Basketball on Pine Ridge Indian Reservation | Trans World Sport

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 ก.ค. 2024
- Pine Ridge is home to over 30,000 members of the Oglala Lakota Sioux tribe. Covering an area roughly the size of the state of Connecticut, it's an isolated place of both majestic beauty and abject poverty. It's considered to be the poorest part of the United States with around 85 per cent unemployment and the average family income is little more than 6,000 dollars a year. When it comes to sport, Basketball is by far the most popular here, as it is on most Indian Reservations. Many tribes promote the sport and see it as a way of keeping Native youths away from the problems of drugs and alcohol, which blight so many of their communities.

wow! can't even imagine having to make a 100 mile round trip each day to go to school, which is normal for many of these kids. i had to walk 2 miles each way, but that's nothing. wasn't rich, but wasn't poor either. i would've never graduated if i had the obstacles these kids constantly face. but they have such strong spirits. they see humor in everything, and fight like true warriors to make it. mitakuye oyasin - we are all related. yes! we are all human beings and are in the struggle on this earth together. if everyone gives a piece, we can solve the puzzle.
The trench grave picture should never be forgotten.
We are survivors and never victims. Our destiny will never be our adversity. The internet has brought much needed awareness to the needs of the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation and hoping to become an active advocate for those needs.
Roger White Eyes is the teacher near the first third of the video; a wonderful teacher, husband, father and grandfather. Amazingly humble man who is an awesome role model for the youth of Pine Ridge!!
Where is this located?
@@bink9113 The Oglala Lakota reservation in South Dakota
wow im maori from new zealand...the more u stay true to who yous are as people and fight for that, it will get better i should know im maori and living proof.
Tia.. churr.. all the way..dont let them win.. fight back Harrddd..
Awwwa so precious so now! Much Love and Respect!
We won state champs too. Very similar story. Unfortunately the star player died in a fatal car crash. He didnt even drink either. My grandpa told his mom to get blessed off. He went down to Oklahoma and helped take down a sacred ceremony that apparently only northern arapaho are supposed to do. His mom never had him blessed off so that bad luck took his life. America needs to know who we really are and hopefully help provide and give us more chance to make it in this world that shuns natives just for being native. Its not right. Theres so much talent on the rez. We need to stop animosity between ourselves first.
Да,это не исчезни на сутки.баскетбол это вам не шутки.молодцы,ребятки и девчата,полезно и приятно.спасибо,за то,что приятно смотреть,когда молодежь приятное с полезным совмещает.дай вам бог здоровья, счастья, успехов.

