      Testify. First, I salute you. I have always had a Great respect to Native Americans. As a musician myself, I am very curious about your music and would love to hear more about you, your music, life, culture and more. I wish you guys all the best. I am hoping you guys write about your culture and history through your music. Best of luck to you.

      @barackolyspenow5879 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I thought metal from the dirt portrayed the Navajo metal scene in a much more honest light. I think that documentary is more insightful and informative than this one. It showed how the music shaped there views in order to survive depression and suicide. This one is pretty bland and doesn't have alot of immersion.

      Think how they felt when european immigrants invaded theirs land's? We reaped what we sowed. How do You feel now? Your true history has been hidden from you it's all a lie. Its about to happen again. You will see. They erase more history everyday. When our children grow up they will be taught to teach a new version of history to the next generation and so on. Freedom is not given through words on paper, it's taken.
