- Happy Native American Heritage Month!
For the occasion I wanted to upload a compilation from Indigenous Tiktokers as their voices have been silenced countless times.
Suggest me what other compilation I should do next and you'll get a chance to win a shoutout in one of my videos
Please note that I do not own any of the videos in this compilation. All credits go to the original creators.

Why are indigenous people so damn pretty and handsome?
Like they're one of the most beautiful people I have ever seen man
thank u:,)))
Why, thank you;)
❤
Thank you :)
I agree.
That kids voice is AMAZING!
I almost started to tear up, really was so amazing
dude his voice is beautiful I was so impressed I wish my voice were as strong and beautiful
There was another video on a little boy singing it was just beautiful I don’t know where it is but just look up little boy singing at powwow or powwow Native American powerhouse or indigenous people
Right? That little man has power!
Chills!
I’m African American and my late fiancé was Indigenous. Our daughter comes from 2 beautiful groups of people who have and continue to be broken down and whitewashed by this country, but none the less perseveres. It’s refreshing to see Indigenous people continue to practice their traditions and educate others.
@askella A Okay, I was about to say that it's not whitewashing since obviously people in those groups chose to marry white people, but what you said is actually racist. Neither of them are weak, and primitive is actually good sometimes as it preserves culture.
BOTH ARE THE NATION OF YSRAEL JUDAH AND ISRAEL DEUTERONOMY 7:6 🔥🦁🐃
@@thetruth14444 No they’re not
He wasn’t indigenous. Stop blaming white people for your problems.
I can relate my youngest is Native and Black
I'm Mexican and I live near a reservation. I remember riding the bus home with the Natives and I would listen to their stories and legends. I have such a drawing and a fascination to their culture. It is so ver6 beautiful
How strange, in Mexico there have never been reservations/concentration camps for indigenous people.
@@bvillafuerte765 this is the dumbest comment i've ever read. like really stupid.
@@bvillafuerte765 a reservation isn't a concentration camp dumbass, it's land legally owned and inhabited by the indigenous tribes that lived there first. and there are plenty of them in Mexico.
@@bvillafuerte765 I really want to meet a real Americans , I live in Maryland Could someone let me know where I can meet these wonderful people
You are Aztec
as a black perosn it makes me really sad that i have not been taught about indigenous history well in school, the same way my school didnt teach much about slavery, so i started doing my own research and it is truly so heartbreaking. i really would love for us black brothers and sisters and wonderful indigenous people to stand together and support one another. our communities have been through so much for YEARS, i dont want us to ever be against each other , but to support one another.
Um what area did you live in the USA? I'm asking cause I think that matters how much your local school district goes into that stuff. I'm around Pittsburgh PA so we definitely have alot of native American history surrounding us at all times.
where I grew up we went heavily into native American history cause for one we had a very well known and detailed local history of the local tribes cause we had a famous battlefield that was the British vs native Americans which despite being a small battlefield was a badass battle. Which is recreated and etc every year with locals among other things.
We had to build wigwams and etc from a young age plus of course the field trip at around 8yrsold literally down the road where we handled legit stuff from that time period which wasn't even 3 minutes from my own house.
Also idk if this matters but we had way more native Americans then African American kids so I wonder too if that's another reason why I'm not sure. But yeah despite being a super rich white with alot of Italians we had a really high native American population. It started as a poor coal mining/rural farm area hence why all the Italians and etc but last idk 40 years or so had turned it into the richest best school district around. So we definitely had way more resources and better teachers which could be another reason why we learned so much about the local tribes.
I'm sorry this is dragging out but i should add in that my son is at the rival school district which neighbors it so super close and I noticed he hasn't done at all barely what I've learned which ironically he's started learning recently so they could go more into but if I compare by his age I learned way more than him. But so far he's learned about the same amount of black history as I did.
@@constantine9142 oh wow, that is very interesting!! and i am not from the US, i am canadian ❤️
@@grrrohmy665 yeah I'm just saying I think location is a big part of our education and what we learn. Kinda makes more sense that if you're surrounded by native American history in the north east to focus on it more than idk the alamo for example.
I'm not saying ignore the Alamo but kinda ridiculous if you don't know your local history best but the Alamo more.
I think they do that in cities from what I understand as well since it's more African Americans there they focus more on black history than some other aspects from what friends told me.
Idk it's kinda hard to shit on education in this area when you realize how much history happened just around you and then you gotta learn the rest of your country and then around the world it's really daunting when you think about it.
