"The Way We Speak" - Promo Video - "Yakama Nation Language"

Hello everyone, I'm currently working on a long term project about my Native American Language. This video is a promo of my long making documentary about the Yakama Nation, history, language, lands, etc. The basic knowledge about the Yakama Nation.
Also this is the community service project I did for my UNITY 25 Under 25 project. I showcased this during the UNITYMidyear2015 in Washington D.C. back in February.
If you want to know more about my tribe here's a link to their main site:

I was honored by the Yakama and asked to a potlatch by a woman who I only know as "Muckmuck". It was Fathers Day 2008. And was held in the State Park. I have always wanted to have another chance to again, say THANK YOU! To her, and the young Chief there who presented me with a beautiful blanket.
I remember your lesson... as we turn in a circle, so the world turns...and we must turn with it...
I still have that blanket! 🥰

yakama natives are the toughest people in the northwest!!!!
this is a very hostile land!
bone chilling winters
brutally hot summers
desert environment
low food supply
and fast changing seasons

Osiyo.“Our conversation with the Federal Gov. to Free Native American Political Prisoner Leonard Peltier who’s been falsely imprisoned going on half a century and to honor the Indian Treaties (pre-constitutional law) forming the basis of our great nation was almost entirely redacted on national TV shortly before the insurrection because it demanded that the then President also relinquish the nuclear codes which has never been done. Oct. 2020 I spoke with at least around a dozen federal agents including the FBI and even the US Navy. Trump says before being elected, “We have nuclear weapons so why can’t we use them?” Nancy Pelosi confirmed to our international audience on national TV that indeed they where removing the nuclear codes with the help of the CIA and if anyone has any questions they could just call up and ask. What followed only confirms nuclear tensions where about to explode. The redaction is worth at the minimum trillion$ more than all moneys because with nuclear war lights out! Nothing! This simultaneously addressed the other largest nuclear power and all the rest without having to address any of them directly except our own.”
