    Keep those stories going! So many are trying to rewrite history, and only those of us who remember are doing our best keep the old ways strong-because they work! 🙏🇺🇸

    Elder Paul is a great story teller, and very sharp mind. Enjoyed listening to him tell about his past. He is very wise.
    He graduated HS same year that I did.

    I could sit and listen to Paul all day. Reminds me of sitting and listening to my Grandfathter's and Grandmother's tell me stories of the past. We need their wisdom! Paul looks amazing for his age!! Blessings to you all

    Thank you for sharing this! I love hearing our elders talk it makes so much since. You know we may not be from the same tribes/clans but all of our beliefs are the same! I’ve listen to different native ppl all over the North American continent and our ways and beliefs are the same in many ways! Thanks again bro that was a good listen and I am honored to hear from this great teacher even tho he has went on his journey.

      Amen bro. We are all connected through our lords creation. I’m glad I was able to get an hour with Paul last October. He was just waiting to share what he did. Love and forgiveness was his message and it wasn’t one of weakness but one of faith and strength through God and our peoples. I pray more people out there can walk away from hate and unforgivness and work together to make a better place for our children. Thanks for watching brother

      @@enigmaticgwichin1630 it was sad to hear him say he hurt in side when folks would leave when he started to talk… from my teachings he was trying to get all that off so he could start his journey and I believe you sitting and actually hearing his words helped him start his journey. I could see how much lighter he felt from the start to end of the interview and our elders need to be listened to more so thank you for that bro.

    Videos like this definitely don't get the attention they deserve. The amount of knowledge he has is probably crazy and you likely only heard a fraction of it. thank you for sharing on your channel these videos are as good as the hunting and trapping ones and for sure purposeful.
