- Award-winning actor Adam Beach delivers a talk titled "Rewriting the Hollywood Indian" at the College of Arts & Science, University of Saskatchewan. Beach spoke in Saskatoon on Oct. 2, 2017 as part of the Gail Appel Lectureship in Literature and Fine Arts.
This is the best speech I ever heard about native matters. Adam Beach, I hope You will achieve everything You dream of for Your people. You will always be in my heart.
Adam is always delightful to hear speak publicly, but that was above even his standard. He really put deep thought into this presentation. it's so inspiring to see someone at that level wearing his heart on his sleeve for the people.
Adam beach you are legend awesome native American actor cool guy
Love the song & I'm digging you Digniddy too (lol). Roots are so important & thank you for sharing part of your story & your lineage & sharing your heart.
The sweetest guy............I love to listen to his talks...........he is so natural and authentic.
Adam get your own you tube channel, lots of power and a way to make money for your causes. You are ready and powerful when you talk because you are passionate
Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee was the best hope he get more movies from Native American history or remake like crazy horse
Adam you are a blessing to this world . You are such the better person than me. I need to sit down and take notes asap. You need people to support you Adam. 👊 in the fight of the native american issue/s . Constantly being pushed under. I admire your integrity. Peace and love my brother.
This must also hit home personally for Adam, after losing his Uncle/Father figure Chris Beach in 2016, and his Uncle's foster son who took his own life in 2005. Adam is a WONDERFUL person, and I have read that his Uncle Chris Beach was a really great man too. Very kind people.
Jenny,Adam lost his pregnant mom from a drunkin driver,then his dad drowned a couple weeks later( maybe suicide) and he and his brothers moved in with his grandmother and then uncle at a very young age.Yes,he has been through a rather traumatizing life himself.
Great video to get to know Adam slightly better. Love the man he is. Thank you for this video.
Why aren't there more views??? Ugh....I would love to meet Adam!! 💞
This is truly heart breaking
Thank you Adam, for living with heart.
I love this guy! He is amazing! Beautiful amazing soul!
What a wonderful human being.
i heard many speaches but this as an many Years Famous Actors is very Important for Natives and the World
Adam you hit the nail on the head. I am not Indian, but I have seen through the same lens of which you are speaking. Not through experience, but just seeing the BS for myself .
You know bringing up the fact of Indian people being only the back drop of Hollywood. I always saw that and also when you were in suicide squad you hardly got any screen time. Be nice to see a native person play a native and non native roles.
If anyone is to save anyone it is the Creator.
We should stop seeing people and their color. You are awesome Adam! I pray GOD guides you through this process.
BEAUTIFUL 👏🏾😭💐
He made some deeply insightful points & also has an infectious laugh! Great lecture, Adam.
dude, everytime i see adam h's always nice and gives me a hug ! i kid u not
Love you, Adam!!!!! Proud of you 👏......where can we help your cause Adam Beach? Donate? where?
You are doing so great Adam
Starts at 4:54 You're Welcome! 😁
"Dignity and strength"---that's what AB has brought to his every role, and so to the mainstream culture's idea of Native peoples which needs so badly to be changed. I hope he will someday play the lead role in my fact-based film about Native New England, a Massachusett leader called Many Arrows, in "Merrymount: A True Adventure Comedy." ancientlights.org/merrymount.html
O tempo parece que não passa para ele, sempre jovial.
I am a fan of famous American Indians/Canada First Nations and he is my idol. And honestly, he has the charisma of Russell Means.
They all look ahh like two Billy jack is more hat size. Leave did alone all ready act sew blanket infected
Russell was a jerk.
@@AhNee play Indian game act selling sale sold one ball Russell
The fact of the Suffer and Mourning of Native People the more i hear is very touching my Heart and makes Fact that the Movies with Natives are Ways to Survive for natives und exploses the Lies in Movies of Romancing the native
a great guy..easy to watch..open and honest..
