"Sacagawea" was produced by Questar, Inc. who possesses all distribution rights in perpetuity. Written and Directed by Mr. Rolf Forsberg.
She was an expectant mother, but she endured every hardship these seasoned soldiers experienced. Without her, the Corps of Discovery would have failed. This program re-enacts her journey in her own words. Taken captive as a child during a raid, adopted into the tribe of her captors, and then married off, her adventures have only just begun. After Lewis & Clark journey to her village on assignment from President Jefferson, Sacagawea joins the expedition in seeking a northwest passage to the sea. Digging up edible roots and negotiating for horses, she saves the Corps of Discovery, time and time again.
With live-action cinematography, the Lewis & Clark journey is beautifully reenacted. The program carefully traces the journey from St. Louis to Fort Mandan in North Dakota, over the Rockies to the Pacific and back. This is the Lewis & Clark journey, in her words.

I am so appreciative of this content. Thank you for posting this gem of American history. Maybe if people started viewing our ancestors for the brave, courageous, selfless people that they were instead of persecuting them for being imperfect we could actually take pride in our ancestory, become grateful for their sacrifices, and learn from their successes and failures.
Omg what a fabulous enjoyable and non-controversial rendition of this amazing and moving story! In its telling, you have allowed us to freely learn about Sacajawea without the distraction of controversial commentary!!! How I miss this kind of pure documentary!!! I am forwarding this to all my family members who have a great love for my country and for this woman. Thank you thank you
My fourth graders just finished reading a biography about Sacagawea and this movie is highly appropriate to show. Excellent resource!!
So inspiring. You don't hear enough about her. She needs more credit. There needs to be a documentary about her.
She was 14/15 years old. Her only purpose for being with the expedition was to translate Shoshone language to her husband, who translated it to French, and a third interpreter translated it to English to Lewis and Clark. She was such a SMALL part of the expedition.
@@zsedcftglkjh- That was an important role, and she helped in other ways.
I kinda think this is a documentary on her. Amazing person. Amazing story. Before racialism or sexism we are all equal! So cool to know!
ya great father and his kin did her dirty... she was meant to be apart of the mountain rushmore.
smh. but at least shes on that coin.
@@rabbithomesteading3797 Famous historian David McCullough wrote an inspiring book about the entire expedition. great detail with pictures of many of the many objects brought back from the expedition which are still able to be seen museums along with the original journals.And also fabulous photographs taken for his book. I checked the book out from my local library. First Class!!
She is a very special young lady! What I wouldn’t give to have been there with them on this great journey. Meeting all those native people and hanging with her. If only! Great documentary! There should be an accurate film about this journey! She and the men will never be forgotten!
Thank you. Very interesting lesson in American geography, history, and survival.
what a magnificent woman she was; the expedition would have failed without her
Great job! whoever did this, did an amazing job that puts us back in time showing us the thoughts and opinions of all Americans. Sacagawea is a great woman that had a very important job, she translated but kept them alive on many occasions with her interpersonal communication skills.
Great comment. Good job says it all especially when recognized by good historical record. The good news is exploration into unknown places are still available if we explore and vote. The first real democratic vote in human history? I doubt that but it may be the first recorded. The perfect ending.
It's funny but I once heard that if you average out a thousand human guesses on how many beans are in the jar did it is almost always spot on. Just like this documentary forgive my ruminations but it was fun.
My social studies teacher assigned me to watch this
At first i didnt want to, because it was so long, but then i was like, "oh whatever, at least it gives me an excuse to not clean my room." And so i watched it, and it was great!
Your social studies teacher is lazy .. this is not accurate at all.
I was taught this kind of thing in the 1980's. I thought education had improved in thAT 40 years. guess not..
I am a San Carlos Apache and Pueblo Yaqui from Arizona living in Nevada 👍🏽👍🏽
I am the last of the Indian Fighters living in Arizona.
@@antientdude1100 There’s Indians in Arizona ?
