Don't have to buy it. they have more land than anyone else, as families go.

May Mother told me that my great-grandfather was Oglala Sioux! Sadly, I did not live with her and when I visited her she rarely spoke of her heritage from both sides! But I am proud of the Sioux blood that I have! My father married an Ojibwa woman who I loved very much! Unfortunately she passed due to cancer 5 years after they were married! Our Native American people’s are proud and like the tribesmen said “this is our land no matter what and we must protect it!

Why would native Americans fight for the people who exterminated their people? Why would native Americans fight for a country that has relegated them to prison-state reservations and has erased not only their culture, language, history, but also presence and continues to deny that such history existed before "Americans" came into present-day America, a nation that continues to teach american students that US had always been a white nation and that Europeans came into an empty continent and that somehow "Brown" people came into US due to migration from South of the border? The irony of natives fighting for US.

Ho grande ammirazione per gli spartani, per me i più grandi guerrieri del mondo antico. Tuttavia la mentalità spartana, si addice più alle tribù delle pianure (Lakota, Cheyenne etc.) che combattevano spesso solo per la gloria e poi per respingere i bianchi. Gli Apaches erano si terribili, ma furtivi, preferivano essere sempre in una situazione di vantaggio prima di razziare o combattere, erano feroci combattenti e durissimi, ma calcolavano anche i rischi. Le tribù delle pianure erano più avventate, per loro anche solo toccare il nemico, contare coup, era più onorevole che ucciderlo, per un Apache, questo era inconcepibile.

@@jacqueslee2592Buddy; most Afghans probably don't even know what Native Americans are. Taliban oppression of knowledge not withstanding, the country is so underdeveloped, with villages being completely isolated, they don't have much access to knowledge of the outside world. I've seen videos of Afghans who never even heard of 9/11 because the Taliban and local tribal leaders kept that knowledge quiet. I've seen other videos of Afghans that (when they were even willing to talk) didn't know much about other cultures outside of their own. They would have no knowledge of African culture, Asian culture, Western Culture, etc. And when some were told about Native Americans they said 'I didn't know America had an original people; I thought America was a multi race country' or something like that. And for your information, Afghans have been fending off invaders long before the US even existed. Go check up the attempted Soviet occupation of Afghanistan in the 80's. Not only did they kill almost 2 million Afghan civilians, but they are directly responsible for the hellhole Afghanistan became. Because they destroyed the original Afghan government and left the country in a severe power vacuum. Which gave rise to the Taliban becoming a thing. So if you want to be mad at the US for what they did, don't forget that Russia ultimately started this. And even before Russia, going as far back as Alexander the Great, Afghans have been able to withstand multiple invasion attempts.

Beautiful doco. Maori are similar as are many Indigenous people who are colonised. We still fight for our land, our people, our culture, and always will. That is our way back, our way now, and our way forward.

My dad was an MP while in service, he was a marine and made for this, we are choctaw, I agree we are to serve and protect even after coming home, my dad was called on for back up when the police needed help, but he would not hire on with them because he would say " I will be in trouble in 5 minutes and your not going to like it", he was quiet but if provoked became a fighting machine it looked like, he was proud of where he stood in life while he served and after out of the military.

It is unfortunate the government continues to try and strip the Native Americans of their culture, language etc. The Mexicans are going through this, being denied their native heritage by calling them latinos, Hispanics when their not. (Dr. Jack D. Forbes)

I married an Aztec indian, he was strong well built hard working man, he ran away to come work in US at age 13, he never served but if he would have had the chance he would have been great, they get called Mexicans but they are not, the Mexicans are a mix of people from Spain Soo they get called that and THIER skin color is not as dark as the true natives, by now with all this drug cartel movement it looks like many people are coming here to the US, if our country would recognize the indigenous people and train them as warriors it may be a benefit to our country and they could be excused from trespassing as this is one big continent, also including the indigenous people of south america because if we are invaded we are going to need ever hand and foot that will stand up for this continent as a whole, they can be trained and go home proud otherwise they are treated as an enemy and we don't need this, after all we have stood together in battle here from the US with all other races and wonder if the indigenous people can stand up and be counted as a whole army, it would be a benefit because they who are immigrants from native blood of this continent as a whole be allowed recognition of some sort of unity with our country , NOT LOOK AT THEM AS CRIMINALS BUT HELP THEM HELP US, if they will stand up to be trained we shall all be the victors, this should be offer only to them as a recognition of tribal stance, if they will not they can go home, be deported and stand by THIER selves come what may.

I have tears. For the warrior and the history of the Indian. My step dad not sure which tribe he was from. But he was hung in effigy by Dennis Banks and Russell Means. At Bamige? He was superintendent of the Navajo Hopi res and superintendent of the Souix res. A good man. In my apartment Chief Joseph a poster of my HERO. I grew up spending summers on the Colville res hang out in the bush and woking for my uncle who leased a fishing resort from the Colville tribe. I would hangʻ out with the bears at the dump. My friends were mostly indiàn through my life. I still have a very good friend I talk with every couple of months that is indian in Spokane. We hunted together dranka ran around. Good times. I've held the Eagle Feathers that were Geronimo's an other of my friends a keeper of the feathers. I have long red hair and was a dancer. Now at 81 I still dance and i play music. Another hero is Black Elk Medicine Man of the Souix. I was a Marine 0311 Infantry went to Cuba but not Vietnam. Was always point man in our operations. Had Bear dreams a big part of my life. My karate sensai Kenpo is Apache. He had me read two books Look For Me On the Mountain about Geronimo. And Burning Man Swimming. Highly recommend reading. Happy Trails

I loved the way their communities had integrating and purifying ceremonies for those who came back from their traumatic war experiences. I never knew so many Native American people fought in the U.S. Army in so many wars. I knew about Navajo code breakers from KZbin videos but never the whole story so thank you for this documentary.
