As a lakota language teacher I say in the future what language you speak will determine who you are regardless of blood quantum.
My family has been in the diaspora since forever...I could care less about the money I want to know who we are since we have been assimilated so many times through history I simply seek truth. 💯
In my opinion anyone who honors and respects the tradition is native to me 👍
Thats a myth. There is no money.
I call us the Lost Ones. And unfortunately we're more common than people want to admit. One Navajo Elder estimated as hi as 75% of Americans are actually native Americans and don't even know it.
The transferrability of Blood Quantum Percentage , between different Tribes & Nations should be considered by the U.S Government in order to preserve the Native Identity. All Indigenous Blood is equal and should be protected .
The blood quantum system should be removed, it's colonized thoughts created by the colonists. The nations should choose who are native, not the US government
I know very little of my native heritage. My father and Grandmother lost recognition some time in the 60's. To the tribe, I don't have enough native blood to be a member.
I was always proud to know I was descended from native people, but I never got the opportunity to learn much about it and don't even know where to begin.
Something similar with my family, but I did learn through xy dna I got 5%from my mom, 10% from my dad, so 3/20.
But due to the same reasons, I'm of what I like to call the Lost Ones.
Agree with lady who said each should be considered full blood. But, at least daughter, who was only getting credit for one quarter rather than half, she should have rights to her full blood quantum. This is important especially for her children.
Hi, I thank you for the lesson about quantum blood, and I hate that lesson.
And I also like to thank you for my opportunity to react to you.
My name is Chief Helping Dog Black wolf Javanclaronaje Jerovanja Make Rodinu White Dove.The name my white mother gave me is Jacobs Ronald Felix, known as Ronny.
Hello, I would be a mixed blood:I was born in 1965, so this means that I am 56 years young today, but I still have the memories of all my ancestors in my veins, I'll tell you something about that:Among my ancestors were and still are, from later in time to earlier in time:Belgians, Italians, Slovenians, Yugoslavs, Apaches from the border with America/Mexico.All these people have been through a lot in the course of time and in their own history, they went through all this in their own country of origin or in the country where they ended up after being kidnapped against their will or ended up there after being abducted against their will. they had fled their own country in the hope of a better life.I do not know my father, only a dead stepfather and my mother, and family who are not blood relatives, and so I know only a few.I am a mixed blood, partly Belgian, partly Shech, partly Jogoslave,Partly Black footed Indian, partly Italian,partly Apache,Partly German, part Walloon, and part Belgian and part Apache from my mother's side, born as Belgian in Belgium.I am looking for my brother Indian.Who and what I am, who my family is? My ancestors? No idea.I am now 56 years old and I do not know myself, I do not know who I am.Is that bad? NO. Am I happy? All the way!But I love people, ALL people, not hard to guess why hey? because: I am just about anything and everyone, why could I have something against someone else? So.Yet I would like to get to know my ancestors, especially the Indians, because for me they are the furthest away.My totem name is, White dove, my spiritual Guide is BlackWolf given to me by my spiritual old great sage Father WAKANTANKA, Great Spirit, as my HUKA.As ancestor, he is also my WOKIKSUYE, A memento.
Unfortunately I am only his HE, mountain, an obstacle that I have to climb and overcome myself.
Are there people who might be part of my tribe?
WELCOME to report you.
And that does not only have to be Black footed Indian or Apache, that may be ALL Indians, because one fist against injustice also counts 5 fingers, and together with my other 5 finger hand to shake two hands fight for peace, not by beating but with my tongue between my teeth and my fist in my pocket.
WELCOME to all brothers and sisters, and family that I prefer and choose myself.
Wakantanka is in my heart like a Wokikisuye, as big as a Holy He.
I am Chief HelpingDog BlackWolf Javanclaronaje Jerovanja Make Rodinu White Dove.
The name my mother gave me is Jacobs Ronald Felix, with the call sign Ronny, and my race is human.
Call me what is convenient for you.
My main question is:
Am I an Indian?
You know, my Indian friends on Facebook told me: "If you have one drop of Indian blood in your veins, then you are an Indian."
But, is that true?
If so, it would make me very proud.
Who am I? I don't know, you tell me.
Hello. My name is Sherry Running Elk Kendrick. I am full blooded Cree. I married a white man, but keep my bloodline close to my heart. My grandparents taught me a multitude of the old ways. I'm 64 yr.s old and i think i can survive off the land if i have to. I still hunt and fish and can dress and process it. It's good to know the old ways.
question, I live in Canada and have always loved native culture but I feel guilty about it because I’m a bit more white than native and I’m very pale and my whole life I’ve been going back and forth with my identity not knowing what i am. Please give your comments and thoughts
...lt sure would have been nice to hear what they were saying
I couldn’t understand most of the dialogue because the noisy background music. That’s a big problem with many TH-cam vids.
