Mary Gan Our music is just as amazing as our ancestors’. The colonists are just actually letting us play freely now like those generations of oppression never happened.
@Mary Gan And your people are still stealing from that stone age till now, displaying stolen artefacts from all native people, India, and Africa in your museums and storing laundered money to enrich your economy from India to Africa. I heard they are still owing India and dividing and ruling Africa to keep them permanently unstable cos of minerals. Bunch of hypocrites!!! Run along and choke on your venom Becky.
I love learning about Native American culture. I like to think it bears a few similarities to Celtic culture which, being a Welshman, is very close to my heart. Yachi da! (Long live!) 🏴 🇺🇸
So glad to see this. I was incarcerated in Ohio and when I first got to the prison our brothers had no smudge in 3 years, no pipe ceremony in 7 years and it took 2 1/2 years of my 3 year bit to fight for our rights to smudge. 2 days before my release we had our first pipe ceremony. Still no sweat allowed but at least I forced Ohio to bring in an outside Spiritual Advisor on a regular weekly basis.
@grodhagen I think you are missing my point...Like any other criminal, these POS lack respect for themselves so what make you think they respect their culture? But as usual, once they are incarcerated and bored all the sudden they turn to religion etc...Dont be fooled a very small percent of felons reform...if they are sincere than im all for it...I a son who when encarcerated is a Christian and attends every class they offer but the minute he is out he is back at his old ways....so I can speak to this..
@@jonkevinsanchez8458 that is why we have a constitution. The rehabilitation of errants, which includes the responsibilities of Rehabilitation, is protected under the Ninth Amendment. This is why we do not base laws upon self-righteousness and persecution, and why any laws of that nature are being rescinded. Equal treatment under the law is a fundamental right. The persecution of offenders for certain crimes has caused doxxing to become acceptabl; and implemented to intimidate political opposition. All things are bound together, what we do in one aspect of society will leak out into the rest of society.

Sitting at the drum, always being around the brotha's.... with all honesty, at times was the only thing that got me through my stretch while at DVI. So easy to get caught up in all the mess behind the walls. Being able to be who one truly is, and able to recognize and make a strong connection is paramount to making it through those gates and beyond. Never had a problem with the law there after, nor will I ever
When my father was in prison he was allowed to smoke tobacco in a prison that had no smoking policies but because my father was native he was allowed to smoke with the other natives.
I bought a shaman drum and sometimes I drive out to a place where no one is around and i drum and chant loud like this. It feels SO right! The soul loves it
This is awesome that the system allows them to do this, it brings their spirituality and their language to a whole new level of one and peace for Mother Earth and to themselves.
Even better is that many correctional facilities highly value native programs as this, as such programs are known for having the highest success in recidivism prevention
Got out 2018 Purdy... did 5 years... good to see the brothers keeping their heads up and praying... faith and culture is what keeps the spirit alive when ur down and feel like ur back is against the wall... pray through the years of pain & struggle don’t let ur heart go cold or hard
Thank you for this very nice interesting and nice video. I love Native American music, people, culture. May God bless everyone Native American. Best regards and blessings with love from Poland 🇵🇱🙋♀️💝
@@joannamarciniak8436 Poland?! I love Laboratorium Pieśni. Good spirit! Same as this drum! Blessings to my Polish sister from Mescalero Apache! All My Relations!
This is AWESOME! I think people in general need more of this kind of therapeutic, participatory activity. I was in a drumming circle one evening on a retreat, a large circle around a campfire, and it was amazing! Not the same as a native tribal ceremony, I know, but powerful nevertheless. I had never beat a drum in my life but they had them available for everyone and it was easy to pick up the rhythm and join in with the circle. Incredible vibes, and it seemed you could feel the rumbling of the drums deep inside. Very therapeutic, and also gives a sense of community.
Dancing is another thing . I used to go contra dancing every Friday night until I moved outside of the area where they held it. It was some of the best fun I ever had! The door charge to get in was small, they gave 30 minute lessons ahead of time, it was really easy to catch on to and great exercise! With no food or alcohol! I'm serious, it was so much fun that you never even thought about those things, and you danced until you felt like your legs were going to fall off! Mostly nowadays for fun we just stare at screens, and eat and drink too much. That's just sad. Of course the corporations haven't figured out how to make money out of these healthy therapeutic activities so they're not going to be pushing them, so hardly anybody knows about them. Oh yeah, there's also singing together like in a chorus or a quartet. That provides the same kind of communal creating of something special. We need a lot more of that. It's healing. Doing things together in a creative way instead of fighting and arguing and staring at screens.
Even though our sons, our brothers, our fathers , our grandfathers, our grandsons are in a place like this. Their are still our warriors who are never forgotten. This is only a moment for em to be m.i.a. for now but they are forever in our hearts and memories. They will still come back home no matter what. Take care my Natives ✊👊👊
I grew up in Shelton! I now live on the crow Indian rez.so I am very familiar with the music and the dancing and the dreaming and you guys did such a great job we go to the pow wows all the time keep singing guys keep drumming you're doing a great job
I am a Mexican American woman and I cried for the full video watching these men sing their medicine surrounded by barbed wire. Such beauty and such cruelty.
@@hailoweenhailoween5264 well yeah lmao Mexico was full of tribes before the Spanish conquest , many of which were distant cousins of the shoshone, uto, Comanche and other ute Aztecs peoples of the southwest us .
Love to see this. Peace and blessings. A group activity does bring souls together. You can feel by the first minute that they are enjoying every moment of their life which is super tough in those conditions

