This is soo INJUST to Native Americans i can't believe this. My heart goes out for you beautiful people from the other side of the world
The real american. And this time I am talking about the continent.
@Rosegold Banks harmony, harmony... Not quite, we've always had wars, and kingdoms taking over other kingdoms, tribe against tribe. But without white people interference claiming they discovered us, claiming this land as theirs.
America comes from amerigo Vespucci, why would you native western hemispherians want to call yourselves after an Italian man?
Imagine asking a native from a land to be a citizen of their own land
The more u learn the more u discover how messed up America is...
Well put.
My parents always said you can know your future if you don't know your past. America will never live up to its dream because we refuse to accept the truth.
That is why learning the true history of marginalized people, like Native Americans, is so important.
can we get more content like this plz.
@David Goeken if im not mistaken Lincoln hung 30 or so natives, for bogus reasons. To cover up the real reason. To get him elected again. Win over the ppl.
This hurts my soul. I was one of the last native given up for adoption by my parents who were 15,and 16 years old. My mom is Lakota Sioux, They can no longer do this without the permission of the tribe. So even if the parent relinquishes their rights, the child must still have been relinquished from the tribe as well. I feel Anchorless at sea sometimes but I realized I have so much more since I live off of the reservation and I feel guilt from that. Many of my people Live in rural conditions with no running water 💦 or electricity! we have the shortest life expectancy than any other nationality!!! because the conditions are just so rough!! I can offer my vote for my people if you can decide who you would like me to vote for. Maybe take a tally leave your comment down below!!! Sending love your way❤️
Every republican president has given a recession but this takes the cake 🎂
When will Americans learn ?
There needs to be a native American president. Then things will change.
Ramon Lomeli, Don't hold your breath. Think about the past five years.
I have faith that the natives will produce one 🙂
@@amandawilcox9638 I have faith that the natives will produce a child that will be a great leader one day🙂
We have two Native American women in congress. Highest we can get for now. Many folks wouldn’t vote for them.
Thank you for the knowledge If you are indigenous in my view it is must vote no matter who you support.. So many have fought hard to enforce that right...
As an Australian I find it very odd when watching political rallies that Christians are mentioned, black people are mentioned and Hispanic people are mentioned. Yet there is never any mention of indigenous Americans or the policies that will help them.
I want to thank you for posting this. I will be using this in my Government Class. Too many High School students are not aware of what has occurred to several cultures from the signing of the Constitution to today. Thank you.
We need more on Native Americans by Native Americans!!!
America owes the native Americans trillions in rent
@J D Well if you have such a big issue with modern day America why don't you stop using american devices and products and live in the wilderness like the natives did seeing as you have such an affinity with them and all
@@Matt-yz5hb most tech comes from Israel or some other foreign power. America stopped producing ingeneral decades ago if not longer. American tech businesses technically put the legos together but another country actually creates it. Yes, this includes Apple.
@@casono Er what? Silicon Valley?
@@Matt-yz5hb you’re full of it. You can’t read the history books backwards. The land is stolen. America stole the future of many peoples. It thrived because it stole, enslaved and killed for profit. Silicon Valley too.
You may like thinking America is better but really it’s just being run dry.
This is sad, and somehow a bit strange to digest as well, hearing the idea of Indian gain citizenship from America. It should be the other way around.
But would love to see more videos about this and awesome job on the info and pics!
That was tough to watch. Thank you for putting this together.
All of us that are not First Peoples should be ashamed of what our forefathers did. I am sick and tired of the "Empty land" idea. This was a continent of nations and peoples that were systemically destroyed by the conquerors.
there is only one race of people that have never been destroyed by conquerors
@steve119md whites when was the white race ever conquered? I would like that time in history please
Educate yourself and understand Natives fought Natives as long as Europeans fought Europeans when the colonists came over many tribes traded and fought with colonists so they could conquer other tribes with things Europeans brought over such as guns. This whole argument and idea that Natives were some sort of innocent little people who never did anything wrong is so outdated and used by the left in order to create a narrative that basically boils down to White=Bad Non white=Good.
If anything. Humans or the species In general is violent and chaotic but some races do it better and efficient then others in this planet
@@dopplerapples7307 Oh you mean like the Chinese who in the span of just 4 years 1958-1962 killed 45 million people under Mao Zedong?
I will totally vote for a future native american president!! Come on!!
Thank you. Stand tall .I'm a member of Caddo Nation
Native American people are strong and defiant to being kicked down so many times. When native American languages and culture no longer exists at all then my people have been truly conquered.
@John Connor indeed
Thank you! I loved learning about this topic from an Indigenous perspective! But I think this video really dishonored the African American woman's perspective. The 19th Amendment focused on selective voting rights for white American women but didn't eliminate the state laws that operated to keep Black Americans from the polls via poll taxes and literacy tests for another five decades! Throwing others under the bus to prove our point is always unkind.
God bless you!
You must have more videos In UA-cam that people will learn more
Wow...I did not know of this kind of history or even remember learning about this as I was growing up. Along with black history, Native American history events like this should be learned as well. Would it be a good idea if each Native American tribes had their own representatives in both House of Representatives and Senate or would that be unfair for other ethnicities? My thought is this way their voice can be heard more equally or is it fine just the way it is and they're voices are being heard equally already? I'll admit I am pretty ignorant of mostly what has happened and is happening to the Native American tribes, but I will be happy and grateful to learn. Though I do remember a few major historical events, but not many I'm afraid. If anyone has any links they would like to share to broaden my horizon, please do share.
A serious reminder of why the Supreme Court matters so much.
The indigenous people of every country should without concession or appealing deluded ideals to suppress them , the right to vote .
Wow. Interesting 🤔
Imagine that's NAmericans had to apply for citizenship. 😔
They are called Native Americans and they had/have to struggle so much for the right to vote ! An Absolute Disgrace !!
the indigenous perspective of the american indian groups voting rights in any election has never been a problem. just be knowledgeable about what each political parties doctrines encompasses before choosing one. don't let their empty promises of their pass performances cloud your judgements.
Really disgusting on how they treated the indigenous people of their own land....
I had no idea... wtf!!
Awesome --- I learned a few new things here! Thanks for the Upload! Go Reds---Push State! cheers
Bruh
I am native and I am registered to vote but I feel like due to our history and the birth of the US flag and stoled turtle island from native Americans and called it united states. I feel like voting does not matter. When I worked d.o.d you see a lot and that is when I realized my vote does not matter so why vote in a system built on corruption and still corrupt especially toward native Americans. Why would I feel the government would hear natives now but they just took and broke treaties with native tribes even today the educational system does not allow teachers to teach our truth of native American history. American history started with native Americans.
Wow ... and 'Muricans don't understand why nobody likes them.
“indigenous”? nope, they sure aren’t, no more than you and I
@CIA: Central Intelligence Agency lol actually no, they didn’t, whites and americans indians were the same race at one point, read a book
@@lionitist you make me lose brain cells
@CIA: Central Intelligence Agency and they conquered each other meaning the conquered the original indigenous people till they were conquered by themselves
@@lexqt1556 facts hurt huh
