MR. Trudell hit the nail on the head. This program is 6000 years old. Isn't about time to revolt against money and end capitalism. So we can stay Human!
I listen to John Trudell, Sherri Mitchell and Winona Laduke every day to erase the "imprinting" thats been going on for thousands of years. By doing that my Spiritual Resonance has been growing and expanding beyond anything i could imagine
I met this very wise and caring man when I was in an occupation of federal land in MN. He deeply inspired me with his innate leadership and quiet strength. He is indeed the finest human being I've ever been lucky enough to encounter. and e has been a most eloquent teacher for all of humanity, not just us Indians. I belong to the American Indian Movement, not the Native American Movement. I am proud to be an Indian. Everyone born in this country is a native American but not everyone is lucky enough to be an Indian.
@@cindytomato We were lucky to know about him when he was still alive. I learned about him when I learned about the occupation of Alcatraz. Then, I learned about AIM too and Leonard Peltier. This country seems to despise the best parts of it.
I live on the Duck Valley Indian Reservation, my moms from the Fort Mcdermitt Indian Reservation.. My family fought for treaties out here in Nevada in the early 70’s.. then AIM came & did the Longest Walk.. All in all, I will always stick up for John. I am a sanctioned member of AIM today & we are fighting the Thacker Pass Lithium Mine in our ancestral homelands!

The trick is to go against everything the evil empire is all about, not all indigenous cultures devalue themselves, in fact quite the opposite, some have managed to survive in spite of it (extremely hard as it is) nevertheless still have & so Never devalue ourselves, we need to value our own identity, nurture it & thrive inspite of the evil. The Western system is very evil yes we know, it was prophesied to fall & it is falling regardless of everything, indigenous cultures will remain in the end & that’s a beautiful thing. Never get sucked in to the manipulative vortex of this evil system, there’s nothing in it but destruction & death, the Indigenous way of life is about life & thriving in our world, in our universe, which we all will. Western rubbish is out, it can’t sustain itself anywhere, it’s parasitic in nature, there’s no life energy there. It sucks off of every living entity such as our planet, our universe, our indigenous peoples & other peoples for its survival, eventually it will kill itself anyway and that’s a good thing to know it will die. Every other culture will survive all this evil in the end & thrive again xxx it’s already written in the stars
They've cleverly gone after the shadow in all four peoples, hit our weak spots where the dragon has no armouring: Reds - reserved/natural decay w assistance provided Whites - liberty/introspection knows no bounds Yellow - order/communism Blacks - physicality/violence Just what I see, trying to understand to move forward which will mean returning to our roots since forward atm = death to all humanity.

