This is exactly the kind of stuff I want to be a part of. If we can heal our mother we can start to heal ourselves, and maybe eventually heal the current traumas people face and our history.
globalization, "build-back-better", "the great reset" and "the fourth industrial revolution" threatens to eradicate permaculture and all indigenous practices. we all need to be vigilant.
Africa is a continent and it’s definitely not common practice throughout every single country. Also permaculture has been used for thousands of years all around the world before western agricultural practices became the standard.
Permaculture Design is based upon the study of many indigenous practices that were invented by native peoples to adapt to their particular local ecosystems. Permaculture Design is different in that it's more of a meta-study of what has worked where and seeks to share best practices and best species.
This is so important. "Permaculture" practices aren't new. But the name and marketing are, along with their restriction to primarily white, moneyed audiences. All of the practices outlined in permaculture are practices that have been used around the world for thousands of years, and were only forced into decline by white colonialism - and this is being further perpetuated by current colonialism and the rebranding of Indigenous practices for wealthy eco audiences (mostly white) and holding them behind paywalls. Thank you, Rob, for doing your best to continue to learn and using your power to bring awareness, repair damage, and create a more just world.
@Linkola Based on your tone, I'm assuming you don't actually want an explanation. But for anyone else who's genuinely curious: How permaculture is restricted from non-whites: generational wealth and continued oppresion --> pay gaps, and the extensive majority of in-depth permaculture education being fairly (if not extremely) costly (think permaculture certification courses, etc). Modern western practices are absolutely more costly to start with. But they're the practices with nearly endless free information available, and supported by government subsidies. AND it's all inaccessible. Hence why farming is becoming increasingly white (you can literally google this), and big ag is pushing out small farms (another easy internet search). How colonialism forced Indigenous practices into decline: genocide & destruction of Indigenous culture and knowledge, removal of people from the lands they've stewarded and come to know deeply over tens of thousands of years. Modern farming and gmo crops are part of colonialism (look into Monsanto & other big ag convincing small farms around the world to buy their seed for cheap & eliminating local heirlooms, thereby forcing reliance on gmo seed). Huge corporations would not have reached into these communities without colonialism. "Every ethnic group had their own ... methods, including whites, arguably more so than many non-white groups": so white peoples, who form a much smaller population than the sum of non-white people, somehow had more sustainable "practices and methods" than "many" people all over the rest of the world? Who had & have been living there just fine for at least as long? I'm struggling to see how that statement could be arguable by any angle besides white supremacy. "Pathetic government/corporate toolbags like yourself": ... corporations are literally the cause of the continued exploitation that keeps Indigenous people off their native lands and from practicing the farming styles they've practiced for millenia, and governments are the ones sanctioning, subsidizing, and enforcing corporations ability to do this at everyone else's expense. So...
@Linkola Ah, so we are taking the white supremacy argument, and Indigenous people in what's now called the US definitely loved us white people showing up and didn't know how to live well before we came in, and white people have always known best, and the government and corporations totally want people talking about #LandBack and how the government is designed to enforce white supremacy and colonialism... Got it :) I'll just leave this here then.
Linkola A correction, though minor does indicate a bigger problem with your overall approach. Domesticated horses weren’t shown to the Natives, that implies that the horses were there already there but weren’t domesticated. Horses were introduced to Natives by the Spaniards, then used by the Lakota and other tribes for transportation after their introduction.
Is that so? I learned much of what I know by watching a free online course, in the internet by Australian Geoff Lawton, which included quite a few videos. Did not even sleep for three days watching video after video. I don't need much sleep. Then got started transforming my 1/3 acre property based on what I saw. Borrowed library books, so I cost to me was all of ZERO. Even if I had lots of money, why pay for things that are free or pay someone to do it for you. I'm not into excuses.
