Great piece on the Shoshone and Chief Washakie. My father was a building contractor in Casper, and had hired a Shoshone, Gordon Whitting. Both him and his wife retired south to Arizona in the late 60's. I remember his wife had made my father an Indian beaded belt, before they left for Arizona.

Distance Shooter our history books need to tell the real story. White people like me need to be told from the time they are young, in the history books and their parents, that their ancestors were no better than those in some of the countries we look down on. I carry their shame, even tho most do not. My father taught me. To come in the name of GOD is disgraceful, just like the Spanish Inquisition.

You can see the great wisdom, goodness and rye humor in his wonderful face. What an incredible leader, and honorable man he was. I wish I could have known him. Thank you Wyoming PBS for making this documentary about Washakie a true hero to his people. A man all humanity can look up to as the very type of leadership missing in our present day political parties of inept, greedy, corrupt, weak and compromised criminals in power in our States, Washington, media, Wall Street and mega-corporations. None of these pathetic fools could stand-up next to this great man.

So it is a thing of the Washitsu, the white man, to look back in history...The natives do not do that..they live in the present, looking forward to the near future, but their past is their past..which has nothing to do with nowadays...So no one can say, what would happen if...that is never the way natives think, because thats a waste of thoughts... That is what my native friends told me,cuz I am very interested in their past...they think back as long as to the stories their elders alive tell them...the rest of their history is a mix of myths, fairy tales and history told from generation to generation...

If they had LISTENED to the 1st Nations people, already on this continent, we'd be living a totally different way of life.....One where we respect Mother Earth and each other. One where we could roam freely and not have barriers to this beautiful land and all this crime. What George Washington and men like him did is shameful, yet, he's our nation's greatest hero? Really? He and his kind broke their written word 8 times! 8 treaties were broken. Look it up! Greed and the ability to run over a peaceful people is sickening to me and I'm only part Cherokee! My entire family, except one, was wiped out due to George Washington and his ARMY! I say its time for a NATIVE AMERICAN to be PRESIDENT and totally change our way of life! Crime is killing us all!!! Hatred and jealousy rule every man and woman. I live in Mississippi- about a quarter-mile from the Choctaw Reservation. It hurts my soul to drive thru the reservation and see the trash piled up around each house and down the sides of the roads.....It's as if their souls have gone. They care the least for Mother Earth if all the trash is a sign. All the Choctaw people care about is their two Casinos now. When I was a kid, I learned how to make jewelry, make arrows, ride a horse and hear the stories around the campfire while they danced. My son is 18 and has never seen a dance or heard a story except for the ones his great-grandmother has told him. The women of my family taught him how to find medicine and food from the land. Life has left the reservation and now they just trudge on as if asleep. You never hear of someone offering to pass on knowledge like when I was a kid. You hear a black man say his people were/are treated bad......BUT, they don't live on reservations with barely anything left to them but, the basics! Where I'm from, 1st Nations people are considered drunks and non-educated even by those same black people!!!! My son's grandfather is from North Dakota and yet, has NEVER offered to take my son to meet his people. For that matter, he's never taken my husband- his own son!! We, as a people, are dying in our souls. We are no longer connected to the Earth and hear her sing. Do you have a spirit animal? A name? Do you know your own history and have you heard the stories of your tribe? Or do you think the old ones are crazy or just telling made up "stories?" (Lies) We, even if we are only half or part or whatever.....are losing what is left of our connection to our tribe and this Earth. We're losing the knowledge that has been verbally passed down since the beginning of time! Have you EVER heard the stories of your people? Been to a pow-wow just to listen to the old ones? If you haven't then, George Washington has won! He wanted us gone and our way of life destroyed! He put us in the worst places he could find and called them Reservations!!! Reserves- like we were some kind of wild game to be corralled into a corner. Look this up- Washington was losing against the 1st Nations tribes because they had united as one tribe!! The government needed a sure-fire way to control the Natives. Their solution?? The Buffalo was killed, to extinction, so our ancestors couldn't feed and clothe themselves! After a few months of freezing and starving.....It was no trouble to round them all into reservations when the government promised food, shelter, and clothing to all the chiefs. Our people were starving and freezing to death without their main source- Buffalo. We used the hides for Tee-Pees, the fat for cooking and many other things. We used its hides for clothing- made yarn from its fur. So, taking away this one animal was the way they took the "savages" down. They said, "No food if you fight back." Then, they introduced alcohol. If you're drunk you don't care. That's still working on the Choctaw people today!!!! Most of them are alcoholics because their genetics can't handle the stuff. It isn't natural! We've all fallen into the biggest deception ever planned. Even white and black people are being deceived now. Our government has complete control over all of us.....If we fought back they'd just stop the food and we can no longer farm! None of us can take care of ourselves anymore......we're all reliant on the government for food, clothing, and shelter. Can you make your own clothes? Build a shelter? Grow a garden or forage for plants that grow in the wild? We're all in this mess together! Don't think you're separate or not affected due to your race......Why? Imagine if all the foreign countries banned together and cut off our food supply! The USA gets 90% of its fruit and vegetables from outside the USA. Let that sink in......Scary isn't it? Today? We are all so lazy and spoiled. Without a cellphone for 2 minutes and we're complaining to the world on Facebook!!! This is George Washington's reality.......sucks doesn't it? LOL