So Stuff is gonna fall through which is why it's great when kids get in highschool and college they can choose classes that super focus on say black history or Asia. Also you can always educate yourself just like I did with Tudor history and the war of roses later in life. Just because your school didn't have enough time or resources doesn't mean you can't look and educate yourself!
People put it as it's all the schools fault but really it's their own for not just doing it themselves. There is the internet with all it's resources, libraries and bookstores, museums including those little local ones everyone ignores, and etc.
This makes you a more well rounded person who isn't boring to talk to. I meet so many people that all they talk about is their labels, themselves repeatedly or whatever boring stupid thing on their phones or barely able to hold a conversation at all let alone one of substance. Well this is how you don't do that along with other hobbies whether it's hiking or art.
I'm from Leeds, West Yorkshire, England and I am ashamed of how black and Asian people have been treated like dirt, I love you all (Everyone) no matter where your from, and I believe that love can bring the word together again.
@@constantine9142 location definitely matters on how much you are educated about indigenous people and their tribes. I live in Oklahoma, so most of our history classes are about native Americans. But history classes everywhere should cover Native Americans!
The young man playing the Native flute is an absolutely beautiful sound.
His name is notoriouscree
Thank you
My late father used to make native flutes & everyone loved it. The sound was so peaceful
I'm a native but I gotta say doesn't it sound like Clint Eastwood 😂 (We Do Joke Too)
Native women are so naturally stunning and carry themselves with such badassery and self respect. I mean, that lady in the picture from the 19th century??! Just absolute perfection.
It kills me every day to know that I might never know my tribal heritage. My great grandfather was native but through assimilation my family have lost their traditions and our history.
Same here, my great grandmother was part of a tribe in Brazil, but my heritage got lost and no one passed the culture...
My Mom found an ancestor of ours listed as native on the census. She hid her status to marry a white man for security. It kills me to know she didn’t feel safe.
I feel ya, my great grandmother on was Native American and my mom has some ancestry as well. I can only pray one day I’ll know.
Literally have so much respect for them, they’re such an overlooked group of people
Same ... i always feel included though because i look like my aztecan ancestors they see me as one of them
Yeah same
I disagree
@@jaredstevens5382 how so?
@Titus Telesco how do you figure?
"I live where the land meets the sky" that killed me lol
That sounds EPIC :)
That one has to be hands down my fav.
“I’m his neighbor “
@@PlayshotKalo that part had me dead AF 🤣
@@PlayshotKalo 🤣🇫🇷🇨🇭✊🏼🌺
I'm African and it warms my heart seeing Indiginous people and us ethnic people in general being proud of our culture.
They are not indigenous
@@kaydod3190 ?
@@kaydod3190 yes they are I know because I am indigenous and it means first nation and I think you should have done your research instead of saying misinformation
@@ineverexisted7934 No they are NOT. No you are NOT.
You know they owned black slaves up to 16 years after the emancipation proclamation right?
A few years ago I had the privilege of attending a Pow Wow consisting of the Hoocągra or Winnebago (Ho-chunk). I received a special invitation since I invited the owner, who was of that tribe, to my party/gathering. It was the best experience I've ever had. Everyone looked amazing, I was able to purchase items sold from their actual venues and give back to their community, watch several glorious dances, and taste the best food ever. It felt like attending a family barbecue. As a Black person, it was enriching to experience a culture outside of my own without having to travel far. We should appreciate the people who made the USA, my home country, what it really is today. I will keep supporting my Native/Indigenous people as an advocate and hopefully a good ally.
THEIR CULTURE IS BEAUTIFUL AF
It has a uniqueness that no other culture has. Not to mention the people and their voices, they are literally so pretty, I could never.
Sacrificing children isn’t beautiful.
Which one? They had many different tribes.
@@Kettie5 the people and their voices? What?
@@Nonamelol. Say that about residential schools
Whenever I hear the word America my heart goes right away to the native Americans. Respect for you. Despite all that you've suffered, the discrimination, genocide you still stand tall and proud. Never let your culture, tradition fade away. If I ever visit America I'd like to know about your tradition more than anything.
Thank you ♥️♥️♥️
If you come to Canada (or the US), plan to visit one or more of the many beautiful Pow Wow celebrations. It embodies their traditional beliefs, it's sincerely an exciting, unifying and spiritual experience.
@@katgrl1330 Actually this is something I have on my bucket list. 😊
Unfortunately the libtards are bringing war into this country and they're dividing everyone with their Marxist policies I think of America as different diverse and everything
Despite the fact that they all came from Mesopotamia.
Total respect for native Americans.... I've always been intrigued by their culture....not to mention that this land was their land first.....remember that
I don't know how to begin to answer this.
No it wasnt.
@@gingerbread7113 Lmao yes it is. They were the first humans to ever get to the continent. Now, exactly which native americans own what is debateable, but Native Americans are the sole owners of their own land.