@@carmenortiz5294 That's awesome that you had access to that! I actually started out in a very similar way (Eric Toensmeier's books). Unfortunately, plenty of people around the world (including more than many assume even in the US, where I live) don't have access to the same time and resources we've had access to. Additionally, part of the issue is who we're learning these skills from in the first place. I've learned tons from both of the authors we've mentioned, but why is it that white men seem to be the face of these skills that have been practiced around the world for ages? Still, it's awesome to see others learning new ways to grow! Can I ask where in the world you're growing?
Thank you for offering exposure to this very common yet suppressed way of life. Permaculture principals have different names but are practiced around the globe by those that match those core belief systems: living in harmony with the planet and interconnected environment. The 'younger generations' think its new because standards of living changed as well as the focus on established norms...we are now seeing that we can change the norms. We can bring the reality we want to see, in harmony and compassion, by bringing back these practices. Blessings on your journey, will add my support. I rather 'my money' or better put energy go to more selfless outlets like these. Thank you 🙏🏽🙌🏽
I am so glad to hear that they are doing this. I have thought many times that permaculture could be a huge help to people on reservations, because a food forest is something that grows better and better over time with minimal effort.
According to the video, their people have been doing this for thousands of years. White people just named it permaculture and acted like they discovered it. Much like the United States
I started searching for ways to provide for our native brothers and sisters up here in Alaska... Though we'd need a substantial green house like a grow dome... But stumbled on this. I'd love to incorporate a community garden of sorts to improve the health of our rural communities.
Is amazing ancient native American From Indonesian Wong Jowo Ojo lali jowone Wong Indian Ojo lali indiane We ancestor is the great Semoga lestari adat budaya Leluhur kita semua yg mewariskan Peninggalan yg terbaik untuk anak cucunya 😍 Leluhur yang bijaksana
Yet there are so many who want to reach out to help. We cannot control what our government did to indigenous people, but we can offer our love & support for their future.
Thank you for sharing Rob, nice to see an alternative movement towards unity of humans as well as in paying it forward to our unique snowglobe that is Planet Earth.
I have always loved the Indigenous Peoples. My best friend was Chief Strong Horse years ago back East. Now I live in SW Arizona & garden with the love like the True People have for the land & Mother Earth. My heart will always be with them. Judi
Great video and thank you for sharing their story. Guns and money will never make a brotherhood. Creating, working together, and sharing is the only path to spiritualism. It is very hard for people to put aside their hate and miss trust but these folks did. This is the beginning of the brotherhood of regenerative farming.
Assuming you are in the USA, check out Green Gregs channel. He is trying hard to help bring folks together into self-sufficient tribes. You and your land might find many willing and able partners. Wish I was in the USA too, anyone able to sponsor?
You have so many options, depending on time frame and budget, you could watch yt videos on the first things to think about with a permaculture design, and work on it as you learn, you could hire a permaculture designer, or get your own PDC ;)
This made me feel so relieved for these beautiful people, and for all of us! I am so grateful for the love and action of the most intelligent thing I can think of to insure health and quality of life for not just people, but all living beings!
Great video. The ideas of striving to deepen relationships, addressing trauma, low cost approaches, and accessibility really resonated with me. Thank you. Please develop more videos like this.
I am so in love with differnt Native American gardening practices throughout North, and South America. The tiers in the Andes are incredible, a true wonder of the world! I am starting a little milpa this year, and I am also adding charred wood, as the American Natives used this in many places to make the soil more rich. It is the native practices that I truly want to focus on, even as many native plants as possible! 6:10 I want to say, we all started as indigenous from somewhere...not a positive or kind comment she made there, but i can understand wanting to set the record straight
I am a Northern Cherokee and I get what she is saying about injustices and whatnot. Black people are the most common subject for cultural and other injustices, but what is being spoken about for the Native Americans? My Cherokee ancestors went on The Trail of Tears, yet our Northern Cherokee tribe centered in Oklahoma and Missouri isn’t even federally recognized. That is an injustice. So much of our culture was lost on that Trail as well as lives. Ours were 1 of 5 major tribes that welcomed the colonials and we were betrayed. Where is the justice for our tribe?
Started listening to the video and and heard where it was taking place, and was in disbelief that its somewhere I've been and know about. The state I live in, South Dakota.
