrong and needs to be stopped, even if she was Chinese, it's not like she is the one directly killing them. She can probably do as much as you or I can.

[@nialloneill5097]

There are clearly a number of issues and narratives that relate to your tribe's plight. I found a university course that's coming to Pine Ridge for a few weeks, or months, in May/June time, this year, as part of some kind of community assessment and development. It looks as though there have been a number of good initiatives begun that are offering some helps and services to the people there. The bison meat processing company, food parcels, Waldorf school, environment school, new housing, sponsors for food and clothes, new organic gardens, etc. The issue is you're starting from scratch, and do not have a level of basic sustenance in place, due to the meagre amounts of money that come onto the rez. My view is that capitalism doesn't work, and neither does living outside spiritual principles, for those are the only way to be truly sustainable, as we receive both spiritual power and strength, as well as help from the spiritual guides for our material existence, although this doesn't mean we will be rolling in it, but our needs will be met, if we trust !!!. And your culture was so rich in this regard, so, so rich...and wise !!! And you still have elders there who have wisdom. Do people not listen to them any more??? Not to understand the laws of the Great Spirit is to be ignorant, and therefore unaware of the causes of one's pain, this is why pain comes, so we can recognise these ways and find the way back to the path of the spirit. This takes effort though, and alertness and discipline, and this is why the elders with their wisdom I would have thought could help, but then I don't know the circumstances in your home, but it doesn't sound easy at all. Wish you well on your return there, and may I both thank and congratulate you on doing so, for it proves to me you are a loyal, selfless person, and know that good works are always rewarded in full, for eventually we do reap what we sow, many times over !!! All the very, very best with everything !!!

As I understand, the Native Americans were given the worst land, and in some cases, pushed out of the land that was granted to them. I can't even imagine how tough it is to live in those conditions. My heart goes out to the native people living in these deplorable conditions, especially their children. The homes, schools, lack of food...it's just heartbreaking. Alcoholism and drug use are signs of hopelessness. It is such a shame that their parents don't have the strength to overcome their addictions and this downward trajectory...for their children and people. I have yet to see any president in my lifetime do anything significant for our Native American peoples. A major reason I'm not even contemplating a vote for our fake NA candidate, Elizabeth Warren. 23%...non res/non tribe, but it's in my blood and proud of that.

I've never ever seen a native in person before but I think that they are extremely beautiful people with an incredible cultural history and they definitely need to come off the REZ and experience the rest of the world
