- This video is part of a set of interviews for the WoLakota Project.
www.wolakotaproject.org
“WoLakota” implies balance and coming together. The WoLakota project supports students in high-need schools, pairing trained mentor-teachers with new teachers and providing Courage to Teach circles to tend to the ʻheartsʼ of each. Mentors support the embedding of the Oceti Sakowin Essential Understandings (OSEU) into practice, complementing the Common Core. The OSEU address the achievement gap of American Indian students by embracing their identity, and promote cultural understanding among non-native students and teachers. Lakota Elder Dottie LeBeau states, “When we approach teaching with one worldview…we create systems of failure in our schools.”
WoLakota closes the circle into a system of understanding and success.
The WoLakota Project is a partnership between TIE and the SD Department of Education

When My Dad passed, a library went with him. 😥😢😭 Miss him so much🖤❤️💛💟
Thank you for sharing your father with the rest of us!! How much I would have loved to have been in his presence!!
You're and your generations are there to keep them alive...please do as much to preserve what you have. We are all losing our identity due to the whites and the so call modern civilization. Much love from India❤.
Not all whites
Thank You
I was born in 1952 impossible to be my fault yet I feel guilt for the savagery done to any and ALL native Americans.
We are not all guilty of such ugly thinking.
I always tell people my heart goes out to the Indian nation for the abuses of the government,
Sister Beautifully Bald Eagle I am SO Sorry you lost your Dad too. Sister Do you feel him watching over you like I do my Cherokee Dad sometimes?? Can you sometimes *Hear his Voice like I do Dads? It will be One Year Ago MAY 13. It’s a very fresh wound we were SO Close. I have no one to speak & sing Tsalagi with now. The elders gathered twice to pray for him. 🦅 🐺 they called him “Jack Son of Chiefs” then (humbled to tears) they sent him a blanket as he slowly crossed over. Mom is *Trying to stay strong. Married 65 yrs.
Tell me something sweet about your Father please & let us cling together. I/we did teach my 3 Cubs “our land” and our ways but sadly they showed no interest in learning our language. They chose Spanish as a secondary language instead. But at least they KNOW All About Our People and Our Land. The Blue Ridge Mtns. Please share something Sweet about your beloved Dad & I hope you Feel my Pure Sister ((Huggg)). N2
Well : named Princess Mustang Bushyhead… lovely name right? But Sister I’m a young 61 & I was named Mustang *Before the Ford Car lol. You’re in my prayers, OhitikahWin. 🥰🪶
Miss & Love You so Much Dad.
So wonderful that this is shared with all who wish to listen. What a wonderful gift.
Your Dad is a very wise man and his link to the old ways. Grateful that this is recorded for those who come after to know what really happened between Calvary and Sioux.
Girl, I could listen to your dad for days! TTYS ❤️
Thank you for the speach, greatings from germany/Denmark
I love to listen your father tell I could listen him for hours so very much interesting. Thank you from Finland.
Ex British Paratrooper here, I will always have an ear to hear the Lakota
AIRBORNE!
Really sad to see how we treated such a proud and dignified people who just wanted to continue with their way of life.
Grateful for this oral history from Chief Bald Eagle. He lived in two worlds-the time of his Grandfather White Bull and his time with Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse learning about his heritage as Lakota and the world of the White man. Chief Bald Eagle learned to live in modern world and still keep his heritage alive. Passing this on to all of us. He truly is a HERO especially in not being bitter for all that his ancestors went through and the miserable way they were all treated. He is someone to look up to. Thank you to all his family. We can learn so much from him❤️
...white people will live under dictatorship if Donald`s D-Day2.0 up ro 6th of Jan. will not run against them...its better to die than as to live like a slave... (thats also a spirit of the Teutones Tribe )...
hi j.kkk
dddwa2w
Who made him chief.
Please with your not being bitter bullshit. You people always want to run from your shame !!! What happened to his people should be in textbooks all over America. Genocide!
@@JodiMoenbeauty What a comment kkk?! Really? Are u serious?
What a privilege to have witness the conversation of his Grandfathers. ❤
It is our duty to listen to this man and his brothers and sisters of the First People. Their stories are so important that they should be taught in primary schools. Love Peace and Light
Sure Brother!Unfortunately the dirty system don't want to learn.They sure know to leave with Mother Earth and Father Sky(all the sources)....I,long time ear Them, with my heart!And i felt honored by learn their teachings.👍
If there is a justice, all those US citizen with an English name should go back in England, or just let natives lead the country.
Exactly! Isn't this beautiful? Their Legacy.
You’re right.
I think it’s wild that the same flag that killed his ancestors, he fought to defend in WW2. No disrespect intended. Nothing but respect.
common with the stockholm syndrome.
