    My family came to Minnesota from Norway and Denmark . They made a good life for themselves in both southern Minnesota and northern Minnesota on the Canadian border. My mother recalls coming home and finding a lumberjack in their house or Ojibway native by the Rainey River. No one locked their doors back then of course. My family accepted indigenous people as their neighbors. It is very sad what the US government did to the first peoples of North America.

      Actually, it was the Indigenous People who accepted *you* as “neighbors.” ;-)
      Whether we wanted to or not, as neighbors (whether we had accepted you or not) you were our neighbors and one does not refuse help to others regardless of their continuing perfidy and decimation of our people. This is a foundational belief of our people: We would never have left you to starve. The history of your family appears to be inextricably tied to our’s. Let us work together to acknowledge this Reality but now without duplicity and with genuine respect for our own cultures.

    I am a history junkie and a native Minnesotan so thank you for posting this great series ! My family has been in MN since before it was a state. My great, great grandfather was a pioneer in the Roseau/ Warroad area, they were very friendly with the Indians. They were neighbors. My Great grandfather spent his last days in a hospital sharing a room with an Indian man whom he had known since childhood. My parents said they literally looked like twins, and they always brought gifts for both men. I think that it is fairly obvious, ( the activist leanings of Minnesota's public broadcasting outlets) communists demand everything must be viewed through lenses of hate and "oppression" . So instead of purely contextual information we get propaganda with some history added in. All thanks to Minnesota taxpayers !

      Well said. Our tax dollars are funding 91.9 MPR where 95% of everything being said is pure left activist propaganda. The lefts mission is Marxist in nature, they separate everyone in groups of either the oppressed or the oppressor. It’s being taught in our public schools here in central Minnesota and I just wish parents would pay attention because the culture of the future starts with today’s youth, even hitler knew that.

    • @JustVinnyBlues
      @JustVinnyBlues 2 года назад +8

      Yes. Contemporary narrative is based on what I call "telescoping" history. That is, you eliminate 99 percent of human history, then draw a circle around a selected group of events. Then you create some narrative regarding those isolated events as if this is an explanation for complex human behavior. I actually cannot believe how historically ignorant Americans are these days, because they seem to blindly accept all that nonsense. You first dumb down the population historically, then you replace history with pure contrivance for some political advantage. And NPR is now a rather bizarre exercise in propaganda.

      I went to public school on St.Paul's far east side. This was all taught in our history classes through 8th grade. What was strang to me, was how the "religious" students were let out at certain times to go to their "religion" instruction classes. Those I know now, at reunions, have a whole different view of how Minnesota came about....of course age awakens reality sometimes, and I now understand why this leaving of public classes was allowed. So do they. They should make this film required each year as history class, and manditory viewing.
      I love this film, and it is how our tax dollars should be spent....reality education. Without historical understanding, people will always have misunderstanding of our current place as people knowing others that came before.

    My father was a sawmill man. He owned and operated the only mill for miles around and sawed house patterns and mining supplies. Half the houses in Crum WV have boards he sawed. The money was in the mining supplies. Especially after unions came in. Wages went up so the price of sawed goods went up. It was a rough living. I drove our old mule at age 10 hooked to logs. Take them to the cliff and undo them and send them over and down into the creek. The mill was set up close to the place the logs went over. . If I wasn't logging in the hills I was home with mom cooking dinner for the mill crew. I'm a female but dad worked us all the same.

    You can see this today with forced mandates to make the majority of the people do what a few corrupt elite want them to do. You all had a chance to start to correct this by using the Constitution to limit the power of the government and electing honest people. You all refused to.

      My friend, it is beyond “sad” to see us Natives in genuine need, starving to death and not respond in any meaningful manner to them as fellow human beings. *It is genocide.*
      Words are powerful and convey meaning. We must call phenomena what it truly is without minimizing, denying, rationalizing or in any way attempting to dress up, make more palatable etc. a horrible reality. I am not being snarky or in any way disrespectful of your personal history nor am I overstating the experiences of those who suffered horribly and remain oppressed. The Dakota Wars were the result of the desperation of the people who were not only starving but experiencing their families in such want they were dying while bountiful foodstuffs were withheld due to the US government’s refusal to release the monetary renumeration due the Dakota people simply because they could.
      It’s simply despicable. It is the systemic, institutional effort to eradicate the Indigenous which indeed by any definition is *genocide.*