I agree. In modern times I also like an American environmental philosopher called Derrick Jensen. he might be more politically motivated but much of his words when he talks more from a philosophical viewpoint on the problems of civilisation and so on is also really great stuff and has got me thinking more than once in new ways.
It may seem like that for those who had the ancestral knowledge stolen. The things he is saying are very simple, it just takes a lot of explaining to help the listeners get their foundation of understanding back
This is one of my favorite videos of John, he was most definitely on the spot, he spoke his mind and yes you may have heard him on stage reciting, but in this instance it was just all him live and direct and he handled it beautifully. I felt uncomfortable when he felt uncomfortable. An incredible human being! We need a multitude of John Trudells on this planet in every country.
I wish I knew about him early. He speaks so much truth and wisdom. We need to get back to Native ways to save ourselves and the planet and stop Invincible from a place of fear.❤
I wanted you to read my comment this is a wise man right here. I should know, I religously listened to KLOS impact program featuring Frank Sontag Monday mornings from midnight to --- cant remember but perhaps 4-5 am? Anyway, Frank Sontag who was a major seeker of truth that was a universal type and not catholic dogma (which he grew up with and hated) which he said was forced down his throat. Got major sexual vibes from the comment but whatever. Anyway, he had John Trudell on and I even taped the convo on some maxwell audio tapes and must have them somewhere strewn about. John always seemed like a very focused and extremely tragic figure on account of losing his three children and wife. I mean this would kill anybody, this is one of the most greek tradgedy like things I've heard of in my entire life and it would make anyone go crazy. I remember him mentioning to frank sontag that the experienced made him go crazy for a while and how thrilling and chilling it was to hear that. Truly a badass mofo, john trudell is a real hunter gatherer like me. TBH I picked up my hunting and gathering creed and worldview after anthropology class un pasadena city college circa '96 after I read about the !kung tribe and also reading the book nisa. I decided while all this tech is cool and whatever nothing will beat looking your people in the eye or butt....and just living in a very high trust society where all is family and amongst that you have all the food you need to live. Also one works 4-5 hrs per day. I mean yeah I always loved hunting and gathering idea of human assemblage ever since that cultural anthropology class from way back when. Anyway, humans are going to keep drunkenly stumbling forward, we may nuke ourselves or not (we prepared for it by playing the stalker PC games) and ultimately all will be revealed or not when we die. My bro from way back when I was in 3rd grade showed me this movie at his house after school and ever since then I had a real soft spot for american indians ("the people" as john would have wanted me to utter it) and a majestic movie featuring south american indians called the emerald forest. All you tards that are not cool GENX like me need to be told of this movie and then watch it. It's great, a white boy gets lost among the Yanomami (or similar tribe) and enjoys that sweet juicy latina booty until the end of days because jaguars in the forest does seem like a superior lifestyle. Love you my homo sapiens, take care. ps - I know this was a very meandering message but I really love and respect this boy here Trudell and wanted to write some mad scribblings for his soul. I wanted to edit that I spoke to his road manager while a 15 year old boy in Stanton CA trying to order his tribal voice tapes. His road manager was so cool he mailed me all the stuff for free and said I could pay him later, on the honor system. I love John Trudell, his music (which I listend to tons like i listen to pink floyd or dead can dance) and he reverberates and affects us still.
It shouldn't hurt, just learn from it. I guess thats what he means in his words about us feeling vicitmized and powerless, we are powerful as a nation of people for starters, the point is getting there. And it is crazy to see how everything happened and he knew all along just as some of us knew deep down within ourselves that sone shit was going to happen to civilization. Even bill Bill Gates predicted microbes being the next adversity. We just need to use own intelligence. I get what he's saying and for right now we do feel powerless because most of us are to caught up with our lives and bills and work. But history did show that everytime we have leaders step in they are always assassinated. Only way to fix a system is to be in it. So educate your children and have them go further then we did in our lives.
Dear John… what a true elder and wisdom holder … way above and deeper than the average pay grade …. Thank you spiritual Brother … inspired by the Dreaming, from the Dreamtime … story teller and warrior of the Tjukurrpa and Creator …
The fact that he is so humble shows his intelligence and awesomeness.... His humble way says everything, for me anyway. I have tears in my eyes just from that alone....

@@wildmike85 Hell no! But you know what happens to truth-tellers, I may as well have been crucified. Life ruined. No one wants to hear about it from me. I love humanity but sometimes I kinda hate people. Since, I've just been trying to survive until the mass wakening.
In rediscovering ourselves and using our intelligence, we can become a part of evolution and not be victims of the few. May we enter 2024 understanding our own value.
"Protecting the planet is our spiritual responsibility." So true! Real spirituality is found within our connection to creation and the earth ... but too many people are trapped within the authority-based top-down hierarchical structures of religion.
Pity he got that wrong, like so many who still believe the heliocentric Big Bang cosmology is our reality, John wasn’t as woke as he thought he was, pity really because he’s bang on about most of the stuff he talked about
I myself don't believe in man made "religion" I believe in God (The Great Spirit, Alah whatever you me call Him/Her) I believe we are related & we must reunite for loves sake.
@@skyjust828 the only problem I have with the creator part is that who created this creator It’s a legitimate question to ask, and then you ask and who created the creator who created that creator and so on, maybe it’s always been this way, but that doesn’t even make sense, something had to have put it all here It a conundrum for sure, I’m of the thinking it was created, we just have no concept of how he , she, and all this came about, this place certainly is a mind bleeeeeeeep
@@andrewcalvert2801 😂😂🤣🤣 yeppers!!! That just goes back to the age old question "which came 1st the chicken or the egg?" & how do you get a man without a woman? ( or vise versa🤔) unanswerable questions all. Like I said, forget those questions if just for loves sake 💋🤗 lol
"... then we outnumber them. It's just a matter of us getting to that point, where we recognize our own value. We're in a system that has devalued us... and see the trick of the devaluing is that it got us to devalue ourselves."
No one has devalued you. That's impossible. You can only devalue yourselves, and you do so every time you open your mouths and babble like the ignorant, superstitious savages you were a thousand years ago.
WOW! Don't know how I ended up here watching this man's interview but I sure appreciate the Divine Guidance that directed me. Truth Bearer! John Trudell it would have been an honor to have personally known you. Light Bearer! You've changed my whole perception. Thank you sir. Highest Respect.🇯🇲 RIP