Lies were told. Thats whats great about the internet. Alot of information although we are restricted alot
My apologies I see after reading a few comments Bald Eagle his spirit has left his body. It was a honor to hear him speak
So glad that this was documented. A very trusted and honorable Lakota Elder.
Great story teller.native people were put on this earth as keepers of this planet.if we listen & obide by these rules we could live in a beautiful harmonious non polutted world.nature knows best.
So very grateful to elder David Bald Eagle for his Neither Wolf Nor Dog. -- from a grateful Old White Guy.
The fact this man is wearing that hat while reciting this story is so profound to me...
I am captivate by every word you say Sir! 👀
My best friend of 50 years the late Jean Black Elk who is the great great granddaughter of Black Elk. I miss her so much. We were called The Bookends because we were inseparable and when we were apart we were always looking for one another. I still look for you dear Jean. I hope you are having a wonderful time with the Sky People.
This was truly a deep spiritual video.
Omg! Jean is my sister-in-law!! I was holding her hand when she took her last breath!! Her triplets went outside to eat when she transitioned. I wiped her down with sage, cedar water as her cousin/brother Wesley instructed me to do. My oldest son is from her brother Frank who took his Journey 2yrs before her. They were close. She shared some stories of her friends from her past. Met her in 74. My son is 46!! What a small world 🌎 🤗🖤❤💛🤍🦅🐻🦋
Now this is a real American hero right here
He's Lakota not american.
@@duaneelliott5194 if he is Lakota that is the definition of ACTUAL American. What area is he indigenous too? Jesus fuck
Thank you. This man's eyes and voice transported me through time.
His eyes are blue. The native Americans in my family have brown. ?
@@davenorth8922 you need to know more about American Indians.. I knew the upper Cherokees were fair skinned, blueneyes and blonde hair. Someone aboved shared how her great grandma was fair and so was Chief ...
listening to the stories of the elders is so amazing .. this is how children should learn about history, through their stories of the past, not through books, where truth gets progressively distorted over years
Books are important though, very important. But you are totally right.
My grandmother was half🎉Choctaw .she passed way before I was born.but I had my aunt's to tell🎉me things.😅
Total respect for this man and veteran. Enjoyed hearing the story of past times. Thank you
Honor and respect
I'm Choctaw on my fathers side and French and Cherokee on my mother's side, m sister brother and I have feelings which tell us of danger or trouble. My brother who just happens to be mentally handicapped actually hears audible warnings when trouble is near. Once the voice said "they're coming" and he went out of the house in the middle of the night and hid out in the woods while some thugs came looking for him. He had known a couple of them but hadn't seen or thought of them for a couple years but that night he knew who the voice was warning him about.
I had a similar situation when I was in the military, a voice but not audible said "don't do it" but I understand that I was supposed to take a different path from other times. So I circled around and saw that a row of soldiers were laying prone with their weapons pointed towards where I would normally have been. So I continued on and went beyond the spot where I would have been and again I saw three men prone with guns pointed towards where I would have been. I've had other experiences but this one proved beyond a doubt for me that it wasn't a coincidence.
Peace and love, from Chief Woo. From the Creeks tribe out of Alabama. 🇲🇦🇲🇦
I still come and watch your videos, Grandfather.. I love you and miss you so much!
A great warrior in his own right. If you look he wears the paratroops insignia on his cap. I believe it has 1 jump star. and it you look at his mug it has the insignia of the 82nd Airborne Division.
He fought in Sicily and on Dday. He received the Silver star for actions in Sicily. He was with the 82nd during both engagements. Very attentive!
David Bald Eagle's stories are historical documents and need to be preserved.
The "original sin" of USA is the near anihilation of the indigenous people. It is extraordinary to me how little the indigenous people are acknowledged in politics or the media. Reparations need to be made to Indians as well as descendants of slaves.
WOW, descended from White Bull, who was a famed warrior from the Minneconjou tribe of the Lakota nation
Thank you for entrusting us the gift of real Lakota history.
What in honor to just have him tell on his own words About our Warrior Crazy Horse, and his Amazing knowledge from, the most beautiful First People of North America.
To day United States 🇺🇸
AHO to all of the North American Native American Tribe's from my people's Mayan Tribes in Their Guatemala 🇬🇹 territories.
His Words nourish my soul,
As well as mine
TRUER WORDS HAVE NEVER BEEN SAID.
YOU LOOK SO MUCH LIKE GRANDPA..
Fascinating. Real history no propaganda
I could listen for hours
I love the way The Interviewer allowed him to take his time to speak, I love this.. Im just imagining all of it. WOW!!
