      I get the feeling this is also the same here in Mexico. We learn about the Spanish (Occupation by the Arabs, Reconquista, the Catholic Kings), and the history of Mexico before the Colony is really brushed aside. I don't know how much is Eurocentrism, and how much is actual lack of information.

      Quanah Parker is taught in Texas, but our Indigenous history is still lacking, both in terms of education and historical records (Coahuiltecan?). Sadly, it’s much the same for our pre-American history too.

      I wonder if it depends on where in the US you are? In Upstate New York the Iroquois Confederacy/Six Nations was/is a pretty important part of the curriculum in probably 4th-12th grade.
      It could always be better though.

      So while killing of the buffalo was cruel, it was necessary to stop the Comanche, who were crueler beyond repute. The territory they held was because of the vicious attacks they used to conquer and preserve from others, including other American Indians. No doubt the sin the US committed against American Indians is awful, though the cruelty of the Comanche makes it hard to show them grace. They practiced torture for the sake of torture, no doubt people can adapt and change. Though the old Comanche were the enemies of anyone.

      one way to support the preservation is to support the current indigenous communities in your area! They are working incredibly hard to not only keep their traditions alive but resurrect old traditions that they were forced to abandon due to the American governments forcible assimilation attempts. Not only that but many indigenous practices may help us save the environment because many of the first nations lived by keeping the natural world in balance (the wild fire prevention brush burnings in the west coast for one, the farming techniques of the east coast nations are another). We have a lot to learn from them!

    I keep reading comments claiming that this isn't discussed in American public schools. No. ONLY the bad is nowadays discussed in public schools. Not the good at all including the push toward slavery from the beginning or as just window dressing.

    Peta was killed during the offensive where Quanah and his brother fled and his mother and sister captured. Until his dying day, Quanah denied his father was even there in order to protect his legacy…because it was a total failure on the part of the great chief. People don’t talk about that because of Quanah’s denial, but the death of Peta played a massive role in the Comanches’ ability to fight the war against the whites.

  • @freeman7079
    @freeman7079 3 роки тому

    It’s nermernuh, not numuny. Not sure why you guys couldn’t just google that or reference one of the many books about Quanah.
    The history of the transition from Nermernuh to (what we call) Comanche is really incredible and worth its own video.

    Great lesson! But, one correction, I think! I may be wrong but weren't these buffaloes you are taking about bisons really? Or am I wrong?

    • @miro.georgiev97
      @miro.georgiev97 4 роки тому

      The words are often used interchangeably in American English. Technically, it'd be more correct to call them bisons, but buffalo is not entirely incorrect. You know how a square is a rectangle, but a rectangle is not a square? Same principle: A bison is a kind of buffalo, but not all buffalo are bisons.

      @miro.georgiev97 4 роки тому +4

      @@ramitouhami4912 The Mongols were primarily shepherds, not cattle herders. Furthermore, bison and cattle are only a few steps removed from each other genetically and behaviorally, so it very well could have been possible for the Comanche to domesticate them and "advance" to the same nomadic pastoralism for which the Mongols were so famous.