What honesty! What truth! I belive everything that you said comes from the great spirit. I was 6 years old once. Surprisingly enough at that age I decided to figure out what Human was up to. The adult's were always arguing about nothing. The news on TV always promises more on the story later but later never gets here. At that age I decided I was going to figure out what they were up to. After 52 years of trying I gave up! Then it happened. I had a epiphany. All of a sudden I was getting answers to questions I never knew existed. "How in the Universe could this happen? I think now I belive understand. Im Scottish, not Indigenous. I have never been through the spiritual training of the Indigenous Americans, but some how at that time I stopped thinking with my human brain, and my spirit took over. Our spirits are directly connected to the Universe. Thats why when we miss speak it questions us as to how we could say such a thing. When we begin using our spirit to reason with that is the point where we become intelligent. Most Europeans never experience this. What Im saying is this. If you really want to understand this existance correctly . Then you need to ask the Indigenous people for training. We all need to learn what the Indigenous peoples have known forever.
I have both Indeginous and European ancestry. I understand what you mean. For me it's like being caught in between two different worlds. We become truly human when we commune with the Great Spirit.
Celts and Native Americans have much more in common than you know.... Check it out.... Found in ancient churches are pictures of tobacco and corn in Scotland... How did corn and tobacco end up in Scotland.....
Greetings and salute to you wise and beautiful ancestor thank you for loving us thank you for your guidance your wisdom your discernment we are still here...maat hotep... the daughters meeting at Big Momma's House see you there
An enlightened man, encouraging others to find their enlightened selves, thank you for helping me to understand my own power, I hope to inspire others like you have ❤

My personal political mentor.I was at a cafe of a roundtable of women years ago in San Francisco...in the Haight Asbury. John Trudell sat there with a big black hat and never said a word ...just listening to women. THAT was a real man.A Genuine Human Being and a true warrior. His words and music will live within n my heart forevermore. Rest in Power John Trudell.

"Erases the memory from the human being about being a human being." He's right on...talking about what some of us are just now waking up to. We are so much more powerful than we believe...that's exactly what "they" don't want us to wake up to! It's time to become sovereign with regards to our intuition, our beliefs, our intelligence, our observations, and our God given common sense. It's time to stop being small and insignificant, giving our power away so others feel better and bigger. It's time to wake up to the fact that we do have a voice, there is truth in your words and it needs to be spoken and heard. OMG he knows absolutely what's going on. Please step up to what you know is for the good of all peoples. Our playing small no longer serves any purpose. Hold the light so others will see. Be the light that brings peace, unconditional love, and most of all...compassion in action. Thank you John...I thank you.
Do you still believe like John did that we live on a globe, if so you need to look at it with this intuition and common sense you talk of, the globe is a lie, hard to believe hey, check it out for yourself using a critically thinking mind
@@andrewcalvert2801 Thankyou for this comment. I don't know this guy, I've never heard of him before, but I will now look him up. I am fully aware of what he is speaking about, yet I've come to realize "They" use people to tell us what they know we already know by now. And want it told "Their way" the globe is ONE example. Truth... to draw one in, a few lies in between. Imho. Also all the knowledge we all have learned, when we try to spread the truth, some or most look at us like we are crazy! And THEY KNEW THIS WOULD HAPPEN. And I think they truly laugh at us for it. But let them idc. Also not only to make us look NUTS but to Devide & Conquer! from our loved ones and people we share Truth with.
I am the sixth generation of the "Takes the Shield Tiospaye". Oglala Lakota from the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. It is very encouraging to have the message of a great man and to have the intelligence of the understanding of a better tomorrow. I understand his message completely!
Thank you for sharing this. The elders are so important in finding direction. It's not a matter of politics, it's not a matter of whether or not when you agree or disagree, it's just a matter of listening and understanding how their wisdom relates to where we are that we can find direction. Thank you again, so much, for sharing this. I am preparing to start vlogging regularly on my channel and I intend on bringing native voices out of the obscure corner that we have been pushed into: not just Native American voices, but the voices of our ancient Native European elders, my momma's side, whose wisdom still resonates True to this day, and is pushed into obscurity. We get caught up so much in history, and forget the wisdom of our elders; all too often focusing on criticizing them for their imperfections rather than honoring the best part of themselves which they work so hard to pass on to us, their prosperity. Recently this criticism has been hyped up regarding the foundations of the United States, but I look and listen oh, and I see a beautiful collaboration of modern Western natural law philosophy and Native American natural law philosophy, which brought this country into being and has misunderstood because the core, the center, has been ignored. Like the various native peoples of the respective continents, the truth about the founding of this country has been pushed Into Obscurity where is the spirit is concerned. Because of this we have ignored the the Divine natural law and continue to be sucked into the okie doke as the Elite continue to hijack everything we set out to do. I have watched good ideas get hijacked through politicization time and time again throughout my 57 years. Our lives are not about ourselves our lives are about our relationship with existence. All My Relations
Incredible, wow what a genius truthful beautiful handsome human he is.Love these humans on earth who talk truth and live life based on spiritual responsibility.True Visionary, his message spot on, use intelligence and think.Don't just believe.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

