She left out the fact that most of those runaway slaves were in fact “Seminole” or Yamasee people that were stolen and enslaved. The Seminole would raid plantations to recover their tribal members. Others were welcomed to join them or leave to the north. She also left out that one of the Seminole wars was started over the honor of a “black woman”, Chief Osceola’s wife that was stolen and sold into slavery. They sent out an army of warriors and declared war to get her back. Yes, one so-called black woman was so valuable that they started a war for her. These people were Seminoles, not “black Seminoles” or “red Seminoles”-they were Seminoles, period. It’s offensive to separate them from their tribal by adding “black” to it. They don’t add things to anyone else but us-as if we are different or less than. When these so-called black people were running this tribe.
They want to show us as slaves who took mistreatment not warriors who fought for our freedom.. these new whypepo are no different from they're ancestors they don't like us like that and are very jealous folks
It's bull sht that's why. In The sixties I lived around native Americans in the south and in Colorado. All I was told by elder native Americans is that blacks were not respected as the native Americans would rather fight to the death or sit and starve to death before they would accept being a slave. A proud and noble people would hunt runaway slaves kill then cut off the ears for a reward for white slave hunters blacks were rarely aloud to be accepted and only blacks that had pride and fought for their freedom. Today black on black slaves rampid in Africa and after the Democrats killed Kadafe Libya is the slave trade market of the world. 3 to 5 thousand dollars for a slave to be shipped to your door
@@ellah2303actually it’s one of the first things out of her mouth, before you hit the 35 second mark 😳 Part of understanding the history is not being blind to why it’s hidden from us
@Derrick Culler Thanks for expound your thoughts.

There are purposes for everything & nothing new under the sun(follow the money backwards) Lastly, it's less about deserving nobility, and more about deserving the REAL Ancestrial truth. -Be peaceful brotha
@@andresgcoderoilpaz2806 liars are the white Hollywood movies ... Google 1800's Indians ... all were Black including Geronimo. Google paintings of the Indians when Europeans invaded our lands. Plundering, raping our women, stealing our land , bounties on our scalps aka genocide... and now $5 Indians claim to be indigenous aboriginals like Jewish European converts claim Palestine ... who if they have the rights to claim land they never owned ... why doesn't the racists in USA supporting Israel doesn't return the so called Indian lands stolen not only in Amerikkka but Africa, Australia, S. Amerikkka, Asia ?
tereseus They will. It's only a matter of time. Part of the problem is the story is so big, spanning so many years and characters and places. It's hard to compress it enough for a Hollywood feature. The second problem is that the sources aren't always clear and often conflict. Any attempt to tell the story as a single narrative will lead to a Game of Thrones type of series, I think, but without the details Game of Thrones provides unless one fictionalizes. And this story is too important to play fast and loose with. If it's done right it should be told as truthfully as it can be. There's enough exciting stuff there to warrant a truthful retelling. Do you know the episode where John Horse stands down a whole war party of charging Indians and turns them with an empty rifle?
@@jamaalstrachan242 yes, I think streaming in a series is probably the best way to go. There's so much to tell, so much to show. John Horse is the centerpiece but there are others over the decades associated with the Seminole story. Maybe multiple series here. Lots to work on. Where are the production companies, eh? My guess is they are waiting for the right package. I saw someone recently made a film about Bass Reeves, the long forgotten black U.S. marshal who became a lawman in Indian Territory (Oklahoma) after the Civil War. Why not John Horse, too?
Its not Hollywoods responsibility to "jump" on it. It's BLACK FOLKS responsibility to "jump" on it and tell their story, because IT'S OUR STORY to tell. Its totally crazy to expect others to "tell" YOUR story. We have the Talent, financing, and we have a handful of studios. No excuses.
Greeting to all who have watched. I am from Nacimento and born here in the US. I am also a Marine veteran. My grandfather was chief of Nacimento not very long after John Horse and Wild Cat reigned. I am visiting my people this summer, and I will let them all know that people are rediscovering us.

Outstanding! And thank you for your service! Back in 2001 I we had to do a research paper on American Wars, for my professional development class. I am a native Floridian, (from Miami), I knew of Chief Osceola, but wow! what more that I learn when I pulled the pin on this grenade!
C'mon now...they fear retribution or just don't value this part of the story, that's why this part of history is rarely mentioned. If anything, they go out of their way to dismiss any black indigenous relations of any kind.
Or Chang history from the truth . Blacks live the lies they have been told. White pilgrim settlers came to the new world in the 1600s without slavers. Slavery was brought here in the 1500 s by brown and black people. White people came here for religious freedom. Spain and other brown people along with black slave traders brought slaved here. Slavery is alive and growing in America Again by democrats blacks brown and Chinese who have slaves in America today.

No mention of this in my high school history books. Actually they covered slavery very briefly and they gave all the credit for "freeing" slaves to Lincoln.
And give credit to the millions of WHITE SOLDIERS WHO FOUGHT FOR YOUR OPPRESSED BLACK ASS. MY GREAT, GREAT, GREAT , GRANDFATHER, AND 2 BROTHERS DIED FIGHTING FOR YOUR FREEDOM 157 YEARS AGO.