@@eestimarksist I doubt it. Thats a white mans lie.
@@gingerbread7113 they came about 13K years ago ☠️ The only thing thats a "white mans lie" is the disgusting ass erasure of their history to the land of America.
I was taken off the rez when I was 6. I finally came back when I was 28, that's been 30 yrs ago and I'm still learning about my culture. My native mom and sister taught me how to bead when I was 40 yrs old. I had just gone into remission from stage 4B Stomach cancer. I did my Healing Ceremony with my cousin while not very well on chemo. I went into remission 3 months later, and Have been cancer free for 16yrs this November 20th. I can't thank my cousin enough for doing this for me. That saved my life. Mayo clinic said I had 3-6 months survivability if I was lucky. HAHAHA!! Jokes on them! I'm still here and take every chance to do sweat that I can, plus Sundance and Pow Wows. Our Creator is AMAZING!!
Ofc because chemio it's nothing then true toxic poison that kills ppl with cancer instead of helping em! I'm glad that now you are in good health!
I'm glad you've recovered, you should take advantage of the rest of your life to enjoy it and work spreading your culture to people.
That is amazing
Wow! That little boy can sing from his heart. He's terrific!
And has an absolute amazing voice range
Goosebumps!!! Get iiiiit!!!
As an inuit I love other indigenous showing how proud they are of their origin.
I love you all✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿
Seems like they are salty as hell.
@@jaredstevens5382 yes, cause appreciating our heritage is salty. We must stick to the white ways only
@@mikaylawilliams1651 nobody said that, they were crying about white people
@@jaredstevens5382 Where💀? Why, cause they brought up genocide? That’s called history.
@@mikaylawilliams1651
The Aztecs killed more native tribes than any white man. I don't hear them complaining about that.
I love all you Native Americans my heart breaks for the extreme mistreatment of your people, I admire your strength and pride of culture it’s inspiring 🙏
I love how social media allows people to spread their culture.
‼️I agree! I also have a question for native americans. And I know every tribe is different so if you are from one of the tribes where the women grow their hair very long can you explain why that is done. Is it like a tradition to not cut your hair once you reach womanhood or once you're married. Or is it just for aesthetic reasons? I know the answer will probably be different based on what tribe you are but if anyone has any knowledge about that if you could please answer I would greatly appreciate it. They have such beautiful hair! Also if any native women want to drop their hair care routine I would like that very much as well ❤️
@@WhitneyDahlinon my tribe we cut our hair only when a family member passed away
As a native woman I'm so proud when people want to ask me questions about it. I maybe brown but I'm so much more deeper than my skin color
Your culture is so beautiful, iam a brown person from pakistan (south asia)
And we love culture, and right now iam trying to learn more about your culture, and honestly? Iam loving it, its so beautiful
We agree!
I'm brown too, hopefully tribes from all over the continent stick together and helped each other.
That doesn't matter. Something brown can be quite delicious to eat. 😁❤️
HI FRIENDSHIPS GREETINGS FROM MY PEOPLE OF JAPAN WE LOVE OUR SPIRITUAL BROTHERS THE NATIVE AMERICANS ❤️🐷🇯🇵
Imagine how much richer cultures would be if they had co-opted and embraced the Indigenous instead of trying to exterminate them. Indeed ONE of mankind and histories greatest and grossest injustices. Here's looking at New Zealand.
I wondered that many times, how different the house would be, our foods, our thoughts and way of living.
@@SiSiNoNoLOL Those things are material. Knowledge and information is priceless. All lost to the winds of history.
some of my family lives in a small little czech town not far from a rez. most of the population is older so it’s hard for me to relate being younger. and the fact that i don’t live there lol. however, food is shared *a lot* and polka and pow wow happen simultaneously. selling our jewelry to each other is also pretty common. i wouldn’t say the two cultures blended but they definitely co-exist together in a beautiful way.
Native Culture DID get incorporated into the American legacy.
Yeah... but also, co-opting has often led to whitewashing.
The father and daughter singing...it took me out! I've recently lost a dearly loved cousin, who was like a mom and I actually looked just like her. Even before the English version, it spoke to me. I have Native ancestry (Blackfoot and Choctaw) so the singing in any Native language always touches me. It's like it reaches a part of my soul that recognizes it and automatically connects to the words even though I don't understand them. That song eased my pain and comforted me. ❤❤❤
I'm so very sorry for your loss 🌹
I have Choctaw as well sweetie we should take time to learn about that history that was not taught to us - ua-cam.com/video/q9lHh7Qs3jw/v-deo.html
Im also Choctaw
Sorry for your loss, I'm happy that beautiful song easy the pain
Yes the boy's voice is spiritually anointed and beautifully necessary. Thank you so much for sharing.
Indigenous people are honestly some of the most beautiful people on the planet. Not just their looks but also the way that they respect everyone no matter what wrongs we’ve done to them, they respect themselves and the earth and aren’t afraid to dive deep into their heritage
Girl have you ever been on a Res? I am sure the answer is no.