My brother went to many different rehab centers while struggling with his heroin addiction and where was it that he finally went to get clean? NARA a native run and meant for native rehab center. The preformed sweat lodges and would even sing on the drum. My brother even learned more of our language there and connected the way our people were meant to. Through our ceremonies and our songs. I’m proud to be Native and that won’t ever change.
Love you Warriors. Sacred drum I hear. Sorry for your pain. Thankyou for the strength I hear. Everything changes, hold on the journey began and will end. My love to u tonight and tomorrow, live Warriors please live. Be with the Great Life of your lands.
kinanaskomiton. Thank U my Brothers. Hope U’s R all doing well. I am a plains Cree from Canada. Love your Drum song. I listen to it a lot. I feel the Drum spirt in this song. And I share with my Cree briers that Drum here. Stay strong. Smudge and prayers my Brothers.
As a Washingtonian (not Indigenous), its beautiful to see this. Even while paying their dues to society, they are able to still keep some traditions going. Beautiful.
This is Shelton population in Washington state. I’ve done my fair share of sitting around that same drum and sacrificing in that same lodge many many years ago.
@Paloma San Basilio Love how you try to turn it around on her, no. It's interesting to take a peak into other cultures. Speaking by your logic anybody who's interested in history enjoy atrocity and warfare and death, suffering rape and murder. So yeah, check what you're gonna say before opening your mouth dipshit lmao
thank you for your empathy... yet, I am sorry yet I disagree strongly. As being both guilty in some eyes of being both Native and one who has been behind the walls disagree. Although I have nothing but LOVE for all the brotha's that I had served with at DVI, there are some, including myself, which should have been no where else but behind the walls at that particular time. Each and every offense is harmful, yet, someone like myself which had physically beat individuals within an inch of their lives.. do not deserve nor should be running freely within society. 23 years removed from my offenses, I still have night mares and PTSD over what I had done to multiple people. I have come to terms with it I would like to think by knowing that I had served my time as prescribed by the law, and have never repeated such behavior. i still live with the shame and horror, yet do not blame no one but myself. In defense of myself, I would like to think that I was EXACTLY in the place that I should have been in my at that time in place, if not I possibly would have taken a life... regardless of if that was my intent or not. Sadly.... there are brotha's behind the walls which should be there due to the nature of their offenses. I hope tthe creator see's the transformation, society and most importantly family see's what has transpired within myself. Last yet above all else, I hope and pray that the individuals that I did hurt.. AKA Victims find it within their hearts to one day forgive me and no longer have to walk or in their minds live in fear
Beautiful native singing, I sincerely hoped those gentle men prayerfully repent of whatever wrong they may have done previously, and channel their energies and artwork toward preserving beautiful traditional culture of the Native Americans, making good music and art, creating arts & crafts, lovingly & unselfishly helping the community, and draw close to God and He will draw close to you. (James 4:8)
You're full of it, you make it sound that these people need to be puppets for your kind. They should make pretty things for you people, and then they should be come closer to God according to whitemans scripture. Creator gave them brains which are a lot smarter than people like you. Creator has given them the key to life in which he did not give to the white people. According to your Christian idealogy they should repent and everything will be all better, and TOTO is in Kansas. Your pathetic.
@@jeaniemarczniec7755 Dear Jeanie, your English is very hard to understand and sounds full of hatred, prejudice, anger, madness, and depression. May I ask why? As a fitness trainer I kindly recommend you to exercise first of all, writing in proper and good English so everyone else understsnd your words. Secondly, reread the title, it says simply those Native Americans are in prison bcoz they are serving prison term for committing crime, and they are trying to get their life back together. Thirdly, Jesus christ (Yeshuah) walks the length and breadth of Israel and Palestinian everyday preaching the bible (written in the Middle East), how white did you think Jesus was walking in the hot sun all day? Have you walked in his shoes ??
@@jeaniemarczniec7755 Jeanie, you sound very confused. As a student of Native American Indian Cultural Art History, I am appalled if not disgusted by your senseless, disrespectful nonesense written online. I have never asked for your opinions on Tonto and personally I am not interested in him bcoz my exBF is Native American (Apache/ Nahuatl) and much better looking than Johnny Depp or any Tonto. Creating beautiful artwork functional or aesthetic is integral in all Native American Indian Cultures. Making art is also healing for people who suffer from trauma (Read the experience of Artist Eric Schweig). The Creator has used His cosmic palette to create Life and colours in the beginning of time. We should imitate God in making arts and crafts, creating gardens of beauty and life for ourselves, our homes, the community, and our children. God loves Art because He is the Breath Maker He infused His love for art and life into all things, and teaches us through His majestic artistic creations in Nature (a silent witness that God is the Maker of all of us and Earth Always Endures).
@@jeaniemarczniec7755 Jehovah the True God is the Creator of Worlds (Psalms 83:18). That people may know that you, whose name is Jehovah, you alone are the Most High over all the earth. Jehovah created All people and All skin colours and complexions. He gave his son Christ Jesus as a sacrifice for all people so All people may live, including Native American died in previous generations, Christ has the power to resurrect them from the dead. Jeanie however is neither authorized to condemn anybody here, nor authorized to tell people anything contrary to what the Sacred Text, the bible is saying.
Healing is Healing.. no matter how It arrives... Our purpose on this Earth is to help others... Especially those who are having "hard times"... Isn't it Good when the Creator puts someone in our path who gives us a "helping hand"??... Healing travels in BOTH directions.. It is as powerful to the Receiver as it is to the Giver.....