@@richbrown9839 :: The only thing "running amuck" is your rantings about a false history AND mostly in "CAPS". Your ancestors didn't fight the Civil-War to free anybody ... if you knew the history you're foaming about ... that War was fought to preserve The Union ! Secondly, your ancestors were not the only ones fighting in that War. The Black Soldiers were actually the ones fighting for their freedom AND long before your ancestors were in the War, there were a number Slave Rebellions ( it's a safe bet, your ancestors weren't participating in those struggles ). If your ancestors were fighting for "Liberation", you seem bitter, instead of proud ; resentful, instead of contented your relatives were on the right side of History. Your under-tone of vitriolic comments about present-day African-Americans would definitely place you in a gray uniform, if you had lived with your ancestors !

Thank you for sharing this! At 47yrs old and a bit of a history buff, I'm ashamed that I'd had no prior knowledge of this compelling American historical tale.
@Derrick Culler What happened to the phrase..."Here's what I think." If you were not there, you probably don't. I probably would know that Seminoles and blacks had offspring, since we have annual reunions 3 times a year.
kenny Boy Because the white settlers were rapacious and mired in a world view that didn't recognize other people as people like themselves. That changed but it took years and a great deal of pain. The Indians got driven out and the blacks, who fought to keep from falling into slavers' hands again, went with them, only to get screwed a second time in Indian Territory. But U.S. Army officers by then felt an obligation to them and worked to protect them from the predations of Arkansas, Cherokee and Creek slavers. The Creek were the source of the Seminole bands but, unlike the Seminole who lived a more wild life in Florida, the Creek were more acculturated to white ways and adopted the practices and institutions of the whites, including plantation slavery. Thus, in Indian Territory, the old Seminole-African alliance was faced with new challenges which ripped their one time alliance apart.
I am a Black Seminole and I recently discovered there are Hispanics in my family. The Seminoles in my family are from Florida. I wondered how the Hispanics got in. Also interesting that I have a B.A. in Spanish. This is a great story. It ties my family history together. I am going to read more on this.
Hispanics a Euro-Creation! Natives of These Lands Now Called The Americas Had Their Culture and Language Erased By Europeans Through Rape and Genocide! Spanish and The Evil of Catholicism Was Forced Upon The Remaining Natives Who Were Not Victims of European Genocide! The Erasure of Non-Europeans Continue In The Americas!
I know I'm years late, and there's a complex web of layers regarding the Spanish to peel here, but most likely they were either: 1) black or indigenous folk who lived in what was then Spanish or Latin American territory and took Spanish names 2) mixed with Spanish, Latin American or the above people The Spanish were and are a walking contradiction of colonizers, something observers and historians have a hard time comprehending in trying to grasp the nuances of the cultures they created. Blackness and Africanness are an integral but hidden part of that identity, and a lot of people on both sides of the equation have a lot more connection with each other than they realize or want to admit
@@kongming66he only ppl who have a problem with the idea are so-called Hispanics. Technically, both Hispanic and Latin are dubious terms to describe people. Hispanic actually applies only to the people of Hispaniola. There is no mystery about the Spaniards’ race problem. The Western concept of race comes from the Spaniards, who created the Casta system. Post “Dark Ages,” after 700 years of Moorish rule, Spain was a nation of mulattoes with some remaining groups of Caucasians who did not integrate with Moors, mostly religious groups-like Ladinos (Iberian Jews)-and previous monarchs, the ones who colluded to oust the Moors. In order to diminish Moors’ previous ruler status, they publicly denounced “morros” (Moors/Mauros) and exalted the Ladinos and monarchs. Throughout Latin America, you will find the Ladino silent hand, ruling nations’ economies and policies. A mestizo face is put forward to create an image of desirable and proximal “whiteness.” The Indios were only exalted if they intermixed with Spaniards or mulatto Spaniards. The Indios who remained with their own people were placed at the very bottom of the caste, below Africans; Latin America still maintains this caste, which is problematic for white Westerners, whose own caste systems placed Asiatic “Native Americans” above Black Indigenous and African people. (The very abridged version.)
Be warry of the "Black" label assigned by the enemy of our people who came from Europe who murdered our people and stole our lands! If you are truly of our native people you must lead and not follow the "Lost" souls who foolishly adopted the black label from their evil masters! There is no land called "Black"...There is no land called "white" These are creations of the true black people who originated from Europe!
I was born in Southwest Georgia. My family has a strong Creek and Cherokee Indian heritage. My grandmother would tell us how the Seminole tribes protected our ancestors during slavery times. Some of my ancestors ,cousins ended up down in the Everglades as the Micasookee tribe. I don't remember how, but the Micasookee and the Seminole tribes are intertwined somehow. Remember: This was passed on to me by my Grandparents, I can't verify it or not. But I do know that we have a strong resemblance to Native Americans, and I feel proud and humbled when I visit the Micasookee Reservation on the I-75 Alligator Alley.
Contrary to popular belief the 5 major civilized tribes owned Africa slaves. They also was used to capture runaways. The Creek & Seminole was an exception bit not entirely.
Wow, another reason to emphasize why we need to teach our own history, and not settle for a sanitized retelling of it. My grandfather introduced me to oral history in the late 70's. I introduced it to my children in 2000 and beyond. The oral family and overall history pointed them to books they will not hear about in public schools. Beautiful documentary, peace.
John Horse was not Bahamian and he was not an Indian . He was the mixed child of a Spaniard mixed Indian father and his African descendants slave Charles Caballo was his father, John Caballo is his name. Caballo is translated to Horse. He was living in a maroon community on Seminole territory. He made deals with the Seminole to keep his family from continuing to be slaves to Seminole.
Rastafari Mulah First, get your facts straight before commenting. Secondly, Maroons have never been exclusive to Jamaican Maroon, perhaps the most known maroons but not the only ones. Maroon literally means African/Black people who created settlements away from Chattel Slavery; Maroons existed throughout the Americas. Secondly, John Horse wasn’t Bahamian because he was an African American (mixed), however, I do understand where the confusion comes from- Black Seminoles migrated to the Bahamas at one point, as they migrated to other parts of the America/Western world, as well. Like Mexico, Cuba, Oklahoma, etc.
Henry Hawkins wow but you got to remember that the Seminole’s Chief was name Bowlegs but sure anything helps. Black Seminoles also made it to the Bahamas from Florida.
This is information that should be in every school across the country. I am 30 years old and barely figuring this information out. This needs to be taught to our children of color so they know that slavery did not go on without a fight. When I was in school I always asked myself why didn't anyone ever fight back? It is important to know that yes, we did fight back.

