This gentleman is a local teacher and a volunteer at the Cherokee Museum in Oakville. There are many Native descendants in the area and they all descend from the local tribes, as I am. I see no problem with learning more of my heritage. My 2nd Great Grandparent's are buried in those mountains. The family sold the land to the govenment for the National Forest. Very little is known about the mixed bloods who stayed in their homeland and were NOT removed.
My great great great great grandma was princess of the Chickasaw Tribe. I want to learn more about her. I didnt know about this, thank you for this video. :)
My great great grandmother was full chikashaw on my mothers mothers side and full seminole out of Florida. Im not very much Because of breeding but i know my people’s suffered on the trail of tears and the stories passed down. I know its in my blood i love fishing and hunting with bows so much but respect the land and the creator. My family is all from Oklahoma by Lake Eufaula. I remember going every year as a kid. Im In East Tx now I want to learn more might tale a trip to ADA OK
Ah, well I apologize if I came off that way too. ^_^' I love the Native American culture and learning about it. Stereotyping is wrong and I pray you and yours can continue growing strong as individuals and as a culture. We all need to step up our game and grow closer together, because we're all human, flesh and bone. :) I really hope you guys can get the recognition you deserve, I really didn't mean to go against the grain. Just saying, and I was just so excited when I found this.
I have always been interested in cultures & my ancestry, as Im sure many have wondered at some point or another. If I have offended you in any way I sincerely apologize, but this is what I was told from my grandma. She told me she ran away from her tribe so she could be with a white man that would be my great (so on & so on) grandpa. I thought that & the fact they had meeting places since there werent many videos that I remember about them quite exciting. I didnt want to start an argument, sorry
My white Grannie never posed ad native American, she has faith the creator lives the little children, red or Yellow, black and white they are precious in his sight.
Good video if the others feel so strongly about the way you have tried to teach others about their history, why don't they post some video's on he subject themselves I for one am interested in their past. All I found at their sites where rock video's go figure.
@darylmac4 i agree.....they are like the park rangers and game wardens......THEY think the Bankhead is theirs......all THEY have done is regulate, restrict, and make it difficult to use the Sipsey Wilderness and Bankhead Forest.....well, they have all regulated themselves out of a job......lol!!!!!
So how sacred is this place now that you've filmed and photographed it and slapped it up on the net for millions to view. So much for your concept of "sacred" -- try commodified.
Dang native Americans, alot of European prisoners came to the not uncivilized, but most civilized humans they ever knew. My Grannie one of them her parents fled Cornwall n Wales to be Miner's copper Miner's, do u think they ever wanted to boat back over to a monarchy who made them endentured servant's. Heck no, my European Grannie married a chocktaw man, she was never accepted, she lived Hopi kachinas, and everything native. She did not piss as a Native American, just a lover of a native American and his culture. She was hardly accepted, but never bitter. She took to heart, not the demise of Native Americans, but inclusion. I consider myself a blendian, and a beefalo, not a Mudd blood, or bovine. If that's wrong, then I don't want to be right.
No argument from me, sorry if I came off that way. It is the same story we as Indians hear all the time. The story is always the same. Don't mean to put you on front street, its just the way things are. Our tribes are finding success these days in the white mans way and now everybody wants to be Indian. They seem to think we get everything for free and this is far from the truth. Some seem to think we don't pay taxes, I pay taxes at every store, out of my paycheck, we live by the same laws

azindn -- I'm Chickasaw and I'm totally with you on this one. How dare he speak about my people as if we are just a historical curiosity.
