My husband was Native American. He was Apache and every time I hear these drums it makes me cry because he has been gone for 6 months. I will miss him forever!
I’m so very sorry for your loss. ❤️
No worries, he Waiting for you there across the river. Have peace in your heart.
@@benridge6570 I know. Thank you
I'm so sorry for your loss.
@@mmps18 thank you
I hope we never forget these people. I’m not Native American but I’m indigenous Mexican. I really hope we don’t lose these memories and the knowledge of these people and their beautiful culture.
Indigenous to Mexico is native
@@Treasurelee10 I'm really lost. Last month someone said we don't call ourselves Native Americans to me. I'm not even much familiar with the continent and language. Does anyone know what should I call, what's the difference Indigenous, American Indian or Native American? I am just trying not be rude...
Original pre colonialism land was from Alaska to what’s now Mexico. There were no borders.
@@mhkuntug
In Canada we use Aboriginal but most are OK with Native American (as in orig pre colonialism pre borders North American land). Native American as a term is mostly from the 1970s but is still PC. They usually go by their tribal names privately. Indigenous can be any population original to an area incl Hawaii, Australia etc. Indigenous = first people.
@@jmc8076 I see now... Thanks for the explanation. By "PC" you meant "politically correct" right?
Edward Sheriff Curtis (1868 -1952) made hundreds of wax cylinder recordings of Natives speaking & singing. Amazing how well these have been preserved.
I don't think they were done in with moving pictures / in sync with sound
@@scott7270 My point was that authentic recordings exist from that time period, made by Curtis.
The Disneyland-style tracks dubbed over these dancers is painful. th-cam.com/video/rQYsUp2bwyQ/w-d-xo.html

I wonder who are the 539 people who had the guts to dislike this video. These images are a pearl! They are so precious. I am very thankful to the people who collected them and put them in one video and with sound. Thank you so much.
I saw some natives saying its disrespectfull to show their ancastors dancing for our amusment so its them
@@BubbaTheHillbillyThey Werent Dancing For AnyOnes Amusement..They Were Genuine And For The Genuine People Watching..Not For The Oppresser Of Course..So Its A Great Genuine Video To Cherish..And Defend Against the amusers Of Course..

They don't like it.
I'll track them down and present their bloody scalps to you. Hoka Hey from the Sioux nation here
I hope they are not to pissed. I think these photos are beautiful and precious to us. I am so bothered by the fact that their lands and heritage has been stolen from them. I have a pinterest board dedicated to them. I sent this video to that board with much respect.
These people lived life, We arent living it anymore, we are trapped in it.

Now, it's easy and fun. It just sucks culture and tradition are absent, and we're all brainwashed by politics and media.

Amazing we get to see this kind of documented footage in our age. Especially considering that this footage is roughly a 120 years old.
@Violet
Nooo

@Violet I can relate to this. I was in elementary school in the mid 50-s to early 60s. My dad worked on electronics as a hobby. Before computers. My grandsons and nephews work on computers now. From my dad, to me, to my children, and grandchildren, we all got into trouble for asking 'stupid' questions in class. At some point in the future for all of us, we found the answers outside of the class room. The sad thing that we learned is that school, a place of learning, is not really meant for people with questioning or searching minds. That is why so many families are homeschooling their children. And more often than not, those homeschooled, when compared to the 'schooled', are often more knowledgeable.

@Violet
Something to remember, there will be others who know more about other subjects but good/excellent teachers should not "look down" upon those they teach.
To be able to witness the spirit of the people back then is an honor. Thankful to whomever originally captured these images.
Same With All Old Photos Of Native Americans
Bless you.