No it should not as this video is telling half truths. What she failed to mention was that the Seminole Indians were our people and she uses the discrimination of Black to separate us for the thousands of or so called Black Indian tribes that existed. We were already here and did not come by slave ships as was told. This is what they are hiding from us. They know who we are
I read about this story in the book "Black Indians" my Great Great Grandfather was Black and my Great Great Grandmother was Native Choctaw from OKLAHOMA.
It isn’t talked, written about, or even put on the big screen for one reason….John Horse kicked Americas butt for 40 years without defeat. He was never captured, so we can’t let black people know that.
My grandfather is Khoisan. My grandmother is Sierra Leonean. They were in South Carolina wayyyy before Slavery. What I don't like is they forget about the story of them stealing diamonds from us 🤔 My ancestors traded diamonds with the Seminoles way before Europeans came here and enslaved. From Sierra Leone to Charleston, Hilton Head etc. all the way down to the Everglades. So when you speak on *John Horse* dont forget to tell that he's Gullah and the blood diamonds they stole from us right here in America. Also how we made it all the way to Mexico. Unconquered. We have family there." ✌🏾❤
That's GREAT for your Ancestors! But MY PEOPLE are NOT Black Native Americans. WE ARE THE ISRAELITES of the Holy Bible who came here as Slaves.. Not a mixed people who claim this is their land.
Actually Seminole was never a tribe it meant runaways because the enslaved ppls and native tribes fleeing rival tribes as well as whites. It was called the GULLah wars they changed it so whites wouldn't look stupid. This lasted 100 years.
heyim8 lets go create something no Gullahs had their own beliefs not no damn yah or yeshua none of that European bs forced on them to control them and enslave them they had their own beliefs thousands of years older than that nonsense try again!
WOW! Amazing. I am a Social Studies teacher at a private Christian school and believe me when I tell you. My students last year learned about this and my students this year will lean about this. Oh I'm sticking to the curriculum, and Common Core.I just taking it to a whole new level because this is NOT TAUGHT!
The Seminoles also took in Creeks and Cherokees fleeing removal, Irish Indentured Servants, and settlers who were poor. It was a mix of the nation truly.
So glad you mentioned that my mom's family is of Geechee, Creek & Irish Seminoles. When I told people the culture and story they were always perplexed about this part of US history.
She left out the part regarding "The Gullah War" which occurred from 1729 to 1863, and, truth be told, was one of the main reasons Lincoln signed The 13th Amendment, The Seminoles played a role in that war as well.
It was the main reason! Lincoln didn’t want European immigrants in fear of migrating over here due to the so called black natives putting in work on whole families. Men women and children were getting cut short. So Lincoln HAD to abolish slavery. You probably know all this tho I’m just ranting 😂 🙏🏿✊🏿
Thanks for posting this video. While I've heard of Black Seminoles before, I never knew that a community of them escaped to Mexico and lived there in freedom. Very interesting story.
Yes it's hard to imagine why hollywierd hasn't made a movie of this chapter in amerikkkan history but then again if they can't whitewash it why would they?
Actually there is a movie with Sydney Poitiers and an Indian guy who demonstrated a fight till death between the Indian and black guy against the whites. Of course they were only two they died, but they died as heroes.
One reason Hollywood has not been producing much if any movies about actual factual history, would expose and debunk what we've been taught in our current educational system . . and yes, I do mean system.
‘The State of Jones’ by Sally Jones and John Stauffer, documents a rebellion of Confederate Army deserters who joined a state in the Everglades populated by runaway slaves and Seminoles. They were first to use sawed off shotguns filled with nails and metal pieces to defend themselves. ‘The State of Jones’ is a unique history book published in 2009.
Yes, they were probably more willing to tell THAT story because it had a White hero. Remember, they were CONFEDERATE soldiers & their main objective was not the end of enslavement for their fellow man. Though it became a byproduct of their cause.
I’m an American and I would want this story told about American Indians, Blacks and Whites. We already know about Spain’s Florida, Joe Turner’s Slave Revolt, “The Trail of Tears” - give us the whole story.
Wow, my wife's people (on her father's side) is a decedent of the Black Seminoles. After the Civil war some of them moved back into Texas and settled in a town called Brackettville. My wife's grandparents (and some of their sister's & brothers) eventually relocated to the Silicon Valley/Bay area of California.
You ask why they don't talk about Native Americans, Slaves, and Mexicans LIVING, FIGHTING, WORKING AND PROSPERING TOGETHER? You know why. But you are correct, it's a beautiful story that should be told.
micahyah: Have you noticed lately that everything is revealing and we are becoming more AWOKE and feeling stronger. More to come in 2020. Stay woke and get your passport.
Wow that is amazing. I never heard of this story until now. This story really should be told. We just had 12 years a slave (even though it was an independent film). I hope that this story will be told on the big screen. Since I am black, I can only speculate that it may be hard for other Americans to have movies about a national disgrace. (Much like I have heard that Germans have a hard time watching Captain America movies because they don't like to see a bad moment in their history be retold.) Well hopefully we can move forward together and make a nation worth of its founding statement "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights". I still think that one sentence gives America some sense of direction although it surely has fallen short of its goal.