This really pushes me to want to start creating cuttings of fruit trees and help heal the earth. You are so inspiring. Oh course i will only grow what should naturally grow here.❤❤
in unity... to #LandBack, healing, and a return to the ways of the circle. Yes, Permaculture is what Indigenous Nations have been practicing for thousands of years! Decolonizing : )
That's a good idea my Stepfather Moises Huanosto is from Mich7⁷n and came from a farming family he taught me alot in farming gardening..using manure and overturning soil and bringing forth fruit
That depends greatly on where you are from? If you're able to contact whoever is in touch with whichever 'movement' you are referring to? Typing 'can I volunteer' is simple."Showing up to volunteer is the trick" ✌️
I'm Native I have a cattlepanel green house..I have planted All corn , potatoes peas..onions tomatoes most from seeds..I had to find resources..I never gave up..Mother Earth..Did all the rest..🌎☀️🌚
I believe community with spirituality is the road we need to want to take. By spirituality, I mean .to hold each other accountable for our actions .. to stay humble and stay respectful... then as we heal these things like growing food and healing cultural trauma with be a thing of the past. I've been sober 20 years .. I have learned, I believe the root of all problems is lack of spirituality.
Hi. I read that the Hopis plant their corn seeds 6 to 18 inches down into the ground. Here in Guatemala, we often lose our crops because of the lack of water... Is there a special 'brand' of seed we have to buy to get the same results as our native 'cousins' ? Thank you for answering!
My kids and have been doing survival for too long. That's all I know how to do, it seems But I want to be with others that work hard and wish to enjoy life at times and not just keep surviving Please can we be added to all of you?
I notices some are drinking Mate, originally from Argentina,Uruguay and Southern Brazil. Where people collecting the leaves in Argentina are getting pennies for a very hard hand labor work hence people that do that work are very poor.Now Yerba Mate is sold around the USA to astronomical prices for a very small package, used to be a very low price herb, when I was a little girl growing up in Buenos Aires, that’s a thing of the past now, thank to globalization 😐
And they suffer. It is not just past tense. Past actions have ensured their present and future discard and sense of casting off. We shove them in corners when ag. has everything to learn from indigenous knowledge.
Why would you blame another group of oppressed POC for the erasure of natives’ suffering and not the people causing it? Especially when well known activists in that group have routinely made emphasis on the plight of indigenous people as a platform of their activism. Just remember that in the history of America, Black people were the first to extend the hand of solidarity to natives, even when ppl who looked like them were still enslaved on reservations. This isn’t the oppression olympics, direct your frustrations where it belongs.
Elderberry Jamz cuz you all should be kissing the feet of native Americans. And also, watching the videos where people scream that they ancestors were suffering, they should remember that there is another group of people that was suffering more and faced genocide more than Jews during the Second World War. But I’m not blaming them, I just said that everyone like media forgot that. Also, don’t put your negative thinking into my actions. I never have been to USA and don’t know what is going on there. But I know history. Good luck in your fight. Please also help women in Africa, I have a lot of refugee friends, the horrors that women are facing there .... it’s beyond :( I’m trying my best to save the world...
