@alexandraayeone1470 you have obviously never watched his full videos. He has talked about the racism, betrayals, back stabbing, horrific stuff the whites did to natives throughout his videos and how it justified some of their actions and alot of their beliefs against white settlers.
@@alexandraayeone1470I'm guessing you must've missed the part where he says that Fanny learned WHY the Lakota were doing what they were doing. That, or you just didn't care. He gives both sides their due when it comes to presentation without unduly favoring one over the other.
Great video. My grandmother who lived with us was born in 1898. Knowing her and Fanny walked this land at the same time just shows this was really not that long ago.
I've seen a lot of her story but this one was very detailed and of course your ability to tell a story is what sets you apart thank you for sharing with us
She was with the Lakota for 5 months. She wrote a book that sold very well. Sued the government for what they lost when attacked and received $10,000. She bought a mansion in Massachusetts and died a wealthy woman.
I love your short stories about the American Indian. I've lived most of my life in ND and SD. I've ridden the highways and byways on motorcycles to the tune of 500k+ miles and had many close Indian friends. Learning more of the history on the Great Plains is invaluable. Thank you and keep the stories coming. A video on Legends and Myths would be great, too.
I have debated whether or not I want to dive deeper into the Lakota as a full series like I have done with the Apache and Comanche. There are so many great stories to hit. If you have any book recommendations on legends or myths I would take it.
@datesanddeadguys legend of the white buffalo. There's also legend of the Tall Man but Jack Osborne researched this and got the Bageezzus scared out of him that he discontinued his video series, a couple of decades ago. The land where his encounter was out by Prairie Knights Casino south of Mandan ND. I've ridden this area a lot and there is a creepy feeling you get going around a certain hill. I haven't read many books on the Lakota Sioux just more word of mouth from the Indians that live and grew up here.
Totally! I can't tell if it's CGI or watercolour, but they're great - though l didn't like the pieces depicting the women as idealized beauties. Does that make them more worth caring about?
That was a choice I made on purpose. Throughout Fanny’s story it is clear that she gains favor from Ottawa, Jumping Bear, and others because she is beautiful. I don’t know that I emphasized it correctly but that is why it was included.
A lot of the times warparties were made up of young men from several bands. The raid on the Kelly wagon train was a multi-hundred mile trip with 200 warriors. There is a lot of moving parts. All it would take is warriors looking out for their own interest. Many men, like the women, hung around forts looking for rations. There likely was reward in it for him.
@@thechiefwildhorse4651 Women, even us white women have the absolute right to tell our own stories, you of course have the right to either disbelieve them or even not read them or watch these videos. I do not believe every detail of Fanny’s account, just like I didn’t believe every detail of “Bury My Heart At Wounded Knee” Merry Christmas 🎄
I really enjoyed this incredible story! I have read a lot about the tragedies of the Indian wars! Not just for whites but for the native Americans also! Thank you for sharing this!
My father was Ukrainian and a prisoner in Flossenburg concentration camp 1941 to 1945. In 1948, he married my mother, an Austrian orphan raised in Germany during ww2. Terrible things happen in life, but people survive and life continues. Only the strong survive and find peace with those they struggled against.

Thank you! Excellent narration of a captivating biography. I am grateful to have learned about Fanny Kelley. Look forward to seeing more of your videos.
Great job with this video! The way Fanny learned of her niece's death was gut wrenching. You strike the right tone for these stories, making sure to account for the Indians' perspective.
That was, as always, absolutey fascinating. Your wonderful videos tell me of a part of American history that I know next to nothing about. Thank you for your hard work this year. Like so many, I have watched, enjoyed, and learned much from you. From Moscow I send you much love and wish you a very Merry Christmas. May God bless you and keep you always.