blacks had land in mexico long before 2015, my great grandmother owned a ranch down there in naciemiento, unfortunately it burned down so there’s nothing left but rubble.
I am such a history fan, and yet I don't believe I've heard of this. If I had, it wasn't discussed enough for it to stick. Thank you for keeping us educated!
Also I must add that the “Black Seminoles/Afro Seminoles” are of the Gullah Geechee. The Gullah Geechee’s are the sea island Creoles along the coastal islands and mainlands of Georgia, South Carolina, and Florida.
@Derrick Culler The Great Migration is when Blacks moved from the south to the north in pursuit of better work and escape the racist south after slavery. We know that all Black are Descendants of Africans; and the Gullahs are definitely descendants of many West African cultures and peoples. I know this because I am Gullah Geechee. Our culture is majority African & Native American. We are a Creolized people and culture with heavy ties to the Caribbean as well.
Proud of the ancestors for standing their ground and fighting. They could've marched around holding up signs in protest, song songs while chanting, attended long drawn out speeches heard time and time again or even killed each other cause they lived in neighborhoods with people having the same skin color but they didn't. They stood together in solidarity and fought for what was rightfully theirs.
It would be impossible for her to wrap up the entire historical legacy of such a beautiful and courageous tribe. I applaud both hers & your contributions. Thank you sincerely.

So yes their were African people on this continent before everyone else just like they were in China (xia & tang dynasty) as well as India (Dravidian or Harrapian/ Indus dynasty). Do you see them as Africans people today?! I pretty sure you do not. If we were these original people as you believe we would have a significant amount of Asian blood in us as most original Natives do (WELL HOW CAN THIS BE?!) Well I'll tell you young grasshopper. I m sure you've heard of Genghis Khan! Well he made his way to the western part of this Northern Continent that we now call America and conqueror it and all of South America.

reason why they cant do movie is becuz black seminoles means they were the indians.. then them settling in mexico means blacks were there too.. they'll have to literally rewrite history. Then release film. It'll be the most watched movie ever. Sorry im 11 years late lmao

Wait a minute I thought Henry Louis Gates proved through DNA that we are not Part Native American? LOL I knew that story had a taint, My family on my fathers side are no doubt African Seminole I do not even need a DNA test to prove it.

The Whites don’t want to express any other peoples especially Blacks and Indians any kind of credit for valor. I would be considered a Creole or Black India. I am proud of any such history. Thank you for this historical story.
These were all the same people. They were not slaves , they were prisoners of war. Black is not a nationality and neither is Indian, look it up. Slave means Slavic, look it up. She is telling only part of the truth, but she is giving you something.
She left out the fact that most of those runaway slaves were in fact “Seminole” or Yamasee people that were stolen and enslaved. The Seminole would raid plantations to recover their tribal members. Others were welcomed to join them or leave to the north. She also left out that one of the Seminole wars was started over the honor of a “black woman”, Chief Osceola’s wife that was stolen and sold into slavery. They sent out an army of warriors and declared war to get her back. Yes, one so-called black woman was so valuable that they started a war for her. These people were Seminoles, not “black Seminoles” or “red Seminoles”-they were Seminoles, period. It’s offensive to separate them from their tribal by adding “black” to it. They don’t add things to anyone else but us-as if we are different or less than. When these so-called black people were running this tribe.
Yamasee history will always be obscured by White America. The historicity of black existence in the Americas had to be hidden for colonial security.
so called blacks, latinos, and natives make up the 12 tribes of Israel, we're all family.