Jonesy James Christmas tl;dr. So basically you have no idea what you’re talking about? Good to know, I’ll be sure to ignore anything else you have to say
Rob I would love your opinion on the coming food shortage. China's dams are overflowing and destroying their rice crop. 2021 will be the start, would love to hear a perspective from your 'abundance mindset'
People say things like "we need more love", "we need more humanity", "we need to reconnect with Mother Nature" ... But those are just empty words that have no clear meaning. Personally, I care about access to nutritious food, clean water and a relevant education for everyone. I want the end of war, less crime, the end of poverty and the reduction of inequality. Also, because we are social animals, I want people to be touched when they are young and later in life feel that they are part of a group. But this group doesn't need to be a bunch of hippies that build earthships out of tires... Don't get me wrong, I'm glad they can show what can be done with little means and some work. Experiments like those are great and we can learn from them. I would support any group that works to protect and preserve our habitats so that humans can thrive on planet earth for generations. But sustainable living doesn't require us to scale down and rely primarily on traditions and knowledge of our ancestors. I personally would prefer to use the best of science and technology and apply it for social concerns. I believe we need a discussion about the future of humanity, about what kind of lifestyle/standard of living do we want and about what kind of progress would we be happy to work towards. Rob is showing lifestyles that seems to suit its needs well... But it is far from what I'm hoping for when I look forward. I would add that science and technology are not evil and they are not in direct opposition with "nature" (whatever this term means to you). Science is just a method for understanding how the world works, and it has been used to some extend by indigenous people when they (for example) tried to organized their crops. Technology is just the applications of science and here our objectives are important. What are your objectives ? Side note: Who cares if indigenous people were doing permaculture long ago. Permaculture is just an umbrella terms for a multitude of practices and landscaping arrangements and by itself doesn't tell you anything about the way you should manage your food production or distribution. It is just one of many tools we can use.
That’s how us human race should be no colour just peacefully community’s living life using our hands growing and sharing it’s the rich Wealthy and msm who are putting the devide between us we are humans first we are the only species which have to pay to live and we should not take it we have to work hard for money and debt which our governments spend on our behalf which makes us work hard jobs to pay for there debt our labour should be use to take care of each other and share what we grow and help one another in times of need not to fund government spending on war machines to invade some country who only want the same as we all want to live free in gods earth and grow and forage from nature 🙏🏻👏🏻🤔🏴🇬🇧❤️
Don't like the implicit anti 'white' language in this clip. Every culture (Europe included) practiced sustainable agriculture for thousands of years before industrial agriculture.
We of all races are victims of the economic system and of our ancestors losing part of their land, moving away from their home land to escape poverty or oppression, or watching whatever land they were born on get stripped of its vigor. There exist the few rich who benefit from the status quo, every land has those people, and each year on our land those rich get even more diverse as greed and survival do not discriminate. I have no ability to sympathize with any movement that continues in perpetuity to focus anger or ill-will toward one race as the cause of their problems. Most people, including those with darker skin, have European ancestors somewhere in their lineage, and the vast majority of European countries did not participate in abusive practices but their people came here simply for economic opportunity and/or to escape oppression in their homelands as people continue to come here today for those reasons. It's just common sense that if we are ever successful in taking down the system, then I should expect rage to be centered at all people of the "wrong" skin color as a way of payback. In fact, it just means I have to be against system change until this tune changes.
It is not necessary for you to be against change. We are all one people and how you treat people today will be reflected in how people treat you tomorrow. Go out of your way to pay it forward with kindness and joy and it will come back to you.
Unfortunately, they had NOT been doing it. They did in the past, which is a shame. I'm part Taino, a group that the US claimed Columbus made extinct, although Tainos were showing up in Puerto Rico in the census of the 1700's early 1800's until the category changed to include everyone not born in Spain. The US did want another pesky treaty, when they invaded in 1898. I live in Central Minnesota, in land that used to belong to First Nation people. I transformed my 1/3 acre into a REAL permaculture food forest/wildlife habitat, from what was decades old lawn. Pulled all by hand because I use zero chemical, and planted much of what is here. Birds came with seeds from other places and did their part. I started when I was 59, ending this year, at 73, when it is basically a "jungle" with all kinds of edible, from regular vegetable to all kinds of wild edibles and fruits. This does not look at all like a barren piece of land. It is as far as it gets from a desert with little water, even in the middle of a drought. Hate to say it, but I had no help from anyone and I'm all of 5 feet tall, so EXCUSES ARE NOT HELPFUL or playing victim. If what some people are saying were true, then ALL reservations would be green, full of trees and all kinds of plants for humans, insects, birds, etc. I had my share of being treated like trash. The current mayor, lost his full time job because he did nothing about the treatment I was receiving in the store where he was manager for years. Plus, the District manager was given a warning. I stood in front of the guy during his "retirement", new manager introduction party. I'm not some one that allows being stepped on. I gave him multiple warnings, he must have thought I was kidding. If I sound rash, that is my intention. The so called white man is NOT going to all of a sudden become kind and generous, so the only people who can change things have to stop with the excuses and get on with what they know they should be doing. I was NOT put in this planet to be touchy feelly. My mission, and believe me, I truly believe I was given a mission at birth, is not to make excuses. I hope that some people there, read what I am writing here. And get to DOING.
