- This heartbreaking video tells of The Long Walk, a tragic point in the the history of the Navajo Nation (and other native peoples of the Desert Southwest). 10,000 men, women and children were uprooted and forced to walk 400 miles to the New Mexico border in 1864. It was devastating. 80% of the tribe was lost. The Navajo Nation has never fully recovered. Please watch and learn. Lest we forget. Lest we forget.
I sure haven't forgotten. I'm a 33 year old Navajo autodidact.
Thank you for the history lesson that's never taught in school.
It’s taught in 6th grade
I'm a 6th grade teacher teaching this rn lol
Nah I got taught this in 7th
I have never heard until my grandpa tell me stories about it
We remember. We’re still here.
History isn't always beautiful but it is always a foundation to learn from. Good or Bad, Heroic or Tragic.
Thank you for sharing this historical story. I love the beautiful background music, your voice is so soothing.
Wow. Your voice is so soothing.
First of all, it's not historical. This injustice continues to this day. Get Woke, please.
Thank you for sharing such a story. May the Lord continue to guide us, and heal from our ancestors horrific experiences.
Not was a tragedy, but a genocide of Dineh people! It's very important that future generation never forget this sad history: the massacre of Navajo tribes.
Dont get me started 😡 my great great Grandparents died for NO REASON!!! Don't try to sugarcoat this like I said don't get me started. This is not a good story!
That’s Right My Brother!!!!
It was a genocide against the Diné. But they failed.
#nativelivesmatter
We’re still here >:D
I feel the word genocide deserves to be used here. No place for hypocrisy disguised as political correctness.
I will carry on this to my grave
Sad story, but great documentation.
What's the name of that mountain you show at about 1'50" and again towards the end of the video?
The pointy mountain is called Ship Rock located in Ship Rock New Mexico
Navajos were raped and killed along the way
It's better to it from the actual people. The people Dineh are still alive and well.
That was not a tragedy!,!! that was Genocide !!!
✊️
I thank you for sharing this. Idc what race you are as long as you're telling this, a book i would recommend is called Sing Down the Moon it's a great book about this.
Why not try a 2nd take?
U pilgrim s are no good We live
The teachings of Don Juan a Yaqui way of knowledge
What history doesn't know....about only a little half of Navajo population went on the long walk....like my decent never went and others too
Their population was around 10,000 and the amount of people who were forced to walk was around 8,000 the people who died was around 3,500.
We are Dine’…"Navajo" is a Spanish adaptation of the Tewa Pueblo word 🤨
Yes we are Dine’!
Yes. It's also a Spanish adaptation of an Anasazi word referring to the Diné belief in Spirit residing in the back portion of one's skull. Anabeho becomes Navaho in Spanish.
Urdichamur wadiah unarisnam
Oh yeah, don't forget the smallpox infested blankets that were given to the indigenous people 😠😡

Fake Indians are never satisfied.. Just like fake Indians changing team names.. pfft.. nothing wrong with team names..

@@nyk222 bro what are you on about?
Now, let's be sensitive... we all care... Virture signaling from a payoff with using the victim status.... You gotta be proud:
"The Yavapais "Apache" had taken the sisters, very much alive, to their village about 60 miles away, along with selected prizes from the Oatmans’ wagon. Tied with ropes, the girls had been made to walk for several days through the desert, which triggered serious dehydration and weakened them in general. When they asked for water or rest, they were poked with lances and forced to keep walking. Once they reached the Yavapai village, the girls were treated as slaves, made to forage for food and firewood. The tribe’s children would burn them with smoldering sticks while they worked, and they were beaten often. The girls, Olive later said, were sure they’d be killed. She was approximately 10 years old.
"Authorities at Fort Yuma had heard rumors about a young white woman living with the Mohaves, and the post commander was asking them to either return her or explain why she would choose not to return. The Mohaves first responded by refusing to respond, then sequestering Olive for safekeeping."
".. Olive never seemed to have found happiness, though, battling depression and chronic headaches for decades to come. On the rare occasion she left her home, she’d attempt to cover her blue tattoo with makeup or veils. "
POOOOOPPPPPy pants