It's bull sht that's why. In The sixties I lived around native Americans in the south and in Colorado. All I was told by elder native Americans is that blacks were not respected as the native Americans would rather fight to the death or sit and starve to death before they would accept being a slave. A proud and noble people would hunt runaway slaves kill then cut off the ears for a reward for white slave hunters blacks were rarely aloud to be accepted and only blacks that had pride and fought for their freedom.

hollywood wont jump on this because it has black heroes.....
tereseus They will. It's only a matter of time. Part of the problem is the story is so big, spanning so many years and characters and places. It's hard to compress it enough for a Hollywood feature. The second problem is that the sources aren't always clear and often conflict. Any attempt to tell the story as a single narrative will lead to a Game of Thrones type of series, I think, but without the details Game of Thrones provides unless one fictionalizes. And this story is too important to play fast and loose with. If it's done right it should be told as truthfully as it can be. There's enough exciting stuff there to warrant a truthful retelling. Do you know the episode where John Horse stands down a whole war party of charging Indians and turns them with an empty rifle?
Stuart Mirsky yep I read about that. legendary leadership
@@StuartMirsky it should be a story like the Roots but put this on a streaming on Netflix
@@jamaalstrachan242 yes, I think streaming in a series is probably the best way to go. There's so much to tell, so much to show. John Horse is the centerpiece but there are others over the decades associated with the Seminole story.
Maybe multiple series here. Lots to work on. Where are the production companies, eh? My guess is they are waiting for the right package. I saw someone recently made a film about Bass Reeves, the long forgotten black U.S. marshal who became a lawman in Indian Territory (Oklahoma) after the Civil War. Why not John Horse, too?
Its not Hollywoods responsibility to "jump" on it. It's BLACK FOLKS responsibility to "jump" on it and tell their story, because IT'S OUR STORY to tell. Its totally crazy to expect others to "tell" YOUR story. We have the Talent, financing, and we have a handful of studios. No excuses.

Kris McCoy i dooooo!!
All we ever wanted was freedom !! why was that soo hard ??
kenny Boy Because the white settlers were rapacious and mired in a world view that didn't recognize other people as people like themselves. That changed but it took years and a great deal of pain. The Indians got driven out and the blacks, who fought to keep from falling into slavers' hands again, went with them, only to get screwed a second time in Indian Territory. But U.S. Army officers by then felt an obligation to them and worked to protect them from the predations of Arkansas, Cherokee and Creek slavers. The Creek were the source of the Seminole bands but, unlike the Seminole who lived a more wild life in Florida, the Creek were more acculturated to white ways and adopted the practices and institutions of the whites, including plantation slavery. Thus, in Indian Territory, the old Seminole-African alliance was faced with new challenges which ripped their one time alliance apart.

I am a Black Seminole and I recently discovered there are Hispanics in my family. The Seminoles in my family are from Florida. I wondered how the Hispanics got in. Also interesting that I have a B.A. in Spanish. This is a great story. It ties my family history together. I am going to read more on this.
Some fleed to Mexico others Cuba
Hispanics a Euro-Creation! Natives of These Lands Now Called The Americas Had Their Culture and Language Erased By Europeans Through Rape and Genocide! Spanish and The Evil of Catholicism Was Forced Upon The Remaining Natives Who Were Not Victims of European Genocide! The Erasure of Non-Europeans Continue In The Americas!
I know I'm years late, and there's a complex web of layers regarding the Spanish to peel here, but most likely they were either:
1) black or indigenous folk who lived in what was then Spanish or Latin American territory and took Spanish names
2) mixed with Spanish, Latin American or the above people
The Spanish were and are a walking contradiction of colonizers, something observers and historians have a hard time comprehending in trying to grasp the nuances of the cultures they created. Blackness and Africanness are an integral but hidden part of that identity, and a lot of people on both sides of the equation have a lot more connection with each other than they realize or want to admit
@@kongming66he only ppl who have a problem with the idea are so-called Hispanics. Technically, both Hispanic and Latin are dubious terms to describe people. Hispanic actually applies only to the people of Hispaniola.
There is no mystery about the Spaniards’ race problem. The Western concept of race comes from the Spaniards, who created the Casta system. Post “Dark Ages,” after 700 years of Moorish rule, Spain was a nation of mulattoes with some remaining groups of Caucasians who did not integrate with Moors, mostly religious groups-like Ladinos (Iberian Jews)-and previous monarchs, the ones who colluded to oust the Moors. In order to diminish Moors’ previous ruler status, they publicly denounced “morros” (Moors/Mauros) and exalted the Ladinos and monarchs. Throughout Latin America, you will find the Ladino silent hand, ruling nations’ economies and policies. A mestizo face is put forward to create an image of desirable and proximal “whiteness.” The Indios were only exalted if they intermixed with Spaniards or mulatto Spaniards. The Indios who remained with their own people were placed at the very bottom of the caste, below Africans; Latin America still maintains this caste, which is problematic for white Westerners, whose own caste systems placed Asiatic “Native Americans” above Black Indigenous and African people. (The very abridged version.)
Hispanics? 🧐
I am a proud black Seminole man and every day I’m learning more about my history through the internet