We traveled thru duck valley reservation last year. We had fry bread and shot around some basketball at the hoop at the fry bread stand. We did not know we were at the place of his families tragedy. So I now say, please, John and family those hoops were for you. As we are european ancestry I just want you to know that your words have enlightened us, encouraged us and inspired us. Long live your wisdom and long live the rock people of duck valley. I think John may be on that hill now.

I could listen to John 24/7/365! Many comments state he was ahead of his time. I believe he was right on time. The world wasn't ready to hear truths and certainly not the US government. I quote him quite often in my writings, and I hope I am worthy enough to engage with him on the Spirit Road, when my transition occurs.
killed off to prevent spread of truth to people with more in common who upon joining forces WOULD BE ABLE TO CHANGE STATUS QUO. ie; percieved as danger to "business as usual" .
I appreciate you so very much John Trudell. I witnessed Thomas Dambo this summer come from Europe and make an interactive art installation of wooden trolls made of trash from our area and salvaged trees from a road work project. Him and his crew made art and am spreading a message of hope and human work to help the future. His message is being witnessed and people are coming from far and wide to witness these trolls. They are here to help us tiny humans. It's a fun way with a lesson. I'm amazed by the gentle way of bringing people together and I witnessed something that makes me very hopeful for all our futures. Thank you for your wisdom and words and strength to stand up and keep speaking ❤❤

John used truth to help help his brothers and sisters, in fact he did so to help all peoples face hard truths. His spirit lives on.
They've cleverly gone after the shadow in all four peoples, hit our weak spots where the dragon has no armouring:
Reds - reserved/natural decay w assistance provided
Whites - liberty/introspection knows no bounds
Yellow - order/communism
Blacks - physicality/violence
Just what I see, trying to understand to move forward which will mean returning to our roots since forward atm = death to all humanity.
I'm thinking air, earth, fire, water and personal embodiment of the 4 winds✌✨🎶
Beautiful human being and a great Soul. His words are more and more becoming reality even to those who refuse to see it.
Lightyears ahead of his time. His words are needed now more than ever.
Sadly YES!
I agree. In modern times I also like an American environmental philosopher called Derrick Jensen. he might be more politically motivated but much of his words when he talks more from a philosophical viewpoint on the problems of civilisation and so on is also really great stuff and has got me thinking more than once in new ways.
Lightyears ahead with lightyears of tribal wisdom behind him

