    Incredible. I am glad someone is covering Native American heritage dining. They do not get this coverage from mainstream media in the US. It's all about colonizer diets. What an amazing, unique piece. I am glad AJ took the time with this too..

      This is interesting to me because I would like to know the differences between Mexican food and Native American foods. Of course, I live in Arizona so tribes are different from tribes in other parts of the U S.

      ​@@ThomasitaTaylor Well, as a 1st born generation Mexican American, I actually thought the very same. The foods we all know of our Mexican common dishes are of course evolved. My family in the interior of Mx, were not wasteful as we are here in the States. Meshica, had so many tribes in the West Coast of that period, before the 7-8 States that are now, (Padre God be Praised) part of the States. No doubt, wild game, corn, wild herbs, wild veggies, were so different & prepared with health in mind. Herbs, bark, mud, certain leaf & tea's were used for medicinal purposes. I remember relatives still using clean mud with herbs to heal bug bites, allergic reactions to Bee's n I so wish I had paid better attention to what exactly was used. Peace be with us all 🙏. "Isa"

    One thing I love about Al Jazeera is the ethical integrity to speak truth to power around settler-colonialism and highlight decolonization not just with the ethnic cleansings and genocide of Palestinians by settlers and colonizers but also the situation in the so-called "Americas", and that the coverage is not just all doom and gloom but includes such positive, uplifting and forward thinking (and forward ACTING) coverage like this piece here.
    Keep up the good work, you're really setting a high watermark for journalism!

    • @disdoncable
      @disdoncable 7 місяців тому +5

      Surprisingly, Al Jazeera doesn't "speak truth to power" about the brutal modern-day slavery practiced by the Qatari regime (who propaganda arm Al Jazeera is) against South Asian and East Asian immigrant workers. Not to mention, the complete lack of coverage on the totalitarianism with which the nation of Qatar is run.
      They're quick to pick up on the issues in Western nations, though. Seems like it's easy to distract from Qatar's own human rights abuses by focusing on those of Western democracies.

      That’s the thing, you hear time and again: they didn’t own the land, they were caretakers and lived with the land. What I understand is they (many?) thought colonizers were nuts thinking they could “buy” the land.
      But i digress, now we know the damages colonialism causes, so it’s time to give the land back so we can all work together and heal it for all of our descendants.

Their are some foods that are similar but the food my mother and my grandmother generation eat is so much healthier. They eat a lot of the food grown their. My grandmother grew her own rice, had a garden, bananas and papaya. She raised chicken, pig and goat and then fished and used to things from the sea. Their life style is different as well. Seems more laid back.

I’ve always grieved at how Indigenous peoples have been treated, along with the other cultures around the world. The world cries out for your ways to be taught. I’ve hated the way white peoples acted at times.

It's very soft and delicious and taste wonderful on it's own or as a latte and is gentle on the stomach and teeth. Coffee is delicious but it's a wonder how the whole world is able to drink it almost daily. We lose diversity in our plants when we all try to eat the same way.

    As an American who loves their country; there are a number of historical things that do not make me proud, rather they bring great shame.
    Slavery, the genocide of the Native Tribes and their people's of America. Even those that survived we tried everything we could to erase their culture. Forcing them into reservations and into dependency, never providing enough for them to get on their own feet, encouraging alcoholism and other issues; but worst of all was forcing their kids to go to our churches to learn English out of a bible; a blatant attempt to erase their identity. I'm grateful to know our whole history and there's so much more but there's no point in bring it all up.
    I just want to say how happy I am to see restoration of their culture in any capacity. Using food is wise, everyone loves food and there's a lot of history, hopefully enough of that history survives to help usher in a rebirth of the native cultures. Obviously there were many nations, many groups, with many beliefs and opinions just like in Europe, Africa, or Asia but this is a wonderful start. Let's keep this snowball going down hill.

      I literally cannot fathom the idea of people not owning land, not arguing my view is better. I'm saying "huh, good point".

    Europe is not a country or a culture, it is a lot of different country's and much more cultures and there were colonization's in eastern Europe too. It went a bit different there because after a few century's it changed the view from what was lost too what it was gained.
    I grew up in a region with 4 different cultures , we spoke different languages and ate completely different dishes and lived in the same cities and regions.
    Sean is doing what should have been done one or two centuries ago, determining what foods a culture eats is one fundamental stone in their identity.
    I am just saying that in the past people everywhere ate tin food because it was convenient and cheap, and there were poor people everywhere in every country eating tin food. My father was an engineer and my mother worked in the development office of a car manufacturer and we kept two pigs in the back yard , one for Easter and one for Christmas. Everything was used up skin flesh and bone , pigs ears were the best part (it was a chewy-smokey snack ). There was nothing wasted and all was preserved in the freezer or smoked (ham, bacon, sausage). I don´t buy bananas because they are still an expensive fruit in my mind and my parents couldn´t afford to buy them except as Christmas gifts for us .
    In short, there were and still are poor people in Europe too, so stop with the "Eurocentric" buls%$$ , it is the same lin the US , it is not just California and New York.

      @user-bf3pc2qd9s I was in Ireland a few years ago and I loved the food. If I ever visit the USA i would probably rather eat at a restaurant like Seans. But there has to be of this restaurants because people are genuinely interested and would rather go to a restaurant run by a person from the native community than someone who has 2 dishes on the menu because it is hipp!

      ​@@MsNatiBug that's not what she's saying. She saying him having to eat tin and can food cuz it was free was something very common all over Europe and othe places. This content is design to make natives victims. They don't have to live on a rez but they want free stuff and money. There's alot of rich tribes that have gorgeous neighborhoods cuz they aren't corrupt and in ca we have some of the richest tribes cuz of gaming. But media only wants to show the poor me stories because they want people to hate white people. Hate America. Hate the west. It's propaganda.

      That's true, and consuming each part of the animal as Sean says was always and still is done in traditional Italian recipes for example. It is a matter of the antiquity of a cultural practice, it is not exclusive to native America. I would love to eat at Sean's restaurant if I go to the US, and I think it is what the US needs and has been lacking
