    Lakota here, we also have similar requirements to become a war chief. Also your right about the eagle feathers is considered a big deal to the point there is a whole ceremony that is supposed to be done if one touched the ground and the reason for that goes back to one of our old legends we tell. You’re also right about different Native American groups have different traditions, but we all celebrate our warriors and if you want then look into your wife claim about possible Native American ancestry then you might get accepted into a tribe and no whatever tribe it is then you will be honored.
    If you want to know another Native American that served during WWII then look into one named Dave Beautiful Bald Eagle.

      My people are Mormons on both sides of my family and Mormons are crazy about genealogy. We had a Cherokee convert to Mormonism named Paulee marry into the family on moms side. So I'm a red bearded, blue eyed 1/16th (maybe 32nd?) Cherokee. I got talked out of registering with a tribe by my school counciler in high school. Probably for the best because I wouldn't be the best representative for the tribe.

    Ok, as someone who was born and raised in the state with more Natives and more reservations than any other state in the US I’ve got a few things to set straight for you since you’re British and don’t really know what the real life relationship is like between Native Americans and modern Americans.
    1. Becoming a war chief to Native American warriors is similar to what a Medal of Honor is for modern American soldiers. It’s something only achieved by the bravest warriors.
    2. It’s absolutely NOT disrespectful for white people to wear feathers in their hair if it’s done with respect. It’s disrespectful to wear full tribal chief headdress for Instagram or to make fun of Natives. That’s something that only happens on social media by ppl from big cities because anyone born in the country knows what headdresses symbolize. I have a fake Chiefs head dress, a few feathered headbands, and dream catchers in one of my closets that I got at Indian Powwows. I literally got them FROM Native Americans who were selling them as decorations.
    3. Science far surpassed what we call “Old Indian Knowledge” a long time ago. They have a very spiritual and connected relationship with the land but modern science blew right past old Indian knowledge in the 1900’s.
    It’s still a very complicated relationship between Natives and Moderns but Natives are revered all across the country for their place in our culture.
    The United States Army respects Native American war tribes so much for their ferocity and fighting spirit that most Army helicopters are named after each individual war tribe as the ultimate sign of respect for a worthy adversary.

    My moms family is Lakota and Northern Cheyenne and my uncle served in Vietnam. He told me a story about how he and a few other Lakota friends of his surrounded a VC machine gun nest and started taunting the VC in Lakota and "whooping and hollering". It scared the VC so much they ran away and my uncle and his friends captured the machine gun.
    He composed a victory song about it.
    Translated into English:
    "The Dog Faces are running away!
    The Lakota have taken their gun!
    They are crying without it"

    10:49 this is true! Audie Murphy, who was the most decorated soldier in WWII and who the final battle in Fury is based on, became an actor when he got back to the US and in some movies he played himself portraying his own actions during WWII. And the Hollywood writers literally had to tone his real life down because it was “too unbelievable.” Even though he was literally the guy who had been there and done it.

    I'm Yuchi (Euchee) and an enrolled citizen of the Muscogee Creek Nation. My tribe was originally from the southeast in what is now Tennessee and Georgia, and was moved here to what is now Oklahoma in the 1830s . While there were warriors in my tribe, my ancestors didn't have the same customs and requirements for becoming a war chief like what is mentioned in this video. As you mentioned, there were many tribes with specifically different cultures and languages. My people were from the eastern woodlands, and had a completely different way of life from the tribes that lived on the plains or in the deserts.

    Family legend on my mother's side is we were married into the Chiricahua Apache tribe through Geronimo. Geronimo is one of the most effective Apache Chieftains, freeing his people and fighting the US over and over, only surrendering to them at Fort Bowie stating "My people are sick and dying. I am tired. Once, I moved like the wind. Now I surrender to you and that is all." Geronimo had surrendered with his 38 (70 at the start) men when over 5,000 soldiers and 2 veteran generals were trying to stop him. He had snuck past them all the way to their garrison to finally surrender. All after 25 years of proving his point.

