    I loveeeee the concho and scarf! I recently bought a scarf that I love and wanted to incorporate it on my upper body until I have time to do beadwork. I may take the idea of wrapping it around my neck and fastening it with a concho! 🙏🏽

Im working on a research for school about native communities, and my plan is to use this type of structure and organization that you guys have in the states and use it as an example for communities from here, I do live in Peru, and I've noticed that you guys are way more advanced on organization as a community. I would like to know If you could help me out with some ifnormation about it! Thank youu!!

    Please do not call our regalia an outfit, this is so disrespectful. I hear the white people or other ignorant people call our regalia as outfit or costumes. Please educate those who do not understand that the regalia's is worn in pride, our spiritual visions and our colours. As a dancer you should know better.

    Phew! That weather. I thought it was just us in the UK that had days like that! Excellent video, it really gives you an idea about the work and preparation that goes into staging the Powwow. One question, are the use of vivid colours a modern thing (particularly the neon yellows and oranges) or have regalia always been these colourful? Thanks.

    • @tashenamason
      @tashenamason Рік тому

      It's a modern trend. Historically, we used nature to give us pigments and colors, so they were by and far on the side of muted, deep earth tones. Leather could be given many colors in the tanning stage, but they were still muted earth tones as well. As trade with colonizers grew, so did our fabrics, beads and colors.

    I was adopted found out both my parents were Native American my fathers Anishinaabe Odawa Ojibwe and my mother we believe to be Hopi or Navajo her great grandmother was Native Indigenous from Jaliso Mexico Unfortunately because I'm 17.5% Indigenous but on 23%Me its 3rd highest % I feel like I finally have an answer. Unfortunately when I went to 2 Powwows because I was of 'Lower Quantum Dirty Blood' I was made fun of, called names and it was a bad experience despite the Sounds at the Powwows and I could feel it coursing in my veins and I felt closer to my Ancestors. Unfortunately because I'm of mixed blood I feel like an outsider, despite trying to learn and wanting to participate and do activities related to my Indigenous Ancestry. I found out I have half sisters who like me have no place to belong in terms of culture identity. Because we are 'mixed Indigenous with other' many like me hope to learn the languages of my ancestors and hope to keep the culture and traditions alive. Even if the community shuns us for be a small %.

    • @RavenFeathers90
      @RavenFeathers90 Рік тому

      My mom is 25% and my grandfather is an even higher quantum. I'm basically white and it's given me lots of insecurities about it. I grew up away from the reservation, but my grandfather grew up on it. My grandfather is way darker and experienced racism. But often folks mistook him for Italian. Italians tend to have darker skin tones that other Europeans so it makes sense. Basically, I'm just trying to say that race is a flimsy thing to base identity on. Our ancestors don't give a crap about it. They just want to see their cultural legacy live in through their children. Preserving physical looks and aspects can never be an authentic replacement for embracing the old wisdom and keeping the traditions alive. You can be 100% native, but if the knowledge of your family tree and culture is lost, its still a disappearance of Native American identity. I've started to do research and attempt beadwork in the style of my tribe as a way to heal my insecurities. Just live your truth and if your ancestors are calling you, listen. Natives just want to gatekeep the identity because of people who are "pretendians". But having a genuine connection to the identity even if you're majority another race doesn't make you pretending.

      Gigi, so sorry that you had a negative experience at the powwows. There is nothing wrong with being mixed. My background feels like United Nations.

    • @jonniecummings4209
      @jonniecummings4209 Рік тому

      I've never met a native american making fun of a person dancing by the color of their skin or the native blood percentage. 75 % aren't even native dancing nowadays. I meet a few people from states away in the church groups and they admit the aren't even native just want to do it for fun. I don't know why they want to. But maybe they smile and you take it wrong? Many light skinned people do that. My kids feel like that but my elders smile and stare because they are proud. Not making fun of them.

    I want to do this so badly. My grandma was 3/4ths native and my grandpa was 1/2. The problem is I inherited the pale skin of my mother and where I live, if you don’t have jet black hair and dark skin, the native community doesn’t accept you. We’re not enough. And I look like “just another white girl trying to be native” to them.