Tomahawk is the language of 🇰🇷Korea. It was an ax used by the Indians, and was erroneously recorded at the time. In fact, the word tomahawk is TO MAK (cut = cut), which means to cut wood in Korean. This is mislabeled as a tomahawk. Dictionary records that the origin of the tomahawk is derived from the North American Indian Algonquin word otomahuk. In fact, "otomahuk" is 🇰🇷 in Korean, meaning a log house made of wood. This is what Koreans call “Oh Domak”.

It will never happen. From the beginning of time to the end, man will always be the same and God sees it all................how disappointed he must be.

They are my people love to the Chief.

[@theideabank8797]

He's informing that he's wise which makes our family cry

[@cheech8966]

When people talk about great chiefs on the internet like KZbin, Chief Washakie's name should always be mentioned, he fought the Sioux, Cheyenne, Arapahoe, Blackfeet, Crow and would defeat these tribes from what I read. Washakies and his Eastern Shoshoni defeated the Sioux, Cheyenne and Arapaho in the battle of trout creek and then chased them out of the wind river after killing several of the enemies.

I AM AN INDIAN FROM INDIA THAT IS BHARAT. THE SAD HISTORY OF THE NORTH AMERICAN INDIAN , STARTED WHEN THAT WHITE EUROPEAN ( CHRISTOFER COLUMBUS ) CAME TO THAT COUNTRY. THE WHITE MEN WHEREVER, HAVE THE TONGUE OF A SNAKE ,& IT IS AN INSULT TO THE SNAKE TO BE COMPARED TO A WHITE MAN. THESE WHITES ALSO CAME TO OUR COUNTRY INDIA , THEY RULED FOR ABOUT 200 OR SO YEARS, THEY PLUNDERED OUR WEALTH , BUT THEY COULD FINISH US .THIS YEAR 2018 INDIAN BUSINESS AND ECONOMY IS ON SOUND FOOTING .WE WILL CROSS THE AMERICAN ECONOMY BY 2050. THE PETROYUAN WILL MAKE THE AMERICAN DOLOR VALULESS BECAUSE THE AMERICAN ECONOMY IS RUNNING ON DEBT. AND THE DEBT BUBBLE WILL BUST ANY TIME SOON. AND AS CHIEF SEATTLE SAID THE LAND THE WATER THE TREES THE HILLS AND VALLY IS A GIFT FROM GOD , NOT TO BE PLUNDERED BUT TO BE CHERISHED WITH HUMILITY. MY HEART GOES OUT MY SOUL BROTHERS THE AMERICAN NATIVES WE ARE WITH YOU FOREVER.

I am a very small part of Canadian Indian myself. Trying to find out my ancestry I'm the last living and son in our family we have no kids. It's great to be able to say that openly 😃

[@karencardona8581]

Everything is one and one is everything we all connected . Lessons for white man.

[@asamiyashin444]

Everything It's connected, but we are not "one". No native tribe has said or thought that. That is new age bullshit.

The flute music is nice but, it's too loud. I can't hear the speakers and that means I have to turn it up and that means TOO LOUD on the flute part. The Brits do the same thing with their docu's. It's aggravating.
