Oldest Native American footage ever

People call them savages, But all I see is people who lost everything to savagery.

Those feathers are earned. Not bought. Thats why the Chief is a respectable man.

Can you imagine how different the world would be if their culture wasn’t destroyed ... All respect 🙏🙏🙏

I am not Native American. When I was a child and we played 'cowboys and Indians, I was always 'Native American'. For some reason,even at that very young age, I always thought 'Native Americans' were cool. As I got older and began to read and learn about Native American life, culture and beliefs, that 'coolness' I felt as a young child, grew into honor and respect for Native Americans. I am 78 years old and I have pictures of Native Americans hanging on my wall. My feelings will never change.

One of the biggest tragedies in world history.

Cameras are the real time machines.... To see the past is an amazing thing .

as an indigenous person who was once ashamed of my culture because of stereotypes and racism, these comments warm my heart ♥️

Seeing them smile is just so amazing, whenever someone in an old film smiles it just becomes so much more human.

My dudes I am so grateful to be a native American in 2020, they haven't killed us off yet.

I’m a Native south American, it saddens me that I don’t know much about my own culture

Native Americans are great love and Respect From India 💕

I love these people. As I'm indigenous Australian. We fought hard for our land.

I've always been fascinated by the native Americans, I don't know why.

Watching this really hurts my heart, yet I am filled with so much love for my People. I have lived 3/4 of a Century, and I remember growing up on the Rez, listening to my "Hootsie" (Grandma) she was over 100 years old then, she died at 118 years old. She would tell us kids stories about seeing the first white man in her life, and how they used to see a wagon train going through their lands. Instead of what the movies portray, she said they would go down and walk beside the whites. She told of how sorry they felt for them, how skinny the little white kids were with hardly any clothes on, and how they would give them food to eat. Show them a easier way to travel through to California, and help them as much as they could. It was nothing like the Movies and Stories the Non-Indians told. It was mostly lies they told, about the Tribal Peoples actual feelings and what they did to help them. I can remember her saying how sorry she felt to see the little white kids barefooted and so skinny, walking along the way, and the stories of what happened. Some so sad, and the way they started sending in the Calvary Men to "force them" to move away. Some stories I don't like to even remember, and my own Father's stories are so sad too. The Tribal People were/are a real loving people, who like to laugh a lot and tell stories about funny things that happened. They like to tease each other and pull jokes on each other. The Non-Native People have hardly any true idea's about the Tribes actual ways, and their inner respect for the land and all living animal life. Today I know the plants, and flowers i can eat and use for medicines, and make tea to drink for different things your body needs. What to do for insect bites, cuts, and things like that. I learned from my Father mostly as I spent a lot of time with him as we worked our cows. He started Ranching when I was young enough to learn,and old enough to try and keep up with him. Today is not like the older times, it is almost another world. I have lived long enough to see the good and bad in people that I could not see before. My belief in our Creator God comes mostly from my Father, and my inner Faith is very deep. We know that there is only One Creator, and He made All Mankind. We knew this before the White Man came to the America's. I believe this is what gave the Tribal Peoples their Honor and Love of the Truth. And so today, I am not so worried about tomorrow or about the world. I will be happy when I am called into the Sky away from this world. Just my thoughts in watching this film.

I'm mexican and seeing this video makes me proud of my indigenous side. Although they were not specifically from that tribe, the Aztec too wore big feather hats and looked similar to them.

We feel your pain, your emotions and your silent message to the world. You are not forgotten and will never be forgotten. 🥺😔🙏

My Grandma use to tell me about our people back in the old days when she was a child. How she was mistreated when she went to white mans school. We are Onondaga from the Iroquois Nation.

I'm so proud to be born into such beautiful culture and I am glad to have a grandma to teach me my heritage. I'm part arikara and Chippewa. Both parents are part native American ❤️ ❤️

Their clothes, their hairstyles, their adornments, their facial features possessed so much character, they were truly the original rock stars.! I live in a small town in New England where many native tribes lived and wish I could go back 1000 then 3000, 5000, 8000 then 10,000 to witness their lives, so fascinating.

We’re still here people and we will be here for a long time