Brothers on the yard. Prayers for your families and the well being of you all. Hopefully you’re all going home soon. Your people need clean and sober men. Be a good example. Your children are watching you. ✊🏾❤️
Brought tears to my eyes as I read it, guilty as I stand... yet, it is so very true
@@RichardRodriguez-ch9zn Guilty as charged right here too. Clean and sober 17 months today. I say I’m sorry by staying clean and sober. I give back to not only our communities but to all non native communities as well. I’ll be 47 years old this Sunday. For the first time since my son was a little boy he will be attending my dinner as a grown 23 year old man. Life is beautiful today. One day at a time brother. I am and I alone have always been my greatest enemy. This is a lifetime of making my amends by action; not words and broken promises. Easy does it.
@@WARPONY1973 congrats. Be your own man as you are doing now. Just watched Mike Tyson story, the boxer. He was talking how he made a choice to give up alcohol and drugs for his children, and he was a bad dude before. Now he gets to live. 😌

The drum is a call, It is the heart beat, You see how all people are drawn to the drum ..
They got better instruments now and more complex musical arrangements. You don't have to use stuff from the Stone Age.
I felt healing from this!
Imagine how they felt!
WE NEED TO KEEP THIS!!

Love to see our faith being practiced behind the walls. Remember my brothers faith with good intent, prayer and humbleness the grandfathers will come.