That's GREAT for your Ancestors! But MY PEOPLE are NOT Black Native Americans. WE ARE THE ISRAELITES of the Holy Bible. Not a mixed people
I was born in Southwest Georgia. My family has a strong Creek and Cherokee Indian heritage. My grandmother would tell us how the Seminole tribes protected our ancestors during slavery times. Some of my ancestors ,cousins ended up down in the Everglades as the Micasookee tribe. I don't remember how, but the Micasookee and the Seminole tribes are intertwined somehow. Remember: This was passed on to me by my Grandparents, I can't verify it or not. But I do know that we have a strong resemblance to Native Americans, and I feel proud and humbled when I visit the Micasookee Reservation on the I-75 Alligator Alley.
Contrary to popular belief the 5 major civilized tribes owned Africa slaves. They also was used to capture runaways. The Creek & Seminole was an exception bit not entirely.
That's GREAT for your Ancestors! But MY PEOPLE are NOT Black Native Americans. WE ARE THE ISRAELITES of the Holy Bible. Not a mixed people
Wow, another reason to emphasize why we need to teach our own history, and not settle for a sanitized retelling of it. My grandfather introduced me to oral history in the late 70's. I introduced it to my children in 2000 and beyond. The oral family and overall history pointed them to books they will not hear about in public schools. Beautiful documentary, peace.
Black Seminole is redundant. Seminole means Maroon or Run away. Much like General Jessup said the Seminole war was a "Negro war."
Maroon come from the West indies Jamaica to be exact geechee come from John horse who was Bahamian.
John Horse was not Bahamian and he was not an Indian . He was the mixed child of a Spaniard mixed Indian father and his African descendants slave Charles Caballo was his father, John Caballo is his name. Caballo is translated to Horse. He was living in a maroon community on Seminole territory. He made deals with the Seminole to keep his family from continuing to be slaves to Seminole.
Redundant means when you repeat...run away is not black so therefore it's not redundant
Rastafari Mulah First, get your facts straight before commenting. Secondly, Maroons have never been exclusive to Jamaican Maroon, perhaps the most known maroons but not the only ones. Maroon literally means African/Black people who created settlements away from Chattel Slavery; Maroons existed throughout the Americas. Secondly, John Horse wasn’t Bahamian because he was an African American (mixed), however, I do understand where the confusion comes from- Black Seminoles migrated to the Bahamas at one point, as they migrated to other parts of the America/Western world, as well. Like Mexico, Cuba, Oklahoma, etc.

She left out the part regarding "The Gullah War" which occurred from 1729 to 1863, and, truth be told, was one of the main reasons Lincoln signed The 13th Amendment, The Seminoles played a role in that war as well.
It was the main reason! Lincoln didn’t want European immigrants in fear of migrating over here due to the so called black natives putting in work on whole families. Men women and children were getting cut short. So Lincoln HAD to abolish slavery. You probably know all this tho I’m just ranting 😂 🙏🏿✊🏿

‘The State of Jones’ by Sally Jones and John Stauffer, documents a rebellion of Confederate Army deserters who joined a state in the Everglades populated by runaway slaves and Seminoles. They were first to use sawed off shotguns filled with nails and metal pieces to defend themselves. ‘The State of Jones’ is a unique history book published in 2009.
Yes, they were probably more willing to tell THAT story because it had a White hero. Remember, they were CONFEDERATE soldiers & their main objective was not the end of enslavement for their fellow man. Though it became a byproduct of their cause.

@Dominque-se5dx Seminole Indians are native American Indians who helped run away slaves and hid them
You ask why they don't talk about Native Americans, Slaves, and Mexicans LIVING, FIGHTING, WORKING AND PROSPERING TOGETHER? You know why. But you are correct, it's a beautiful story that should be told.

micahyah: Have you noticed lately that everything is revealing and we are becoming more AWOKE and feeling stronger. More to come in 2020. Stay woke and get your passport.
@@blackintellect777 I have noticed My friend. No Fear.
I got 2 words for the creator's of this ... much needed eye opener. ..
THANK YOU...
Wow that is amazing. I never heard of this story until now. This story really should be told. We just had 12 years a slave (even though it was an independent film). I hope that this story will be told on the big screen. Since I am black, I can only speculate that it may be hard for other Americans to have movies about a national disgrace. (Much like I have heard that Germans have a hard time watching Captain America movies because they don't like to see a bad moment in their history be retold.) Well hopefully we can move forward together and make a nation worth of its founding statement "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights". I still think that one sentence gives America some sense of direction although it surely has fallen short of its goal.
No your not White nor are you black ,

One of my great grandfather was a black Mexican. The Mexican governments did not recognize them until 2015.
blacks had land in mexico long before 2015, my great grandmother owned a ranch down there in naciemiento, unfortunately it burned down so there’s nothing left but rubble.
You can't even tell the truth without deception.