Lol girl that ain't true lot of native are hella racist
I like the one where the guy gives a speech about where the land meets the sky. Then the guys goes I'm his neighbors. Cracked me up.
I am his neighbor too! 🤭😁
I thought I had heard those lines in the movie, Dance Me Outside, when the boys are arrested and questioned at the police station. Great lines, great scene.

I'm from Aotearoa / New Zealand and i really love and appreciate your indigenous culture ONI
i’m from england, but i love & appreciate this culture too. it’s very fascinating to learn more about indigenous tribes and people. ♥️
I came here from Black Conservative Perspective’s channel. I’m looking for that Native American tik toker talking about people who’s ancestors enslaved others need to pay reparations to black Americans. But Native Americans not only owned Black slaves, but they also refused to give up their slaves after the civil war. Natives literally owned slaves longer than white Europeans so I’m just trying to find her so I can get some reparations from her that she keeps speaking of…
@@jamesdoakes4956 Actually only 4 known tribes owned slaves. Those tribes no longer exist, because they’ve been wiped out during/after the civil war. But you’re correct. Just don’t generalize the whole of the Native American community, because the families that owned slaves are either dead, or of a European , native mix. So most blood is gone.
As a Native American in fills my heart with a great pleasure to see all the nations respect our waves praise to you all🙏😇
I'm not a Native American but they're so ignored by people even though they've been fighting for so many years. They deserve so much more representation ! Because they're just seen as "savage" and "murderer" people. Even here in France they're still called the "Indians".
Good luck for you guys, as someone who's part of a minority, I'm with you ❤️
It’s sad that people with a lot of money already like Charlie and Dixie DeAmilo are getting MORE money and fame for doing almost NOTHING (just stupid dances that enyone can do) when it took these people from minutes to HOURS to do. NOTE: I’m not hating on the sisters. All I’m saying is that it’s kinda unfair.
No disrespect to charli but how come she has a million views on eating a little peace of cake on tik tok
Let's face it because their white and pretty n skinny
I think it isn't Charlie's fault, really, but the fault of millions of people watching her stuff. I'm not exactly sure what's so fun ab watching a kid dance to overused songs for 10 seconds 🤔
@@doggylady6950 you got a point right there? But she can get away with things and yeah people do give attention idk why.
I totally understand that, and I am NOT hating on anyone or taking sides with anyone, but they don't really control getting views & followers. their videos may be very boring and not have a lot of effort, but they're doing everything they can to keep it the way it is, dances take work, and the videos where they get LOTS of views for doing nothing is just they have a big platform, and people can just come across the video a lot. Their videos may have not a lot of effort, but you have to think, it's tiring having a huge platform, and maybe they are even running out of ideas. Once again, NO hate at all to anyone and I'm not taking sides with anyone, I'm just saying.
Indigenous culture is so interesting and cool, especially the music
I agree

@@westcoastbred7745 A lot of people are actually mixed. My step grandfather who came from a slave family is mixed with native. This is cause a lot of our tribes offered refuge to people who escaped slavery! Obviously his blood isn’t as modern as mine, as his great grandmother was full, and my grandmother and grandfather are full.
We love and adore you too!
I only recently found out my ancestors were indigenous people of Mexico, possibly Tarahumara. It makes me so sad how this culture is slowly disappearing and how little we learn of native Americans in school.
It only disappears if you let it!
Same! I did a DNA test and I have indigenous people of Mexico in me as well! I wish I knew that culture!
Indigenous mexicans are not the same at native americans simply because Indigenous people of Mexico are not from america.

As an African I would like to say we used to play the hand string games.
Majority of us don't know where it came from and we never claimed it...but it was always serious competition to see who could make more stuff from the string😂❤the more shapes you made the more legendary you became.
Your cultures/tribes are lovely,be blessed 💞
We play this in Central Europe too
We play in the Caribbean islands too.
And even the dance in this video are actually most of them done by the some countries in west Africa
I used to make stars! I wish I remembered how!
Love these! Keep your culture and language ALIVE!💯
I got chills when that kid started singing.
I love seeing Native people being able to fully embrace their culture once again. I hope they’re successful in rebuilding what was destroyed. I just can’t get over those beaded outfits and the way the move when they dance. And the singing is amazing. You don’t have to know the language to feel the power and emotion in those songs. And damn, native people are fine as hell. I love the way the men wear their hair, and the women are gorgeous!!!
@Seventy Seconds to Midnight why so mad?
@Seventy Seconds to Midnight well, we DO dance! What would you call it? And WHY are you SO angry? Dannng! Lighten up!