It is just dirt and rocks. There is no Mother Earth. You might need some medication.
Sounds like a lost European IMMIGRANT bum...😉
Sitting at the drum, always being around the brotha's.... with all honesty, at times was the only thing that got me through my stretch while at DVI. So easy to get caught up in all the mess behind the walls. Being able to be who one truly is, and able to recognize and make a strong connection is paramount to making it through those gates and beyond. Never had a problem with the law there after, nor will I ever
Was in k wing d f g c then y dorm Z dorm then ranch never got to sweat in reception Tracy was bullshit. A-ho brother glad to hear you never went back!
When my father was in prison he was allowed to smoke tobacco in a prison that had no smoking policies but because my father was native he was allowed to smoke with the other natives.
@@sesarepiceno5178 I think she's from her mom. And before that a brief stent from her dad.
Natives don't smoke tobacco, we burn it.

Something about these chants brings me so much peace, stirs up so many emotions.
This Drum Never Leaves the Soul❤️ Praise be to YHWH
Such a beautiful, rich, complex, and highly sophisticated culture. Huge respect 🙏 love from New Zealand 🇳🇿
I bought a shaman drum and sometimes I drive out to a place where no one is around and i drum and chant loud like this. It feels SO right! The soul loves it
This is awesome that the system allows them to do this, it brings their spirituality and their language to a whole new level of one and peace for Mother Earth and to themselves.
Even better is that many correctional facilities highly value native programs as this, as such programs are known for having the highest success in recidivism prevention
So heartening too see our culture strong and shared most needed in such a hard place I am proud of you keep up the good teachings!
Stay true stay strong, Brothers.
Stay jail would be better. Stone Age idiots are costing the taxpayers too much money.
Got out 2018 Purdy... did 5 years... good to see the brothers keeping their heads up and praying... faith and culture is what keeps the spirit alive when ur down and feel like ur back is against the wall... pray through the years of pain & struggle don’t let ur heart go cold or hard
A computer course would do much better. Not this dog yelping nonsense.
Thank you for this very nice interesting and nice video. I love Native American music, people, culture. May God bless everyone Native American. Best regards and blessings with love from Poland 🇵🇱🙋♀️💝
We’re great people but sadly we’re plagued by drug abuse
@@GotTwoChickens You are grat proud nation.You are check it out fight mighty warriors. Blessings to all Native people. 🦉🐺🦅
@@joannamarciniak8436 Poland?! I love Laboratorium Pieśni. Good spirit! Same as this drum! Blessings to my Polish sister from Mescalero Apache!
All My Relations!
Soooo soothing with mighty strength!! I feal this deep in my soul!! Y’all are amazing humans, blessed by the spiritual gods!!!
What is this dog yelping nonsense? They are going to get shivved in the chow line for annoying the crap out of everyone.
This is AWESOME! I think people in general need more of this kind of therapeutic, participatory activity. I was in a drumming circle one evening on a retreat, a large circle around a campfire, and it was amazing! Not the same as a native tribal ceremony, I know, but powerful nevertheless. I had never beat a drum in my life but they had them available for everyone and it was easy to pick up the rhythm and join in with the circle. Incredible vibes, and it seemed you could feel the rumbling of the drums deep inside. Very therapeutic, and also gives a sense of community.
Dancing is another thing . I used to go contra dancing every Friday night until I moved outside of the area where they held it. It was some of the best fun I ever had! The door charge to get in was small, they gave 30 minute lessons ahead of time, it was really easy to catch on to and great exercise! With no food or alcohol! I'm serious, it was so much fun that you never even thought about those things, and you danced until you felt like your legs were going to fall off! Mostly nowadays for fun we just stare at screens, and eat and drink too much. That's just sad. Of course the corporations haven't figured out how to make money out of these healthy therapeutic activities so they're not going to be pushing them, so hardly anybody knows about them. Oh yeah, there's also singing together like in a chorus or a quartet. That provides the same kind of communal creating of something special. We need a lot more of that. It's healing. Doing things together in a creative way instead of fighting and arguing and staring at screens.
San Quentin has a sweat lodge for Native American inmates.
The prisons in New Mexico also have sweat lodges and they also let the natives smoke tobacco.
Very cool. 👍
ALL prisons should allow Special Ceremonies for Native American inmates.. It's part of our healing....
Even though our sons, our brothers, our fathers , our grandfathers, our grandsons are in a place like this. Their are still our warriors who are never forgotten. This is only a moment for em to be m.i.a. for now but they are forever in our hearts and memories. They will still come back home no matter what. Take care my Natives ✊👊👊
Blessings 🌹, prayers up high that your gift leads you back on The Red Road
I grew up in Shelton! I now live on the crow Indian rez.so I am very familiar with the music and the dancing and the dreaming and you guys did such a great job we go to the pow wows all the time keep singing guys keep drumming you're doing a great job
When I was younger as a group we'd go to different prisons throughout KS to Dance. It was a hard fight to get prayer and sweats in there.
I love that the brother decided to come check it out. The world needs more inclusive things like this
I am a Mexican American woman and I cried for the full video watching these men sing their medicine surrounded by barbed wire. Such beauty and such cruelty.
Cruelty? You don't know what they are in for?
A lot of Mexicans have Native/Indigenous blood too.
@@hailoweenhailoween5264 well yeah lmao Mexico was full of tribes before the Spanish conquest , many of which were distant cousins of the shoshone, uto, Comanche and other ute Aztecs peoples of the southwest us .
Thanks for your beautyful music and druns greating from the Netherland ,greating from a big fan
Good to see them begin their journey. Hopefully one day they will learn more...
Love to see this. Peace and blessings. A group activity does bring souls together. You can feel by the first minute that they are enjoying every moment of their life which is super tough in those conditions
Bless my brothers . Do not give up on your spirits. Great Spirit is watching over you . Osiyo My brothers. Or in my Mahican language Acquai ( hello). I am Cherokee/Mahican . Cherokee on my mother’s side . Mahican on my father’s side. So there for they call me by my Native American warrior name Littlehawk
My brother went to many different rehab centers while struggling with his heroin addiction and where was it that he finally went to get clean? NARA a native run and meant for native rehab center. The preformed sweat lodges and would even sing on the drum. My brother even learned more of our language there and connected the way our people were meant to. Through our ceremonies and our songs. I’m proud to be Native and that won’t ever change.
Best wishes for your bro. Red road all the way. ✌️
Beautiful makes me cry 🥁✨✨
Sharing your culture with your human brothers is one of the nicest things.
Wow! Beautiful music beautiful people. Nice
Love you Warriors.
Sacred drum I hear.
Sorry for your pain.
Thankyou for the strength I hear.

