- The American Indian College Fund (the Fund) has released a new five-minute documentary video describing how the Fund improves the lives of American Indian college students attending tribal colleges and universities.
The Fund, along with its longtime Portland, Oregon-based advertising agency partner, Wieden+Kennedy, traveled to Indian country to record Native students telling their powerful stories. A team of professional cinematographers, photographers, and sound engineers toured tribal colleges and universities and attended graduation ceremonies. As the cameras rolled, students, elders, tribal college presidents, and community members described the miracles that cultural-based education through tribal colleges is producing for people of all ages.
Richard B. Williams, the Fund president and CEO, says "The American Indian College Fund video is a unique opportunity to see a very important part of Indian country. We are educating the mind and the spirit, and this it is captured in the video."
The Denver-based American Indian College Fund is the nation's largest provider of private scholarships for American Indian students, providing 5,000 scholarships annually for students seeking to better their lives and communities through education.

I love you Native American people. God bless Indians. Hello from Poland👍😊🌸💝🌸💖🌸♥️ 🇵🇱
Such beautiful songs!! They carry the nature of the land they were created in...
I'd eagerly purchase them if available.
Teach your young people to love themselves, their language and their cultural heritage. They can only succeed if they have self-respect and respect others! Community is key!

those wise words the entire humankind should follow as one community, the way things should have always been.
Beautifully done piece. I live among the Indians here in New Mexico and this will be my next charity. My father also only went to 8th grade and was one of the most intelligent men I knew. He could to recite Shakespeare for hours and Lincoln's speeches-
Be proud of what you are! Never forget your roots. Live by them! I am Greek so this is embedded in my blood and in my culture wherever I am! Your civilization is everything. Don't try to be something else - make others be like you- make others feel like Indians!
Native Americans are a beautiful people
Yes We are ☺ thanks.
@@luvuyaz They film showed some Pacific Northwest tribes as well , carving totems and weaving the basket hats.
fuchsia rose hey please don’t mind this strange comment I made..... 🙏🏽
This a beautiful film, full of beautiful people. Hope is a God given right - everybody deserves it. I love this film, thank you for posting.
Sometimes I wonder if these beautiful people are simply too good for this world. It is great to see them not give up and to fight, educate themselves and work to preserve their communities. Hopefully, native peoples around the world, who have a unique perspective, will help all of humanity come back to its senses and reject the ugly corporatism, consumerism, waste and selfishness. It would behoove us to respect them and to listen to their wisdom.
My heart cries for the injustices so unfairly imposed upon your ancestors, but glows with renewed hope from your positive actions for your future. Peace & Love 💕
NEVER GIVE UP ON HOPE , I'M VERY VERY PROUD OF ALL OF YOU NEVER FORGET YOUR ROOTS
I’m crying just knowing that my beautiful indigenous people has school and love hearing talk and the native language 🌞🌞♥️
my name is Jon Spotted Horse from the Standing Rock Nation love your people stay in prayer and sucess is what we make out of life keep positive stay focused we can do anything we set out minds to...

God Bless all college students!! Help your people, from a native american in New Mexico. We are proud of all of you. Education= power!!!!!!!
Rose sings so beautiful 😻💞
native nation no matter what I'm proud to be native
Quite beautiful. Beautiful people. I wish I could hit the lottery tomorrow n pay for everyone's tuition.
I hear you and only wish the same
Jermaine Sam I think they go to school for free. I know this guy who is half Puerto Rican and Indigenous Native American and he said they have grants for natives
That same thought has been on my mind and heart for a few days now...before I even found this. Gotta hand it to that YT algorithm lol
Infernal Soror what do you mean? That you just started to think about them? I would like to know plz bc something similar happened to me
Shouts out to all my Navajo brothers and sisters in Arizona, The most beatiful place in the world! My brothers in utah and new mexico and everywhere in the world i salute you!!!
God save all Native American Indians everywhere. They are beautiful people. Respect them, and they will respect you. Be civil to one another. Peace to all.
What a great documentary...thank you for posting it. I hope many people get to see it.
education is the only way to break cycle of poverty and survive use insight to guise
Yes, but there is more.
The drug abuse and hopelessness is directly connected to the fact that folks there lack a sense of purpose. Purpose is the fruit of life. Our unique genius is the seed of that fruit and it is encased by what we care about the most.
So education can shine a light on purpose but the sense of purpose is the driving factor.