These Native American cultures, traditions, and even their lives are beautiful. No, I’m not Native American, I have no tribe, and I’m not their skin color. Some people steal things that shouldn’t be there’s from many cultures, but when I see Native Americans expressing their culture and what’s happened to them just because of their skin color and that their “different”.

well with that öä it seems like you are danish, then you're tribe is north German. We are literally the fathers of Europe thanks to the large migration from the north to the rest of Europe
im Mayan native hispanic and african
WILIYAN ( it means thank you)❤❤❤
@@galenbjorn443 I'm of North German descent too, but I think we need to also give Latin and Greek people credit where credit is due, if Germans are the fathers of Europe, then Latins and Greeks are the grandparents. Before Charlemagne it was the Caesars, before them, Alexander and Phillip II of Macedon. And although the Slavs were pretty late to the civ game, they still contributed a fair bit to European culture through people like Peter the Great.
1:17 literally gave me chills, that kid is really amazing. native americans who still preserving their culture is amazing, i am obsessed with their songs now. 😭😀😀😀😀🤔
Brought tears to my eyes on the emotion I felt that young man showed in his singing
All of the ones with “NATIVE AMERICANS “ singing did me in
Such emotion
Are you high? If I woke up to my neighbors doing that we would have problems
He’s got some pipes on him!
I'm african, and, here, we love all the natives people. Real survivor you are.

Your culture is so beautiful and rich. You should preserve it at all cost. Support from Mongolia.
Oooh Mongolia! I've always wanted to visit your country. It looks so beautiful and filled with amazing people!

What did subsaharan Africans build exactly 😂

Indigenous peoples of North America and the Arctic Regions have absolutely O% in common with the Africans. The American tribes all came over from Asia across the Bering Sea Land Bridge until it disappeared 14,000 years ago due to shifting plate tectonics.

Love from INDIA, before watching the video I don't know much about american indigenous culture but now I know very much about them , love who you are and don't care about others they don't matter .
i am directly celtic (native people of ireland and west europe), and i feel the pain of native peoples across america and the world. my ancestors were raped, pillaged, killed, burned, and opressed by the roman army, just as native peoples were and continue to be. i hope that one day, *all* native people can stand up together and realize that no matter the colour, we are all connected, and we can celebrate each other's heritage and spirtualities, realize each other's trauma, and fight for freedom for all native peoples still opressed today. Grá agus saoirse do chách! ✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿
True. It's to see how the Roman empire massacred so many cultures while trying to build their power.
I'm Irish Celtic with an ancestry of native American,. I don't know much about that part of me tho , but my Irish culture has been strongly passed down , I'm so glad the Irish language act was passed in the north , Scotland has one Wales has one but the Irish were not allowed one
@@luanunes14 The Roman Empire gave enemies two options: Surrender or be conquered. None was to commit genocide and extinguish their culture.
We Native Americans support our Irish/Celtic brothers and sisters
We're still here 600+ tribes and languages, from north to south america and the caribbean!!! Some of us are fluent in our native languages AND spanish, english, dutch, french, etc. Retaining our native culture and what we had to learn in school/TV/colonized society
The little boy singing with the drum was beautiful
I feel the country has some what felt comfortable with sweeping some things under the rug.
I also think... that has contributed to feeling a lack of culture honor in parts of my own heritage.
This helped with that...Thank you for helping to repair some of the negative connotation. 🙏
"Somewhat" is the understatement of a lifetime. I hope your pride continues to grow and swell as you learn more about who you are!