Oops! forgot, for those of you are indeed interested in staying in the know, you might like to look into Yamassee, Jamassi Nation.
I am such a history fan, and yet I don't believe I've heard of this. If I had, it wasn't discussed enough for it to stick. Thank you for keeping us educated!
Also I must add that the “Black Seminoles/Afro Seminoles” are of the Gullah Geechee. The Gullah Geechee’s are the sea island Creoles along the coastal islands and mainlands of Georgia, South Carolina, and Florida.
I like "Afro Seminoles" John Horse Was One Of Them Too???
Kwanz X yes sir. Many Afro Americans are descendants of the Gullah Geechee but don’t know because of the great migration.
He Go africans aint got nun to do with this lmao
@Adolph Bidenkopt DNA test are fake
@Derrick Culler The Great Migration is when Blacks moved from the south to the north in pursuit of better work and escape the racist south after slavery. We know that all Black are Descendants of Africans; and the Gullahs are definitely descendants of many West African cultures and peoples. I know this because I am Gullah Geechee. Our culture is majority African & Native American. We are a Creolized people and culture with heavy ties to the Caribbean as well.
Proud of the ancestors for standing their ground and fighting. They could've marched around holding up signs in protest, song songs while chanting, attended long drawn out speeches heard time and time again or even killed each other cause they lived in neighborhoods with people having the same skin color but they didn't. They stood together in solidarity and fought for what was rightfully theirs.
It would be impossible for her to wrap up the entire historical legacy of such a beautiful and courageous tribe. I applaud both hers & your contributions. Thank you sincerely.
Such a wonderful documentary! I loved this, very important to learn. :)
1:39 correction: Muskogee creek natives
1:53 correction: Gullah Geechee runaway prisoners of war= Seminoles(wild runaways)
What would you expect...
Hollywood hasn’t made a movie on this for the same reason they put white actors playing black Egyptians
Thanks for taking the time to write about this.
This information is also addressed in the 1619 project, chapter 5. It is so nice to see the truth finally being told.
They we're not run away slaves. They we're called geechee
This story was very well told. Thank you.
HERE AFTER LIL YACHTY ALBUM
Where is Tyler Perry , Oprah and Spike Lee. Can’t understand why they are remaking Color Purple when something like this is what is needed. No more Maddea movies until this is made into a movie.
Look at how the government is treating the Black Seminole today, even the light skinned chief is selling them out🤦🏽♂️
It’s crazy how I’m over thirty and just learning about this when we were taught about Andrew Jackson it was all heroism lol
Back when Blacks and Mexicans were Brothers.
That still happens today in Brackettville and Del Rio TX and in Odessa Tx. . You talk about good food when you mix Mexican and Soul Food!
delp emdog You feet kissing so hard right now calm down
That is the story of my family..My grandmother talked about John Horse and another relative named Adam.
+noddybadfaith How did Prof. Sturgis do in presenting your family's story?
+Learn Liberty
You did well,clarified quite a few things. I must say it was really odd to hear someone talking about family in relation to American history.
same here
+ObamaLoaf record your family history from those who were there,
Beautiful. My family are OK Seminole.
Black historians should be documenting these events in our history. Not discrediting what this narrator did, but it is shameful for your history to have to be told by others.
She knows why this isn't taught.
Anyone here from the Yachty album?
There needs to be serious text book reform...the truth needs to be told.
Been saying that since I was in school
Seminoles where and are one of the original native blacks to this land. John horse and his ancestors were some of the aboriginal peoples of the Americas..
Please stop with the madness!! If blacks in this country truly believe we are the original descendants of this land. Please!!! Put your DNA results online proving that point! I have done a DNA test. It shows that I am 82% African! It also shows less than 1% native blood. What does your DNA results show?
@@kkrobertson1 DNA Test are not even accurate! *History and historical facts is more accurate* than a DNA test!.
@@anonymousperson531 REALLY!!! The last time I checked DNA is 99.9% accurate! What planet are you living on. If it was not 99.9% accurate do you really thank they would have exonerated all these Blacks folks falsely accused of a crime. Brother I think not! Ancestral & My DNA are the most accurate DNA test companies out their. A set of twins sent their DNA to 5 different DNA companies and only Ancestral & My DNA got it right! The more people who use Ancestral & My DNA the more accurate they become (as to where your strongest genetic connections are). And so far no one who is AADOS or African for that matter has been able to show their genetic connection to the natives on the North and South America continent. Yet these Native people DNA are in the data base. Enough said!!!
@@kkrobertson1
*You say* "If it was not 99.9% accurate do you really think they would have exonerated all these black folks falsely accused of a crime, I think not. Ancestral and Dna are the most accurate dna testing companies out there"
Let's Stop here!
With that statement Above
👉 *Answer:* Lol! *Why would you get a DNA TESTING FROM FBI CRIME LABS* confused and mixed up from *Ancestry DNA Testing??????*
How you can't tell the difference?
Note: *Crimes dna testing , Paternal dna testing and Ancestral testing* are different from eachother mr Einstein and they all are not the same! 👉 *Don't get dna testing from crimes confused with ancestry!*
*You say* "A set of twins sent there dna to 5 different DNA companies and only Ancestral & dna got it right"
*Let's stop here*
With your statement above
👉 *ANSWER:* This sounds like something you've read from an article online or on a UA-cam channel and I'm willing to bet that *Those set of twins were white* huh?
*The Logic*
If they "SET OF TWINS" as you say who have gotten their DNA tested by 5 different companies and only Ancestral & Dna got it right out of the OTHER 4 COMPANIES who's testings was incorrect ..... 👉 *WHAT WAS THE OTHER RESULTS FROM THOSE OTHER 4 DNA COMPANIES* who says otherwise that didn't add up with Ansetral & Dna who got it right? 🤔 hmmmmm! It could be the other way around there pal!