As a Washingtonian (not Indigenous), its beautiful to see this. Even while paying their dues to society, they are able to still keep some traditions going. Beautiful.

This is Shelton population in Washington state. I’ve done my fair share of sitting around that same drum and sacrificing in that same lodge many many years ago.
That was wonderful to see they should not be in prison good bless Native Americans
I meant to say God bless
@Paloma San Basilio Love how you try to turn it around on her, no. It's interesting to take a peak into other cultures. Speaking by your logic anybody who's interested in history enjoy atrocity and warfare and death, suffering rape and murder. So yeah, check what you're gonna say before opening your mouth dipshit lmao
those men are in prison, the did something to DESERVE to be in prison, just because they're natives doesn't mean they deserve special privilege
c true, and POC are overrepresented among the innocent because they cannot always get good representation in the courts.
thank you for your empathy... yet, I am sorry yet I disagree strongly. As being both guilty in some eyes of being both Native and one who has been behind the walls disagree. Although I have nothing but LOVE for all the brotha's that I had served with at DVI, there are some, including myself, which should have been no where else but behind the walls at that particular time. Each and every offense is harmful, yet, someone like myself which had physically beat individuals within an inch of their lives.. do not deserve nor should be running freely within society. 23 years removed from my offenses, I still have night mares and PTSD over what I had done to multiple people. I have come to terms with it I would like to think by knowing that I had served my time as prescribed by the law, and have never repeated such behavior. i still live with the shame and horror, yet do not blame no one but myself. In defense of myself, I would like to think that I was EXACTLY in the place that I should have been in my at that time in place, if not I possibly would have taken a life... regardless of if that was my intent or not. Sadly.... there are brotha's behind the walls which should be there due to the nature of their offenses. I hope tthe creator see's the transformation, society and most importantly family see's what has transpired within myself. Last yet above all else, I hope and pray that the individuals that I did hurt.. AKA Victims find it within their hearts to one day forgive me and no longer have to walk or in their minds live in fear