Mexico Native 🇲🇽
Hi, Black British🇬🇧 here. We learn very little about native Americans in our schools. The very little I know is what I've researched myself. I visited New York for the first time in 2010 to see family and was shocked and surprised that I did not see Native Americans in the street. Where are you? I went twice to the Native American museuem in NY. I was in love with the clothing and bead work I saw and thought it was similar to African bead work.
Thank you for this video. I love what you had to say about the braiding of your hair. I liked your knives and now I have learnt a new word, 'ula'. Would like to try the beluga whale meat and meet with Native Americans the next time I return to America. Stay strong. Much love👍🏿👊🏿👏🏿👩🏿🦱❤
I'm white and I've always been fascinated by the indigenous culture. I really appreciate their harmony with nature, equal roles in the community, sense of family, moving songs and stunning attire. May those who are related or not continue to gather so we can learn from this culture and nurture it as it nurtures us
I'm Black, but I share your sentiment 🙂
I agree 100%. I love to learn about new stuff, especially new cultures.
A few weeks ago, I was approached by a white woman. She saw me wearing my beaded hat and necklace and asked me the same question "What Native are you?"
I responded "I'm Dinè".
She then said "My grandmother was a Cherokee princess".
I responded "No she wasn't. There's no such thing as one".
She looked at me and said "Are you saying that cause I'm White?"
I said "No! I'm saying that because someone taught you wrong about the Indigenous people".
She later walked off with embarrassment, but I walked off with confidence of being a Dinè.
Watching this makes me even more proud of where I come from. All Natives are proud and loud and we do not take another person's ignorance about our traditions.
Native people... USE YOUR VOICE! USE YOUR TRADITIONS... more importantly... USE YOUR LANGUAGE!
Im mexican apache mixed and in my experience with alot of white people they throw a couple of cards when it comes to heritage. 1st card is they always throw percentages of European because thet dont care much about their own heritage so they make stuff up. 2nd card when they say they're part native to feel entitled or special 99.9% of the time its Cherokee.
Oh btw any chance you know who that girl at the 2:50 min mark is do you?
Tell them
not the Cherokee princess💀
This is fucking great, I love see these complications on UA-cam. Since it seems, that indigenous are getting pushed to the back burner. An getting to see that traditions are still thriving is amazing.
Support indigenous!
That young man who was singing is very talented
i’m happy to see this in my recommended. although i’m not native myself, i think the culture is so beautiful and i’m sad no one ever talks about it. natives need more recognition and we need to teach people about their history, the good, but also the bad and the prejudice natives have face in this country.
Ya
It's so beautiful to see generations embracing their culture. My native ancestry has been extremely white washed since my great grandmother. I understand the reasoning and don't hold negativity it still saddens me that it was just breeded out. But I do remember my great grandmother and hold her memory close. The part of braided hair was her daily routine. It made me teary eyed
Yes! I agree with the white-washing thing. I'm 25% Kispiox (Canada). My mom is half, and her mom is 100%.
I literally have all the same bone structure, hair, etc. as my mom & grandma, but I get called white all the time by people, including family 🙄
It's like... Do you not have eyes? Or a brain?
How can you understand the reasoning behind the ahnialation of your nations and culture for white enrichment - especially when they inflicted incalculable suffering and dehumanization on your people and left you with nothing. You fought bravely for 400 years to protect your land and families. They even robbed you of your language. They cut your braids off to make you look and act like them, yet to this day call you savages and exploit your sacred symbols for profit. You weren't "breeded out' ! Be sad but stand up to preserve the truth. American history begins with you-not the European immigrants. For your grandmother's sake don't let the world forget it.
@@florencedebear1576 I think you're speaking from a kind place with good intentions, but I feel like this person was just saying they understand that it's harder to have children with people who are also Native when there's significantly less Natives around.
@@annie4150 Yes, I see his point. Thanks for clarifying.
Yes. It happens to so many like you trying to keep connected to your lineage through the generations.
I’ll say it again! So much beauty and handsomeness indigenous people have. Prayers to everyone and hope your holidays were nice
I get so happy to see indigenous peoples keeping their cultures alive. Thank you for posting this.
I’m not Native American but this is amazing, thanks so much and I hope you all had a great month
Native Mexicans make tamales.
Also, my gramma was so poor in Tepic, Nayarit that she had to survive on the seeds of grasses and weeds.
Today, the sweet little old lady is loved and cherished by all the members of our family. Her children built her a humble two story house. She brought morality and love of our family. I’d be an asshole if it weren’t for her. Her husband and my other grandparents were assholes.
We NEVER mess with the Grandmas! They RULE! 😁😆🤣😂
Tamales are American food, also in Peru we prepare and consume them. I hope you are enjoying the time with your family and your ex-grandparents are paying for their crimes.
Respect for natives. They never lost out on there history. White man could learn much from the natives.
I’m mixed native and I dance old style jingle and i am so happy that you have posted this it is very helpful and appreciated ❤
I wish there was a community to support them and help fix things for them...yes I am a native American.
America doesn't care enough to do that sadly. Too much greed.
hey, i know that there's arabs and north africans that go in Nunavut or other poor northern region of the Canada and build houses and things like that ! I am moroccan and i love your culture and all of you ! Y all are just so nice !
@@theren2486 thank you very much! I am somewhere up in the 90 % and I am trying to learn both cherokee and apache language since I have both of those kinds in my blood. I hope this really blows up so I can know just how many people agree. I know little about my religion because it's been ripped away from us. But truly thank you for letting me know there are good people out there!
HI FRIENDSHIPS GREETINGS FROM MY PEOPLE OF JAPAN WE LOVE OUR SPIRITUAL BROTHERS THE NATIVE AMERICANS ❤️🐷🇯🇵
@@BossGokaiGreen we are related to them. I’m Filipino. They were descended from an ancient stock of people from Central Asia that crossed Siberia towards the Berangian Strait. Those very people also moved southwards to Mongolia and China. It became the ancestors of East and South East Asians.
I had no idea string games are Inuit! I’m from Quebec and i played similar games as a child!
@Soso Notchurbusiness yeah but considering this woman is from Nunavik (I think I remember her saying it in another TikTok) which is northern Quebec, it’s pretty clear where it comes from.
@Soso Notchurbusiness and I’m saying that in the case of Westernized Quebec, it clearly comes from the Inuit, not f-ing ancient China. It’s basic logic
@Soso Notchurbusiness it was at the very least, 12 000 years ago. Cultures change, and as is very clear when you look at all the different Native American cultures, they have certainly not stayed the same since they crossed over to America. Although yes, it might have popped in separate geographical locations at separate times, the version I played as a child in Quebec is clearly inherited from the Inuit version, as not only is the geographical location making it more likely, but the game is *literally exactly the same* .
@@maried.4980 une québécoise !!!
@@maried.4980 I'm from Europe (Germany) and we played this string game all the time as kids, our parents taught us. I've never met someone who met an Inuit or Native American from any South or North American country. maybe it's just something that kinda.. develops if you play with string? And then spreads to neighboring kids?
I’m Métis and I’m working on getting in touch with my heritage. I love this culture, it’s beautiful and graceful I can’t imagine how there is still people discriminating against First Nations peoples. I’m so sorry to anyone facing racism and I’m here to listen even though I haven’t been through the same struggles.
Your white not indigenous

