@@prophecy9070 idk what to tell you. Leave the planet? I mean... thats the only solution for you really.
They should have just let the native americans keep it. They were putting it to better use anyways.
They should give it back
I know its fuckin tourist trap at best bow
I mean that’s true of the whole country
They said that with america too and look how that turned out
They were getting free electricity and water wtf are you talking about
My grandpa is Adam Fortunate Eagle, and boy does he have some incredible stories of what happened. Him and my grandma were even targeted by the fbi and were named enemies of the state in California, even to this day LOL.
TheXTREMEQMAN a lot of us would love to hear some of those stories!
I would love to hear some of those stories.
TheXTREMEQMAN Wait, you know “enemies of the state” doesn’t mean the enemies of a particular state, right?
You need to make videos of this!

Native Americans really got it bad in our nation's history. So many broken promises.

How ironic is it that Caucasian Americans complain about Latinos and Muslims "illegally" occupying the land their own ancestors illegally occupied themselves?
@@darylcarr8283 To be fair, they didn't do it. They're ancestors did. They were just born here. Maybe I should say we sine I'm Caucasian.
I see the need for some border regulations, but if someone isn't a criminal, we should let them in, simple as that.
My cousin married a guy from Mexico who was here for school on a visa, and they had a really hard time going through all the steps to make him legal. He's a really good guy, so there's no reason it should have been as hard as it was. We need to fix this system.
@@LEFT4BASS
Sorry to hear about your cousin's and cousin-in-law's struggles; even sorrier to know that had he came from a "non-s***hole country," his naturalization process would've been much more streamlined. The only way this "system" will ever be fixed is to address, acknowledge and actively strive to annihilate from our policies the United States' original sins of RACISM and it's slightly younger sibling XENOPHOBIA.
The inevitable shifting of our "demographics" has far too many people fearing our country losing its "identity;" all the while ignoring the fact that one of the major "bragging rights" we like to tout to other nations is our "cultural/ethnic diversity." We need to do some soul searching and come to the conclusion that either we're going to continue to identify ourselves as this "melting pot" we originally claimed to be in both word and deed, or we're going to be no better than the totalitarian/fascist dictatorships we sacrificed lives to fight against.
Daryl Carr I really wish people could get along. I’m not going to pretend to be colorblind like some white people do, but I wish people could see each other as the brothers and sisters we are instead of dividing each other into groups. Every person is an individual, and no one deserves to be judged by their skin.
The good thing is that people are fighting against it. I know I sound crazy hippie-ish, but seriously, we need to just see people as people.

Shoutout to Adam Beach, Zahn McClarnon, Q'orianka Kilcher and Dallas Goldtooth for their amazing performance
Thank you. I was looking for the names of the actors so I could read up on them.
That's her name! I recognized Adam, Zahn and Dallas right away, but I couldn't remember Q'orianka's name for the life of me.
the1491's!
My Peruvian sista 😍
I love Q’orianka Kilcher. I’m so excited to see what more she’ll do!
I aspire to be that petty
I support you in your endeavor.
Me too😂
in other words you wouldnt really wish to be petty because most not only was an entire nation stolen, but an entire race almost wiped out. and you know if they did our gvt would cover that shit up too... hidden history is more than the history we think is true...
Sound like you gay
@@prophecy9070 naw fam anyone can be petty
Glad they covered this! Another piece of American history that is neglected and should 100% get more recognition both in schools and media!
Susie Anthony oh boo hoo racism.... shut the fuck up
@@hughmungus661 no u
Exactly.
Susie Anthony To be fair most events that get covered in school only get covered because they’re major events. This wouldn’t qualify as a major event.
@@mp7950 actually they pick and choose to do. There are points in school textbooks that aren't major points but those gets covered.
You legit have some real First Nations talent in here!
Q'orianka Kilcher is Bae!!!
If they had Graham Greene, that would be it. Hahaha
Yes, I see Adam Beach
Drunk History is SO good about this. When they did stuff on disability rights, they had disabled people. When they did LGBTQ rights, they had gay and trans people. So glad to see this here too.
@@headoverheels88 Drunk History is more representative and accurate than a lot of documentaries these days. Welcome to the future?
The lip syncs and expressions are perfect XD
that body lanuage tho!
Just perfection
The national park page for Alcatraz is pretty icky when they talk about this. They ignore that the native Americans did have a legal cause to occupy the island, make them sound like they weren’t too organized (a bunch of students) and call them exclusively use the term “Indians”.
It’s wrong to call them exclusively Indians. That said I don’t think they were too organised. It was meant as a short term means of protest to send a message with usually younger people. They aren’t organised particularly well today and they weren’t organised that well in the late 60’s.
+Jojoforpres Yes but half of the historical change that started in the 60’s became what it was due to the huge surge in ‘student culture’. Flower power and the world peace movement all started from these places and so did most major protests.
Kay. M True, the pet peeve I have about these shows. Is that they almost make Historical facts too fun for people. These are the same people that you saw in history classes everywhere that never did anything bc it was ‘too boring’ for them. But as soon as you put it in the context of entertainment, guess what it becomes entertaining. But they actually believe they’ve done some in depth research by watching it when in fact if it wasn’t interesting to you then you should’ve worked at it and made it interesting and been involved. I always thought maths was fucking mind numbingly boring yet I never blamed it on maths or my maths teachers because I knew it was 100% down to me and my aptitude or lack of. And that maths was never interesting, simply because I was never interested in it.
Jojoforpres You realize "Indian" comes from the work Indigenous...... Its not derogatory or belittling when its the accurate term by definition.
@@kutie216 Nope, it's leftover from Christopher Columbus thinking he landed in India (he did think the earth was pear shaped when the consensus was it's a globe) . There's a wikipedia page dedicated to this ergo you could've easily found out you were off.
"Checked your mail? Ate some jello? Bastards." Lmao.
That line got me 😂😂😂
How'd you know?
Because it’s important to keep your “petty-game” up!
I had the honour of working with John Trudell at various times in the '90s. He was very inspiring. I'll never forget his speeches and the private time with him and his family. I hope he is at peace now.
whow that's amazing
This gave me LIFE! We need more Native American stories like this being told! The narration and the actors were so on point 🙌🏾
you need to respect what America can offer and stop bitching about the past. nothing is stopping you from fixing the reservations or buying land, nothing except weak minds drunk on being conquered. I never forget my red blood, no part of it. the conquerors or the conquered. I love being American and mixed with so many people. I have the true perspective. I've been oppressed for being white. the focus of people is such a waste of fucking time. you are nothing but potential and all you want to do is rebuild a world I will never bring back. the rainbow is all people. America made sure that happened and natives couldn't conquer other natives to do it. read that story
@Judah
So you wanna forget about the past because it might have some bad shit in it? That’s kind of stupid. I know my ancestors were slaves and I know there were slaves in Africa. History is important no matter how I may make you feel
@Judah
Also people should know exactly how this country was founded. Yeah it may be great to your standards, but it wasn’t always that way. Europeans came to a new land and slaughtered millions of natives and people like you think that doesn’t still affect our country today and that we shouldn’t learn about it because you can’t handle the truth
@@salihrahman2523all mankind is infected with a common disease, assumptions. natives conquered, raped and enslaved natives. as much as I give all honor to all my bloodlines, including native I also look at their curses. maybe blame nature or the creator for bringing two very different peoples together. we should know all aspects of the human condition and all history of people. not what people want to select. I wish I could have been there. I can tell you, when I was, natives did what they always do, go their inner devils for guidance.
@@salihrahman2523 the only thing affecting America today is the plague of communism and globalists hiding behind natives they will never ever give the slightest fuck about but you want to turn into hero's. ya brother, there was a much bigger and badder world going on than just bows and arrows and natives slaughtering each other.
That woman is possibly the most beautiful woman I've ever laid eyes on. My lord.
Jenn Righter unreal right?
That was Q'orianka Kilcher, if I'm not mistaken. And yeah, she's beautiful! *And* a tireless activist for indigenous peoples and the environment!
RIGHT?!?! And an amazing actress too.

My favourite part of the video 😂😂
I love me a good model, and these were on point.
Lol
24$, glass beads and some red cloth!! Best comeback I have heard of, EVER😂 I mean, it was legally theirs anyways, but I loved that part!
far as i know, Manhattan was bought for so little because the Dutch paid the wrong people (who didn't care either way)
When the buyers found out, they continued on like nothing was awry.
This is interesting. I had the opportunity to visit Alcatraz in May, and there was no information about these events at all. I saw the graffiti and was confused but other than that there’s no evidence (presented on the island) that this ever happened (because what else would you expect from the US government).
wish i could say i am surprised :/
There's a small section sort of separate from the main prison that's dedicated to remembering the protest after you finish the audio tour, and I assume most of the tour guides would have mentioned it. You obviously didn't get the full value of your visit. The graffiti was actually repainted on to memorialize them having been there.
@@audreylee3638 That's good then! I just do not understand why they were kicked off to make another damn park.
Me either, and some girl in my class gave a speech about it
Yeah I went there in March. There is a separate building on Alcatraz dedicated to that part of the history. There are rooms where you can sit down and watch videos about the Native Americans on the land and rooms full of photos and info about that time and what they wore and such. I was more upset about Angel Island to be honest. The tour there really doesn't explain about the immigration story much and you can't go into the buildings if you do the tram tour so....
I am born and raised Native American and this is pretty good.
Edit: I’m *Assiniboine X Sioux* from Fortpeck tribes North East Montana.
Are you on a reservation buddy can we talk I am Cherokee I am not on the reservation
puyallup tribe of indians - coastal natives over here. hoyt.
1/2 Navajo from the Small Goat and Red Cliff clans. The other half is an old salty engineer from the Navy... I guess makes me a Pirate of The Wasteland. Seriously though I got to visit Alcatraz, I have seen pictures when younger and thought it was in poor taste of someone tagging Redskin slogans on prison. Now that I now the history I can see clever irony in this tale.
I concur
I'm Native American.. I was born a raised a MAC.. and this was pretty shitty🦉
god i'd kill to see an actual good, well-made movie about this....we need more native rep in film :(
Desperately.
Q’orianka Kilcher is sooo gorgeous! She was so wonderful in this. I’m so glad Drunk History is shining light on Natives struggles, the world needs to know.
I'm black and native and I LOVED this!! Hahaha
Adam Beach snatching those sunglasses TOOK ME OUT LMFAO
I'm laughing so hard I'm crying
Native Americans, y'all keep your petty game up. - a white person on your side
Go look up the situation at Wet'suwet'en - I am sure you can help in some ways - and if it is only sharing information like I do, it is something.
@Beta Gamma hahaha I'm white and you're a disgrace to the human race. Your I'll is a bunch of narcissists who blame everyone but yourselves for your shitty lives. In no way is massacring, stealing, or oppressing people in any way correct. I didn't take part in it, neither did you but you certainly shouldn't defend it. Get a job and some exercise and maybe you won't be so angry
Virtue signalling.
Opel Aurora what did she say
@Olive Oil
Ok buddy

This is one of my faves, and respect to Drunk History for casting actual Natives!
Electrixity....

Dead! 😂😂😂😭😭🤣🤣🤣
I mean what is it anyway? Some trixity magic?
Please get him drunk again. He’s like barrel of characters in one man. Rofl 🤣
3:26 that bit about middle fingers! i'm crying xD
I love when Daryl Johnson tells the story. He's always hilarious, and tells it in a very entertaining way.
I seriously love how Zahn brings the sass in this vid! These guys are awesome!
This is my favorite episode 😂😂
I might be a little biased because I’m tlingit ( technically not Native American but native alaskan)
Drunk history should do an episode about Elizabeth Peratrovich
She was a civil rights activist for the equality of Alaska natives
And she was credited with advocacy that gained passage for the First Anti discrimination law in the United States.
She did THAT.
If drunk history makes an episode about her I will be so happy and cry ❤️😭❤️ please.
We're a broken ppl but we are still here
I LOVE the shade Daryl Johnson and the actors are throwing in this episode - "$24 in glass beads and some red claws. How about that?"
#RedPower
I'm native American and I love it how he tells this story.
Can the Native Americans take it back again?
I dunno. But it is burnt down. Although if they could take it back maybe they could fix it.
There are no more native Americans tbh, the people who call themselves native Americans today are not real native Americans
@@kangz8030 as in no full blood natives?
Kylin Burtrum yes and because many of them clame that their lands were stolen and yet they are using American produced clothes and use American produced things. Unless you live on a Native American reservation and use things you made yourself you are not a real Native American in my opinion
Oof Your opinion doesn’t matter. Not all Natives belong to tribes that HAVE reservations. There are plenty of “full bloods” you don’t fix your narrow and ancient idea of what Native Americans “really are”.
I'm literally eating jello. My toddlers jello.
ahahahaahahaaaa
Adam Beach, ladies and gentlemen.
And Zahn Mcclarnon!
Love them
“Adam Fortunate Eagle’s” press conference!!! 😂
I mean... that’s his name? Why is it funny? Every name means something. Your surname is Middle English for “person who makes roof shingles”, while my last name means “person from Treviso”.
Who built that dam miniature Alcatraz, ocean and 🚣♀️? We need to talk.
Nice seeing Adam Beach in something goofy instead of intense hahaha
drunk history is consistently one of the best things on the internet
Great episode. Q'orianka Kilcher was great!
DarylJohnson needs to tell more of these. He is the best storyteller yet. This is my favorite of the dozen I have seen.
3:56 - 4:04 artful break of the 3rd- wall
If this dude was my history teacher I would've never skipped class 😂😂.
This one, Tiffany Haddish, and Chrissle’s drunk history are my faves
These are my favorite ones too 😂😂❤️❤️
This by far one of the funniest drunk history segments! 🤣🤣🤣
This is by far my favorite telling of history. Can he please do more? Also I learned so much from this. I vote all history be taught this way.
Are we going to talk about how great of a storyteller Daryl Johnson is or nah? He was one of the better guests I've seen do this
Immediately after watching went and edited my Google and Outlook calendars to read Indigenous People's Day instead of Columbus Day. Why hadn't I thought of that before anyway... damn.
*That petty level*
Thank you Drunk History!! We all need more education on the Native American people! You know the white man text books don’t teach us anything!!💔
Richest country of all time...
i want me some glass beads y'all
Bill Cosby said wya 😉
Can we just talk about how amazing Zahn McClarnon is?
AMEN!
your casting is so on point, as always!!
Electrixity is the best stripper name I ever heard.
Turns everyone on.
By far, my favorite Drunk History.
"What did you do today? Checked your email. Ate some Jell-O...
Bastard."
Good quote
I want Daryl Johnson to narrate every drunk history segment from now on
I think this might be my fave Drunk History. And I actually learned something from it!
This is by far one of my favorites...it always makes me laugh!!!
This is my new fav episode
SAME!
Can we get a rundown of the cameos? Dallas Goldtooth. Yum. Adam Beach. YUM.... RIP Trudell

