    I am only a few hundred pages into your superb book.
    In this video you appear to attribute the savagery of the Sioux to all "Indians." Even Eastern Sioux were more pacific than Red Cloud's (Western) Oglagla Sioux according to your book.
    And it isn't as though Small Pox was a pleasant way to die either. Or starvation. Or simple humiliation.
    Genocide? Europeans never ever did that did they?
    We are all "Killer Ape," a fatally flawed species.

    Red Cloud was a peaceful man. That's why he won his "war". He took care of the women and children. He also had concerns about the Sisseton tribal unit. Little known fact. This came down as verbal tradition. He was a cousin to Sitting Bull. My birth Father, Marvin Campbell is a Vietnam vet buried on the Sisseton tribe. He is a Wind-Talker. He is buried with other people who deserve honor and dignity, but got none, because of race.

    I don't know how much my birth Father, Marvin Campbell who is half Sioux and a Red Cloud descendant and my stepdad both Vietnam Veterans fit in to this work of Miracle. Red Cloud is a Great Chief and a Great peace maker in the world. May his descendants find a way to reach out to see that the Black Hills is protected from those who want to destroy its natural resources. I work as Railroad driver for BNSF. I'm union. I only hope that I can drive again one day after a nasty car accident 5 years ago. Healthy now 👌 though. Going to school. Back on track. Let me clarify: I am driving. Class B provisional passenger endorsement. Just don't have the passengers yet because nobody has hired me yet and nobody wants to properly train me through school. Education is all I have at this point in time.

    Red Cloud's Folk by George E. Hyde was published in 1937. It is still without peer, and so well-written that modern historians seem dull by comparison. These gentlemen have added to the western archive but to get it right, absolutely right, one must read Hyde's book.

    These men’s ignorance regarding “the reasons why” behind Lakota traditions and fear of being eliminated by such a deceptive and conniving culture was why they did what they did.
    The Wašíču is the evil behind the world due to their greed and desire of power and rule.

    Very interesting and very well narrated. The expression "noble savage", used in all languages to refer to indigenous peoples all over the world is a myth. Nobility and savagery don't belong in the same sentence. I am glad you addressed this misused and out of place expression. My thinking is that it was often used out of guilt by those who had committed massacres and atrocities against indigenous people only to discover that in spite of their savagery they were very human. I could be wrong but it is such a contradiction with reality that it seems like an after thought.

I subsequently read your book to further my knowledge of Red Cloud, and Nathaniel Philbrick's 'The Last Stand' to further my knowledge of Sitting Bull.

      You guys are all a bunch of delusional crybabies if you have a problem with this description. Red Cloud once saved a man from drowning, only to scalp and kill him on shore. Was he condemned or punished for this? No, because it's how it was.
      The Civil War was brutal, imagine being torn apart by a lead ball that shatter bones and shreds your insides, but they never scalped or did anything cruel like natives did.
      If people did what natives did back then today, it would be a war-crime.

    I have been listening to Legends of the Old West by Chris Wimmer, Red Cloud’s War. It’s entirely relevant it seems to me.
    - And then the harassment started…Attacks happened almost on a daily basis.
    - The psychological toll inflicted on the [soldiers] was almost as bad as the physical toll…
    - Nothing seems to have ever been done about the attacks.
    “The white man made me a lot of promises but they only kept one. They promised to take my land and they took it.”
    Ep 4 - Red Cloud had been chipping away. I am reminded of today’s GOP chipping away, running off qualified or principled congressmen, and pledging to take away voting rights, abortion rights, Medicare and Social Security, and any other social safety programs…and by God they are going to do it.

    I think the myth of the 'Noble Savage' has been oversold by historians in terms of how pervasive it is in our culture, in their characteristic eagerness to overturn misconceptions about the past (not that I am in any way criticizing the authors of this excellent book for doing that). As far as I can tell, only a minority of people have ever believed the story that native Americans were inherently any more peaceful than anyone else, mostly members of the counterculture in the 1960s - 70s and a scattering of academics.
    I personally bought into the myth to some degree for a few years when I first started learning about natives, but further exposure quickly put paid to it. Interestingly, Hollywood, which had a role in starting the image of the Noble Savage, probably helped to dispel it with highly popular films such as Dances with Wolves and The Last of the Mohicans depicting brutal warfare between native tribes having been released 25 years ago now.

    • @thechallenger752

      Last of the Mohicans yeah, but not Dances with Wolves. It portrays them as peace-loving hippies who were victims to the white man and did no wrong.