Beautiful native singing, I sincerely hoped those gentle men prayerfully repent of whatever wrong they may have done previously, and channel their energies and artwork toward preserving beautiful traditional culture of the Native Americans, making good music and art, creating arts & crafts, lovingly & unselfishly helping the community, and draw close to God and He will draw close to you. (James 4:8)
You're full of it, you make it sound that these people need to be puppets for your kind. They should make pretty things for you people, and then they should be come closer to God according to whitemans scripture. Creator gave them brains which are a lot smarter than people like you. Creator has given them the key to life in which he did not give to the white people. According to your Christian idealogy they should repent and everything will be all better, and TOTO is in Kansas. Your pathetic.
@@jeaniemarczniec7755 Dear Jeanie, your English is very hard to understand and sounds full of hatred, prejudice, anger, madness, and depression. May I ask why? As a fitness trainer I kindly recommend you to exercise first of all, writing in proper and good English so everyone else understsnd your words. Secondly, reread the title, it says simply those Native Americans are in prison bcoz they are serving prison term for committing crime, and they are trying to get their life back together. Thirdly, Jesus christ (Yeshuah) walks the length and breadth of Israel and Palestinian everyday preaching the bible (written in the Middle East), how white did you think Jesus was walking in the hot sun all day? Have you walked in his shoes ??
@@jeaniemarczniec7755 Jeanie, you sound very confused. As a student of Native American Indian Cultural Art History, I am appalled if not disgusted by your senseless, disrespectful nonesense written online. I have never asked for your opinions on Tonto and personally I am not interested in him bcoz my exBF is Native American (Apache/ Nahuatl) and much better looking than Johnny Depp or any Tonto. Creating beautiful artwork functional or aesthetic is integral in all Native American Indian Cultures. Making art is also healing for people who suffer from trauma (Read the experience of Artist Eric Schweig). The Creator has used His cosmic palette to create Life and colours in the beginning of time. We should imitate God in making arts and crafts, creating gardens of beauty and life for ourselves, our homes, the community, and our children. God loves Art because He is the Breath Maker He infused His love for art and life into all things, and teaches us through His majestic artistic creations in Nature (a silent witness that God is the Maker of all of us and Earth Always Endures).
@@jeaniemarczniec7755 Jehovah the True God is the Creator of Worlds (Psalms 83:18). That people may know that you, whose name is Jehovah, you alone are the Most High over all the earth. Jehovah created All people and All skin colours and complexions. He gave his son Christ Jesus as a sacrifice for all people so All people may live, including Native American died in previous generations, Christ has the power to resurrect them from the dead. Jeanie however is neither authorized to condemn anybody here, nor authorized to tell people anything contrary to what the Sacred Text, the bible is saying.

Good medicine
Loved this. Great respect for American Indians.
This song is for us here on earth in prison our (souls)
Healing is Healing.. no matter how It arrives... Our purpose on this Earth is to help others... Especially those who are having "hard times"... Isn't it Good when the Creator puts someone in our path who gives us a "helping hand"??... Healing travels in BOTH directions.. It is as powerful to the Receiver as it is to the Giver.....

I feel bad for anyone that gets caught up in the criminal justice system, but for these people, they never get loose again. they stay on paper for life.
Not all of us... some got away so we can come back for what was promised.
Why feel bad? Yes alot get put in for dumb reasons but laws are laws. We have no idea what they are in for. Not to mention the same system you are shting on is "letting" them have a drum and stuff.
@@ted4672 and you think only guilty people get arrested? Are you really that naive?
@@sketch6995 Well if you read the first part of what I said. I stated that yes...alot of people are also put in for "Dumb" reasons. Or reasons the majority wouldn't agree with. But what does being native have to do with it? I noticed alot of people in the comments seem to think just because you have "Native" roots in your Genes that its a free pass for breaking the law.
@@ted4672 Being native makes it a 100 times worse. Just being native means your assumed to be guilty already. Being native means the sentence will usually be twice as long. Any dark skinned person sees this on a daily basis.