I wanted you to read my comment
this is a wise man right here. I should know, I religously listened to KLOS impact program featuring Frank Sontag Monday mornings from midnight to --- cant remember but perhaps 4-5 am? Anyway, Frank Sontag who was a major seeker of truth that was a universal type and not catholic dogma (which he grew up with and hated) which he said was forced down his throat. Got major sexual vibes from the comment but whatever. Anyway, he had John Trudell on and I even taped the convo on some maxwell audio tapes and must have them somewhere strewn about. John always seemed like a very focused and extremely tragic figure on account of losing his three children and wife. I mean this would kill anybody, this is one of the most greek tradgedy like things I've heard of in my entire life and it would make anyone go crazy. I remember him mentioning to frank sontag that the experienced made him go crazy for a while and how thrilling and chilling it was to hear that. Truly a badass mofo, john trudell is a real hunter gatherer like me. TBH I picked up my hunting and gathering creed and worldview after anthropology class un pasadena city college circa '96 after I read about the !kung tribe and also reading the book nisa. I decided while all this tech is cool and whatever nothing will beat looking your people in the eye or butt....and just living in a very high trust society where all is family and amongst that you have all the food you need to live. Also one works 4-5 hrs per day. I mean yeah I always loved hunting and gathering idea of human assemblage ever since that cultural anthropology class from way back when.
Anyway, humans are going to keep drunkenly stumbling forward, we may nuke ourselves or not (we prepared for it by playing the stalker PC games) and ultimately all will be revealed or not when we die.
My bro from way back when I was in 3rd grade showed me this movie at his house after school and ever since then I had a real soft spot for american indians ("the people" as john would have wanted me to utter it) and a majestic movie featuring south american indians called the emerald forest. All you tards that are not cool GENX like me need to be told of this movie and then watch it. It's great, a white boy gets lost among the Yanomami (or similar tribe) and enjoys that sweet juicy latina booty until the end of days because jaguars in the forest does seem like a superior lifestyle. Love you my homo sapiens, take care.
ps - I know this was a very meandering message but I really love and respect this boy here Trudell and wanted to write some mad scribblings for his soul. I wanted to edit that I spoke to his road manager while a 15 year old boy in Stanton CA trying to order his tribal voice tapes. His road manager was so cool he mailed me all the stuff for free and said I could pay him later, on the honor system. I love John Trudell, his music (which I listend to tons like i listen to pink floyd or dead can dance) and he reverberates and affects us still.
RIP, John Trudell. I shall carry your wisdom to the winds, so that those who are keen to the spirits soar.

Lovely! I agree with this because I can't say any better.
♥️
I was just introduced to him.....the book of truth opens up.
@@veganvocalist4782 Thank you for being vegan! ♥
This is so powerful. The speech…not by power and might, but by spirit.
Greatest mind and voice of our time in my experience. He makes so much sense it hurts.
I so agree with you summation here Baharat
I love hearing truth spoken so cleary & concisely!
It hurts, but it is very freeing
@@gllarocque haha , ok troll patrol... out taking stupid nonsense to fetch attention again?
It shouldn't hurt, just learn from it. I guess thats what he means in his words about us feeling vicitmized and powerless, we are powerful as a nation of people for starters, the point is getting there. And it is crazy to see how everything happened and he knew all along just as some of us knew deep down within ourselves that sone shit was going to happen to civilization. Even bill Bill Gates predicted microbes being the next adversity. We just need to use own intelligence. I get what he's saying and for right now we do feel powerless because most of us are to caught up with our lives and bills and work. But history did show that everytime we have leaders step in they are always assassinated. Only way to fix a system is to be in it. So educate your children and have them go further then we did in our lives.
Dear John… what a true elder and wisdom holder … way above and deeper than the average pay grade …. Thank you spiritual Brother … inspired by the Dreaming, from the Dreamtime … story teller and warrior of the Tjukurrpa and Creator …
I miss John Trudell ... the older I get the more I realize how good he was ... respect! ✌🏽😎🇺🇸
That's usually when clarity comes. Good
I miss him when I Rant and Roll!!
It feels like I'm still in the angry stage of grieving him walking on SO SOON, because the world needs his wisdom so desperately...
He worked both sides of fame and fortune...But still a wise person.
I love his honesty. He's unconcerned with his ego being preened and just speaks truly.
The fact that he is so humble shows his intelligence and awesomeness.... His humble way says everything, for me anyway. I have tears in my eyes just from that alone....

