For some nations it was literally illegal and believe it or not it was Obama who removed that law. Up until the 70's they were still reinforced. My mother and her sisters and brother all had to go to catholic boarding school because it was illegal for them to be taught our culture. (I'm in my 30's, so please consider the fact it was THAT recent and not some far off history) My grandmother had to go to one of those "schools" to become "civilized". Yes, here in the united states we had those schools too. Until 1968 we didn't even have some basic rights. Thank you for this! For a time the Nation seemed to remember we existed but For the last 20 years or so we've been forgotten again. We need more balance in how our culture is presented. For those who want to learn more, 500 Nations is a beautiful introduction by an actor that has steadfastly supported us throughout his career. It's hard to FIND but if you get an opportunity WATCH IT! It's not just about our suffering but also a celebration of our many nations and their survival.
Hey! That's MY town! Hattiesburg! This was fascinating. I'm not surprised I've never heard of this ceremony, though it does make me sad to understand that even now these rich traditions are being suppressed and the people are still being mistreated. Recently been trying to learn more about pre-European Mississippi and this is just wonderful! Thank you for bringing these voices forward and letting them speak to more of us
WE NEED MORE OF THIS MOREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
This world could use more of the green corn that are know any. It would be like the movie purge, but in the opposite way, where we all focus on letting go of our rage
Great reporting Tank, wonderful to learn about Green Corn Ceremony and these great Mvskoke and other tribal rituals of the true people of the land. It's the same for us Maori, nothing happens without womens mana. Green Corn Ceremony or something acceptable between tribes ought to replace Thanksgiving.
This series lifts my spirit. I really want the producers of the segments to push to have clips pf the program put on tiktok to reach a wider audience. I really dont want this series to end. We are losing unique American cultures. many of us have been told for years that rituals and practices were sinful or backwards so these things were not passed down. This will wake some of us up.
It’s hard not mentioning, because it is so overtly obvious, the vast disparity in comments on this particular episode in comparison to another episode with the Native Black American Mardi Gras Indians. No disparaging comments questioning the validity of lineage whatsoever of the guests. Very interesting…
It is a TRAVESTY that these videos don’t get more views! These are amazing. Thank you for taking the time to thoughtfully research and present these to people.
Some ppl r so obsessed with skin color and race, they don't have the mental capacity anymore to grasp the concept and science of skin color and race. Not even the Aboriginals of Australia r from Africa. The ancient DNA studies have been done and verified, they are from ASIA, Eurasia to be exact. The Negritos from the Philippines and the Natives of Papua New Guinea, and others, are from ASIA, Eurasia, with ASIAN DNA, not African! It's been known for a long time that diet and environment can dictate ur physical appearance, including hair texture and skin color. Spin it all u want, spin it all day long, spin it till ur dizzy, spin it till doomsday, no amount of culture vultures BS, is gonna change anyone's genetics!
Not trying to force Jesus 🏃🏽♂️ on anyone, but at the end of this video, it reminds me of how God said, if we were to repent, and turn from our wicked ways that he will heal the Earth/land
"not trying to force god on anyone" *Forces god on people* You're not cute. It's not funny. Because of your god and the beliefs of your people hundreds of thousands of innocent people were murdered and separated from their entire lineage! Christians make me violently ill because they say they want love and peace but your entire belief system contradicts itself
I too am quite interested in ancient practices and traditions. But to state that the indigenous people were innocent and peaceful would be a gross falsehood. The native peoples attacked and enslaved each other on a level greater than anyone wants to admit. Thier stewardship of the land was in harmony with nature and near perfection. Their treatment ofothers was quite savage and often resulted in genocide.
Literally every culture ever warred with one another, it should be assumed when talking about any culture. But nobody would comment this under a video about a Roman pagan practice. Weird double standard. This video wasn't about war it was about the green corn ceremony
“Often resulted in genocide” yet there has only been one true battlefield discovered in what is now the US… Also this was a video about our religious practices not warfare..
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯, about time! I found someone in the comments that spoke truth. Notice all the people thanking her for her storytelling and what they look like 😏 They used this sister to through this in or face!, the true Aboriginals of the Americas and the builders of the Mounds were So-called Black people, the builders of pyramids all over the planet.
@@Grunt1073 I could of sworn they were copper color like the Penny but it’s obvious they white washed over the years …. I have proof in my family tree 🤷🏽♀️
Exactly! They are not truly indigenous and its obvious. Webb in the way they speak about tradition. They speak as if it’s removed from them or a thing of the past and not apart of them. This episode was cringy to me. There was a few things I noticed though: the first picture is what my great great grandmother and her siblings look like, a huge part of the Indian removal act was to persuade native peoples to disassociate with any people deemed as “black”. It’s staged like it was to remove Indians from lands but really it’s to removed their identity and replace it with these people in this video.
They used you sister to tell falsehoods and the worst part about it is you are more American Aboriginal Indian than the people in the comments and video praising you for validating their $5 Indian lies, these were our rituals and they took them over and would call it VOODOO to make it look bad to others 😒.
I honestly feel she knows what’s up. The video she did in New Orleans shed light on why their practice is so sacred. They could not wear indigenous wear or proclaim to be or they would be killed or jailed. So this video comes around full circle. The skin color is an obvious giveaway but Ain’t no way they’re in the deep sound and don’t even have the slightest accent
Shut the hell up already, she knows what is up! There is no science behind ur culture vultures BS! The country is going cross eyed from rolling their eyes at this crap. There are a lot of people from the Black community who r embarrassed by this BS. These are good proud Black ppl, confident and proud of who they are and their true story of being brought here and facing barriers and knocking those barriers down! Why would you want to change such strong history. It's really pathetic.
Them not indigenous people those are Europeans go Mexico Guatemala to see indigenous people an there some here in the United States but those are Europeans
@DarkFae888right now today indigenous people of America are fighting to remove mixed black people with native American ancestry from gaining certain monetary gains that's being given to the natives of America I'm not saying you don't have dark skin natives but you can tell the difference between them and Africans
@@beaconofchaos I'm mixed African Native American and European ancestry but my African Gene dominates all my other ancestry DNA I'm a African that's where all humans come from even the native Americans have a parent lineage
Thank you for this video and it's very much more meaningful bc of the undercurrents in the Native community, at this time. Thank you to the folks from ur community who support your video. So very sophisticated on your part to just talk about another community and their traditions. I would like to know more about ur traditions. I've seen the jumping of the broom at weddings from ur community. I've seen how beautiful and lovingly they decorate the broom. What does it signify? It looks really sweet!
OMG, Gray Hawk is a entertainer fraud undian. She needs to talk to Chief Warhorse Elwin Gillum in Slidell, St. Tammany Parish, La. In Bonfouca, La. She's Chief of the Chata Tchefuncta Nation.
The chata tchefuncta nation is not a good example. At least the houma are state recognized. Warhorse and her club scream fraudulence. The Chahta don't have a "Queen"