Education is not everything good. It has good and bad as reality shows.
@@tntruther And so the genius of education is when it coincides with our sense of purpose, and therefore there is a need to stimulate this through experiences that can awaken the spirit, for we were all spirit seeds once upon a time. And the earth and the university of life are meant to proffer us the right experiences, so as to develop and mature us, so we can recognise the laws of nature, which are at the same time the laws of the Great Spirit. Then, one day, we may return to our one true home in the blessed and happy hunting grounds of Paradise.
Yes, the synergy of applying our talents and interests to the things we care about is the seed of purpose and purpose is the fruit of life but the path to the tree of life is obscured by the masks we wear seeking validation and or approval from others.
Purpose is the fruit of life and community is the soil that we plant our purpose in. The Garden is where we cultivate our trees together. In the Garden we GET to work. Outside the Garden we MUST.
Heaven and hell are states of consciousness. The door between heaven and hell is marked contempt on one side and contentment on the other and hinges on swallowing our pride.
@@timothyappleseed2986 I see purpose as the main driving force for our intentions, as it comes from the depths of our spirits, which if we allow them to speak, constantly cry out in the longing for God, and a peaceful and beautiful world. Therefore upbuilding and beautifying ourselves and community is vital to its purpose, which leads to the fruits of our efforts, where these conditions should prevail upon the earth, until finally all of us can ascend to the place of our origin, Paradise, and eternal life, free from the worlds of rebirth and dissolution, which are part of nature's cycles and linked to the Will of the Creator, the Great Spirit. Thus, the earth and the immediate beyond, where we reside between lives, in the Wheel of Reincarnation, are the real gardens, where we sow our seeds of either good (that which coincides with the laws of creation), or not so good (that which is man's self-will and stand outside the laws of creation, or nature). If man does good, he reaps blessings, but if he takes other paths, then karmic storms must one day come his way, to awaken him again to what is good, for he has thereby become a poor steward of the garden of life, that sits around the Tree of Life, around which many branches exist that contain many planes of existence, all with different densities and different distances from the original Light Source, where stands the Temple of God... and the place from which pours out the Divine Will... into Creation, to sustain and renew us. Amen!
I lived on the tuscorora rez for 15yrs and alcoholism is really bad among the natives. I have 2 beautiful native american girls and i raised them right. Their going to college them their gonna go back to the rez and teach the little kids they have options and fight for their people. Im so proud of them. I miss living on the rez.
God bless you!
Build confidence and do not lose it! Keep the peace! You are fearfully and wonderfully made!
I love native and indigenous peoples
Beautiful people. Love from one Indian 🇮🇳 to other Indians.

God bless our native people;
que agradable saber que no se rinden. Los felicito, son muy importantes para la Humanidad. saludos desde Colombia, sur América
I'm surprised the casinos don't pitch in and help the tribal college. Nice to see positive hopeful people on the reservation!!!
"A rock in the ground is the centre of the Earth, and from there I came" There is more truth in that statement than I think Rose was fully aware of.
Why would you assume that?
I LOve Native American People, i was leaving 4 years in Minnesota and they are super nice, I from Caracas, Venezuela God Bless and rebember Simón Bolivar was a good friend of Seminoles , Caracas it a name of venezuelan tribe
Lift yours heads up high ,and walk with clarity, if you trip get up and move on, native people has been doing for generations. I am proud of my people..
Much love and respect to all of you on this video
Learn modern skills,get modern education,stay away from drugs,alcohol etc,but stay close to your roots and culture....That is the key to success.Allah bless the native Indians...Hassan,Kashmir....
TOUGH ROADS ARE THE BEST TO FOLLOW , CAUSE IF IT WERE EASY EVERYONE WOULD HAVE DONE IT THANK YOU FOR BEING STRONG, AND BRAVE ANY QUESTIONS ASK THE ELDERS, THAT YOU MAY BE ONE DAY KEEP UP THE EXCELLENT WORK, NEVER GIVE UP ON NOTHING, NEVER STOP LOVING AND BEING GOOD FOR YOU
always be yourself! You are beautiful strong people and you are loved and respected. I pray for you
May your journey be long and fruitfull, filled with warmth, Love, smiles and understanding.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING YOUR BELIEFS/ STAYING TOO BETTER YOURSELF AND YOUR CULTURE/ HEAVEN KNOWS AND SEE WHAT YOU NEED/I KNOW YOU WILL ALL ACHIEVE YOUR HEARTS DESIRES/ THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING YOUR STORY'S ♡
Povo maravilhoso! ! Meu respeito e admiração! ! ❤
We must do more to help these great people!