I have an Indian Scout motorcycle. I named it Sacagewea.
Sacagawea is a legendary figure and a great American. But what we also forget is that she was a teenage girl...
i think she was 14 when stolen/sold/raped? she is the Mother of the West. THEY NEVER WOULD HAVE MADE IT WITHOUT HER.

She was amazingly tough, she wouldn’t want us to feel badly for her!
@@ninapagonakis4628 She was a human being who lived a brutal and short life ... how do you know what she would have wanted ?
shell c Just an optimistic opinion, as the overall tones of this video/depiction of her journey are heroism and perseverance. 🙃
That was beautiful.
Thoroughly enjoyed this doc about an amazing woman.
Greatest documentary on Sacagawea yet made! First time I've ever seen the L&C Expedition told from her viewpoint, in her own words. Excellent photography, giving this film a real sense of the journey. Maps very helpful, too. Glad to find a doc on this subject that isn't hyperpaced with a jumbled mosaic of unrelated scenes & settings, or that doesn't consist of childish, cartoonish imagery. Although not spoken with Native American inflections or cadences, the Bird Woman's, or "Janey's," voice sounds age-appropriate & is most pleasant to listen to. Terrific film all the way around!
An excellent overview and flyover of the Corps of Discovery. I was surprised about two matters: 1) That Sacagawea was captured by the Hidatsa on the Snake River, whereas the journals state she was kidnapped on the Jefferson River, just west of Three Forks, MT. 2) That her near death experience was overlooked. During the portage around the "great falls" of the Missouri (June 1805), she (and "Pomp") were part of an excursion with Clark, Charbonneau and York when a fierce and heavy rain storm caused a flash food in the coulee they went to escape the storm. Clark literally shoved her (and the baby) up the hill as the torrent of water flooded the coulee (while Charbonneau was frozen in fear). The captain lost his umbrella and a good compass, but Sacagawea lost all of Pomp's bedding, clothing and mosquito netting (which tortured the child thereafter).
Other than the historical error of Sacagawea's capture sight, this is an excellent and brief introduction to the Corps of Discovery's expedition to the Pacific and home. Two thumbs up!
I seriously doubt that modern man, apart from a few military trained men could endure what those men and Sacajawea endured. For starters they had to pull the boat up river for miles. At one point they ran out of food supplies and survived on candle wax. Their journey was actually incredible, lasting two years!
I’m surprised Hollywood never made a movie about it! Incredible!
Absolutely
I’ve heard that the expedition was in serious trouble when she met her brother in the middle of nowhere after many years! The odds of that must have been unbelievable,apparently she was destined to be part of the expedition.
Anyone here from quarantine for school work.
yes i am
@@Voxeltrotdoesrandomstuff same
Lol I am
Yup
Yes I am but I’m 2021
This was a great documentary. I only wish they would have went farther into what happened to York and Sacagawea’s children. This is probably the greatest adventure ever done in American history. Thank you for posting!
Came here after watching MSA .
an awesome video
Wow Clark was an amazing guy! He educated Sacagawea's son from age 4 to grown adult ! I am just starting his biography today so these 2 stories are intertwined.....
Oh. Didn't know there was a book about him.
Great narration and visuals..I loved learning more about them all, especially Sacajawea...
This helps me while studying
York was never freed. From a Washington Post article:
America remained ignorant of Clark’s heinous treatment of York for almost two centuries - until the discovery of Clark’s letters to his brother in 1988.
Don't forget she was kidnapped then a slave to her 'husband' who was already married and who got her pregnant.
Yea... That was like a handshake is today.. Dont be all PC about this...
He raped her ...and he wasn't the only one.
@@shellc6743 handshake.

@@republikadugave420 No it wasnt it was what it is today. No moral relativism but it was common, that did not make it right just like the Sammy Hemmings issue. History is not convenient
Why does she sound enthusiastic about being taken captive and then being forced to be a child bride? The narrator’s pleasant tone as she describes atrocities is jarring.