I wonder why these videos get so little views. These philosophies are what guide me and gives me hope on climate change
It has only been out for a day.

The host makes great connections. She relates the information in a way that I can carry with me through my day and share with others.
August 8,2023.This documentary on the Green Corn is so enlightening and relevant.This should be taught in the schools.
Hey! That's MY town! Hattiesburg!

What an incredible medicine wheel! Very powerful episode.
WE NEED MORE OF THIS MOREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Reminds me of an egungun festival (with the cleansing and feeding of the community).
This world could use more of the green corn that are know any. It would be like the movie purge, but in the opposite way, where we all focus on letting go of our rage
what a lovely tradition. so happy these people are connecting with their ancestors and communities and living this tradition. wonderful!
I really love this episode! It's so important to document and celebrate these rituals , and the people continuing the traditions
Hattiesburg , MS native here ❤ loved the insight and history.
My family never taught me about, any of this. I, will follow tradition and teach my children.
Love this channel, Tank is such a great host! ❤

These People have already stated that they didn't build those mounds & they are not sure who did❤❤❤
Absolutely fascinating! Tank's such a great host too
This is excellent.
Great tradition. Wonderful interviews. Thank you.
Side note: It’s difficult to see how white looking many Indigenous people in the U.S. have become.
💚💚💚

That’s because they had a grandfather who paid $5 to get listed on the Dawes rolls.

@@Yvette5489 my point is exactly what I said. You can romance the past but it isn’t always as pretty as we paint.

FACTS!
I glad u guy don't just talk about black culture
This is also apart of “black culture”..
Black and brown culture is interconnected BEFORE Columbus

They have European ancestry as well but choose to identify with their Houma and Choctaw ancestry…