An Awesome human being, an admirable example that one should aspire to emulate
Been waiting decades for people to wake up and see this!
So you stayed silent?
@@wildmike85 Hell no! But you know what happens to truth-tellers, I may as well have been crucified. Life ruined. No one wants to hear about it from me. I love humanity but sometimes I kinda hate people. Since, I've just been trying to survive until the mass wakening.
In rediscovering ourselves and using our intelligence, we can become a part of evolution and not be victims of the few. May we enter 2024 understanding our own value.
"Protecting the planet is our spiritual responsibility."
So true! Real spirituality is found within our connection to creation and the earth ... but too many people are trapped within the authority-based top-down hierarchical structures of religion.
Pity he got that wrong, like so many who still believe the heliocentric Big Bang cosmology is our reality, John wasn’t as woke as he thought he was, pity really because he’s bang on about most of the stuff he talked about
I myself don't believe in man made "religion" I believe in God (The Great Spirit, Alah whatever you me call Him/Her) I believe we are related & we must reunite for loves sake.
@@skyjust828 the only problem I have with the creator part is that who created this creator
It’s a legitimate question to ask, and then you ask and who created the creator who created that creator and so on, maybe it’s always been this way, but that doesn’t even make sense, something had to have put it all here
It a conundrum for sure, I’m of the thinking it was created, we just have no concept of how he , she, and all this came about, this place certainly is a mind bleeeeeeeep
@@andrewcalvert2801 😂😂🤣🤣 yeppers!!! That just goes back to the age old question "which came 1st the chicken or the egg?" & how do you get a man without a woman? ( or vise versa🤔) unanswerable questions all. Like I said, forget those questions if just for loves sake 💋🤗 lol
"... then we outnumber them. It's just a matter of us getting to that point, where we recognize our own value. We're in a system that has devalued us... and see the trick of the devaluing is that it got us to devalue ourselves."
No one has devalued you. That's impossible. You can only devalue yourselves, and you do so every time you open your mouths and babble like the ignorant, superstitious savages you were a thousand years ago.
OUR POWER IS UNITING WITH ONE ANOTHER IN EVERY WAY POSSIBLE.
BAR NONE.
WOW!
Don't know how I ended up here watching this man's interview but I sure appreciate the Divine Guidance that directed me. Truth Bearer!
John Trudell it would have been an honor to have personally known you. Light Bearer! You've changed my whole perception.
Thank you sir. Highest Respect.🇯🇲 RIP
I came upon this...stirred my memory of going and hearing him speak 💔💔💔 evergreen..up in Oregon... university 🙏🙏🦋
I wish every man was wise like him
Or at least inspired by him
if they were he would not be relevant and would not need to talk.
QuuenQuuenly, I wanted you to read my memories ofJohn Trudell, I hope I dont sound like a narcissist :)
this is a wise man right here. I should know, I religously listened to KLOS impact program featuring Frank Sontag Monday mornings from midnight to --- cant remember but perhaps 4-5 am? Anyway, Frank Sontag who was a major seeker of truth that was a universal type and not catholic dogma (which he grew up with and hated) which he said was forced down his throat. Got major sexual vibes from the comment but whatever. Anyway, he had John Trudell on and I even taped the convo on some maxwell audio tapes and must have them somewhere strewn about. John always seemed like a very focused and extremely tragic figure on account of losing his three children and wife. I mean this would kill anybody, this is one of the most greek tradgedy like things I've heard of in my entire life and it would make anyone go crazy. I remember him mentioning to frank sontag that the experienced made him go crazy for a while and how thrilling and chilling it was to hear that. Truly a badass mofo, john trudell is a real hunter gatherer like me. TBH I picked up my hunting and gathering creed and worldview after anthropology class un pasadena city college circa '96 after I read about the !kung tribe and also reading the book nisa. I decided while all this tech is cool and whatever nothing will beat looking your people in the eye or butt....and just living in a very high trust society where all is family and amongst that you have all the food you need to live. Also one works 4-5 hrs per day. I mean yeah I always loved hunting and gathering idea of human assemblage ever since that cultural anthropology class from way back when.
Anyway, humans are going to keep drunkenly stumbling forward, we may nuke ourselves or not (we prepared for it by playing the stalker PC games) and ultimately all will be revealed or not when we die.

"Think more, believe less" So true now brother.
What a great mind. I by chance ran across this. May he live on with his words, principles, and life lessons.
A true legend on n off the Rez. Peace koda. Wopila. A’ho