@@SvetlanaVladimirova8590 yes, I have copied and sent my family members your comments on several occasions. They have no idea what is going on, what they think they know is mostly lies. I pray for you and your countrymen. Merry Christmas
Although I am glad that Fanni survived, it’s very sad how the proud people of North America and Canada were wiped out and forced to live under European rule and were slaughtered as more settlers came. The story of human kind to conquer and be conquered over and over again to this day it’s still happening.
Describing the Shaw and little scalp with fair hair on the Blackfoot Indian, made me choke up and shed a tear. I say this as a former marine and father of a little fair haired daughter.
That poor little girl that was scalped and killed. How very sad! I mean I know you can defend your home and property, but children should be off limits! No matter who you are!
I appreciate your effort in telling this story but there are some inaccuracies concerning the Lakota. The Blackfeet are not part of the Sioux tribes, they are a completely separate tribe of people and were not allied to the Lakota. Also Sitting Bull was not an Oglala, there are seven bands and Oglala are only one band. Sitting Bull was Hunkpapa.
I agree with your point on Sitting Bull. I could have swore I double checked that when I was writing but it is clear I made a mistake. However, I am correct about the Blackfoot. There is a separate Blackfoot Confederacy a little to the west of the Sioux but there is also a band of Sioux called the Blackfoot. Same name but different people.
Times people get the wrong interpritation of war chiefs. War was the last option when all other alternatives dont plan out. My grandmother's cousin told me this because one of my ancestors was a Native American war chief. She was an intelligent woman. Greatly missed, she passed away at 97. God bless her. She had paperwork to provide who my ancestors were, but sadly, a family member aquired them im not on good terms with. Go figure 😢🙄
Many of the Paintings are AI. For this story I used a lot of paintings from George Catlin, Charles Marion Russell, and Frederic Remington but I supplement with AI. Most of images including Fanny (with the exception of old prints or the ones from her book) are from AI.
Interesting story, Clash of Cultures. A hard and unforgiving life by todays standards. Thanks for sharing this adventure. I enjoyed the pictures you included. It helped to tell the story. Good job, what is next? Captain Sameul Brady?
What an amazing video. Many thanks. Often, accounts of the Lakota and other Indian tribes are romanticised in fiction, which is where I learnt most of the history of the native Americans. Fanny's story depicts the reality too starkly and it's not a pretty picture. True, the Indians were driven by vengeance after multiple betrayals by the white intruders, but I think their cruelty towards all went too far and eventually brought their own destruction. What a shame. I truly believe that the Indians of America were destroyed gratuitously by the incoming Europeans. It was the greatest genocide in history and no one really talks about it. Their story is a tragedy and Americans have a lot to answer for. Will they ever see justice? I doubt it!
Thanks for watching. Something I try to do in these stories is leave viewers with the understanding that there are people on both sides of these conflicts. They have their own perspectives, ambitions, cultures, and all of it plays out in that context. In a lot of ways the individuals, like Fanny, are just caught in the machine of history. She was just a person living her life. As in individual no where near responsible for the larger conflict between the U.S. and Lakota. But it plays out all around her.
What happened to the natives has happened to many tribes of ppl on every continent. It was nothing new, maybe though, in some ways, more civilized. Certainly more civilized than what many of those tribes would do to their neighboring tribes. In the end, none of it is new. My ancestors that were possibly concurred at one time... they will never get an apology. They will never experience any sort of restitution. Best we humans can do is pickup where we are at, and be better going forward.
I appreciate that the Lakota are portrayed realistically. I spent time in Warm Springs, Oregon at the Reservation. I was horrified at the way those people treat their horses. They call them, "Shitters." In the hot summer, over 100 degrees, they load a trailer with as many horses as they can crowd in. With no room to move and no water or food the horses are driven over 3 days to Mexico. The survivors are used in rodeos. Such cruelty.
She's a great story but not one I have covered yet. I hope to one day branch out a bit from my niche on Native Americans. Stuff like that would be fun.
This is the only story I heard about a captive person by the Indians that wanted to return. You should tell stories about the children who were forced to go back and even ran away just to get back to the Indians who kidnapped them.
I was actually just thinking about this a couple days ago. I have covered Cynthia Ann Parker on this channel. But she was kidnapped when she was nine. Same with Hermann Lehman who was really resistant to returning. Mary Jamison was kidnapped at 15 and integrated into the tribe. I might do one on her or Olive Oatman.
I'm hoping some how some way I can find out who he was and when he lived. I understand it's very extensive and costly to find out. Sadly only way I know is id have to connect with an agency residing in Canada.
Lots of people use DNA companies like Ancestry to learn about their heritage and link up with relatives, distant and closely related. It's worth a try!
The attitude toward the abuse of women in the 1800s led many of these narratives to leave it out almost entirely. When they don’t, code words like “utterly degraded” would be used. Fanny makes little mention of it but that would be par for the course. There are other examples of wives being abused when captured and their husbands leaving them on their return.
What i love about your videos is how you always present the good, bad and ugly of both sides of the stories. Great work and much appreciated.
No he presents it on behalf of the "poor innocent white gentle folk"
Actually LISTEN to how he speaks

I can’t imagine the stress and sorrow. 😢 Such a well narrated story depicting the horrors of real life during that time. Sobering recollection.
What a harrowing life she must have led. I cannot imagine a stronger woman. Thank you for her story.
She was with the Lakota for 5 months. She wrote a book that sold very well. Sued the government for what they lost when attacked and received $10,000. She bought a mansion in Massachusetts and died a wealthy woman.
She was sleeping with an Indigenous Man
She was never captured
Also She died living on a trust fund stolen from Indigenous Lands

Awesome. I hope these stories work well as podcasts. Thank you. Merry Christmas.
At about 5:00, he says Sitting Bull was Oglala. Sitting Bull was Hunkpapa.
Both are Lakota but different bands.
You are correct. I could have swore I double checked that before I wrote it into the script.
I would advise reaching out to The Lakota Nation to ask permission to make these stories up based on non Indigenous word

Have you done a video of what happens when a Native American woman gets kidnapped by colonisers? Would love to see that too
As far as I know, Sitting Bull wasn't an Oglala but a Hunkpapa.
Would you please write about Kit Carson and the men closest to him like Peter Joseph who is buried next to him ? Thank you for this store!
I think that the Badlands that were crossed, before they crossed the Yellowstone River, was the North Dakota Badlands.
This is the only story I heard about a captive person by the Indians that wanted to return. You should tell stories about the children who were forced to go back and even ran away just to get back to the Indians who kidnapped them.

Same with Hermann Lehman who was really resistant to returning. Mary Jamison was kidnapped at 15 and integrated into the tribe. I might do one on her or Olive Oatman.
Great video as usual but far too many ads. Unbearable
Poor wee Mary 🥺
Sitting Bull was a Hunkpapa Lakota, not an Oglala
The part about the fort wives and mixed race sioux children was interesting.
❤it was so great hearing this story wow blow my mind nice 😊 2024. Philadelphia
Blackfoot are not related to the Lakota.
Not the ones you are thinking of. There was a band of Lakota called the Blackfoot. Separate from the Blackfoot tribe.

But indeans are peaceful and loving and kind and they love animals and the earth and would never do any bad stuff ever.
I can't imagine how her husband would have felt, imagining what those native Americans might do to his poor fanny