We can't even help our own overbreeders. Why have children if you live in poverty. I know people are addicted to sex. I bet a bunch of us would have rather been aborted then live in poverty. So keep bringing life into a dying evil war torn planet. Hope it all works out for you. People are in for a rude awakening when the system collapses and there is no more government assistance. Dependence on a failing system spells doom for most of us. Hope is only good when you accept reality. Major depression is already here, so don't get your hopes too high.
Or better yet, leave them alone.
Love you Indians. You are beautiful people with a beautiful philosophy
God bless all Native American peoples.
Amen
They are a strong culture and give enlightenment to the young and old im inspired as i have watched this and i am Native to Australia
I WAS TAUGHT VERY YOUNG AND VERY VERY POOR , I CAME FROM NOT MONEY BUT GREAT KNOWLEDGE , FROM I SLEEKED OUT, THRU OTHERS AROUND ME, WHAT I HAVE FOUND OUT , YOU HAVE YOUR STRENGTHS WITH IN YOUR HEARTS, NO ONE SHOULD STRUGGLE IN LIFE WHEN YOUR SURRENDERED BY YOURS AND YOURS PEOPLES VIEWS
It is so amazing to see where Rose is this day. Sending many blessings.
I just went to the Pyramid Lake Paiute Native American Reservation in Northern Nevada. Driving through a little town on the "rez" called Wadsworth broke my fuckin' heart. It was very run down and poor. I immediately felt anger and pain for my Native people. But i know for a fact, we will rise above all the oppression and depression. Arapaho's, Apache's, Paiute's and all other Natives stand tall.. no more living in fear. Live for yourself and live free!
Parabéns. Vocês são exemplos de persistência e conquistas.
Amazing sisters please forgive me but your voice brang tears of joy tears of sorrow thank you everyone out there doing their best to become better and do better and help others transition from being stuck to being educated and do what you love one falls we help each other and the healing begins with the woman and they pass it on to the young ones then the men then to the world I love you all my family
beautiful song
What a beautiful language such a beautiful voice also..
MashAllah very nice people Allah bless you and your family and friends and country from UK
Terrific share, I love the pride of culture and the desire to build back better. The young are the way, the have investment in their ancestors scars. I pray for all people's to never fear their identity will be taken away, as you can see the situation today, it has not ended.
Native Americans and Native Canadians, , and Australian Aboriginals, all native and original peoples have so much to offer the world with their cultures. It's time the world took notice!!
Good to see some hope there. Walking forward but bringing the past with them. I wish them all the best
You can never forget the past when you're still living it hello! We own this place and we watch everyone else enjoy its best fruits so there's no forgetting.
@@AJ-lv5id I just said, bringing the past with you.... The past IS the past. I'm not getting into that whole issue with who America belongs to. I think it's clear we are past the point where the government will dissolve itself and turn the country over to the Native population. All we can do now is move forward.
AJ, It is the attitudes like yours that keep this cycle going. Exuses, excuses and more excuses why you cannot do what ever it is. Quit acting like a victim. You vote in the people that keep socialism on the reservations, the democrats. The liberals are the enemy. As far as college goes, you have to be either rich or very poor to go to college. It gets way easier after the first year. I had no help from Indian scholarships and got a Masters, my lady has a bachelors. No none is holding you back, but yourself! Just quit whining and work hard! No more excuses!
I'm so thankful for getting a scholarship this year from The American Indian College Fund, it really does help out a lot. Thank You :-) -Justin H. @Fond Du Lac Tribal & Community College, MN
Love this dont let people like that one comment mean nothing turn them a deff ear to them and smile. i want to be there right now. her voice is soo beautiful made me feal peace. native pride
I remember seeing and reading about Rose in 'Native People' magazine. Good presentation.
My heart Melts.
Beautiful, this is my people
natives should be the richest people in this country being this hole country belongs to them
I love the indigenous people of this country stay strong
💯
Natives were never about owning the land or greed it was for taking care of using only what you needed to live efficiently,happily in harmony ,and teaching the next generation that followed. We are about taking care of mother earth, and being worthy of the creator's trust with his creations .Man has poisoned this world with greed, and reckless actions. The day will come soon when man will have to answer, and accept his fate the creator knows who is not worthy of the next transition.