    I was married to a Tlingit for many years. I lived with his grandmother in the summer during fishing season.
    She was the oldest member of the tribe and was loved by everyone, including me.
    Although she spoke broken English, we had pretty great conversations about everything.
    I learned so much from her. She was amazing.
    She told me stories about things that this channel would consider folklore.
    It wasn't just tales. She loved me and warned me about things to keep me safe.
    She was also psychic.
    She knew when my husband's engine failed, in really bad weather during an opening. I tried all day to reassure her that he was fine.
    At the end of that day, my husband's boat was towed into town by his cousin.
    I always tell people when they are traveling around the country, to find some local indigenous people and ask them how to stay safe. If they tell you not to go to certain places, or warn you about, what sounds like mythical creatures, listen to them. They are doing you a favor.

    I can’t speak for everyone ofc, but I am Maya (Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, etc) and grew up around the Ojibwe people in Minnesota and Wisconsin area.
    Some people have already commented about feathers and everything but I also wanted to mention that a lot of indigenous people also view ‘southern’ native Americans as cousins or brothers and sisters too, but we also have our own differences as well. Some people think of native Americans as only AMERICAN, but there are ‘First nations’ in Canada, and indigenous people of mesoamerica (middle America), South America, and the Caribbean who also have their own cultures and ‘war chiefs’ but are also a little different.
    I also saw some comments talking about head dresses, eagle feathers, and dreamcatchers, honestly its difficult because some indigenous people will sell things other natives will scold them for selling but some NEED to make money some how, especially if they aren’t part of a federally recognized tribe or their tribe is poor. Basically? Just try to be respectful, and understand that some people wont care no matter what you do, some will care no matter what you do, and that since 1492 when the genocide sailed across the ocean blue, it was basically a death sentence to be found with a headdress, drum, dreamcatcher, regalia/uniform/traditional clothing, that was often used in ceremonies that were also banned and quite literally illegal in the 1930s and not protected until 1970, so many elders were alive knowing what it was like to have to hide not only their traditions, but their children too, else they be stolen and put in a boarding school that ‘wasn’t very nice’. If you’re really interested I’d do research, some tribal governments have websites teaching about their tribes traditions and struggles, and there’s also the National Museum of the American Indian which should have more information too. (I’m sure Canada has one too but honestly idk, its basically the same as America but with a little more French lol)

    I have a native american ancestor many many generations back, and while I don't look or claim to be a Native myself, I take a lot of pride in that part of my history, and I have taken on a journey over the last several years to explore that part of who I am, no matter how small it may be. One thing I have discovered on this journey is that there were a huge number of culturally distinctive tribes. There are some general truths that span across most of those tribes, such as the honoring or celebration of warriors who display high levels of bravery, and the respect for those who have come before you. I greatly welcome you to take your own journey to explore Native American cultures if you get a chance. Unfortunately, in my efforts to learn about who I am also lead me to learn that the tribe I would have belonged to has long been extinct as a culture (Pocomtuc) and mostly absorbed into other tribes or just faded into obscurity over time.

    In 2010 the Cornell University Genetic Ancestry Project used genetic tests to identify Native American heritage in between 4 percent and 5 percent of the 200 undergraduates studied. None of these students had ever been aware of Native Ancestry. Cornell is one of the waspiest universities in the Northeast, a region of the US where there is the least surviving Native culture for reasons that should be obvious. Long distance and many times removed Native Ancestry in the US is far more common than the census would lead us to believe and a part of this is the social stigma of being mixed race that was prevalent in the US until quite recently.

      the problem with most videos about the trail of tears, is they count population of the tribes before the 1830s and then assume everyone who didn't make it to oklahoma died. while ignoring the hundreds of settlements that popped up populated almost entirely by natives between Tennessee and oklahoma.
      people seem to forget the "indian removal act of 1830" didn't displace the people, it moved the sovereign territory of the tribes, and indian who was willing to settle and live as an american was free to do so and the vast majority did.