Lovely speech!! Adam is seriously such an amazing person, leader, and (it seems like) friend! Does anyone know where I can keep up with his projects? Or in general if there's a reliable website with updates of Indigenous peoples&film? (besides APTN)?
This makes me want to tell my heartbreak story. However there are many heartbreak children stories. Warriors never show weakness so we show with spirit and giving
I meet Adam beach in the summer of 1997. I was traveling from my hometown of Sipekne'katik first nation . Heading to the Highlands of waygobah Cape Breton. I was expected to attend the soft ball tournament .It just so happens that there was a pow wow going on at the same time. As I'm gathering my belongings from the bottom of the bus I stop n take a break. The whole sound crew decided to step off the bus n stretch there legs. As I'm listening to the conversation amongst them their curious of the view.I started joining into the conversation. Answering questions as best I could. Long behold an answer I shoot back was "enit ah".I had 3 different non-native people look back at me all puzzled. Then somebody asked me what the phrase ment. So I described it as best I could. Then the director explained his quest. Asking if he can have permission to use it in the content of his style of writing. Sure glad the home team I was routing for won the game that year. Otherwise I wouldn't have had the privilege of meeting Victor & Thomas g-riding on the local public transit.I dought anybody else remember me. I might have been known as the "enit eh" Indian women who came from the middle of nowhere. I was only 16 at the time.
Sending all my hope.
Hey, What can I do as a Euroopean , ? loving YOUR people ?????
omg I love him so much
please can i srare this...i love adam beach...
I love you i am a big fan
14:08 he did the best ever as Ira Hayes in Flags of our father's some scenes where he's in distress & being on the battlefield thereon the beach seeing dead GI's layin around heads cut off his experience though
That’s a patchwork jacket from my tribe
48:18 I was just watching *Red Dragon* the other night! It would’ve been interesting to see Adam in a villainous role 😈🎬🍿
ATA. Frank Fence Post does good. LILILILI
dude, this is cool
You have David and Amanda
I´m very sad, I could make a sea full of tears why I have so much bad luck. THere is someone who takes my luck away. Everythng I do I do it wrong. My lifes sense, My good goes away, with every day more far away. I have done so many bad, stupid things, but was it alll wrong? For nothing? I don´t want to believe this. At least I love them, at least I can wait. Hatuk Hill
You kissed my mom on the check
ADAM, DO THE NATIVE WANT TO BE CALLED INDIAN OR NATIVE AMERICANS? LOOKING FORWARD TO THE NEW MOVIES
Homesteading The Pioneer Way Native Americans or just Natives is fine. Indigenous is fine as well!
@@kaebee2443 id rather steal the indian name from the easterners lol. it fits well with us.
Firs Nation in Canada. Pretty precise.
I think he used "Indian" because of the generational gap. Adam is a Gen-X, he grew up in the 80's and early 90's where the term "Indian" was accepted as someone of Indigenous background in the Americas region. Additionally, other Gen-X natives from USA also prefer "Indian" or "American Indian" to remind the US government to honor the treaties made with the tribes.
@@karlos_infamous We all have our personal designations, has nothing to do with Gen-X or anything else. "Indian" is also still a legal definition. It's as individual as people are.
In order to volunteer for 10+ hours a week, you need to be able to afford it.
This is the Universal Basic Income. Let’s give volunteers a guaranteed minimum income of $1,500ish USD/month.
So they can make our communities better.

He is high on.something
His song sounds like a peyote song. I wonder if he ever thought that?
Lmfao omg 2 more answers 🤣🤣🙏🏽
Universal Basic Income today ! Give homeless peoples your money today!
why not find an indiginous youth whos able to write a script, and find other indiginous peoples to act, produce, etc... and show the old stories that are handed down from the elders?
Because Hollywood isn't opening those doors. Though now with "Rutherford Falls" and "Reservation Dogs", those doors might open a sliver of a crack.
Go deeper in your song way echo using head lines scripting. Be bee gee yaeeee