I'm in the US and my family immigrated in the 1880's. I am so proud of the native culture and wish more is done to preserve it.
There’s just something about these drums that is just indescribable, they just have that special something about them that makes you feel something on a soul level that can’t be explained, as well as just sounding so ridiculously good anyway that makes you want to join in or at least move around! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
We still play and sing, sister. Come to a pow wow, all are welcome to embrace
This is a national treasure. This needs to be preserved for future generations to come. The must never forget the people of this great nation.
😆
This is another example of a beautiful culture I'm not native American or even American but the beauty of this can not be overlooked their history is fascinating and does not get enough acknowledgement in the history books ❤
It's coming back. Tribal members have become lawyers and work for the tribes and environment.
Klamath Lake sucker fish are deeply cared for by the tribes.
Nicole look at human history. We cannot teach everything. We barely learn about human living right now. I am European-American. I know nothing about indigenous Europeans. I do know about American Indians though.
@@illex759 dude that's completely different. Native Americans were a whole civilization with millions of people who were just killed by Europeans (not all but a large number), indigenous Europeans and "modern europeans" are the same people.
European here a well
@@illex759 I’m curious to know what you mean by “indigenous Europeans”
@@Iluvpie6 that's actually a thing in Irland for example you can look it up
I'm a Dane. So primarially my ancestors are the vikings 😅, but I am so happy for all of you people with native roots, so you can enjoy this piece of art. Your culture really interests me 😁.
Vikings were basically diffusionist pirates so that doesn't really pin it down to one specific Indo-European group.
Очень ценное видео , я рада что вы сохраняете свою культуру , коренных жителей Америки ❤👏
I am Apache and can only say this:
QUIT YOUR CRYIN!
Enjoy it for what it was and still is because it isn't gone.
So true: this is your ancestors’ spirit speaking❣️ Think forward, just as the well considered flight of an eagle...
You know what Apache means?
In Europe it meant: gunman/mugger in big cities, back in the last century. Also a swear-word for people from Surinam and Netherlands Antilles in the past, unfortunately... and of course there is the Apache helicopter. For “the enemy” a real enemy, as it literally means.
You must be half white.
What you are saying is absolutly true. Yes, its a tragedy and keep in mind BUT you guys have to move on and make the best now for the future. And not white or Native Indian.
I am Native American and my eyes and heart are crying together because of the beautiful sounds of the drum😊
You're very lucky to have such a beautiful culture. I wish, I had,ans everyone all had family, tradition,culture, morals, values and respect for all humans, animals and earth alike.
You mean that you crossed the land bridge .You look like the Eskimo or Siberian.

What they’re wearing is called ‘regalia’, it is very sacred to them and holds great meaning in every piece, every stitch, and especially in every feather.
I'm not 100% Native, my great grandfather was Mi'kmaq and I've always been drawn to my roots. The drums are so beautiful. To see a film from that long ago...I cried inside. ❤️
Mi’kmaq? Like Micmacs?
Stephen King mentions them in “PetSemetery.”
It’s a great book… Too bad both of the movies were terrible.

I once was in a hot tub in Pagosa Springs Colorado. A Native American couple were also soaking in the beautiful water. A lady asked if the man knew any healing songs. He said I am a Navajo healer. She asked if he would sing. He agreed. One song was the water song. I still get chills remembering the experience
What a jewel ... !
I am in awe.
Thank you creators for this treasure 🙏🏼
This is so awesome. I have had to embrace my Indian heritage while doing a paper for school and this was the best assignment I could have had to do. What a wonderful experience. It makes me so proud to be of Indian Heritage. This video has helped me so much.
I'm obsessed with the first dancers in this video doing the Buffalo Dance. There is a younger dancer who is often seen looking right at the camera. I wish I knew who he was. Amazing.
That first dance was an Apache traditional dance...not Buffalo, Chicken. It's still danced today. Go to a powwow and watch a Traditional Dance competition and you are sure to see at least one Chicken Dancer.
Yeah, a born entertainer. Reminds me of some of my son's antics in musical theater.
Chicken Dance you can see them mocking the chickens as they dance to the beat that’s beautiful one of my fave categories to watch is the Baakaakwe nimi chicken dance howaaaah! Miigwetch

@@visionboxed Being as the US was colonised by the British Empire lol
The Christian God is the True God and I am going to prove it right now:
God has a Law called the Ten Commandments (Exodus 20). These Laws include do not lie, do not steal, don’t put others gods before Him (Exodus 20)
Have you ever broken any of these Laws? Have you ever told a lie? Have you ever stolen anything? Have you ever lusted after someone? If we really went over God’s Laws in the Bible, every single one of them, it can really expose how much of a sinner we truly are and because we have all committed these acts our punishment is Hell because God’s standard is perfection.
Our good works cannot get us into Heaven. That’s like you steal a soda from the store but you tell the judge, “hey judge I give to the orphanage, I do community service.” The judge will not care about what you did. You stole something that was not yours so therefore the Judge is going to find you guilty. God is the same way.
But, this Judge is a loving Judge who does not want to sentence you for your crimes. He sent His Son Jesus Christ to come and take the punishment for your sins and if you Repent of your sins and accept jesus Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior then you will be saved from the sentence. Jesus loves you and is not willing that any should perish but have everlasting life (John 3:16) God bless