Why wouldn’t you want to keep your heritage when it is as magnificent as this.
They literally forced it out of them. They forced them into reform schools where they were forced to assimilate to white culture.
There are no words.
Because it’s been taken from us. If we could get it back we would. Most of our ancestors have been put into camps, and where taught how to live a more European life. We lost our touch to our ancestral home.
@@mikaylawilliams1651 as a black american....I feel you and sympathize with the pain of your people.
@@symoneprice4980 thank you. Please know that we have your back as well.❤️
I want to apologize. When I was younger I went as an indigenous person for Halloween. I am very sorry for my mistake. I was young and stupid. I love learning about their wonderful cultures now and hope that I can help heal some of the damage my people have done to them.
Call it character development!
@Jai Pennycuick Your ignorance is showing, sir, do you mind taking care of it? To indigenous people their clothing and their regalia is sacred, it is more than just pieces of fabric. White people wearing those clothes without acknowledging the culture and not being affiliated with it in any way is cultural appropriation. Unlike the clothing of indigenous people, "white people clothing" does not have as much cultural significance, therefore anyone can wear said "white people clothing" without it being considered cultural appropriation. In conclusion, to Indigenous people their clothing is more than mere pieces of fabric and white people wearing them while disregarding their cultural significance is cultural appropriation
Redemption arc!
Don't feel sorry for a costume girl... You did it because you found it nice, you liked it. I see nothing wrong on liking anothers culture clothing. Is like telling us Latinos to not do first comunion bc it is eiropeam or bc it means oppression. We can do both native and catholic believes.
Well i did the same and it was such a rassist outfit . It didnt look authentic or anything it was just the stereotype. Well me and my family werent educated on that subeject so we saw nothing of it . :(
Love and respect for Native American people and their culture, from India
I luv everything about Native American ways of life. Beautiful ppl! 💛✊🏾🌺
"I'm his neighbor" 😂😂
I am a indigenous woman from the Cheyenne/Arapahoe tribe as well as the Chickasaw tribe. I am lighter skinned then most natives and have been bad mouthed for it. But it was hard growing up for my greatgran was the last woman in our family to fallow our roots. So many native family I meet who no longer fallow traditional for the fact they fear it will make life hard for their children in the future. I remember my great gran telling me before she passed that me being lighter skinned will help since I will bend in but I wanted my roots. The fear of what this country will do the the Natives still haunts them everyday. Since I never grew up knowing my traditions I wish all natives who do to stay strong and never give up for anyone when it comes to your beliefs.
Yes. Thank you for this. I'm also lighter skinned indigenous (Kispiox/Gitsxan) and always felt kinda alienated or "different" from my mom, brother, and grandmother who are darker than me & have more profound indigenous features. I still have the same features, but I'm just a bit lighter.
My white grandma on my dad's side still insists that my brother and I are just white, and my brother seems to believe her because he literally puts "white/Caucasian" on most government stuff, or job applications etc. It's sickening.
12:29 I’ve been there, man. Thank you for the content, so glad we can boost these voices ❤
it’s loud but lit 🔥
Shiyo! (Hello!) I am Tsalaghi (Cherokee) and love seeing your posts. Our generation needs to keep our native blood alive and flowing.

