I enjoyed this post w/t exception of the presumptuous theory that captured Africans learned about farming from the plantations owners. African tribes on the Western Coast were mainly agricultural cultures long before the European planted his first seed in the earth.
He said freed slaves. Not captured Africans. His statement is correct because freed slaves in the U.S. gained agricultural experience from slavery since they never lived in Africa.
By right of conquest vikings did it to the english native tribes did it to other native tribes, conquered hunting grounds and claimed them… history is important
Because Indians ain’t have hair salons lol what you think a native look like after a couple days working hard. People wanna believe that the slaves was such a big part and just from todays views, where they at now they the first to forget they heritage, and now they wanna get recognized. Get outta here. I’m 100% Seminole and got family that grew up in the woods and they explain why we have our beliefs and why we don’t agree with logees or hudkess
Being born and raised in Naples FL I highly respect and love the Seminole culture. They are extremely tough people who have persevered through so much striff and their still here today. Amazing!
I’m a Floridian and am appalled at the way our Native Americans have been killed, abused, herded like cattle and used as sideshow attractions for the enjoyment of vacationers. On the other hand I am in awe of the resilience and ingenuity of The Seminole Tribe. Nothing pleases me more than to see them prosper tremendously from their gaming operations which are absolutely top notch. I have a difficult time accepting the justification that was stated at the end of this video that “without our treatment of The Seminoles they may have disappeared”. While there may be truth in the statement it is nonetheless sickening to hear those words.
It's not for the faint of heart 💀🐊🌴💯 along with the brutality of the Florida swamps comes the amazing beauty that is unparalleled by anywhere else on the planet I once heard said your mind is a place you can make hell out of heaven or heaven out of hell this is very much the mentality you have to possess to find the Florida swamp which I call home the most beautiful place in the world 🌎
There is a tribe in Coahuila, Mexico called the Mascogo - they are descendants of Seminoles and runaway slaves. They have a community in Musquiz. The Mexican government gave them sanctuary during the 1800s.
We're still here & Aboriginals, are not indians, slaves My father was Aucilla + I don't need a Hard Rock Cafe to know I'm a Native of Turtle Island in my heart & soul it can never be removed by colonizational citizenship .
There are African and Native alliances throught Louisiana also. As well as enemies that hunted each other. Some fought for the European colonist. They fought against the French and Spanish colonialism. Started maroon communities in the swamps around New Orleans. We intermingled and intermingled. Many documented stories about these occurrences.
My grandmother was a Seminole! 1500 white men to 100 natives and they fought for 3 years! This is amazing. My grandma was born in 1934. Omg! Why am i just knowing this! My grandma could sew her ass off too. She used to make clothes. 🙏🏾
Is there anyones history the so called hebrew israelites are not trying to steal? It's like their trying to monopolize on all nationalities except their own. Leave other people's heritage alone! Please!
I was told by my aunt before she passed away that my family were descendants of the Creek Indians. I was amazed! Thank you for this video! Tears of happiness I had knowing that they were able after a long while be successful in business, yes they did survive!
To say that all the Indians in Florida came to be known as Seminoles is an overly broad statement. Muscogee-speaking and Euchee-speaking Creeks stayed behind in the panhandle after all three Creek Wars, although their cultural distinctiveness became weaker over time. It is possible there were still a few holdouts in the early 20th century, near the Shoal River.
I grew up with these very fine people and respect them and culture very much. The government tried to stick it to them Just like all the Native Americans. These Great people got the government good. I would love to see these folks tell the the government we have enough money to buy the the whole state of Florida now get the hell out. Just to see how that feel..Huh?????
America was built on thievery. That's the truth and nothing but the truth. Guess what, it's still going on today. Too many democrats in a particular area, officials gerrymander to their liking. Don't like election results attempt to steal an election.
I wish we could have gotten the story from more of the Seminole people. There is tremendous satisfaction knowing they now thrive as a contemporary tribal group.