It is because the film was obviously paid for by someone who was pro government.
Gosh
Exactly my question! What the hell?!
That’s just how things were done back then. It wasn’t an “atrocity” until feminists decided it was.
TBF being taken/purchased as a bride by a foreigner was still preferable to staying a full on slave in the tribe that kidnapped her.
it's been 15 minutes and i feel this documentary is going to end the next minute
Loved this video! I teach U.S. history to 8th graders and couldn't find another Lewis & Clark video that I've shown before. I stumbled upon this one and am very glad I did. Five stars!
It's American propaganda. Please do not expose your students to this tripe.
Next year, assign a reading. The book, Bird Woman (Sacajawea) The Guide of Lewis and Clark; by James Willard Schultz.
Anyone coming from msa's sacagawea story ?
I like this video
Excellent!! Thank you for sharing this!
😑
I read the book, her name in Shoshone means water bitd.
I have the book too.
All the books and websites I've seen said bird women
@@rainy_bean8220 Otter woman was the other woman .... they don't mention her at all in this "documentary"
@@rainy_bean8220 same business
Shoshone name, Bo-i’-naiv, Grass Maiden/Grass Woman.
The baby is sooooooooo cute
I own a copy of Bird Woman by J.W. Schultz, which I trust more than this documentary.
Myself as well.
Sacagawea has a beautiful voice
i just watched this entire thing in 2021
The return to her... been looking for you along time.. that baby took his first steps in Missouri in the snow.. I will find her again and marry her type...
The biographical paperback is also very good.
What a great documentary..
This is a awesome story but some facts are not right if you go into details maybe not needed. Still awesome to learn. But the details like I am saying they didnt find a coyote. Well they did but they called it prairie wolf. Coyote is a slandered name of the Aztecs translated to Spanish. Riffles? I pretty sure muskets or what is called today muzzleloaders. Maybe flint locks. No mention of the air riffle if that is true? But this is probably not completely needed on her story! Great video and interesting to watch. TY
I think the Hdatsas gave Sacajawea her name "Bird Woman". Didn't horses come into America with the Spanish? Also firearms. Lewis had an airgun which he demonstrated to the Indians. The Southwest Indian Foundation (serves the Navajo, Hopi and Zunis) issues a catalog featuring their products and they offer this dvd for sale (80 min. Long). One book of interest (not in catalog) is by Stephen Ambrose about the Corp of Discovery called "Undaunted Courage". It is fairly comprehensive. When The group got to the Pacific, they saw a dead beached whale. Sacajawea was astounded. I own a portrait of Sacajawea painted by Mark Frederickson. Best I've seen. You can see it by going to "Fine Art America" and entering in search field Sacajawea.
"No! I told you how this had to go down for me to be okay with this!" - Donny Grande, Clark from Lewis & Clark
She was sold at twelve to a man traveling with lewis and clark.
That poor girl, so heartbreaking.
I researched sagaweah. She was 16, and pregnant. Her French husband, chabeneau, beat her. He had another wife, called the elder wife who was jealous and also beat her. Caption Clark fell in love with her, Lewis went on to commit suicide. If it wasn't for sagaweah skills, they would never survived or discover the north west passage. Her son was Tecumseh, a great chief who made treaties.
Frances Dipietro Apparently Sacagawea was not one of my ancestors. She would not have been a victim. We do not tolerate savagery. The men would have defended her...or maybe that's just when you hail from a 15 marine strong family. No abuse tolerated.
My great great grandfather was french...he traded with the indians had a crew of about 30 men with him on his expeditions...
He took louis and clark on an Expedition into Yellowstone Park
Thanks I didn't know all that
You splled sacagawea .
You splled sacagawea wrong.
Pure and angled propaganda.
Narrator sounds like she would've been happy but i bet she wasn't.
However she was an amazing person and should stand statue in every American city.
Quick question: How exactly did you come about HER words?