@@justinfilipovic8939 I have thousands of milkweed plants (they spread) including 5 types. Monarch are not the only one that like them, so do other insects. Some people were worried because I was pulling some of the plants at the end of the season. Most of my wildlife area is in the back yard which is fenced, but the front is not.
I feel the need to point out the obvious, white people are also indigenous to earth (not north America) and they have been growing food also for a very long time. Native Asians that walked to north America are also not from north America even if they are called native Americans. None of this is really unique to any race. There is only one race, which is human, and it is time we work together for a better future.
"Aho mitakuye oyasin" 🦅 Absolutely fantastic to see the big proud Lakota Sioux Nation pulling resources together to eventually obliterate poverty on Pine Ridge. 🦬
This is exactly the kind of stuff I want to be a part of. If we can heal our mother we can start to heal ourselves, and maybe eventually heal the current traumas people face and our history.
Please share more Green Culture like this!
Me too...
Sitting in an office, reading and writing is becoming less and less appealing..😖
I African and I am also surprised about the "new concept of permaculture". In Africa we have used that practice for ages.
globalization, "build-back-better", "the great reset" and "the fourth industrial revolution" threatens to eradicate permaculture and all indigenous practices. we all need to be vigilant.

Not new to Indigenous Peoples of the Americas just reclaimed in portions through ancestrial intelligence.
Apparently, it's now a European discovery.
Good that you're using your platform to acknowledge different voices within permaculture Rob.

Thank you so much for sharing this !! I’ve been dreaming of doing something like this for a long time

Beautiful, thanks for sharing!!!))
Really amazing, thanks for sharing this knowledge
This was very interesting.
Thanks for sharing this.
Great video Rob, thank you!
Thank you for making this video and sharing.
Started listening to the video and and heard where it was taking place, and was in disbelief that its somewhere I've been and know about. The state I live in, South Dakota.
Howdy! All reservations in "our state"-(🤔).Are like anywhere: it just depends on who you know & where you go.✌️
Great video- would love to learn more about this
Syd, is a cool dude..I'll help him out again, the next time I see him.✌️🙂
I am overjoyed
As was I, being there.✌️
Thank you 🥰
Cool, that’s beautiful
Yes 🙌🏾
This really pushes me to want to start creating cuttings of fruit trees and help heal the earth. You are so inspiring. Oh course i will only grow what should naturally grow here.❤❤
We so badly need to give the land back to the rightful caregivers.
wish everyone could see this

I believe community with spirituality is the road we need to want to take.
By spirituality, I mean .to hold each other accountable for our actions .. to stay humble and stay respectful... then as we heal these things like growing food and healing cultural trauma with be a thing of the past.
I've been sober 20 years .. I have learned, I believe the root of all problems is lack of spirituality.
i love this!!
Hi. I read that the Hopis plant their corn seeds 6 to 18 inches down into the ground.
Here in Guatemala, we often lose our crops because of the lack of water...
Is there a special 'brand' of seed we have to buy to get the same results as our native 'cousins' ?
Thank you for answering!
My kids and have been doing survival for too long. That's all I know how to do, it seems
But I want to be with others that work hard and wish to enjoy life at times and not just keep surviving
Please can we be added to all of you?
hi Rob I'm really like your work and really want to meet you In person, hope
🙏🏼🙏🏼👍🏻❤️🙏🏼
AWESOME
I love the quote. “We all come from the same tribe, The Human Tribe” ❤️
👍👍👍👌♥️☺️
😘
I notices some are drinking Mate, originally from Argentina,Uruguay and Southern Brazil. Where people collecting the leaves in Argentina are getting pennies for a very hard hand labor work hence people that do that work are very poor.Now Yerba Mate is sold around the USA to astronomical prices for a very small package, used to be a very low price herb, when I was a little girl growing up in Buenos Aires, that’s a thing of the past now, thank to globalization 😐
How can I volunteer?