That's how the Elders speak on a daily basis.
Really loved his story,also David bald eagle is a handsome man.
Many thanks. For sharing your story,,,,,
Living testimony to history 💖
Bald Eagle reminds me of my Koro grandfather on my mothers side, a living archive of the past and a man of mana a special aura of compassion and pride handed down from his ancestors. He is a mentor a leader a warrior an elder who deserves so much respect, thank you We hear you have departed this world, may you join your for bearers as we acknowledge your presence which still honorably graces this life time we humbly look forward to meeting you again among our people in the land of our for fathers.
Thank you so much from Sweden! 💕
Priceless video w David Bald Eagle. I just wanna wrap my arms around him
Thanks for sharing this....amazing stories that should never be lost.
What an honor to listen to this Elder speak of the history of the great nation of the great people.
Thank you for your service 🙏
How amazing to hear the real way it happen nothing like the story tells of the older generation that actually heard it from one that was there how amazing thank you for this video 🙏🙏🙏🦊
Wow.....I would have loved to have met this man. RIP Sir.....
We could all take a few lessons about the old ways, listen to our elders, and take sage advice.
Blessed to be listening to real history. Thank you.
Sioux & Cheyenne did not lie, they spoke the truth even when opportunity presents itself if they told a lie. They would not.
Absolutely correct. I'm Sicangu Lakota. My aunt knew him n was trying to introduce me to him but didn't get the chance. What a Warrior who passed his knowledge on through this story of Warrior Society. Dog Soldiers were Cheyenne but Lakotas had Dog Soldiers too
CHIEF BALD EAGLE, WE WILL TELL FUTURE GENERATIONS ABOUT ONE'S LIKE U. A BRAVE MAN. A MAN OF DIGNITY, HONOR, PRIDE, RESPECT. A WARRIOR. THANK U 4 YOUR SERVICE 2 YOUR PEOPLE N THIS GRATEFUL NATION. WE R INDEBTED 2 YOU N YOUR SERVICE.
I found this great man to be supremely interesting. George Armstrong Custer was a coward who aspired to be President. This whole ordeal was a black mark in history. I admire this man for enduring and for his service to our nation. Great narrative.
Beautiful.....l could listen to these indian elders all day....everyday
We are not from India
I've listened to several stories told by elders, thanks to UA-cam. They are told without exaggeration, or boasting, or any type of embellishment. They are told simply with truth and modestly which makes them all the more compelling. I am grateful to hear them and I have learned much, and not just about Native American history, but how to reflect and ponder my own values.
This is true history.
Thank you for your history lesson, thank you for your military service and your combat jump is most impressive. Your generation returned from war, got a job, married, raised, a family and built this country. Thank you for your sacrifice that has given me the freedom I have enjoyed in this life.
Thank you, David Bald Eagle. This was so nice to hear. I know that Crazy Horse had visions of the future. The flag was one of them. He also foreseen automobiles and other things
So LOVE 💘 listening to Him tell his stories , WOULD have enjoyed knowing him, R. I. P. He was a walking encyclopedia on so many things!💖
They say when an elder dies, it is like a library burning down. So much was lost with Chief David, but at least we still have some of this here. Thank you sir.
...and even these wise 😘words cannot imaging THE OCEAN of 🥰SOUL❗💫
I am so appreciative that this wonderful elder, David Bald Eagle, took the time and effort to record this important oral history before he left this world. Thank you, too, to the producer(s) for taking the time and effort to record this important 1st person narrative! So wonderful to have this for future generations!
Wonder full story, this the memory of the great warior. But who will tolk abaut this story for my people the lacotah oyate after eyars. Who will keep the oral history haw the elders make this. Keep this importen story my people. Taishtapi shunkaha mi elow
It's crazy to me how they remember so well, it's amazing I can't remember two days ago lol.
A great Man!
Thank you for this. Chief Bald Eagle was a very special man.
Sorry but he wasn't a Chief. That would be in the 1800s that there were Chiefs. Not in this day n age
Wonderful to hear the memories of his ancestors an to show that no one should interfere in the life of others with rules and regulations that are meant for control and not to protect. assist or just be a good neighbor..
How wonderful that you had an elder to retell the stories of your ppl...and 2 keep the true history alive of the Lakota and the true stories...not ones written or told by non Lakota ppl.
Honored beyond words, to hear the TRUTH. Beautiful spirit💚THANK YOU🌷🙏
my greatest respect for this amazing man thank you R.I.P.
As I was saying,I had a Uncle that used to tell us to listen,I am going to tell you a True Story,that meant he was going to tell us something important that he not only expected us to retain but to also tell the next generation,to pass it along. So we could keep the True Story alive, this is known as our oral traditions. Our ancestors never wrote anything down it was recorded in our minds passed from generation to generation,no school houses,no books,no recordings,it was like this from talking and listening.