This stories bogus, my family is Seminole. How could 100 fight off thousands for years. All those Black folk from down south are still Seminole my family. They literally act as if all the Black Seminole disappeared. Lies.
what do you mean "how could 100 fight off thousands of years̠", literally who said that? also, the documentary talks about Seminoles in the past and present tenses, where do they suggest they "all disappeared"? imght be projecting a little bit.
Loving this one thanks for sharing very information blessed love to all knowledge is power hopefully everyone pays attention keep up the good work 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Allowing a culture to be tax free and operate casinos is not in my opinion a non-conqured people. I believe the term would be more like assimilated into the depravity of the subjectors. Bought and paid for people is just another form of slavery.
This is crazy because I just did an ancestry DNA test and I found that I have cousins in Haiti and in Mexico. All lineages of my family come "black" slaves and I even still live in the town that my ancestors settled in right after slavery. Some of us intermarried with natives.
Well Ancestry DNA made that money. And they have your DNA. Even though many of us already knew these type companies are just for the money, like your holiday celebrations! My son used the same people in hope of getting his DNA analyzed and what a big lie they told him. Their so called finding were that he was 37% white and my husband and I are both so called BLACK!

They decided what to tell you. Think about it! How can these crooks tell anyone about who or what people you related to just by a little spittle? IN AFRICA? PLEASE! My son was excited to learn by these liars that he was 37% white and had full knowledge that both of his parents were so called black. YOU AND OTHERS THAT USES THESE TYPE HAS BEEN DUKED OUT OF YOUR MONEY that’s all with what they decided to label you as. 98% of so called blacks in this continent of America are indigenous aborigines niiji.

Find out who you are from your grandma or great grandmother. They knows exactly who you are. Who told you who you are?
Seminoles in Florida continue to be abused by the state government. If that's not enough, non-native Americans heap abuse on them in public and private. I live in Florida. I see this happen all the time.
Learning about the 1715 treasure shipwrecks off the east coast and J.Dickinsons "adventures" with the Ais Indians brought me full circle to learn about the Seminole Tribe and the 3 Seminole wars.. What a story. I had no idea they had a hand in the building of Alligator Alley.. I'm glad in the end they became billionaires they deserve every single penny.
That's ridiculous.. Our ancestors came from West and Central Africa. Th Black people in the West Indies came from Africa through the Trans Atlantic Slave Trade as well.
The word Siminole is a variation of our Creek word Simi Noli which means lives with animals or Ranchers. Some of the things said in this video is not exactly true, but as usual it fits the white mans narrative concerning our people. Osceola is the spanish name for Ocilla, his true Creek name. It means land of two springs where he was born in now days the town of Ocilla, Ga. The Siminole people are Creek people that moved to Fla after the Creek civil war.
"Seminole" is a corruption of the word "cimarron", which means "run away". Africans didnt join the Seminoles, they were the Seminoles. Over time creek indians adopted the name "Seminoles"
Exactly..The truth aren't in those people history story films..The new day ones are not from the original cream of the crops/ the true tribes.Im so tired of the lies..
Large numbers of Native people and Escaped Previously Enslaved people lived together in the Everglades mixing freely. Europeans didn't like large numbers of free non-whites, bought land from the Spanish, and expelled and killed and went on with stealing and taking the land.
Yamasee were not runaway slaves. They were a tribe from what is now south carolina and georgia. The Yamasee wars preceded the Seminole wars. Yamasee were Black Indian tribe
THANK U .... SEMINOLE TRIBES FOR ALL YOU HAVE GIVEN.... Southeast Tuscorara nation thanks you so much.... LOVE LIVE STILL ALIVE AFTER ALL THIS TIME ❤️😍
He is not being truthful . The word Seminole means runaway in referring to the black who were enslaved, who ran to the south (Florida ) instead of falling the north star (underground railroad). This is why we must do our own research.
The Spaniards didn't wipe anyone out. Those people are still here,but there color changed by nature. The wiping out is an illusion. Some of those Spaniards are about as dark skinned now as the Seminoles we're back then.