    • @jsmcguireIII
      @jsmcguireIII 8 месяцев назад

      It is a fact of history that America is founded on slavery and genocide. My ancestors owned and sold slaves and before that others acted as "long-hunters" and militia to fight native attacks on the Virgina frontier. Many of these attacks were coordinated by first the French and then British interests to weaken the resistance of white settlers. "Champlain's Dream" by David Hackett Fischer has interesting information about pre-European native nation atrocities. History is full of horrible and inspiring facts more fascinating than any fiction. The real crime is white-washing history so we as a society can decide what it means going forward. So much of western history is written by the "victors" so the real challenge for historians is reading between the lines and listening to oral traditions while they still exist. @@tundrawomansays694

    I read the book North Country, the Making of Minnesota. Its difficult to imagine the Native Americans could have been treated worse any where else in America than they were in Minnesota. The dishonesty and lack of decency and integrity, that swindled the Indians out of their land was truly appalling. Even after they were swindled they very often weren't paid what was agreed and when they were paid lots of it went to the creditors who gave the Indians credit to see them through the winter months.

      its the story of the U.S. we need to demand out government acknowledge the depraved decisions it has historically...ahem... made... there was no great demand by the people to extinguish native American cultures, nations, and individuals...these were moves made in service of an oligarchy that has come and gone, but always ushered in great suffering when given unchecked primacy in the halls of power.
      we are in another such terror; ever since 1980, the oligarchy has been in control without popular impediment.
      the rights of men have suffered while the rights of corporations have soared to a position far beyond that of the mere human being.
      this is parallel to the great failure of our government to live to its stated ideals - a pervasive and permanent state of propagandist trickery that has enabled the appalling past and distasteful present and terrifying future we current inhabit.
      let's demand more humanity and less monetization in our legislature and executives...
      and reparations of some form are more than appropriate for natives and slave descendants... we gave trillions to banks over the past 20 years, lets give some money to the people trampled by the forces enabled by those banks since the capitalist revolution of the early modern period...
      and continually trampled...
      for _profit_?
      wtf. how pathetic.
      sorry, I just agree with ya bro.
      But it is somewhat important to understand that the US government is not a representation of the people, despite what it continually claims. I think you will find that, throughout human history, the respect generally possessed for Native American peoples by the masses is betrayed by those in power... ya know, for their own enrichment and visions of grandeur...
      they need to be shamed.

    There seemed to be two philosophies in direct conflict with eachother. This honestly changed the world forever.
    One philosophy was: We belong to the land. We are a part.
    And the other was: The land belongs to us. We deserve a part.
    As you can tell, the second philosophy took major foothold, and, as a consequence, saw no consequences/had no considerations for its greed, just greed for greeds sake. I wonder if this is a part of human nature, as we still see this kind of thought process taking part today, whether that be through war or pollution.

      that's based on the geography work of William Cronon - see his book "Changes in the Land" for details. "Changes in the Land: Indians, Colonists and the Ecology of New England" is a 1983 nonfiction book by historian William Cronon. So Cronon argued that the concept of wilderness needs to be changed. This has been corroborated by the big agricultural ancient cities now discovered in the Amazon rainforest. Essentially there was more like "gardening" in the rainforest. But that kind of polyculture farming respected the diversity of ecology much better than huge Monsanto Cargill soybean "farms."

    The introduction of the horse to Central America by the Spainards about 1505 could have been covered in more detail. This had a major impact on the native tribes. Lacking a native beast of burden and without the invention of the wheel in the Americans, horses were adapted for use in North America. Mobility was added to the tribes from what had been lacking prior.

The arctic is about to go ice free for the first time in 3 million years. Nuclear apocalypse threatens to wipe out the ozone layer that protects Earth from UV radiation. Certainly the "anthropocene Era" of science is too optimistic since biological annhilation is accelerating on to geological destruction as well.

      The fur trade on the East Coast of North America started by the French in the early 1600s and the fur trade relied on alcohol and guns to cause the native indigenous people to attack each other. But the main force was the huge masses of white colonists flooding into Minnesota - especially the German land colonialists settling right onto Dakota reservation land. For example the Treaty of 1805 by Pike was not a real treaty - he was not an official treaty maker. He just had 60 kegs of booze and he convinced two Native males to sign on some paper.