    I'm a descendant of several races (¼German, ⅛Scottish, ⅛Irish, ¼Dutch) with a portion of my blood being that of the ⅛Comanche and ⅛Crow tribes. I was fortunate enough to spend a good amount of time with my great-grandmother, which was where my native ancestry comes from, she being half Comanche and half Crow and given that I was very young I don't remember everything but from what I can remember just those two tribes were very different from each other while still sharing many commonalities between the two. I remember something she said a few times was that the Comanche people often referred to themselves as Numunuu, which means The People, and the Crow people called themselves Apsáalooke which I think means the Children of the Large Beaked Bird or something like that. She was very adamant about teaching people about the ways our ancestors actually referred to themselves and the ways they would describe things. She would say that there is a power that flows through all things, and it's important to use the proper "tongue" when we speak about something. What she was meaning when she used the term "tongue" wasn't a reference to what language you use, but to how something is described and the emotions and intentions behind your words. She always felt the need to educate anyone who'd listen about this knowledge because she believed that the world was forgetting the true language of the earth. That language not being determined by the words or sounds you use but by giving an accurate description of something that is derived from the meaning behind the word(s) used and the energy and emotions tied to that description. You could say something using nothing but different sounds as long as it conveyed an accurate depiction of the energy and/or emotion behind what you wanted to say. Done properly, that statement could be understood by anyone no matter what language they spoke.

    The best book you could read (probably) about the Native Americans in North America is Black Elk Speaks. Black Elk was an actual historical figure who was present, experienced and remembered key points of the Native American/Anglo-American encounters. In his old age (1920s I think) he was interviewed with a couple of his friends and they describe growing up in the last days of traditional Lakota (Sioux) culture before it was erased by Anglo-Americans. Unlike a lot of books in which some historian or anthropologist voices speculations about such an experience, Black Elk actually lived it, witnessing and participating in key moments like the Fort Laramie Treaty, the battle at Little Big Horn and the slaughter at Wounded Knee. He was also a respected Medicine Man (shaman) and the descriptions of his "visions" are amazing.
    That said, I wouldn't go too overboard trying to elevate them as a people and revive the "Noble Savage concept. Human nature is universal, but the Native Americans largely as a whole conducted war in a particularly savage manner, where enslavement, rape and torture of captured enemies was practically recreational fun. That's also a universal practice, but, as in most things, provoking astonishment and amazement to an especially high degree is something in which Native Americans excel probably far more than any other group. Among others, the sentiment of having exceptionally savage practices in war was put forth by military historian John Keegan, a former lecturer at Sandhurst. In his book, A History of Warfare, Keegan nominated the Native Americans as being particularly ruthless in their martial behavior and when one looks at the so-called Flowery Wars of the Aztecs, or the descriptions of the systemic torture captives of the Comanche endured (for reading, Empire of the Summer Moon by Gwynne), Native American practices in such things IS far higher and very much beyond just about any other people, even the Mongols. If anyone read this far, thank you for the effort.

    My husband is of Lenape tribe. All of the tribes all over this country had their own differences in culture, religion, family units. They were very much like Scotland where it was all one culture but they were divided into clans only they didn't call him clans they called them tribes.
    I think most of the stories that the fatal electrician has told could be made into movies as they haven't already. He probably right the screen place for them at this point. What I love is that he picks people that no one's ever heard of. He's the one that should be getting the 88 million dollars for recruiting from the military because every time I watch one of his videos I want to go out and go into the service. And I'm 50. Imagine what watching these would do to a young kid to light a fire under them!

    Starting somewhere around 20000 years ago, people began coming to North America. It's not all one group that came from one place, but many groups over centuries, that established the various tribes. I'm mainly Muskogee (registered Creek), but also have Cherokee and some others in my lineage. While one can be of mixed tribal heritage, one can only legally be registered with one tribe. It's always good to hear someone taking an interest in the mythologies and history.

This is pretty common in Maine so if your wife is from Maine she is likely correct. MicMac, Passamaquoddy, Penobscot, Abanaki, Wabanaki, and Malaseet are all tribes feom Maine.

    Saying Native American or American Indian is like saying someone is Asian. America has thousands of tribes with different cultures. The horse culture was mostly a plains tribes thing where horses were pretty important due to terrain. The introduction of horses changed their lives allowing them to expand their range and carve out huge empires. But for most tribes in other parts of North America horses were impractical and at best a tool. In most tribes war cheifs were simply warriors who developed a following due to reputation for being successful at war. Oft times they were also a statesman, prophet, shaman or medicine man with a message or vision that inspired.