I have 2 generations of family burried in ortona in the same burrial grounds Billy Bowlegs, on some high ground. Born and raised floridian with much respect for our natives.
I have ancestors who settled in Florida during the 1800s and into the early 1900s. It bothers me so much to think that they most likely engaged in some less than savory behavior regarding the native people. My family made it as far south as Charlotte County, so they weren't directly involved in this video's events, but they still had worked their way south from Georgia on lands that natives lived on. 😑
I just started to listen to this and had to stop to text something i remembered from a child my father told me, we are CHOCTAW and they got moved in the 1800's to CHOCTAW national territory and lost thier home land because of a treaty that was dishonored "DANCING RABBIT" my father told me that when the Spaniards came to concor them they rode up on horses, met the indigenous people on the bank of some water, word was they said "we are here to capture you and enslave you "is what it sounded like, anyway the tribe was in thier canoes and the chief stood up and said "you will have to come in the water to get us" and the chief turned and paddled away soo the invaders tryied to follow them, but after the horses waded out soo far maybe some gators showed up and took care of them, the chief and his tribe escaped because they calmly turrned and left over the waters,apparently ey concored no one but escaped thier would be oppressers, i don't know anything about the tribes in florida but he told the story with excitment soo i wondered if it really happened, i live in Louisiana and we have gators here because we have swamps and they thrive, its hot and steamy here some times and sometimes very cold with snow and ice, the worst is the flooding, but we clearly have 4 seasons and springtime is beautiful, we joke about the gators pulling santa in his pireaux, a flat boat with only one person to sit in, we have an accsent farther down south because they speak french, the food is good and my dad would say you can eat everything here if you starve to death its your own fault, glad to know they escsped when the spaniards came, we have tribes here to and they should have done the same, we got soo many gators, everyone can have a suit case, purse, boots, belt,hat band, and wallet and never miss a gator, like you would think you could get the population down but guess not, we would have invited them into the water also.
My great great grandfather was native American Indian from the Outer Banks of North Carolina. The Ocokee tribe from Ocracoke. They were driven off the island by white settlers. They migrated west to the Great Smokie Mountains where they eventually were accepted by the Cherokee tribe. My grandfather was half Cherokee half Ocokee. I am disgusted at how our native people all over this country are still treated so unfairly!
My Great-Grandfather was 100% Seminole native and i didn't know that Seminole natives are Black native Americans, they settled here thousands of years ago when they first migrated as Moors FACTS
My great great grandfather was one of the first Whites allowed to settle on the Seminole land. He was a moonshiner, and became good friends with several chiefs. We had a beautiful collection of headdress, sacred pipes, and many beautiful clothes that were given to my family in trade. Several years back, the collection was donated back to the Seminole nation. What they didn't want was given to the University of Florida.
I watched a 60 Minutes (I believe) piece where the chief of the Seminole tribe received 60mil from the US government and immediately kicked all of the Black Seminoles out so they would have a bigger cut for themselves, taking "Indian giving" to a whole new level 😉 I wonder how robbing those people of what they fought for has worked out for them in the long run🤔
Henry Perrine was murdered by Calusas- so they hung around for a long time. The Timucua lived among The Spanish and travelled with them when they evacuated Florida for Cuba after British conquest
Well it has been told that these semionals Indians were actually native dark skinned people (black) mixed with people from a French colony which made the Indian... It's also said that majority of enslaved black skin people were already here on this land when the whites arrived and a specific number of slaves actually came from Africa... It's not to far fetched.. we've always been lied to
Bartram's , Travels in Florida 1774-1776 is an excellent resource on Creek Indian culture and agricultural practices . I myself am decescend from both the Seminoles (Tigertail's band) and the white colonists who fought against them .
No mention of the other reason for the Seminole Wars of the free Blacks and the runaway Blacks that lived among them and fought with them that the plantation owners wanted them returned.. to bondage. This story is very slanted in its interpretation!
There were more than one race of Indian Nubian(not only runaway slaves brought up from south America) descent and Asian descent but nobody likes to talk about that fact. Remember the Olmecs.