*Sending your own dna in for or to companies with your own DNA kit is not TRUSTWORTHY buddy* "A set of twins SENT IN their DNA to companies" as you put!
People will lie about anything online and you're stupid enough to believe people?
*How funny you are*
👉 *You think I'm supposed to believe that bullshit if that was inaccurate from those others who got it wrong or have different results? *YOU JUST PROVED MY POINT THAT DNA TESTINGS ARE NOT 100% ACCURATE*
www.livescience.com/63997-dna-ancestry-test-results-explained.html *If you get DNA testing from different companies, you are gonna get different results and all of them are not consistent with eachother to match up accurately as the real truth*
*Checkmate*
@@anonymousperson531 ARE YOU FU@KING SERIOUS!!! You have to be young! I made it very clear as you posted! DNA is 99.9% accurate that's an unarguable scientific FACT!! Its funny how you tried to gloss over the twins! Huh, haaa, lets back it up! CBS news did this research on the twins(where is your research by the way). See what you have young fella is what we call selective hearing! In this case reading! Your trying to flip my words to fit your narrative. Everyone who will read my post will understand exactly what I meant. I said as those 2 DNA companies get more samples in their data base they will become more and more accurate as to your genetic lineage. Look your young and confused by your own ignorance. Read Ivan Van Sertima book: They Came Before Columbus. Those Africans (Omecs) build the first civilization in South America. You can trace them back to the Mandinka people. So yes their were African people on this continent before everyone else just like they were in China (xia & tang dynasty) as well as India (Dravidian or Harrapian/ Indus dynasty). Do you see them as Africans people today?! I pretty sure you do not. If we were these original people as you believe we would have a significant amount of Asian blood in us as most original Natives do (WELL HOW CAN THIS BE?!) Well I'll tell you young grasshopper. I m sure you've heard of Genghis Khan! Well he made his way to the western part of this Northern Continent that we now call America and conqueror it and all of South America. This is why the originals natives of this land has Asian blood in them! Please read: "America: Being the Latest, and Most Accurate Description of the New World"
by John Ogilby published in 1671. CLASS OVER!!!!
This is not only a compelling story, but a beautifully produced video.. John horse is now added to my list of heroes.
Glad you liked our video!
I thank you for telling this hidden piece of history It disspells the stories we heard and still hear about the history of our country I would love to hear your thoughts on the Alamo as well!
And this is one of the reasons why Gov. Ron DeSantis wants to ban Black history in all of the state of Florida, smfh!🤬
reason why they cant do movie is becuz black seminoles means they were the indians.. then them settling in mexico means blacks were there too.. they'll have to literally rewrite history. Then release film. It'll be the most watched movie ever. Sorry im 11 years late lmao
The land of the free and the home of the brave (for some). Thank you so much for this story. We can understand the truth better than the lies we’ve been told. It just makes sense when you look at the struggle Native and African Americans have endured. Systemic racism has resulted in the poverty that still plagues our communities. Thanks again
@Straight Up. I do believe this is the missing link to your The Black Southern Confederacy lecture and video.
The inescapable COLORED content of all those 5 Civilized Tribes along with the Natchez and Yuchi, Euchee.
We will talk about this later as I am sure you are preparing another lecture and video on the matter.
Hollywood would never make movies about slave revolts period,but they will make slave movies without resistance all day long
Wait a minute I thought Henry Louis Gates proved through DNA that we are not Part Native American? LOL I knew that story had a taint, My family on my fathers side are no doubt African Seminole I do not even need a DNA test to prove it.
Damiin Ñande Jallo exactly!
@ Damiin Ńande Jallo - it was cleared up but so many of our people still refuse to accept it bcuz they in fact have some native ancestry in them I mean it's rare when it's more then 50 to 75% but it is there & @ times it's even well over 20% however so are a few other races putting the true meaning to mixed race slave descendant
@@theresearchguystl actually if he said that he's lying 🤥 people have taken multiple test from multiple different companies & only by a few percentage points off are the comparisons that are found however those comparisons are IDENTICAL people just don't really wanna hear that they have high percentages of African in them or white but they jumping for joy over the slightest bit of Native ancestry & this is even if it's only a fraction of 1% they don't want to be identifying w/ Africans is all I'm steady seeing meanwhile Africans are even taking these test seriously & not bcuz their first class idiots but bcuz they ain't even stupid enough to believe that all these AA were bred off whites & highly shapely Native Americans with no percentage in most of them are usually higher then the African percentages coming from the mother or father's side
@@theresearchguystl Ya'll stop this back and forth about we're not African we're Native Indians HOW ABOUT WE ARE INDIGENOUS TO THIS PLANET! WHAT EVER REGION OF THIS PLANET WE TRAVELED TO AND FRO FROM. WE ARE THE INDIGENOUS PEOPLE WEATHER AFRICAN, INDIAN, MAROON, JAMAICAN, HAITIAN ETC...OUR PLANET ONE PEOPLE!!!
Henry Louis gates can only speak of the people he knows, my mother is 68 percent native born and reared among her people He also forgot about Bessie Coleman she was native and African American also.

The 2nd amendment is everything
The Whites don’t want to express any other peoples especially Blacks and Indians any kind of credit for valor. I would be considered a Creole or Black India. I am proud of any such history. Thank you for this historical story.
Thank you for this.The black Seminoles are my ancestors.🤘🏿🖤
These were all the same people. They were not slaves , they were prisoners of war. Black is not a nationality and neither is Indian, look it up. Slave means Slavic, look it up. She is telling only part of the truth, but she is giving you something.
