- A lively, intelligent evening of storytelling, song, and language. Presenters include Linda Yamane (Rumsien Ohlone), Mike Mirelez (Desert Cahuilla), Ron Goode (North Fork Mono), Clarence Hostler (Hupa/Yurok/Karuk), and Charlie Thom (Karuk).
Supported in part by generous grants from the Fleishhacker Fund and the Consortium for the Arts at UC Berkeley
Charlie Thom is a treasure, and I feel blessed to sit at his feet and listen to a story a time or two...
Love you grandpa Charlie. Miss his voice and sense of humor.
Agreed! Nothing like seeing his smile when he’s coming out a sweat!
I used to go camping with charlie thom when I was younger, up in the marble mountains. we would ride in on my grandmothers horses and do sweat lodges and sing and dance up in the wilderness. It was very nice to hear him speak in this video, thanks for the memories.
You were very blessed to have those memories.
My family lost the Native culture as a result of catholicism, Irwindale, California.
My Native Roots are of the "Chumas-Tong-va " people of Southern California.
Watching many years after it was published over a morning coffee. Fascinating and informative, and entertaining. People. We are so diverse and yet so similiar.
Dedicated to my friend. Nobody took him seriously. He was a bird singer. He had a hard life. He was a nice man. He would have understood this.
He would approve this. He was Shivwits but his grandfather was Mojave . He would totally get this.
After his accident, he was blind. So he worked on his bird songs.
In our friendship, i was not able to ask him about his songs. I didn't want to be rude. I'm a gabacho.
My friend was a good man.
Mad respect for Mike, he is one of my favorites and they way he speaks for his ways is hard to do
This was fabulous. All of the participants were so remarkable. I especially enjoyed Charley Thom and wondered if he is related to the Thom family mentioned in 'In the Land Of The Grasshopper Song," written back in the early 1900s. There were Thoms in that book from Karuk country.
What a wonderful evening. Thank you for sharing.
💜 Thank you for having this online
My grandfather went to one of those "schools" when he was 12. He and his 5 brothers were tricked into going-their parents I mean... Any way, I am proud of my Karuk/Shasta heritage. I am trying to learn the Karuk language, I find it a difficult, but beautiful language. I love the regalia too. I find that the more I learn about the culture the more I love it. My father grew up with it, in it... This is a wonderful thing this video. Yootva.
Thank you, it is good to know that there are people working to recapture and sustain the history of our indigenous people. I have traveled through Cahuilla lands, the Anza and Thermal areas - so rich, thank you.

Good luck on Yosemite!!! Just saying.
Blessed are the Native people.
Just a thank you from a Native without a tribe. Family heritage from the Southern California area "Chumas-Tong-va"
Thank you so much for sharing; I learned a lot and it was very fascinating.
when I went to northern california I met someone from the Hupa tribe so I wanted to learn a little bit more about it... it's personal, you know not just a weird obscure fascination based off of nothing, although it's partly that. I was glad to find this. touched my heart.
🌹🌹 Beautiful Native & Red Race music & culture, true leaders of peace and power😘👍👍🌹🌹💖💞🎶🎧🎤🌄💛💛💛💛💛

These are the only ones who got into the video: 12:20 Mike Mirelez 45:10 Ron Goode 1:20:28 Charlie Thom
Jennifer Grove ya EXACTLY..wtf
The problem is they don't teach what happened to the CA Indians in schools. We had Indian massacre's here to . I find native Americans grinding stones sometimes and always wondered what happened to them tell I googled it.
Info nipped in the bud by the gov. I'm guessing. The numerous histories that do show are not pleasant, like the CA. native Ishi who had been discovered in 1910.
Should make more of these
Many more tribes to cover
Amazing!!
Fabulous
I respect your mom!
we'll be forever here in the American continent, our home
What happened to the Linda Yamani part? Completely skipped! Really?
Really cool video :)
Should try to see if there is an AI program that could help with their language reconstruction.
From one pole to the other
I miss you
It's Indigenous!
"Quicker is better than longer" lol I guess that prof. never heard of "NDN Time"! LOL
I wish they did. The native people get two pages in the inaccurate text books.
hehehe....well the word "america" is an italian word so we are not italian either, this land is "Turtle Island"(north america) and I us that as a way to teach people here that I am no american because this land has not changed for us here as we remember back over one million years.
america is actually the name of a Catholic priest that sailed with cristopher culumbus
America is named after Amerigo Vespucci, a map maker from Florence, Italy. He wasn't a priest and he never traveled with Columbus. He was just another arrogant European douchebag putting his name on stuff that wasn't his.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amerigo_Vespucci
There is a lot of missconception of the word America, there may have been similar european words, but It was the Conquistadors I believe who reported to the monarchy of spain that the Inca called the land Ameru: land of the feathered serpents.
Love the Historical fact= English is a foreign language...
Love the Historical fact =
English is a foreign language in the United States of America...
Petra Flores we look alike petrita
@scarierthantheIRS White people always tell us we need to be called Native Americans. My family and most other indigenous families have always referred to themselves as Indians and the recent political correctness of todays change society certainly won't change that.
Why have they whitened out my Ancestors from his- story. When Columbus landed on Plimus Rock.a dark skin native. And the Truth " Shall set you Free.
I don't need no one but GOD
You cannot, wear black, with imagery- fonts! As Indians!