Thank you so much for sharing I loved listening to the true story,I truly miss listening to my elders that are all gone on now.I had a Uncle now
Thank you for that account. This is incredible.
I am honored to hear equally as I am honored to listen to learn from these passed-down, word-of-mouth accounts. Many thanks.
Thank you for your service sir. He reminds me of my father and the stories he would tell
Captivating. I could listen to these elders all day ❤️
Thank you so much for sharing this heritage with us!! I love talking with older people who talk about the old ways. Many thanks!!
Thank you, always love to listen to the elders.
To hear him speak transports you back to that time. Crazy Horse was something most unusual in this world.
I cant believe thats my great grandfather
You can tell he was a man of great wisdom. He was a descendant both proud and Noble people
Such an honorable man god bless you sir.
Absolutely Amazing!
RESPECT.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Nuestros rostros son iguales, cabello lacio y negro, color de piel, tenemos la misma sangre, raza indígena repartida por todo el continente americano, excepto que los norteamericanos no son indígenas, solo los de resguardo, mantenidos en áreas ancestrales. Estoy orgulloso de tener sangre Guarany Kaiowa en mis venas.
Many decades ago, in my homeland, England, we were told, according to Hollywood, that Custer died at the Little Big Horn, on a hill, surrounded by his wounded and dying troopers (Custer bravely protecting them of course) his two pearl handled revolvers in hand, firing until his bullets ran out. A little digging and research paints a slightly different picture, that the silly sod charged down a hill and was one of the first to fall, shot through the chest by a squaw. Now if you'll excuse me, I shall move to a respectful distance, and roar with laughter.
Thank you for this interview! It reaches deeply! My great grandmother was Cherokee full blod. Sadly, I never met her. My grandmother married an abusive alcoholic Scotsman. She divorced him after my dad and his brothers were young men. She finally married a good and kind man. My grandmother visited us only a few times. I was curious about having Cherokee blood, but never found out much about our family history, and so my curiosity remained unfulfilled. I read Black Elk Speaks several times over the years and derived much of great value from Black Elk’s writings. I’ve read Russell Means’ book: Where White Men Fear to Tread. Also, books about Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse. I had close friends in the Navajo nation, two special friends, Allen June and his wife Virginia, (PHD in psychology and matriarch of the Red Dirt Clan. Alan June was a Navajo code talker in the US Marines during World War Two! Mr. June told me that, before he left for the war, a red bird flew up to his face and kissed his head. He knew then that he would return safely from the war. My heart is with these good people always! Bless Bless!
Yeah right
❤ Wishing I could have known this Man ❤ Thanks for your services in the WW2 i think it's very sad what happened to our Ancestors I'm Saginaw Chippewa and I enjoy hearing about the past of our Ancestors it's so Sad i wish none of it would ever of happen.. ❤❤❤ Wishing much love this Great Man and his family ❤❤❤
Why isn't there more teaching of the Native American history in schools ? I really don't remember that much of it other than what you saw in movies or documentaries on it. I was born in Puerto Rico and for the last several years I've been reading up on the history of the Indigenous people of my country ( The Tainos) and what I found is that a DNA study found that 61% of all Puerto Ricans and roughly a third of Cubans and Dominicans have Native American mitochondrial DNA. I guess the Educators of this country ONLY want to teach American History and leave everything else out now including slavery and how it became part of American History. This is also HOW you see 'Black' Cubans, PR and Dominicans because of Christopher Columbus.
My friend, LeRoy Tyon, aka Thick Clown Horse, is the great grand nephew of Crazy Horse. He wrote a book called "The Unreleneted. The Untold Story of Crazy Horse"
Beautiful Man.. Chris. Toksa
AHO I AGREE TRUTH BE TOLD. MY OLDERS WENT THROW AND WE AMERCAIN NATIVES TRIBES STILL GOING THROW THIS LIFE.
"they all look the same" lol, but RIP David Bald Eagle
The Sioux were fortunate they faced Custer. Custer was reckless during his military career and paid for it. Being totally honest if it was my command there would not be any attack because of the women & children being there. If I had to battle the Sioux it would be on my terms or not at all. This man speaking is a hero and a beautiful man. LtCol USMC.
Halé kiyo hakoza 2:40 Sit there Grandson. 3:45 dōwáya scout. I’ve heard blonde hair is Custer 5:40 pay haskà tō.
He is such a wise man God bless you please keep telling your history for the younger generation ❤❤❤
What!!! Civilization runs off the original people then civilization begins asking questions!!!