@Rietta Carson True statement
@@jeffmacleod55 That was BEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN!!
My great grandpa was a mescalero Apache and he never talked about his early life but always stated you were better off being called Mexican than native American back in the early 30s he was born in texas in the mid 20s ....I miss him and wish he told us more
Also Apache here. My grandpa was the same way til he died and my dad hated it as he chooses to embrace who he is, rather than what he is not. My grandma (his wife) never lied about what she was and it was the cause of many arguments.
I think that between the lines being called Mexican meant you were treated differently, maybe better? Times in the past are lost to us as we can only live in the present so don't think being proud was what he meant then.
My great grandmother was Cheyenne. My grandmother would never talk about her life growing up or tell any of us grandkids anything. I wish she had!
@@Sylkenwolf same here man
I grew up in Alamogordo new Mexico, some of my best friends were on the reservation, we always visited, brought food and medicine to our friends at the reservations. I miss them dearly but it has been 20 years or more since we've been there.
Sioux Ghost Dance is an 1894 black-and-white silent film from Edison Studios, produced by William K. L. Dickson with William Heise as cinematographer. Filmed on a single reel, using standard 35 mm gauge, it has a 21-second runtime. The film was shot in Edison's Black Maria studio at the same time as Buffalo Dance.[1] These are two of the earliest films made which feature Native Americans. In this film, a group of Sioux warriors, including two boys, perform the Ghost Dance. According to the Edison catalog, the performers in both films were genuine Sioux people wearing traditional regalia and war paint. All were veterans of Buffalo Bill's Wild West show.[2]
Thomas Edison's "Black Maria Film Studio" in West Orange, New Jersey, USA was world's first film studio.
I am Asian and I've always felt a spiritual bond with my Native Indian brothers n sisters, see you in the afterlife where we will run wild and free together in paradise - love n peace reigns

there a only a few time when I'm allowed to have something beautiful come into my life. I Am a northern grass dancer from Fort peck Reservation. to see them dance even in silence was powerful my hear opened. then as I saw the ghost dance and heard the song I began to cry powerfully as a child that lost his grandmother but as happy as a child who had a perfect birthday. very intense. I'm still shaking from the experience. my heart longs for more songs from the past.
Carries Water yes mine does too. I cried when I saw the ghost dance too. To think those are our great grandfathers and grandmothers fighting to keep the traditions alive... it hurts to think about all that was lost through time. But I am proud to be native, I am proud to call myself a Kaw woman, even though our numbers are so few now. I miss my grandmother too.... we called her Eco

It resonates beautifully, with you, and that's why you have such a natural, strong reaction to it. Music is vibration, and it changes our body's chemistry, affects our cells and many body functions, such as blood pressure, heart rate, and serotonin levels, some even raise blood sugar responses, in extreme adrenaline rush, from high-powered, fast tempo songs
Dude u look like a grass dancer from holland gtfoh 5 dollar fuck

The Native American tribal governments were the first to declare war on Japan 1 day before the U.S. officially declared it, and had declared war on Germany in 1939. After Pearl Harbor native men showed up to recruitment stations armed with rifles and in war paint asking for a ship to Japan. Then of course the code talkers who without them the success of the pacific campaign and lesser so but still equally important European campaign. They certainly get the praise but when people only focus on the negatives that’s all anyone sees

They did not want to share their sacred dance with the film man so they did it backwards . I went to an in-depth conference and they shared this information almost 100 years later when someone finally realized it . Lol smart people

It sounds so much alike old traditional Korean songs they sand during the funeral as they carry coffins to the grave. And also after they bury the coffin, they would sing this as they step on the ground as circling on it. This gave me goose bumps. Thank you so much for the upload.
Wow very impressive comments.
How do you know that slow beat music sounds like old traditional send away Korean funeral song?
I grew up with that culture and I used to watch them when half dozen or more mens carrying coffin and they sing and chanting very similar to this kind of sounds.
Native American Indian language and culture show similarities with Korean cultures.