African were brought to America because of their agricultural and technical skills. It was Africans who built the rice fields on the South Carolina coast. Their farming skills were instrumental in supplying food to the Indians. On their first trip to Washington, it was Abraham who acted as translator with the officials. So Don't dismiss the contribution of the Africans and the Yamasee to the survival of the Indians.

That's why they don't need to be trying to tell a fake history about this land.
He said freed slaves. Not captured Africans. His statement is correct because freed slaves in the U.S. gained agricultural experience from slavery since they never lived in Africa.
How can natives be "squatters with no rights to the land"? That fight should be revisited.
You have no right to the land either unless you CAN PROVE your native american
Aboriginal title to the land belongs to those who were here before the Europeans
By right of conquest vikings did it to the english native tribes did it to other native tribes, conquered hunting grounds and claimed them… history is important
Just out of interest why do the earliest pictures show dark skinned curly hair and now they are the opposite?

We had a beautiful collection of headdress, sacred pipes, and many beautiful clothes that were given to my family in trade. Several years back, the collection was donated back to the Seminole nation. What they didn't want was given to the University of Florida.
The trail of tears. 😪
A resilient & beautiful people! 💚
But dont mess with them!👊
Osciola is the man. He is my kind of person for sure. I sympathize with him and everybody around him.
Seminole means runaway Seminole Wars or Gullah Wars was a war waged by Black Americans against slavery for over 100 years.
i loev this story
I watched a 60 Minutes (I believe) piece where the chief of the Seminole tribe received 60mil from the US government and immediately kicked all of the Black Seminoles out so they would have a bigger cut for themselves, taking "Indian giving" to a whole new level 😉
I wonder how robbing those people of what they fought for has worked out for them in the long run🤔
Seen that piece also. 🤷
The Chicora hid in the swamps too.
Henry Perrine was murdered by Calusas- so they hung around for a long time. The Timucua lived among The Spanish and travelled with them when they evacuated Florida for Cuba after British conquest
20:20 there's no mistake that she made her quote at that exact time that is fate
Well it has been told that these semionals Indians were actually native dark skinned people (black) mixed with people from a French colony which made the Indian... It's also said that majority of enslaved black skin people were already here on this land when the whites arrived and a specific number of slaves actually came from Africa... It's not to far fetched.. we've always been lied to
Name meaning
To me any native is family ❤
Heavy
Colonizers have a hard time knowing what happen here, BEFORE they invaded.
Watching this pissed me off so bad!!!!!!
Bartram's , Travels in Florida 1774-1776 is an excellent resource on Creek Indian culture and agricultural practices . I myself am decescend from both the Seminoles (Tigertail's band) and the white colonists who fought against them .
Now truth be told.
No matter the situation, we as humans will coexist.
No mention of the other reason for the Seminole Wars of the free Blacks and the runaway Blacks that lived among them and fought with them that the plantation owners wanted them returned.. to bondage. This story is very slanted in its interpretation!
Offering reservations to someone on there own land. Him heap big lies. As usual their skin has been lightened.
Colonization at its best 😒 smh
There were more than one race of Indian Nubian(not only runaway slaves brought up from south America) descent and Asian descent but nobody likes to talk about that fact. Remember the Olmecs.
Shhh.. they not ready for that type of convo.
12 tribes
None of which happen to be in the United States.
Yes across the four corners of the 🌎

African were brought to America because of their agricultural and technical skills. It was Africans who built the rice fields on the South Carolina coast. Their farming skills were instrumental in supplying food to the Indians. On their first trip to Washington, it was Abraham who acted as translator with the officials. So Don't dismiss the contribution of the Africans and the Yamasee to the survival of the Indians.
You guys really need to show the real people not want to be me
Thank you for the information.
A bit "white" in outlook, but oh well...
I find it to be biased against Whites. Amazing how perspectives can vary!
Hello Linda! How are you doing? I hope you are fine and staying safe??
It should be biased against Anglos because they did the land grabbing thru war.