Us truthers out here today standing on this mans shoulders. AHEAD of his time, my mind is blown. He was 20 years out in front of this thing.
What honesty! What truth! I belive everything that you said comes from the great spirit.
I was 6 years old once. Surprisingly enough at that age I decided to figure out what Human was up to. The adult's were always arguing about nothing. The news on TV always promises more on the story later but later never gets here. At that age I decided I was going to figure out what they were up to. After 52 years of trying I gave up!
Then it happened. I had a epiphany.
All of a sudden I was getting answers to questions I never knew existed. "How in the Universe could this happen?
I think now I belive understand. Im Scottish, not Indigenous. I have never been through the spiritual training of the Indigenous Americans, but some how at that time I stopped thinking with my human brain, and my spirit took over. Our spirits are directly connected to the Universe. Thats why when we miss speak it questions us as to how we could say such a thing. When we begin using our spirit to reason with that is the point where we become intelligent. Most Europeans never experience this.
What Im saying is this. If you really want to understand this existance correctly . Then you need to ask the Indigenous people for training. We all need to learn what the Indigenous peoples have known forever.
I have both Indeginous and European ancestry. I understand what you mean. For me it's like being caught in between two different worlds. We become truly human when we commune with the Great Spirit.
Celts and Native Americans have much more in common than you know.... Check it out.... Found in ancient churches are pictures of tobacco and corn in Scotland... How did corn and tobacco end up in Scotland.....
Before the last Ice Age or the one before?@@DeeDee-nn4ff
In other videos you can find John talking about the indigenous tribes of Europe who were brutalized into forgetting who they are too,…
Everything John says is so relevant to me this is how I think I'm not someone you can control I'm a free spirit and I know something ain't right!
John Trudell was a very human person. He came and helped a sand painting here. Also Vine Deloria and crowdog. All love aho
Absolutely blown away. What a loss but thankful there are his videos & writings still.
Greetings and salute to you wise and beautiful ancestor thank you for loving us thank you for your guidance your wisdom your discernment we are still here...maat hotep... the daughters meeting at Big Momma's House see you there
An enlightened man, encouraging others to find their enlightened selves, thank you for helping me to understand my own power, I hope to inspire others like you have ❤
RIP ma Man...I hope more Brothers & Sisters are Inspired...and take the Torch

My personal political mentor.I was at a cafe of a roundtable of women years ago in San Francisco...in the Haight Asbury. John Trudell sat there with a big black hat and never said a word ...just listening to women. THAT was a real man.A Genuine Human Being and a true warrior. His words and music will live within n my heart forevermore. Rest in Power John Trudell.
John you wanted the best for us thank you❤️
Great word from a great man speaking from his heart.
Pure genius. What we need more of.

"Erases the memory from the human being about being a human being." He's right on...talking about what some of us are just now waking up to. We are so much more powerful than we believe...that's exactly what "they" don't want us to wake up to!
It's time to become sovereign with regards to our intuition, our beliefs, our intelligence, our observations, and our God given common sense. It's time to stop being small and insignificant, giving our power away so others feel better and bigger. It's time to wake up to the fact that we do have a voice, there is truth in your words and it needs to be spoken and heard. OMG he knows absolutely what's going on. Please step up to what you know is for the good of all peoples. Our playing small no longer serves any purpose. Hold the light so others will see. Be the light that brings peace, unconditional love, and most of all...compassion in action. Thank you John...I thank you.
Do you still believe like John did that we live on a globe, if so you need to look at it with this intuition and common sense you talk of, the globe is a lie, hard to believe hey, check it out for yourself using a critically thinking mind
@@andrewcalvert2801 Thankyou for this comment. I don't know this guy, I've never heard of him before, but I will now look him up. I am fully aware of what he is speaking about, yet I've come to realize "They" use people to tell us what they know we already know by now. And want it told "Their way" the globe is ONE example. Truth... to draw one in, a few lies in between. Imho. Also all the knowledge we all have learned, when we try to spread the truth, some or most look at us like we are crazy! And THEY KNEW THIS WOULD HAPPEN. And I think they truly laugh at us for it. But let them idc. Also not only to make us look NUTS but to Devide & Conquer! from our loved ones and people we share Truth with.
@@michelleantonette9345 The water of life...Will remain level.
Love and Light to everyone. John changed my vision longtime ago. I Love him. 💙
Wow. We need more Wise Elders in John’s vein in the public sphere. Great interview.
O'ki❤ legendary
I am the sixth generation of the "Takes the Shield Tiospaye". Oglala Lakota from the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. It is very encouraging to have the message of a great man and to have the intelligence of the understanding of a better tomorrow. I understand his message completely!
My Teacher, My Mentor
Great man, speaks truth to power.
So humble, and spiritually aware. ✌️💚
Thank you, John for your extreme intelligent and knowledgeable words. May you Rest in Peace..❤
Miss u Brother
Thank you for the information
So glad this is still there for us to go back to needed more now then ever thanks John you will be missed such wisdom
LEGENDARY!! John Trudell, RIP! I will help carry your legacy.
Remember this from when he was alive, how spot on his perspective. So now.
i cant believe its been 5 years well we shall continue his work.
"Think more believe less"🇺🇸ty John🇺🇸
Wise words 💚 we are the change
A SPIRITUAL RESPONSIBILITY!!!! TRUTH🙏THANK YOU CREATOR, AND JOHN FOR YOUR FAITH, TO BE FEARLESS
Thank you for sharing this. The elders are so important in finding direction. It's not a matter of politics, it's not a matter of whether or not when you agree or disagree, it's just a matter of listening and understanding how their wisdom relates to where we are that we can find direction.
Thank you again, so much, for sharing this. I am preparing to start vlogging regularly on my channel and I intend on bringing native voices out of the obscure corner that we have been pushed into: not just Native American voices, but the voices of our ancient Native European elders, my momma's side, whose wisdom still resonates True to this day, and is pushed into obscurity.
We get caught up so much in history, and forget the wisdom of our elders; all too often focusing on criticizing them for their imperfections rather than honoring the best part of themselves which they work so hard to pass on to us, their prosperity. Recently this criticism has been hyped up regarding the foundations of the United States, but I look and listen oh, and I see a beautiful collaboration of modern Western natural law philosophy and Native American natural law philosophy, which brought this country into being and has misunderstood because the core, the center, has been ignored.
Like the various native peoples of the respective continents, the truth about the founding of this country has been pushed Into Obscurity where is the spirit is concerned. Because of this we have ignored the the Divine natural law and continue to be sucked into the okie doke as the Elite continue to hijack everything we set out to do. I have watched good ideas get hijacked through politicization time and time again throughout my 57 years.
Our lives are not about ourselves our lives are about our relationship with existence.
All My Relations
Well said
Incredible, wow what a genius truthful beautiful handsome human he is.Love these humans on earth who talk truth and live life based on spiritual responsibility.True Visionary, his message spot on, use intelligence and think.Don't just believe.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Found this conversation by watching Nahko Bear and Medicine for the People. Grateful for these thoughts and perspectives.