Love it 💖🥺 with Blm everyone forgot how much native Americans suffered, they suffered more than any other nation/ race in the history of human kind.
And they suffer. It is not just past tense. Past actions have ensured their present and future discard and sense of casting off. We shove them in corners when ag. has everything to learn from indigenous knowledge.
Why would you blame another group of oppressed POC for the erasure of natives’ suffering and not the people causing it? Especially when well known activists in that group have routinely made emphasis on the plight of indigenous people as a platform of their activism. Just remember that in the history of America, Black people were the first to extend the hand of solidarity to natives, even when ppl who looked like them were still enslaved on reservations. This isn’t the oppression olympics, direct your frustrations where it belongs.
Ana Hansen I didn’t know that, never been to USA
Elderberry Jamz cuz you all should be kissing the feet of native Americans. And also, watching the videos where people scream that they ancestors were suffering, they should remember that there is another group of people that was suffering more and faced genocide more than Jews during the Second World War. But I’m not blaming them, I just said that everyone like media forgot that. Also, don’t put your negative thinking into my actions. I never have been to USA and don’t know what is going on there. But I know history. Good luck in your fight. Please also help women in Africa, I have a lot of refugee friends, the horrors that women are facing there .... it’s beyond :( I’m trying my best to save the world...
Jonesy James Christmas tl;dr. So basically you have no idea what you’re talking about? Good to know, I’ll be sure to ignore anything else you have to say
Rob I would love your opinion on the coming food shortage. China's dams are overflowing and destroying their rice crop. 2021 will be the start, would love to hear a perspective from your 'abundance mindset'
1st
People say things like "we need more love", "we need more humanity", "we need to reconnect with Mother Nature" ... But those are just empty words that have no clear meaning. Personally, I care about access to nutritious food, clean water and a relevant education for everyone. I want the end of war, less crime, the end of poverty and the reduction of inequality. Also, because we are social animals, I want people to be touched when they are young and later in life feel that they are part of a group. But this group doesn't need to be a bunch of hippies that build earthships out of tires...
Don't get me wrong, I'm glad they can show what can be done with little means and some work. Experiments like those are great and we can learn from them. I would support any group that works to protect and preserve our habitats so that humans can thrive on planet earth for generations. But sustainable living doesn't require us to scale down and rely primarily on traditions and knowledge of our ancestors. I personally would prefer to use the best of science and technology and apply it for social concerns.
I believe we need a discussion about the future of humanity, about what kind of lifestyle/standard of living do we want and about what kind of progress would we be happy to work towards. Rob is showing lifestyles that seems to suit its needs well... But it is far from what I'm hoping for when I look forward.
I would add that science and technology are not evil and they are not in direct opposition with "nature" (whatever this term means to you). Science is just a method for understanding how the world works, and it has been used to some extend by indigenous people when they (for example) tried to organized their crops. Technology is just the applications of science and here our objectives are important. What are your objectives ?
Side note: Who cares if indigenous people were doing permaculture long ago. Permaculture is just an umbrella terms for a multitude of practices and landscaping arrangements and by itself doesn't tell you anything about the way you should manage your food production or distribution. It is just one of many tools we can use.
That’s how us human race should be no colour just peacefully community’s living life using our hands growing and sharing it’s the rich
Wealthy and msm who are putting the devide between us we are humans first we are the only species which have to pay to live and we should not take it we have to work hard for money and debt which our governments spend on our behalf which makes us work hard jobs to pay for there debt our labour should be use to take care of each other and share what we grow and help one another in times of need not to fund government spending on war machines to invade some country who only want the same as we all want to live free in gods earth and grow and forage from nature 🙏🏻👏🏻🤔🏴🇬🇧❤️
Anyone who eschews this vid is living in horror
Don't like the implicit anti 'white' language in this clip. Every culture (Europe included) practiced sustainable agriculture for thousands of years before industrial agriculture.