Good video. It's the good fight for sure. Education bring rewards, hope and a chance to become better.
I am a registered Canadian Treaty Indian but graduated with an American accredited MBA in 1998. I am currently trying, without much success, to get a relevant job in Vancouver, BC and find barriers up. I am currently considered to be "under-employed". Canadians in general are unable or unwilling to accept an Indian as an equal or, worse luck, their superior.
Awesome!! Takes a you to a place you can only find among our people an in the lives of our family. Joseph Band Nez Perce whoop whoop
No force will defeat us if we hear the song of this life ...be strounger in body than u expect the body is strong enough to to carry you, be careful of the mind it can bury us , spend time understanding you have life , live it live it live it
Awesome!!! I love this song that this young woman sings at the beginning!!! Wish I new what she said?
great video and it is the good fight, God Bless all you wonderful women and men.
This was very cool, very informative. American Indians should have EVERYTHING funded by our Government. We need to have a National holiday honoring them and their ancestors.
Gregg
As a Native American, believe the complete opposite!! I don't believe we need a holiday were American people, America history, I also believe in being self sufficient, taking of our own while still contributing to Am
❤ great great work ❤
Amen.Osiyo my friend,keep on keeping on my friend.
Struggling is part of life's success. Without it we are not strong. We may live high and mighty, but falling off is harder we fall.
Beautiful thank you
What a beautiful voice. How my I help you all to give your people the good you deserve?
A'ho brothers, sister's dream smoke manning blessing to you guys great job🐢🐢🐢🐢turtle island yes history is fascinating story tellers as well honor your ancestor music and lyrics inter tribal respect for one another's people, sky people dream smoke of past👣 and future 👣generations!!.🖖😎🤘❤love,and responsibility!!.
Good for them.
If I were an Indian I’d be proud of my heritage and do my best to show everyone that I’m a fighter also I’ll succeed.
BTW those women are stunning beautiful.
Thanks for sharing
Need more donations, payments, compensations, And charities for many Amerindians
Aho. I was in a Native American College Fund comercial back in the late 90s early 2000 and I have been trying to find it. It was filmed in Fond Du Lac Indian reservation in Minnesota. Can anyone help me?
its good to know that natives are tryn to better themselfs im a full blooded mississippi choctaw n im attending Eastern Oklahoma State College n im also the Native American Student Association President n supporters like the college fund really gives natives a fighting chance to better themselves, my dad didnt finish high school so im the first of the family to graduate high school and go to college!!!
Hell yeah....sing it Rose!!!
God bless all of them. Very good people.
We are all one and to be aware of this in life is happiness
How could anyone hurt other sentient beings when one is of the same
We can all learn from the youth making a difference today.
Blessings to our brothers to the North. May the Eagle and Condor fly together on our path for freedom. There are no racial differences.
Plight of native peoples is universal.
that gurl that sang in the intro is amazing....beautiful!!
Great video.. Hope that it inspires..thanks for sharing..
These people are inspiring
They lived in connection with the Earth, and had great knowledge of the land that sustained their populations sufficiently for eons. Unlike the Euros of the time who were killing each other over how to interpret a 4,000 year old book, scarcely bathed because the big spirit saw it as a sin, and had laughable medical practices, NA's were superior in agriculture, medicine (they had aspirin and antibiotics), and knew the connection between hygiene and health. It depends how you interpret civilized.
the most powerful weapon is the simple book! Books=Knowledge=Power!!
Thank You . . .
Thank You so much Alden C :)
One day I hope to do as much good as I can for my Native brothers and sisters.
Please respect and bring forth more Native Americans in modern day society!
Beautiful singing, I'd love to buy those songs.
Beautiful just Beautiful
Povo lindo,Deus abençoe a todos vocês, abraços.
I would love to see how you are all doing now.. please can someone lead me to the way these lovely people are.. Tangata Whenua Maori Aotearoa NZ

Beautiful song
In my culture, my uncle was a shaman and he say, " Remember this son, do not let you and your people become orphans. Remember who you are and where you come from. Remember to keep your father and great grandfathers name, so that you don't become orphans. Call to your ancestor for help and wisdom. Do not forget them too. Keep your custom and instrument, do not throw them away. Do this and you will never be lost my child." He die at age 80 of lung disease.
I didn't know you sing Rose sounds really awesome and beautiful next time I work for you sing for me