Sawanwa ne le. I am Shawnee. Family tree pinpointing the exact Indian I descend from, oral tradition passed down the generations, and a DNA test confirming. Descended from the hokolesqua blood line. And I'm not Indian enough... But I don't care. I'm not a government Indian. I don't want the welfare. Like my ancestors, I do things myself.
Of the Lost Ones. All i can prove is im a eastern woodlands native American.
We are all just the accumulative genetic product of our ancestors. For instance, most people enrolled in the Cherokee Nation today are primarily descended from Scottish, English and Irish people, and they are primarily monolingual Anglophones. But their chosen identity is Cherokee nonetheless. It's a personal choice which ancestors you identify with and which ancestors you ignore. Oklahoma has had numerous politicians, including the current governor, who identify with one remote ancestor who was not British or Irish.
Then they are not real native
I had to take a dna test to prove that i am 100% Cree. I don't see how these people could do this and for what purpose. Makes no sense. That doesn't mean a thing, they will never be native american.
@LuisRamirez-vv4dk , actually, yes they are. They can prove lineal descent from someone on the final rolls.
Blood quantum WILL eventually do away with those tribes who set a specific percent for Tribal membership. I get the "business" from both sides, non-Tribal and Tribal. My phenotype doesn't match my genotype. I appear white but have 1/4 Cherokee blood and am an enrolled member. Also am CDIB certified. Racism isn't just a "white people" problem.
It's like a church, aren't you satisfied with your current denomination ? just start your own, event a name or label, find enough members to join and go for government recognition with all the benefits. Simply as that.
I am islata
This video further proves how Indians whether Native or American continues to discriminate against Black Indians who you made no attempt to include in this video although you include white Indians.
There is no such thing as "White Indians" please refrain from using that term. The majority of indigenous people on Turtle Island have some euro ancestry due to colonization. I agree they could have included a mixed indigenous-black person though. I myself have twin brothers who are half black half métis so I understand the need for them to be recognized.
@Emly Adonis that’s dumb I don’t first time hearing this maybe they don’t know who they really are
@@missmetildatorez well said
@Emly Adonis more info please?
No such thing as a white indian.
This lady is probably more European than native.
“INDI” means BLACK.
“INDIAN” means BLACK “FOLKS”.
“INDIGENOUS” means BLACK -“GENUS”❤️
The vast majority
of indigenous “American” Indians
are TYPE “O” BLOOD.
As opposed to the Indians from Africa
👉🏽who are Majority type “B” blood💡
Yet,
We are “ALL”, Negroid💪🏿
So
These pale face
try to use the word “Native American”🤡
to sneak around the truth💡
but
we know “Native American”,
simply means
“ANY” culture/ethnicity, born in the Americas!
be it
Canada
America
or South America.
A blonde haired blue eyed woman?
👉🏽 is also a “Native American”💡
Anyone born in these regions
no matter where they come “from”?
Are automatically Native Americans🕵🏽♂️
Here's a History Fact For You: Christopher Columbus thought he landed at India, although he landed at the America's. So, he called the people that he had seen at the America, Indian; which is a mistake in his own basis. So, you need to get your facts straight before, you criticize people who were raped from genocide, and their generation that was born after them, which are involved in a spiritual issue. Thank you, and stop trying to be a White Washed Black Person who, discriminates against a traumatized community.
I'm type A+. Got it from my European side. Us Shawnee always found the white ladies pretty attractive.
@The bees knees
Troll🤡
Indians are “TYPE-O”.
Quit tryna Sneak into the TRIBE, agent! 🐷
@@og-greenmachine8623 I was referencing why I have A+, but since you are on the subject, do you have any scientific reference as to all natives having only type O? I have a feeling someone doesn't know what they are talking about.
And let's say you are full blood. This means your tree didnt branch. You have brother-uncles huh?
Exactly. I recently had this discussion with someone that called me dumb for saying Latinos/Hispanics are native Americans. It's crazy to see how many of us have accepted being colonized and continue to use those terms that were given to us.
the white boy got mad at being called white boy.🤦
That's funny. Like calling a tomato a tomato.
?
@@jordynallen4134 guy was clearly more white than anything.
Ramirez is a Mexican name. Therefore you are more of a wetback than an Indian. Goes both ways homie.
@@thebeesknees745 Ramirez is not a Mexican name. I am not Mexican. Go to school and learn something ignorant POS. 👍