My great grandmother was a native but I never got to learn anything from her because she passed away. My dad didn't bother talking about it and now I'm leaning things second hand, its incredibly beautiful and amazing.
That little boy in the rain singing with his family has an amazing voice, I am Jamaican and felt like my ancestors were calling me.
His name is Noah and he sings with his grandmother Carol, they are known as Chubby Cree 😁
That lil boy put soul in that.... Occaneechi/Choctaw Checking in
Native Americans are really good looking people. Coming from a southest asian woman
I look like the first Native man. I am not exactly Native, tho. I am Mongolian. I do have some indigenous blood, but not much.
I hated my high cheekbones and wide face so much. It still disturbs me sometimes. (I just never found it beautiful, especially on me.) But I guess it is what makes me me.
Be proud of who you are!
Edit: I am not calling anyone ugly with this. It was just one of my insecurities as a kid.
Cheekbones and wide faces are the most beautiful
@@PleiadianArcturian888 Correct, Native Americans or Beringians are a mixture of East Asians and Ancient Northern Eurasians, but a bit moreso on the East Asian side, especially with Siberians and Turko-Mongols. Which means Native Americans are related to both Mongols and many European cultures, even Persian and some Hindi cultures are related to Native Americans distantly through the Ancient North Eurasian part.

MAN! What?! I love my CHEEK BONES! One day I hope you LOVE yours too.
I didn't know these existed! I'm Navajo but I've grown up in the city my whole life and never really got to know my own culture too well. I know Mexican and (weirdly) Korean culture better than my own. I only know a handful of words in Navajo, one of them being my middle name so I don't think it counts and my family is huge but we've never really been very traditional, it was kinda lost on my siblings and I. I live on the reservation now with my mom and stepdad and im slowly trying to learn the 23 years of information that I failed to learn growing up
I feel you! Although we are not the same, I know the struggle of not knowing your own culture and then having to do catch-up. I feel like that's kinda common for native people. Just know it's ok!😊
Just like my sisters. The little ones grew up states away from navajo nation
@@ladynavarre9474 that's kinda like my dad's mom refusing to let me do anything with any of my tribes or cultures because hers (a really small tribe) was more endangered.
@manic Good for you! That's amazing! Then maybe you can teach your children one day too? Navajo and Korean? Both incredibly beautiful cultures💜 Have fun!
I’m a small percentage of Mí Kmaq and I’m mainly Anglo, but I’m celebrating with the indigenous to bring greater understanding and awareness of their plight.
I try to help Anglo’s understand the importance of their heritage and those of our closest ancestors. Many of us share the same blood, so get excited about your heritage and sho some respect for the First Families of our nation.

This was amazing, the best way to learn about cultures is hearing it from them. I'm almost on tears. All my love from here in Argentina, from a native williche descendant, proud of my patagonian indigenous ancestors 🌠
My great-grandmother was half Cherokee Indian. She was the Medicine Woman of our family. Family members and people from the neighborhood came to her when they were sick. She passed away when I was 14. It was after her death that family members came in from out of town and her sister that I met for the first time, taught us about our Cherokee Indian history. I thoroughly enjoyed this video. Thank you so much for sharing. The Natives of this "American" land are simply Beautiful indeed. 💖
The young boy at 1:45 gives me hope for the future
He is Noah from Chubby Cree 😁
Whenever I see these tik toks of native people practiving their culture, it makes me think that their entire livelihood could have almost been lost to history. Although, it makes me happy that these people still get to experience their beautiful culture, it almost makes me cry because there was a chance that they could have been wiped out entirely, but here they are living their lives how they want and not how society wants them to. My heart goes out to all of you guys, stay awesome. (*´˘`*)♡
As with our buffalos. Hoka!
Let's acknowledge all the indigenous tribes of North America both just the 5 established by the U.S. government. We are still here .... beautiful videos
One of the most simple phrases that holds so much truth and fact:
