Native American: Hard to say I trust government

- Опубликовано: 1 июн 2018
- CNN's Van Jones talks to Native Americans to discuss the government's level of contribution to their reservations throughout the different administrations.
Only when the last tree has been cut down, the last fish been caught, and the last stream poisoned, will we realize we cannot eat money. - Cree Prophecy
Conray Lady Bubble November Okay.. Congratulations? Your sexual orientation is not really a concern of mine. I don't have an opinion on anyone's proclivities. I don't judge people on silly things like that. Love who you love dude. I don't understand why you're telling me this?
Jade Laurel Johnson that message is powerful
Nobody Knows The government should return all the land, and in places where that's not feasible, pay market price for it and back pay for every year it has been stolen and then pay rent to each band who owns the land the government has colonized until the land is returned. Every square inch of it. Then restitution should be paid for the genocide, residential "schools" and the forced migration of Natives to reserves that are not on traditional lands, because they've built cities there. Once they've paid all that back rent, all hunting/trapping/fishing/gathering rights should be restored. Natives should be fully self governing and be emancipated from bigoted legislation like the Indian Act. The government should then provide apologies. Once that's done, they can keep their pennies in contribution to reserves, because they'll be paying for what they've stolen, rather than attempting to appease Natives with small increments. So yeah. I'd be fine with that.
Nobody Knows Lmfao. You are saying nope like anyone actually gives a shit what you think.. That's hilarious. You are so grossly misinformed that I don't even care what you wrote. It's all just bullshit. Lol.. Oh, you really gave me a laugh with your "nope".. Like your opinion actually matters. Haha. Good one
Nobody Knows Was that an attempt at a compelling comeback? Meh. Turns out you're only unintentionally hilarious... Again, I really don't care what your opinion is, it's entirely uninformed and inconsequential. You literally don't matter and have no impact on the subject. Thankfully. I hope your bigotry is slapped down at every expression and your opinion continues to be meaningless while no one pays you any mind. I'm not wasting any more time on replying to the comments I didn't even bother reading in full. You're the stereotypical American that makes the world hate America. Nice contribution to society bro.
you should always have a healthy distrust of your government no matter who are
Das Boot well said
Das Boot yeah, especially if they slaughtered half your ppl, took your land and called it the land of the free
Das Boot If you dont love EVERYTHING about this country you can LEAVE lol jk just my favorite right wing talking nationalist talking point
Never trust any entity with governing power. Power corrupts. It's human nature. Human history is filled with governments that had power over people, wanted more power because they, (the small elite) were afraid of losing their power. Those in power always resort to violence in order to sustain it. Always.
lime light enslaved the others and gave them misnomers
It's amazing how you can be dying from genocide and still praise the murderer,. Wow... Powerful stuff...
First of all, as a Native American, no one owns this land. We belong to the land, the land feeds us, takes care of us all. How can someone own their mother? In the early 20th century in Oklahoma when oil was found on Native land the Natives became wealthy along with the well drillers. Pissed off a lot of Belagana (Navajo noun for white man.)
Now when sTrumpet wanted tax exemption for his casinos he said "Why are Indians casinos not taxed? Some Indians I have seen don't look Indian." The congressmen said to he was glad that most people don't judge people by their appearances and was denied tax exemption.
There have been a common practice from the federal government to have Native Americans turn on each other for the advancement of private non Indian companies and governments to take advantage due Indians not being united. Take for instance of Leech Lake Indian Reservation in MN. In order to obtain Indian land they parceled the land out to individual band members, who the white people would not hire for jobs, they were poor so they sold their land and thus lost it to the whites. Now Red Lake Indian Nation will not even let white people even fish on the land without written permission and a guide, as it should be.
As is was told by my elders, be kind to the white man because they are OUR guests, we will be here long after they are gone.
As fare as Eva Ewald is concerned she is what we call and "Apple" red on the outside and white on inside. Siding with the Predator in Chief is idiotic. He cares for no one but himself, lying sack of shit.
"mark allen" is not a name of a native American.....
Half breed?
hmm blank profile page... 100% Russian?
Preach it!
I am a registered Native American who was adopted as a child. Oh by the way Fuck You!

Christianity kills the soul and mind.
I'm so glad I'm a Christian
Most are easily brainwashed but some are still good
Some religious community are good same with people some are bad some are good
Yup u got that right.😡
Thats what the devil got you to believe.. He's good at turning people against Christ because that is his job.
As a Native (Seneca Nation in NY), I know we are down from 100% of the American population to .5 % of the American population, my meaning is this: Our voice is seldom heard, our needs not focused on. Thank you Van Jones for giving a platform for those views of those peoples touch by the loss of Bears Ears. In my view Obama meant well in his heart, that I can stand with.
Indians did 7-eleven, Not saying you're wrong, but I am saying Jews have the backing of two of the worlds biggest religions which is a huge edge to getting their way.
Janet Masiello, "traitor 44" I am guessing is right wing code for President Obama. As he was the 44 President.
Trump via EPA head Scott Pruit took that land back for Corporate use. Corporations and their endless need for profit are not in it to help people, and you know that.
I wish he would've made an appearance at standing rock.
Puglous, Interesting take and I can see how you'd form it. But it is not the truth. Natives get stepped on by the U.S. Government (present administration) because they lack the votes and voice to garner the attention of the American people. Who understandably are caught up in the circus of Trump world. Native oppression is no myth, it goes on across the U.S. even in my little rez as NYS breaks treaties on tax collection from casinos.
Janet Masiello you sound slow. Obama is the one who have you guys back the land. Trunk is the one who came and took the land back 85%of it. Trump has hated Native Americans for what back. He did not even wanted Indians to have casinos. Then he had a commercial going drafting that the Indians doesn't pay taxes. I did not voted for that. This man has no love for the native Americans ND your Fool to believe so.
Native Americans don't trust the American government? As a black American I completely understand.
For real. I've never met a native who fucked with the government to my extent. Most of em I met hate the government about as much as we hate the KKK
So true. Thank you fam.
Anyone who knows history and has common sense doesn’t trust the government.
How is this fake news ?? He finds 3 people with totally different views and let them speak freely.
Not moron. Because he is Van Jones - a noted toady for the leftist.
Van Jones likes spreading fake news in general
Roger Wilco butthurt bitch
Not Tom Cruise, exactly he lets them speak and listens. That is the sign of a good host.
Van is not spreading fake news. Just because you dislike what he saying does not mean it is fake news. White supremacy is real and evil.
I’m native Mexican and I love ❤️ my native Americans .
WASHINGTON - The Americas were first discovered by an Italian explorer named Christopher Columbus in 1492. This discovery became one of the greatest discoveries in the world. Today, the Americas are inhabited by more than 1 billion people. History records, long before Columbus came to this continent, there was a Muslim explorer named Mansa Abubakari II from the Mali Empire. He landed on the American continent in 1312. Apart from that, another interesting history of the continent is the existence of the indigenous inhabitants of the American continent, the Cherokee Indians, who embraced Islam.
Native Mexicans are Native Americans. These borders are fake, we're 1 or 2 continents, we are not split by colonial borders but by our own borders. Bless you relative 🙏🏽🪶
@@YRD666 any good source here on RUclips? Cuz all I saw were "Abu Bakari II" type of myths.
She’s white
it doesn’t get any whiter
u r a kid? read the difference between natives and strangers
I think you should have to have at least 50% Native blood to say your native American
They sure looked ALOT darker in the old real footage of them, i sense many bandwagon jumpers with lower% Native blood
Very thankful to see you reaching out and listening to the Native Americans Van. We all stand to learn a lot by doing the same
Who's the white woman pretending to be native?
Elizabeth Warren? 🤔
You mean the five dollar Indian sitting in the back seat? Crazy Horse, Sitting Bull, Chief Joseph, Geronimo and Cochise are rolling over in their graves.
Chris G...Elizabeth Warren?
Chris G all native Americans are not dark skin I look white I'm registered
TheButtermilkgirl Huh? Is trump your dad? White
Native Americans are very brave and beautiful !

Van asked a very important question, but no one answered it: “Whose fault is it...” Sadly, those who are perceived as poor are often stepped over and upon. The suicide rate of the their youth should concern every human being. Praying for a Native revival 🙏🏽
West Virginia..coal mining,60000 natural gas Wells, air and water is poisoned and the people live in poverty.
Jamie Shows hmm...you must be one of those Facebook floaters. The coal mines and Wells were here about 130 years so have no clue what politics has to do with it
Well, when the people compound the fact by continuing to seek those practices -- who is to blame?
Randall Frame😒uh, yeah and you can even visibly see what it has done to the health of the people in west Virginia.most are very poor , broken and toothless ...coal mining has caused coal ash to be breathed Into the air....also lime deposits getting into the waters from limestone quarries🚜...etc...wv is the dirtiest
☹️
New york was all native land at one time did all you know that!
I'm a native American I lost my home I live in forest now and I'm treated like a criminal and worse I don't even trust my own people anymore
I hope you good spirit and virtue
So sorry to hear that 😥. Stay safe.
Its the navajo scouts
I hope the native people get their land back or are granted the right to have pure unspoiled land to be on, in my view they are one of the few people that actually have a connection with spirit, god or however you choose to say, clearly the world world have been free from polution, habitat destruction, mass extinctions, and the overall crazyness of society if everyone was in touch with what really matters
No matter what the devil does the devil has supporters that he destroys while the supporters praise that devil,. Very Powerful..
I have literally this exact shirt
"Sure you can trust the government..... Just ask an Indian"
I feel like this was a well balanced discussion, with people of different opinions having a calm discourse. And Native issues are so rarely covered by journalists, even though the policies of the US gov impact these native communities so directly. This was a great segment.
I am full blooded Navajo I Grew up learning to love an respect where you are from ...you take care of it an it well take care of you just like many other factors in life.
I’m Native and I don’t trust Government . To the Government You should know how to walk the talk. Don’t give us empty lies.
For real im native and i like trump its not the goverment its the Democrats
Thank you for paying attention to Native voices. I have my personal beliefs, but I just appreciate the opportunity you gave for Natives to be heard. It saddens me that this is so rare, and that we are so invisible and silent to the majority, unless they're hijacking our culture or being viciously racist. So thank you. I hope this isn't a one shot deal. This land is our mother, we respect the land that gave us life, that cared for our people for thousands of years. Our cultures don't believe in land OWNERship, but STEWARDship. That is, we each exist for a fraction of a second on the land, and you can't own something that lives for hundreds of billions of years, but you can respect it and do your best to honour it. That's all Native people want in terms of land. The ability to live freely and respect the earth you walk upon, to leave as little a mark as possible, so future generations may enjoy the same.
"Hey let's go to one of the most scenic places on earth and film the interior of our van. This is Van Jones for CNN"
Gotta love the Van Jones show, it's a gem of a show...
Really moron. The Green Czar under Obama. Didn't do anything. Now? He's working for FAKE NEWS. How appropriate.
Donald Brown I am tired of explaining to Trump groupies that they shouldn't attack other looks while worshiping an obese umpa lumpa with patchy eyes. Your repulsive guru paid trophy wives to reproduce but still manage to make ugly children like Don Jr and Eric the albino rat. That makes you look even more stupid
What about Clobama? What about O'billary? What about the Clyde/OsummerbAct of 1843 that I just made up just now?
Trump Truth Watch i
Lol... The meaning of your name " Guillaume " in French means ... resolute protector .... so what are you protecting ?
Your page says " This channel doesn't have any content "
Your mind says " This mind doesn't have any content "
You are weak a beta soy boy Billy baby....lol
Now I think tge Native Amerucans should develop a slogan: "Send Trump back; you all go back."
Most people do not realize that the American Government made 100's of treaties with Indian Tribes which predate the United States Constitution and the Northwest Ordinance (1787) These Treaties were made, in some cases to avoid a war, and in other cases after fighting (the French Indian War) We honored these treaties to some extent but the newly forming States would constantly interfere with the Indian lands which pre-empt their statehood.. In one case an Indian farmer was exempted from paying property taxes to the county because his land was passed down to him from his descendent's who got the land by treaty. Indian Casinos are a product of these treaties and can exist without States approval on Indian land. When manifest destiny carried into the wild west we made more treaties, however, these treaties were made with a defeated peoples or "nation" if you prefer and were intended to isolate the tribes from the settlers. The States and the feds now have sour grapes because they thought the land was worthless--sorry boys. Obama's declaration of National Monument Status to 2,000.000 acres, some of which was under treaty was an attempt to steal from the Indians and not in any way an act of kindness. The Indians own the mineral rights and the land. Now we are engaged in a real battle over land and rights. Treaties supercede United States Law. My favorite case is the Louisiana Children Services case in which it was decided that the Indians should have their own juvenile courts to protect their children. WHY- you might ask--Because the Louisiana Department of Children Services were stealing their children and adopting them out on the flimsiest of grounds and the federal courts stopped it. Now most tribes have their own court system for children and matters which arise on their reservation. While some states and jurisdictions continue to try and screw the Indians, as Obama did, the Indians in many cases have the upper hand, as they should. Declaring their land a national monument, forest, park or whatever is depriving the Indians of their right to the territory they control. In conclusion, I back the Indians 100%. MAGA
Scott Hawkins yes,thank you
It's hard for me to say I trust CNN.
Dude in the back on the right is speaking FACTS and living in reality. Glad he's there to speak up for Team Sanity.
Team Sanity? Sure
The world leaks oil without man doing anything 😉
As a native American, we need more people with a platform to help us speak more about issues we're facing with, the consequences we're dealt.
if u vote democrat dont complian they wanted slaves and did trail of tears and to day support gov taking land for "better purposes" in the name of government
Maybe buy some land with all that tax payer subsidized money? That is on top of all the land that the US already gave u!
Imagine endless wars on all against all then not protecting your borders and whining about a free ride on the back of THE GREATEST COUNTRY ON THE PLANET!
*TRUST NO ONE* not even yourself...
DarkØptionLeft trust nobody especially N O B O D Y
I like how everyone focus on Utah, north Dakota and completely ignored how we (including myself) Navajo tribe in New Mexico because were mistaking of the country mexico
"Was" is the key word
Choose love over hate, peace...
LOL.
Bullshit..choose better involvement in American government and politics with more informed representatives to get results to produce a better life for all Indians in the U.S.
Trump Truth Watch we love trump, hell yeah
PwnishR but im not a liberal, my eyes are wide open. You people are the problem, you uneducated name calling twit. lmao
PwnishR ok, yeah, ive never even been there. I heard its nicer than shit hole africa though, i wouldnt actually mind going to scotland to see where my people came from. Im not even hurt by you whining "go back to europe", as if its dirty and corrupt like brown skinned countries/continents.😂😂🤣🤣, idiot..
This was the Indians land. Our ancestors came across the ocean looking for a place to build a life. And took what ever they wanted. They had no respect for the inhabitants and never did. The indian people where humiliated, killed, treated like animals, kicked off their land and forced onto land nobody else wanted. And still more and more was taken from them. Our government needs to work out something with these people that will enable them to build factories and make jobs, i don't have the answers but someone smarter than i , our government worki ng with their leaders to do what ever it take to help their Nation get on their feet and built their communities so they can be self efficient, not gambling where there are criminals with their noses in their business. Our leaders need to be trust worthy and truthfull in dealing with them and stay out of their business and land. We have no business drilling or running pipelines or anything else on their land! If they are a sovereign Nation .there are far to much addiction out of hopelessness, and lack of jobs.help them help theirselves, give their children hope for a future and the people the means to show their children how wonderfull their Nation was and could be again
Give back to the American Indians what they need to be self sustaining! Like i said, i don't have the answers but i do think we owe these people way more than they've been given.
Kim Stewart
Well said!
Amen.
Why are the people who owned this country the poorest people????? Something needs to change. How great is a President who takes more and doesn't give back?????
I see only 2 copper colored men aka natives in the van!
The guy is the only one that looks 100% native blood , the other 2 women look mixed blood.
The trail of tears was not okay.
yet u vote demokkkrat the ones who caused it?
Qayatazawan Tham wa Ahmawan it's were not your mother's fucking tear dam fools
Still hung up on that huh??? Smdh.
The parties had switched by then I believe
Never trust who killed and stole from you that's common sense
Yup
It's sad that America refuses to be honest with the People, after so long. 500 years and they still won't tell admit we're all indigenous.
chick in the back is white af
Joe Stockton she looks white and thinks white.
THE LADY ON THE BACK IN THE LEFT LIVES IN FANTASY LAND. LOL SHE PROBABLY THINKS SHE IS POCAHONTAS. HAHAHAHA
You probably thinks she is a Princess! LOL
Max Kwok...why would I think that?
bry rsx maybe you live in fantasy land lol fakest of the fake
If you are not Native, you don't know our struggles. If you are white, you will never fully understand how historical trauma permanently affects us. Unless you are Native, what you say has no bearing on us bc, as stated before, you don't know. Your words do not hurt or define us. We see you as ignorant bc you speak as if "get over it" or "your people lost" concerns you, rest assured, it doesn't. These are OUR concerns. For those who speak as if they do know, when really you only know what has been taught to you, I don't think you could ever make it as OUR people have! We are the strongest of the strong. We aren't going anywhere, and if you think your opinions and words hurt, think again. It's just noise to us, bc you aren't fully aware how we managed to beat a government, whose sole purpose was to exterminate us all by ridding us with diseases, poison and sticking us in the most desolate places thinking we would perish or just "go away". This is our people's land and we were and are NEVER going anywhere!
@R. Cee, no other group in the USA understands the historical Trauma associated with losing your identity, your spiritual system, your culture no other group in the USA hugh? I can name one group, but as your claim no other group will understand the Historical trauma , dude truly and really do some research before you post a comment.
Native Americans are so pure and true that they should be president
Were Van Jones's slave ancestors owned by red Indians, they would’ve remained slaves well after the Civil War, as red Indian tribes were not compelled to comply with the US Constitution. 😳
Stop with the generalizations!!! Did the Navajo have anything to do with black slavery? Fuck NO! Stop being a ignorant fuck.
Native americans should compare their lifes to native americans from central america instead of complaining about racism
This is why they still got nothing keep thinking negative instead joining the real world stop thinking about the past
If one does nothing than nothing changes.. same bs continue to go on.. play make believe things have changed...
Look at history(his story) repeats itself. What has been done to native people in the past is continuing. Intergenerational trauma is real. The young man is correct in our rights.
Native also don't trust CNN lol 😂😂😂
Im Cherokee 10 % Dont TRUST fake NEWS.
absolute Democracy True! Obama did nothing for us. Bush did nothing for us. Clinton did nothing for us. GHW Bush did nothing for us. Reagan did nothing for us. And so on. I can’t stand listening to Van Jones say Obama did a lot for us. Bull. If you’ve ever been to the Qualla Boundary, we’re doing slightly better since someone else took over from Obama.
absolute Democracy I trust them, especially when there's nothing proving their fake.
Some do some don't simple as that
I guess that explains why Fox News ratings beat both CNN's and MSNBC's COMBINED ratings.
Lmaoooo I have alot of Native homies and home girls and one thing I've never EVER heard was any trust for government. They've always been screwed over by government.
Wait a minute, who are “this lands original owners”, that are spoken about, just because you are present in a place does not mean ownership, ownership comes with development, otherwise you are just a bum, you establish and develop and make productive as a way and a stance against the bum, free for all mentality that continually tries to encroach and pollute and destroy the development that keeps us all clean and safe, so this lands original owners are those that came in and developed the land, these others that you so love to speak of are just a bunch of vagabond bums, kinda like the ones pressing on our southern border, if you love their ideology so much, then go join them and we will wall you out too, just sayin if you disagree with our ways and hate our constitution then denounce your citizenship and move out.
I trust our leaders as far as CNN...How can a liar speak for us?
Algoma, and the Osage.
Uh..."mother nature"? Our ancestors NEVER worshipped no "mother nature". It was ALWAYS about the Lord - "The Great Spirit" or "The Cause of All" or "Giver of Life" & other names. Idk WHAT this woman's talkin' about. There's ALWAYS been religious-folk though, even today.
Brown and proud
oscar garcia aniyunwiya, chahta🤙🏾
I'm Native American and we are a discrace we get free money free Benifits. And have the highest poverty/drug/alcoholic rate
You do know that benefits is just a way for the government to marginalize our lives more. They make us dependent on the government by making us live our lives with money they handed to us just to make us take advantage of it. That's the part of their plan. Don't be ashame as a Native American, be proud of that.
Seth Jimerson I’m aniyunwiya and shinnecok what tribe are you🤙🏾
You just pointed out the effects of colonization and assimilation, that was the plan all along. Now it’s time to heal our people and rise above. You can either help or look the other way but don’t judge, it gets us/you nowhere...
the worst thing you will ever hear..I'm from the government and I'm here to help you
Yup u got that right.never trust a government man especially 1 who works with dunster Trumper.😡😠
The government should never have anything to do with anyone's land are property
but my climate change u racist
Ok Im just gonna say, it is not a good look for anyone to roll up in a white van and yell "get in this van."
I'm Indigenous Native of California . All I ever heard of was point the blame. Get in the " Corporate field of operations / bu5 " buy businesses then buy land. U buy it u own it . I vote for what is going to help my family 1st!!!! I own more land than my tribe ever did!! They're stuck on dependency , getting handouts . My life is good!!!
@Ooh Gee, yeah sure you and sure you do.
US has NEVER EVER HONORED ONE TREATY!!
#HONORTHETREATIES
#DEFENDTHESACRED
be smart, don't let other people use your land and take it from you.
I say speak up for yourself and others bring all the issues to light we need to be informed and able to understand that information and use it to our advantage
Thank you Van Jones, you are providing a very important service to those disenfranchised that our evil and idiotic president gives lip service but nothing more to. Native Americans have more of a right to the land than we do and if we respected that it would change the way EVERYONE on this planet views us.
If it's Native American land, the federal government should leave it alone PERIOD! True, the government has not kept their promises but Trump can change this by respecting the lands Native Americans own and respecting Native Americans.
How can you be native american and be in support of Trump? This gave me a headache...
90's kid same way blacks for trump give me a headache,most times if you dig deep enough you'll find a lot of them are paid stooges,paid sellouts 💰
that woman in the back was getting on my nerves
Here is a painful stat, 2015 census data reports Native Americans make up only 2% of the population. Of that 2%, 40% of those Native Americans living on reservations live below the poverty line, for those living off reservation it's 26%. That's the highest of any group, including African Americans. I mention African Americans because the comparable poverty rate is consistent with indicators that suggest oppression and inequality. In other words, there is no reason, Native Americans who inhabited this territory before colonization for thousands of years possibly should in this era living at this level of poverty. Poverty rates are only this high when some outside influence is actively in control of where the resources end up. That means even if Native Americans were lacking in education, intelligence, skill and any other biased limitation you wish to attribute to them, they still wouldn't be this poor. You can only be this poor when someone is robbing you of what you're rightfully entitled to.
I read in the comments where someone was saying the land doesn't belong to anyone and I agree BUT, if the land has sustained you and your people for thousands of years, it is by default your ancestral home and if anyone should be benefitting from its resources, it is the people who have maintained those lands
That native american woman is right she runs to her oppressors for what ever nauseating reason.
Even tho I'm young I still have a very distinct perspective on the government, being a Native American. All I can say is this country is broken and it's clear to see. Natives are mistreated. Black are mistreated. Mexicans are mistreated. The minorities are mistreated. The government is in debt of over a TRILLION. Most these white care about getting rich and don't give a fuck about us. Bernie said the country should be ran in a democratic way instead of rich billionaires taking advantage of land, and struggle, for marketing purposes so IDC wtf go on at this point. I jus wanna see how we gonna get outta this whole thing of being currupt government.
You invited them into your van, but you didn't offer to smoke a pipe with them first???! Sounds like you were trying to get them to sign another treaty..
I'm apache Aztec 100% native American and we are growing we are 3-12% percent of the population of you include indigenous Mexican and central south American who are also native american it will be even more 100% guaranteed
I enjoyed this. The issues within the US are extremely complex. The perspectives held by the people interviewed demonstrate this.
I can't trust the government or Facebook for that matter
Native Indians should be the richest people in america if the oil money went to them
That dude in the back is a fool. He said, "This country is a baby." *SMH* A nation is not a living being. It cannot be compared reasonably and demonstrably to a developing organism, particularly as we have instantaneous communication capabilities with most of the rest of our species. We are part of the world, and the people here are part of the human species/race. He also said, "this is a temporary time that we'll survive. We survived everything before. We'll survive this." *FP* That is hogwash. Natives have not survived at all. What percentage has survived? Less than 5%? Maybe less than 1%? Homboy's in somebody's pocket...
Donald Trump okayed the drilling for a private companies as a native we’re not getting that money if this is our land that is given to us the drilling is illegal and we should be getting all the money. the native Americans should never suffer any nation under the US government Will suffer as a negative we need to stand up together all nations on this continent we should stand together protest against the government changing their own rules on what we get and what we don’t get. we should get our land back💪🏽
Half Navajo and half Mexican .
All American Indians need to educate ourselves from anglos greed.I never voted and after watching the political parties fight among themselves. Never will I partake of this ridicules behavior!
"Do I think that everybody should, um, be able to speak articulately and say the things that are on their mind and speak fluidly like they have, um, a speechwriter, in their pocket? Absolutely not. I can appreciate the rawness and the, uh, the authenticity of somebody who fails with words sometimes the way any human would."
Native Americans are Stewards of the land not owners. Important distinction.
I'm with the lady at front, it doesn't matter which administration!!!!!
What happen to tge Natives American is a warning for all of us, when you become dependent on the government.
They never owned anything, the land owned them. That's what indigenous people say the world over. You belong to the motherland you never own it from the European perspective.
Why don't you go speak to a original tribe? Comanche, Souix, Cheyenne, Seminole..
Navajo are the last to come here and are the first to give up their culture. That's also why the government thinks we are all of Asian decent..they Only tested navajo blood..no other tribe would give up their genetics to the whites like navajo.
-Comanche Nation
Still your people bro 👊 the true owners of this land
Hard to say I trust Native Americans after visiting their casinos.
If natives did control the usa would it still we still be as divided would we have been more equal with natives and the black and then white people started coming idk I just wanna know what would the us be like we had a native as president it would be cool and a learning experenice
My mom's Native American, I'm gonna be real, I was basically raised never to trust the government, it's like first nature to look for the lies behind everything they say
Coldwelth Simms What tribe is she? Don’t say Cherokee lmao and you mean Indigenous Americans🤙🏾
It's not a coincidence that the most European of the three has the most right wing views. That lady is less than half Native and her white ancestors are speaking through her.
They all raised some strong points,and heart felt. I could already see the debate heating in their own ways before anyone started talking..all very articulate.
But we also need to take notice to better our own lives,if we are guardians of this earth..we shouldn't trash our homes..
There are Native Americans in the United States Government.

In March and April of 1792, George Washington met with 50 tribal chiefs in Philadelphia-including the Iroquois-to discuss closer friendship between them and the United States. Later that same year, in his Fourth Annual Message to Congress, Washington stressed the need for building peace, trust, and commerce with America's Indian neighbors.
The Indian Removal Act was signed by President Andrew Jackson on May 28, 1830
The National Museum of the American Indian refers to the policy as genocide. The Indian Removal Act was signed by Andrew Jackson but it was put into effect primarily under the Martin van Buren administration both democrats.
Can any of you tell me what the main ingredient in Pickle Bread is?
When i see these type of documentaries...... I cant help but wonder why people come form AMERICA to Africa to lecture us about pollution and the lack of development and yet, there are serious issues right there in USA!!!! Why???? Just yesterday the UN reported that 40 million people in USA live in poverty, while 5 million of those are living in absolute poverty. How can you still call us 3rd world???? and even Shithole???? No clinic???? no fire station???? are you kidding me???? i will be damned!!!!
Authenticity and Trump? How delusional can some people be?
the natives of this country lived in a garden of Eden till us white folk set shore
it was fine til white liberals showed up
America is barely hanging on by a thread as the world's superpower and this guy says we make mistakes like a baby? We need to set the precedent. We have no time nor room to make childish mistakes
Sounds like to me the tribes are being ignored and the white man is taking whatever he wants whenever he wants.
They must not allow this abuse but also feel defenseless to do anything about it.I wonder if the Native tribes leaders feel the same way or they are getting compensated and it's not enough to help everyone on the rez.
The leadership of this nation should make an immediate effort, at least
as great as the one recently made towards tax reform, towards negative
living conditions/ poverty issues having to do with the Native American
tribes.
Solutions needed.
*Declare a certain amount of capital for clean energy creation items-
solar powered, wind powered electricity for energy/cost efficient homes.
We owe it to the tribes to get them to a low cost of living for power.
This would allow them to invest more in their culture, and grow with the
times as we get to.
*Declare a certain amount of capital for house building & roads .
The housing situation needs to be totally brand new! This administration
is a construction king! There is no better time than now to have floor
plans created for homes that can stand the test of time for generations
to come for these families. These people need to be proud of our nation,
and a home is just should help with that!
*Address the water issues! Many areas have no running water. Federal
government passes the buck down to state and local government on this
critical issue. This is absolutely UNACCEPTABLE!
*Have a one time grant for the large discounted price of two vehicles
per family household. I mean literally having a discussion with auto
companies and getting the lowest price ever for these tribes. The
ultimate goal is to prove that we are not trying to bury them in debt,
but to give them the start of a new legacy as a people. It's time to
bless them. As we are expecting a wall to built between Mexico, we
should also make efforts for walls to be torn down with respect to the
lack of aid/communication to Native Tribes.
*It's time to help them to build websites for their businesses to sell
items. It's time to teach each tribe to have designated plumbers and
repairmen within their territories. This country needs to get them to a
point where they feel like they belong, and that we for once, recognized
the need to make things better. They need to know that we are evolving
as a nation UNITED! We need to help them to place of pride and
sustainability. We need to hear the voices and be honest enough to
change things.
*Build factories and get them equipment that will allow the tribes
access to their own tools to make clothing and jewelry. We need to train
family tribes for trades that allow them to cater to their own needs if
that be their preference. This would allow them to evolve and provide
for themselves, but also to know that there are options for training. It
also opens up the American culture back to the Native American culture
through art. Expression through art is a universal language and a strong
tool for education.
*Put a team together to figure out a path for the young ones to easily
apply for college, which will begin to put a dent in this wrath of
alcoholism. Build a clinic within each territory for alcohol and drug
issues.
*Allow Native Americans healthcare through our VA system. Couldn't it be
called VA/NA? Whoa Nelly!!!! Something has be done to address their
need for healthcare, and they cannot afford to figure it out! The age
limit for elders is probably 20+ years below the rest of the country.
That is NOT FAIR! It's better than creating new hospitals right off the
bat. I know, "Kevin that bill would never pass through legislation." I
get it, but if POTUS demanded action, I believe action would be taken!
Our government owes them a healthcare solution. After all, we have one
for the vets who fight for this nation, which wasn't ours to start.
I think we, as a nation, have neglected the Native Americans long
enough, and just avoided the conversation due to lack of team effort
and/or funds. If a team were chosen, and a timeline set for
negotiations, then I believe real progress can be achieved if demanded
by POTUS, and pushed by the VP. This could be an Ivanka landmark item!
Someone has to do this, and this administration is the one that can get
it done. The fact that trade around the world to/from USA is being
re-looked at further proves that the time for new businesses and Native
arts buying is upon us. Let's look at more than just the rest of the
country for new businesses, and take an equal look at our Native
Americans.
I understand that the easy way is to keep doing nothing, but we are a
better nation than that! We are THE BEST NATION IN THE ENTIRE WORLD! WE
CAN GET IT DONE FOR THE GREATER GOOD OF ALL!
America really started with the Native people. We can't change the past,
or decisions of our forefathers, but we can change the here & now. I
believe that this administration can re-write history for the future
generations, as well as inspire unity through the much needed
collaboration.
Yada,yada,yada.that's all you say.we of the tribe help you get elected and wat do you do after that nothing.so stop with the lies.ok u want D tribe's lands.for your selfs to build wat ever you government folks want.😡😠🤨 right.
Obama just to a paint brush approach to it and said this many acres need protecting. When the majority of the land wasn't settled by anyone it was just a traverse of different tribes.
walleye364 Believe me black people would love to have a paint brush of that many fucking acres of land-
The driver is more indian than any of the rest of them in the van...smh.
