    When asked about changes over the last 15 years, the ladies mentioned suicides increasing due to the introduction of TVs which increased depression because villagers saw what other people had and what villagers didn’t… that was some heavy stuff to listen to.

    As a Native woman from Kewa Pueblo, New Mexico, these ladies are the type of ladies that bring so much strength and knowledge to our own communities. I loved them like they were my aunties. What a delightful way of connecting with them out in nature and especially the wonderful seasonal task that many of our tribes do like picking fruits and plants that help us. You’re doing a fantastic job Peter, thank you on this beautiful video. Send those ladies our love from us Native ladies here in NM. ♥️🙏♥️♥️♥️

    I lived up in Alaska for a few years in my 20s, wonderful place with wonderful people. One summer I worked in a fly-in village up north. I’ll never forget one day a little, old native woman came down the river in her boat, walked in to the general store where I was working and tried to buy a bunch of liquor. I wasn’t allowed to sell it to her because she was from the dry village down the river. I’ve never felt so horrible in my life, I felt almost racist, telling this older woman I couldn’t sell her the liquor. I just kept telling myself it was her village that made the rules and it was to help keep the population of that village healthy. Drinking and drugs were definitely a big problem up there and that was over 10 years ago, I can’t imagine what it’s like now.

    amazing! we need to learn from indigenous eduction. You should consider doing stories on the indigenous people of Canada (i.e. remote communities in british columbia). They have beautiful and tragic stories to tell.

    16:11 "Let them talk. They don't know what they're talking about." This wisdom can apply to so many people in different places, it's the best way. These women are wonderful.

    One of the best stories that is little known. Tyonek is an Alaskan village. "Tyonek" means Little Chief. They fought the government with law and won large settlements that other American Natives followed. Our first settlement was 1966. Later we won rights for Alaskan Subsistence, funded the beginning of the Alaska Federation of Natives and wrote it's bylaws.

    So great to hear their stories and learn about a life lived very differently than mine. And as her story at the very end indicates, much more to their stories that the bit that they shared!