Native Americans speaking in blaccent.
I know! lol!
Riiiiiight! Daryl Johnson was perfect for this.
Possibly special hell for that. Totally worth it.
It would have been considered offensive to use a white narrator. Or to get a Native American drunk for the narration. To keep PC they had to go black or Latino.
lol they killed it 🤣
Damn Q'orianka Kilcher is hot🔥🔥🔥
I wonder who plays her
damn good actress and a DAMN fine activist! i admire that shit
Thee voice over acting is impeccable. Also the body language was excellent.
I always see Zahn McClarnon in all these super serious prestige TV roles (Fargo, Westworld) so I'm really happy to see him have some fun.
How he sipped from the glass in the end like "and thats the tea"
This is one of my favourite episodes, he’s a great narrator
This is Epic! Thanks Drunk History 👊🏿
This is one of the best ones. 😂

I am so grateful for these videos! Cheers 🥃
Wow, I honestly didn't even know about this. I was born in 99 so this was exactly taught in school. I actually went on a tour to Alcatraz when I was little and vaguely remember the tour guide saying something about the graffiti, but it wasn't expanded upon as the whole idea of the tour was to focus on Alcatraz as a former prison and some of the big names that were locked up as well as the hygiene concerns for prisoners. You learn something new everyday.
The female actress is beautiful
Her name is Q'orianka Kilcher. My favorite movie of hers is Princess Ka'iulani.
@@aznar666 She was great in that movie, although the movie itself is so-so. I really liked her as Pocahontas in The New World
@@jamesrawlins735 As long as they make her play some ethnic princess they're happy. although they say her performance in The Alienist where she plays a deaf woman is breathtaking, I'm going to watch it very soon.
“Look y’all, we takin this shit ova” had me dyingggggg
Best narration I've heard so far. Perfect LOL
"Richard Nixon already involved in a scandal he don't even know about yet."
Nixon: N-Nani?
I watched this and was litterally hollering laughing...lol about to lose my job ..yooo....
I hope there will be more episodes with Native history.
This is a beautiful homage. My son and I have been to Alcatraz twice in the past 7 years. It’s full of history.
LOVE this one on so many levels! Also, can Daryl Johnson come back? Love him!
This was very accurate actually
A lot of paraphrasing, obviously. But pretty damn close to accurate.
The dude that played Richard Oakes was in the movie ‘Smoke Signals’. That was the first movie written by, directed, and starring Native Americans. He was also in ‘Code Talkers’ or whatever it was called. He’s a good actor!!! I loved Smoke Signals, it was a really good movie!
Why am I just getting to this?! I love the collaboration and the way the actors were on point with the sassiness of the narration. We need this in schools--hilarious and informative. 😂😂😂
Where's my Derek??? Where's my little sweetie???? This ain't no Drunk History without my little honey Derek!!!!!!!
Aside from that - Nice Job in telling the Truth!! As per usual. Thanks Derek. And pals.
The middle fingers sent me
That Lil middle finger bit is funny as hell 🤣
The fake boats and ship at 1:13 had me dying lol I wanna be on this show so bad
But that petty level is on a thousand. LoL
They put middle fingers all up in the government. Why all these middle fingers up in mah face!?! 🤣😂
Adam Beach. One of the great, unheralded actors of his generation!!!!!
this was one of the best ones
"...and some RED cloth." I'm dead.
INDIGENOUS PEOPLES DAY YA’LL!!
The lip syncing is so perfect😂
Woo. My favorite Drunk History so far. And that's a high bar.
I teach this, along with lesser known events/people, to my students every year in November for Native American Heritage Month. I encourage them and you to go to the Thanksgiving Day ceremony as well. It’s really special. I didn’t know there was one for indigenous peoples day too. I will tell them about that too now.