Thank you for let us know. Needs to be told
I'm from the Pine Ridge Reservation and basketball is life haha #RezBall
For real huh lol so awesome it is
Spotted Elk boii
Respect to ur culture
Just went to your channel😂 literally only basketball videos😂😘
I'm so bad at playing basketball
Amazing # 34 shoots the basket perfect you make it look so easy, great job ,keep excelling
After I graduated highschool, I left the Rez!!!! I knew it was gonna be scary but you have to believe in yourself!!
When your from the reservation...and you leave to the city for college...i feel in my opinion, your expected to show off your skills, and it's like you get tested the entire time your in school...that's what proves Natives can do almost anything with ❤
And they do..
But in Canada, Hockey is big to Natives, not basketball
The young Women Marque is now the Physical Education and Health Teacher at the Pine Ridge Girls Boarding School
That's awesome
how do you get access for these kinds of stories?
Inspiring
Stay Strong Lakota people blessed be 🌟🌸
❤ These people deserve the utmost Respect ❤
I think that is. Awsome. Basketball
That kid threw down a nice dunk on the playground
Wow Marque means score in French
That boy Carl Swallows...
Great story. Need to get Kyrie Irving to come visit his family there on his mother's side.
I bought a few knives from a company called pine ridge I wonder if it's from the reservation
They were a bit expensive but they were all handmade and hand-shaped stag grips
haha we named my baby brother Jerome because that’s my dads uncle
Anyone know where Marque Lunderman ended up?
I am a American Indian Cherokee from. Alabama
Thanks
Stay white sister
The guy look like native lakota warrior in 1800s snd before.. @11:07-11:08
Natives should never have agreed to fight in America's foreign wars. The Vietcong didn't put them on the rez nor did the Imperial Japanese.
She sounds shy
In LA they have a lot of Hispanic neighborhoods . You wouldn’t be alone there 🙄
B for the ones to come.
😹😹😹I did more exploring and hiking in the woods when I was a kid while pretending I was an Indian 🪵🔥🦴🍖 sometimes I still go back to my native land to visit in northern Illinois
Кве.индейское приветствие.
5:45 she can pitch my tent!
Indians are from India. I'm sure people from India are pretty cool. But that is a culture we do not have. Completely different people.
That native girl is a cutie tho
Ih my family
They look like, latinos mestizos or white to South América, wach in TH-cam, indígenous people from the Amazon or the Andes and compare, South América indian look like the vintage photos
6:53 i see my house
Jessika
They should be given all the luxuries of life for all the wrong doings committed against them!!!!! All natives
G/Funk U are crazy as hell,blacks n jews had it way worse than so called Native.
Americans
Lucindia Galloway I wasn't referring to Blacks or Jewish people. A lot of people have had it bad.
Lucindia Galloway blacks did not have it worse than natives
Lucindia Galloway
You must be high
We measure our wealth in family not the whitemans concept of money
Its alĺ urs now !!!!!!!
who is the beautiful girl name.
Clarissa Ashley u mean what??
I'm Navajo from the Navajo Nation, why do Lakota Girls look more beautiful than most Navajo Girls I've seen???
@Harry Clams how tall are they usually? I'm 6.0 and it is difficult finding a female that is close to my height. Growing up on junk food like hot cheetos isn't helping the females on the rez grow any taller. Those Lakota are tall because their diet was mainly buffalo.
I'm DINE and I wonder why u natives so light skin.
Nietsches playing medicine ball; basketball without boundaries.
Lion Prince h
maybe she leave join wnba make really good money come speed retirement back in reservation. Lot kids live work for while els were then go back home in retiment then spreed jobs people still there as they need run store all people who return speed retirement money.
What y’all know about Rez ball 😂 cmon now
I know everything about Rez ball! Been there done that ! 6 games on Sunday to win championship!
I want to see a Native American Boxing Champ, so they can beat up on the white man 😂🤣😅😆
You are concerned with our culture but you have the same in yours. Is that projecting?
Take pride in the land and mother nature. But litter everywhere. That's ok tho. Big oil is bad because it pollutes the air. But trash every where its ok.
I want to one on one her to see her ball handling skills myself.
Ball Is life for real here lol I wonder if there is a punk rock scene in any of these reservations
There unfortunately isn’t. The main music scene is the rap scene. But I started a garage punk band with my friends. once COVID lightens down, we’re gonna try and do something with our music.
@@NyqWill95 if you haven't already can you possibly record some of your work and post it to your TH-cam channel I would like to hear it some of the best punk I've listened to was some unknown garage bands
@@watchoutnwo oh definitely, we’re working on our EP at the moment so I’ll for sure post it when we get it finished
To Native Americans, Christ Is REAL ! Although I BELIEVE Christ LOOKED "Middle Eastern". I'm Praying For ALL Of YOU ! GOD Bless you, May YOU expierence Christ like I did ! 10/24/2016
Noe Moreno + lol
Christ ? a huge phoney !!! he is white and he looks like white, as he is.
How can we unite worldwide contact me asap for a new assignment 229 288 5352
more reading and math you guy need supervise guide check on reading and math levels every three month and help learn better education. if you guy do poor education i become homeless.
So we need to be monitored in our studies yet you cannot form a proper sentence....lmao
🙄 stop dwelling on the year 1868
I don't know but she looks white to me.
Look man unfortunately most of us don’t look full blood natives anymore like our ancestors but that’s a wound we have to deal with but our native side it’s what we all should proudly represent even you brother
Luckily for me I’m proudly still brown skin
I’m full Lakota but more fair skinned with white features. Most likely I have white blood somewhere.
Yeah those outsiders just cant keep their hands off our woman. 😂
Humble. God hates pride. God resist the proud. Being proud is of satan. I hate satan. The bible says to obey God humbly. The old testament is the jewish faith and the new testament is the christian faith, the rest of the religions are false i know because i studied all the religions in the usa. The only true temple of God is only in Jerusalem over in Isreal, the holy land of God. I'm rich in knowledge, just cost alot of money to open and run all the businesses that i'm smart in in the usa which i don't have that kind of money unless God blesses me with money. God is the one who blesses people with knowledge to get wealth. All glory goes to God. Our God is very jewish. Jesus Christ our lord and saviour is king of the jews.
Charles Orum ; hey’ weird’o you don’t like aboriginal’s stay off our channel, this is for our people, not outsiders,..🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾
There's more to Indian life than basketball. What about arts and crafts or exploring the wilderness . 😲Oh but don't listen to me the big bad white man 😲
yes there is. I suggest law school and medical colleges. I am fullblood. no chimook''' blood Make it out there as there I would caution these 'kids'. Glad the girl got a business degree. is still "I see you are brown'' racism.
On the Navajo rez, there's a lot of painters, pottery, jewelry, music, film, food, and a lot of outdoor activities.
What, you think some of us don't do other activities on the rez? This vid is about #rezball
Oh give me a break ! Basketball ? What about having a hobby of carving todem polls or making authentic arrowheads or weaving , or painting ? All of these things that are in your culture can take the place of basketball. And one more thing . If you kids want to be active, try hiking 🌲🌲🌲
+S.W.A.T. why should it matter if he's native?
Victor Mazzari You are not the person to tell Natives how you think we should spend time in our communities and amongst each other. On the rez or not.
Shove a totem pole up your ass lol
+The Maiden +Henry Cline Perhaps his comment was rude, but it means that all we have many other valuable things that we shouldn't lose only to accept the things that the dominant culture impose us...At least that's how I understood it, when I see my little niece riding a horse freely I really enjoy it much more than celebrating if she marks a triple...
@@hernang6006 sorry was having a bad day I rebuke my comment all natives don't have totem poles that's more Pacific tribes but I know what you mean.the tribes with overwhelming poverty are more in to basketball because that's all there is to do.no outlets other then basketball,drugs, alcohol,ect.im sure if they had horses and culture peogams they would be all over it.theres no jobs no way to get ahead.only who's family is on the tribal council can get ahead.and most the time they waste it on material things.untill corruption and greed stops there on a downhill spiral...
They don't even look native they look more European then the European themselves......
I need a girlfriend from the pine ridge reservation