This is a drama, based on history. Her statements are scripted to convey her story.
I am learning so much
It is also interesting to read about Toussaint Charbonneau, husband, and his other wife Otter Woman. Toussaint Charbonneau was not a great guy, but if you think about it, many people living in the wilderness were a bit strange. Still, he was essential to her story.
well said
Otter woman was Sacagawea's mother.
I read the book Sacagawea,her husband was a jerk they couldn't really trust him and he was abusive toward her.but this was about their journey,not her personal life. This good for educational purposes.
Mildly put. I found Chaboneau to be a "dog.'
If we were taught more of our ancestral heritage, And the sacrifices our forbearers made for us, Awesome documentary.
When did genocide sound so inviting and enthusiastic?
Exactly. This is a white man's fairytale. If only the white man would have come with good intentions . . . but he didn't.
That was just a great video!! Thanks to those invoked in creating it and posting it.
It's not ... it's BS.
lewis and clark started in st charles mo a small town on the missouri river they did not start in st louis i live in st charles and know about lewis and clark
For what I have heard was that Sacagawea had a best friend named moracco and there was a girl from the other tribe she was jealous of Sacagawea but always made fun of her for have a fear of hights and for not climbing trees then when Sacagawea grew up they were having a party of some sort the girl from the other tribe told Sacagawea to come near the waterfall and when she came she was captured and rest of the story was the same as this
Msa?😆
sacagawea carried a baby on her back all the way to the Pacific Ocean and somewhere that baby thinks he discovered North America
Cool
Charbenneau wasn’t French, he was Canadian!🧐🇨🇦
Technical he was French Canadian
Awsome story😆😉
I’m still waiting for the remainder of those train rides videos.
Hi Jake: We won't be able to put up the entire western half due to annoying music claims.
Questar Entertainment So put it up on Dailymotion.
We will look into Dailymotion, as we haven't yet dipped a toe in those waters. Also, the second half of the eastern trains requires a re-edit, as the file I found cuts out Green Mountain Railroad and starts with the Pennsylvania Trolley Museum.
@@FamilyTime_TV That's disappointing...
at 33:27 the sweet voice tells how Captain Lewis was a healer to the Natives now think about what Medical supply's he had he gave the Mercury he also took it himself which drove him crazy and he was murdered in Tennessee on his way back to Washington DC
carminesilverado he killed himself most historians think
She was treated horribly by the tribe she was taken by and much worse by the trader husband. Clark tried to protect her. He even adopted her two children.
Wow I’ve never knew

Of course the Lewis and Clark expedition is very inspiring in the US history , but the real discoverers of these pathways to the West have been Monsieur Pierre Gauthier de la Verendrye , his 3 sons , Jean Baptiste , Pierre and François , plus Mr Lajemmerais and his son , also named Jean Baptiste , all of them sent in 1731 with a " commission royale de découverte " ie a letter of expedition signed by the Viscount of Maurepas minister of the king of France . During many years , they settled large relations with native tribes , Sioux , Mandanes (Mandans) , Cris ( Crees) , panis ( Pawnees ) ,Tetons Sioux , Corbeaux (Crows ) , têtes plates ( flat heads ) , pieds noirs (black feet ) et gros ventres , and many others ... they discovered the west of Wyoming , la riviere roche jaune ( Yellowstone ) , and many other places of the west . Their expedition was , 60 years before the one of Mr Lewis and Mr Clark , the real discovery of the Wild West .
Hi
"But I must not slow them down." That's a joke, right?
New research identify Sacagawea as Hidatsa and Crow. Read “Our Story of Eagle Woman” published in 2021.
it was good !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If Sacagawea 'wanted' to continue on the journey rather than stay with her own people, then Sacagawea had Stockholm syndrome... think about her husband. In this time, she belonged to him. This video makes it look like this 16 y/o girl had a choice...
