    I am Prairie Flower Cynthia Ann Parker Griffith. My Mother & I were named Cynthia Ann after Cynthia AnnParker. I have always been called Prairie Flower. We are distant relatives on the Parker side. I have spent my life defending my name. Everyone seems to think it’s a hippie name even though I am too told to be from the hippie era. I would love to know more. I have heard so many conflicting accounts of Cynthia & Prairie Flower. Their relationship is fascinating to me because of the mother daughter cycle connection. Little is spoken about them except Cynthia dying of a broken heart after Prairie Flower’s death. Thanks for your video & time

    There are four key components that characterize Stockholm syndrome:
    A hostage's development of positive feelings towards the captor
    No previous relationship between hostage and captor
    A refusal by hostages to cooperate with police and other government authorities
    A hostage's belief in the humanity of the captor, ceasing to perceive them as a threat, when the victim holds the same values as the aggressor.

    Ich bin fasziniert von den First Nations von Amerika und hab schon viel über diese gelesen. Auch Quanah Parker ist mir bekannt, doch leider habe ich hier auf dem deutschen Markt noch nicht so viel über ihn gefunden. Leider kann ich kein englisch.
    Ich wünschte, dass die Geschichte der First Nations anders gelaufen wäre. Würdevoller und respektvoller gegenüber den Natives.

    Love Comanche/Texas history. Quannah became a celebrity of sorts in Texas in his later life after surrendering at Fort Sill(I think). He also became Cattle Rancher, who went broke giving to not only his people but anyone, white included who was in need. His immediate family was large due to the fact that Comanches took more than one wife so he had a lot his own people to care for. But if you read writings from state leaders who meet him over the years they all spoke of what a giving person he was. Seems hard to comprehend after the violence he did trying to save Comancheria and defending his peoples way of life, unless you read his own words "We are all one people, One Race" a great leader who brought his people into the 20th century. Definitely a 2-sided story with violence and brutality on both sides. Love Texas history. It's a shame that after all the years have past that we can't live by the words of Quannah Parker, "We are all one people, One race"

    I knew the story of Cynthia Parker and her family when I first saw Quannah Texas in the early 80s. Place reeked of history. I don't know what it's like there now but it's in West North Texas. Like not that far from Burkburnett... many blessings ya'll.

    Cynthia Parker's story is very sad. Captured as a young girl she became the wife of an important chief Peta Nocona. Her son Quahna rose to the rank of leader of the quahadi chief. She was again captured by the white people and told her husband and children had been killed. She was tied to a support pillar in a general store so people could look at her like an animal in a zoo. Her son Quahna would go on to be the leader of his band. Ranold McKenzie would destroy the Camache horses in Palo Duro Canyon. It is said Quanah owned 1500 head of horses making him the Bill Gates of Indigenous people. He later would charge cattlemen so much a head to drive cattle across his people's land. I think he was also able to legalize peyote for religious ceremonies.

      I am interested in history, not stories. She became a medicine woman (that could be false, IDK). I only read one book about Cynthia Ann Parker and it was written as a young adult novel called "Ride the Wind". A very good novel, indeed. The story was that their fort was raided by Comanche and, everyone was killed except for rachel, and the young boy and girl. The boy and girl were both "adopted". the aunt was tied to a stake and raped. That's the book...

    If I understand you correctly, you state that Rachel Plummer died while giving birth? I am currently reading the "The Rachel Plummer Narrative" and in it she is reunited with her family long enough to write her memoir of her captivity. Did I misunderstand you? Or is her story disputed by different historians? Appreciate your channel.