Native American not Indian
just NATIVE. turtle island b4 America
@@dollybanks9080 you’re right
people believes indians came from asia same familia of the turkish .. ! ?? that is true .. with bones genetics and types showed turkish and us indians are relatives !?
Hmm? History is a lot more complex then mainstream school brainwashing is willing to tell. Genetics can not peice together everything, we need to listen to the people's stories and have spiritual love to receive a full picture.
The Hopi tell of a Hopi brother Pahana(white brother) who left their people to live in the land of the rising sun, and the Hopi were told he would return someday. The sun rises east, so the east is where Pahana traveled, and he was probably not "white" at first, but as he adapted and assimilated with the people of the east he changed...
Also we see Hebrew Yesraelai culture to a huge extent in the Americas, and it seems some of this carried into Mongolia too.
My theory:
It is to my understand that the South Americans migrated there from Eden, according to Sumerians, and had been there since before the flood (first race of man), and they survived four men and four women on a raft atop of the tallest mountain during the flood(Hopi and other flood stories resemble this). Then later the Semites began expeditions to a foreign land across the sea. The Phoenicians taught the Yesraelai to trade with the Land of Ophir, which was said to be in the ocean somewhere south and maybe west of India. Yesrael were not a sea bearing people, they were Nomadic Tent dwelling Medicine men, and warriors, with a huge Oral tradition of Creation. Under Adonai Davayd the nation of Tribes became Allies with Phoenicia, and His son Solomen had a Naval trade with Phoenicia. The Phoenicians and Yesraelai traveled to the legendary land of Gold on occasion. Many claim it was Shangrala Island south of India, but this theory does not explain how Hebrew customs settled in america, or how they retrieved so much Gold. Now peacocks certainly came from India, but that was just one of several riches that are said to have come from the Journey to Ophir. It was during the Assyrian war, conquer and captivity of Yesrael that lead to the exile of the 10 northern tribes, they scattered many areas of the world, a specific group in Esdras is said to have traveled to a Land where mankind never dwelt (or atleast that was the idea), and they had a mighty Seraph(fiery serpent) guide them across the Euphrates by parting the water, and it took them a year to travel to the said land.
Well we see in America there are two primary family lines, though many peoples have attempted or have entered the land throughout history. Firstly we see the Quaotl type languages towards south, and the more Hebrew languages northern. From south america through Mezoamerica to North America, we see traditions, Oral legends, culture and Phenotypes similar to that of Yesrael. North America that is the USA is where we see a stronger Cultural tie, and in the regions of the Bahamas and East coast there have been found Phoenician and other Hebrew artifacts, as well as a remembrance of the Hebrew Eloh or deity to behold. We also see through the Hopi with Pahana, and the culture in siberia and Mongolia, that the Hebrew culture seems to be even there, but not as fluent or strong as North America. I even heard a Mongolian Shaman pray to the "great spirit of Mount sion" and to sky father, the same spirit. They wear fringes, they pray to the spirit of four directions, and they care about mother earth, though not all "shaman" focus their worship to the great spirit unfortunately.
It makes me wonder if Anthropologists of the early 19th century purposely coined all tribal beliefs shaman by an agenda that contradicts reality. If one society believes there is Father sky and Mother Earth, and the great Holy spirit, and to give all love, then this is good. And if another society bows to the river and prays to the river god instead, and steals power from others, this is not the same at all... One is "Shaman" and one is not, but which one? This must have been an anthropological mistake, or deception to get grips of control on Native Religion?
Anyhow, what am I saying?
I am saying It is evident to me that Native americans are Original to South america since before the record, and that Yesrael came and assimilated their rich culture with an ancient people, and together in a land set apart, they flourished. It was the North American natives that may have assimilated with Yesraelai and migrated to Asia, settling in a foreign land, adapting the Turkik language, and became mongolian. Their people then assimilated with the people over in the east, and Asians such as Chinese, and Vietnamese, etc... were a result. Which essentially means that while Europeans have been conquering lands, and Israelites have been assimilating worldwide in the other bloodlines, so has the American people been blending into much of Asia and the Middle east.
Interesting huh? You will not hear that in history books. Culture does heavily suggest my theory, and I am not the only one to share much of this belief...
@@bassline5633 thank you, I want to learn more. Like why the ohlone people were depicted with afros, why did explorers say the people on the east coast of north America looked much like the ethiopians, why Lucia skull was found here, what are these olmec stone heads about? Sorry for grammatical errors.
the bird singer is clearly stoned.... no respect in my eyes. good on u for your teachings but you coolant wait until after for such big event...
And you came to this conclusion how exactly? That’s my cousin your disrespecting with your rude AF comment, which is in fact completely false. “Clearly” your just a person who likes to falsely label people as being something they aren’t on baseless facts and your own weird interpretation of their nervousness. He even stated he isn’t a public speaker and was nervous so how dense can you really be? Especially since he is now a very well known and respected lead singer in our communities and culture. You are a sad and ignorant person and you should be ashamed of yourself for saying such a thing and disrespecting my family and my culture.