We of all races are victims of the economic system and of our ancestors losing part of their land, moving away from their home land to escape poverty or oppression, or watching whatever land they were born on get stripped of its vigor. There exist the few rich who benefit from the status quo, every land has those people, and each year on our land those rich get even more diverse as greed and survival do not discriminate. I have no ability to sympathize with any movement that continues in perpetuity to focus anger or ill-will toward one race as the cause of their problems. Most people, including those with darker skin, have European ancestors somewhere in their lineage, and the vast majority of European countries did not participate in abusive practices but their people came here simply for economic opportunity and/or to escape oppression in their homelands as people continue to come here today for those reasons. It's just common sense that if we are ever successful in taking down the system, then I should expect rage to be centered at all people of the "wrong" skin color as a way of payback. In fact, it just means I have to be against system change until this tune changes.
It is not necessary for you to be against change. We are all one people and how you treat people today will be reflected in how people treat you tomorrow. Go out of your way to pay it forward with kindness and joy and it will come back to you.
Unfortunately, they had NOT been doing it. They did in the past, which is a shame. I'm part Taino, a group that the US claimed Columbus made extinct, although Tainos were showing up in Puerto Rico in the census of the 1700's early 1800's until the category changed to include everyone not born in Spain. The US did want another pesky treaty, when they invaded in 1898. I live in Central Minnesota, in land that used to belong to First Nation people. I transformed my 1/3 acre into a REAL permaculture food forest/wildlife habitat, from what was decades old lawn. Pulled all by hand because I use zero chemical, and planted much of what is here. Birds came with seeds from other places and did their part. I started when I was 59, ending this year, at 73, when it is basically a "jungle" with all kinds of edible, from regular vegetable to all kinds of wild edibles and fruits. This does not look at all like a barren piece of land. It is as far as it gets from a desert with little water, even in the middle of a drought. Hate to say it, but I had no help from anyone and I'm all of 5 feet tall, so EXCUSES ARE NOT HELPFUL or playing victim. If what some people are saying were true, then ALL reservations would be green, full of trees and all kinds of plants for humans, insects, birds, etc.
I had my share of being treated like trash. The current mayor, lost his full time job because he did nothing about the treatment I was receiving in the store where he was manager for years. Plus, the District manager was given a warning. I stood in front of the guy during his "retirement", new manager introduction party. I'm not some one that allows being stepped on. I gave him multiple warnings, he must have thought I was kidding. If I sound rash, that is my intention. The so called white man is NOT going to all of a sudden become kind and generous, so the only people who can change things have to stop with the excuses and get on with what they know they should be doing. I was NOT put in this planet to be touchy feelly. My mission, and believe me, I truly believe I was given a mission at birth, is not to make excuses. I hope that some people there, read what I am writing here. And get to DOING.
Do you help the monarch butterflies by growing milkweed? If not please consider doing so they're fellow native Americans after all
@@justinfilipovic8939 I have thousands of milkweed plants (they spread) including 5 types. Monarch are not the only one that like them, so do other insects. Some people were worried because I was pulling some of the plants at the end of the season. Most of my wildlife area is in the back yard which is fenced, but the front is not.
@@carmenortiz5294 That's good to know
I feel the need to point out the obvious, white people are also indigenous to earth (not north America) and they have been growing food also for a very long time. Native Asians that walked to north America are also not from north America even if they are called native Americans. None of this is really unique to any race. There is only one race, which is human, and it is time we work together for a better future.
This isnt permaculture its permaSJWfeelSorryForUs. Glad most indigenous folks are strong unlike this video portrays.

Absolutely fantastic to see the big proud Lakota Sioux Nation pulling resources together to eventually obliterate poverty on Pine Ridge. 🦬