I hope I'm not the only one that sees and thinks this video "presentation" is cringy. If you want to do a bio pic on Sacajawea at least let a Shashone woman narrate it. Sounds like they just plucked this girl from behind the counter at Hot Toplic.
I can’t believe that heroine was going to be on the coin of 1 dollar

Hi how you today
Good
Fine
Why am i crying 😭
She was a full member of the tribe and her young master, who owned her, gave her to a French trader....... I don't get the idea of being a full member of the tribe and yet owned. I don't understand the definition of what/which people could be owned in a tribe. The French trader must have been a really good fellow to receive such a gift..
Rusty yB , well this narrative is from a Eurocentric point of view, also sugar coated and whitewashed to make it G rated. The Indians did not have a concept of chattel slavery. Slavery was a temporary state until you were either executed, traded, or adopted into the tribe. Intermarriage was a form of diplomacy to strengthen alliances and trade relationships. In this case, marrying off a wife or daughter to a trader would help maintain a steady supply of trade goods, namely guns, lead, and powder.
@@bobbilaval6171 I've read many more historical account of what L&C wrote and found that Sacagawea's husband Toussaint Charbonneau is said to have bought her and another Shoshone woman from the Hidatsa.
How to view the Hidatsa's act of trading two women for something? Bobbi, you would be expert. Would the Hidatsa trade for goods (sell) their own women like they did with women they acquired by raid on other tribes?
@@bobbilaval6171 When Sacagawea traveled to her Shoshone origin and discovered that her brother/cousin yet lived, she was overjoyed. There's no good explanation of the basis for that joy except by inferring that he could have been killed in the Hidatsa raid on her tribe when she was taken.
Sacagawea's brother was so happy that his sister would be returned that he happily assisted the expedition with needed horses. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cameahwait
@@bobbilaval6171 Sacagewea and another Shoshone woman were not used for intermarriage to strengthen ties between the Shoshoe & Hidatsa. The two Shoshone women were traded (sold) to the French fur trader Toussaint Charbonneau. The Hidatsa and Shoshone tribes were enemies. www.pbs.org/lewisandclark/native/hid.html
@@bobbilaval6171 So Sacagawea indeed was a slave of the brave who captured her as that brave did eventually trade her away to the French fur trader Toussaint Charbonneau. L&C record Sacagawea referring to that brave in such a way to be translated as "master". So while you claim the Hidatsa had no concept of "chattel", their treatment of captured individuals qualifies them as "chattel" since those individuals could be, as you said, "executed, traded, or adopted into the tribe".
Sacajawea is my favorite Harriet Tubman she’s my favorite to😍
Whatever!! Sacagawea was 'glad' Louis & Clark took her with them? ha ha....Read the book and you'll find out what REALLy happened. This doc is a joke. Louis & Clark would have never been, if not for Sacagawea!
Is this historical fiction? Sacajawea was illiterate, so how does this account come down to us? Is it a modern myth, or is it based on a retelling? Obviously she didn’t keep a journal.
Lewis did
It is BS ... she left no written autobiography .... this is a "nice and sanitized" bit of BS.
history
this is for school
Because of their culture and the culture of the day and compared to modern times Sacagawea was only slightly aware she was a victim and abused or in harms way.
O my waaa 😭
With all gratitude I give my highest compliment to fellow human and humans, Good Job.
Good job says it all especially when recognized by good historical record. The good news is exploration into unknown places are still available if we explore and vote just as you find first real democratic vote in human history? I doubt that but it may be the first recorded. The perfect ending.

I hope your next project is who really tore down the wall Ronald Reagan or Michael Gorbachev? But if you do please take my advice and use pseudonyms and claim your from Narnia of another famous Lewis. Wait did I say good job sorry for the rabbits Trail.

She was a translator. Wtf

bones
So she was 17 or 18 when she was pregnant?!
Caroline Griffin - Yes, about 17. So?
Try 15.
That was normal back then... So yea
no she was 16
Since no one knows when she was born ..... she was probably much younger.