every human being is a raindrop.and when enough of the raindrops become clear and coherent they then become the power of the storm. john trudell thank you brothers and sisters.
We traveled thru duck valley reservation last year. We had fry bread and shot around some basketball at the hoop at the fry bread stand.
We did not know we were at the place of his families tragedy. So I now say, please, John and family those hoops were for you.
As we are european ancestry I just want you to know that your words have enlightened us, encouraged us and inspired us. Long live your wisdom and long live the rock people of duck valley. I think John may be on that hill now.
You can't even spell "through", but you expect people to listen to you?
Happy Birthday, dear teacher.
Exactly we all have these abilities to see and know...we just have to seek it and we will find it.

Awesome interview.
Intelligence x 100
Reality x 100
Human Beings x 100
I could listen to John 24/7/365! Many comments state he was ahead of his time. I believe he was right on time. The world wasn't ready to hear truths and certainly not the US government. I quote him quite often in my writings, and I hope I am worthy enough to engage with him on the Spirit Road, when my transition occurs.
He's message only needs to be heard once, Then he whom heard it...Should put into practice, and hopefully carry it forth.
"Think more. Believe less." 🐾
OUR GREATEST LEADERS LIKE HIM AND MANY OTHERS HAVE ALWAYS DIED TOO YOUNG...
True.
killed off to prevent spread of truth
to people with more in common who upon joining forces WOULD
BE ABLE TO CHANGE STATUS QUO.
ie; percieved as danger to "business as usual" .
So many wise voices going unheard.
Hello Lynette, how are you doing today, how’s everything doing?
Much love to you John.
Wow. Thank you for taking the moment to speak these truths. What a powerful human being. Truth. Finally
Thank the idea of looking from the outside in ,I lost my twin brother at twenty my road led me here thank you
Wopila grandfather John - Thank you
I appreciate you so very much John Trudell.
I witnessed Thomas Dambo this summer come from Europe and make an interactive art installation of wooden trolls made of trash from our area and salvaged trees from a road work project. Him and his crew made art and am spreading a message of hope and human work to help the future.
His message is being witnessed and people are coming from far and wide to witness these trolls.
They are here to help us tiny humans. It's a fun way with a lesson.
I'm amazed by the gentle way of bringing people together and I witnessed something that makes me very hopeful for all our futures.
Thank you for your wisdom and words and strength to stand up and keep speaking ❤❤
Excellent performance in THUNDERHEART
so true brother thank you for helping me your spirit is powerful
Words of Wisdom 💚🙏
Hre spoke from the heart thats a hard thing to do in this world
Sad isn't it ✌🏾🤠🤟🏻🌎💚🌍🎗
He should have tried speaking from the brain. Speaking from the heart made hime sound like the uneducated, low IQ babbler that he was.