This resonates with my African heart...beautiful!
Wow this is beautiful, I’m currently reading a big book on Native American history by Jon E. Lewis and it’s incredible. It’s awful how they have suffered but so glad they are still here and able to practice the ways of their ancestors.
the most beautiful people ever..
FIRST AMERICANS
Yes first américains and last américains. All the others don t mérite To be américain! Isnt they ground. Only indian native.
they aren't Americans until it was made America
e aguilar ...😂 Indians aren't even native to America. They migrated across the Bering straits land bridge and slaughtered the Aztec ancestors that lived here and forced the survivors south in to Central America.
Natives owned 1/6 of slaves during the civil war..... natives also are from Siberia and wiped out the people that were here prior to them soooooooooooooo
e aguilar really?
I am not of the Hopi tribe, I am Ojibwe or Anishinaabe. I love watching the ancestors showing our culture. I was raised to never hide who I am & to be proud of my Ojibwe heritage. I am fortunate enough to understand my tribal language. I am very proud to use my Anishinaabe name which is Zaasijiwanook translated to English (rough translation) "sparkling rippling splashing water" which is the the water coming off a waterfall and hitting the rocks then splashing or spraying. Its meaning is more beautiful in Ojibwe. 😀😂
HI I am metí and a bit of cree. I’m part of the battle river region
There is native American in my ancestry. Hearing the drums, listening and watching the videos brings peace to me.
I am Maori native from the land of the long white cloud Aotearoa New Zealand, we rarely give permission to capture images of our lives. Because our lives belongs to us, the people of the land. We don't consider ourselves as New Zealander's because it is an extension of colonization, we don't acknowledge the foreigners doctrine of discovery. We acknowledge native people and respect native culture, we stand with our native families and fight alongside our native siblings. As for this old footage, I feel there's something not right, it feels unsettling and sadness becomes of me seeing this footage on many channels besides this one.
My native name "No te Moana" (from the Sea/Ocean)
Good comment. The ghost dance, should never be shown to the public
All traditions and beliefs should be respected. I'm of the old Irish and my family name is Tuaim. It has two meanings; the broad shoulders on which the Goddess rides, and the graveyard of pagans. I hold to the old ways but I live in modern USA. My heart cries for the people lost in time and the people of today's obscene ways. Hold fast and honor your culture because it belongs to the soul of your ancestors. They won't forget you, never forget them.
I'm glad you wrote this. I too found it unsettling in my senses. These men were putting on a show. Perhaps they had good intentions or received something of importance in return. One today can't know. But this was not done as a true dance. Still, as a white man I found it interesting.
@Oftin Wong oh don't get me wrong. I enjoyed it and I love these old time movies. I've no doubt this is as authentic as could be. I'm glad it was made etc. However, the point is that it was not truly authentic. That there was a key piece of the ceremony missing. And that's unfortunate to me.
@Oftin Wong these things will not go away. Nice chat bro.
Powerful and poignant. We honor and respect your culture and people and want to learn. 🌿
The photographs at the end are so beautiful and amazing, thanks for mentioning the sources appreciate it.

Something i learned in my anthropology studies is that many of these old photos and videos of natives were setup by photographers for a certain look and weren't naturally filmed.
Every time I hear Native chants and drumming it makes me cry. We have strayed so far from our connection with Gaia and we must return to find balance. thank you.
Crack a fuckin book that wasn't written by Depach Chopra and you'd realize they were slash and burn agriculturalists, and they were nomadic because their unsustainable practices decimated the landscape. Also it was pretty handy to have a few slaves laying around so after they slaughtered the men and boys of their neighboring tribes, they had lots of extra low-maintenance cattle. How about a connection with reality, Witchy-poo? Connection with gaia, fuck off. You don't know shit about the natives. They were savages. They were monsters.
@@TheBigMclargehuge No one should be worshipped because there are no heroes. You're destroying a lot of fantasies here. Ha!
For those who don't know. Ghost Dance means it's about to get real

This is remarkable. Yes, profound connection to their environment, and yes, incalculable cultural loss.
