Shout out to teen vogue for this video. We native Americans are more than just teepees and warbonnets.
Vi flowerrr Your fore fathers were hebrew. Columbus recorded it in his diaries. He found this side of the earth by using the book of esdras in the bible, following the same route your fore fathers took to get to this side of the earth.
Part of the curses for breaking the commandments was the judgment of your people. Do your research and come out of idolatry, you are God's chosen people. Native Americans are lost Isrealites from the tribe of Gad & Reuben
Vi flowerrr
Sure don't look native American. Probably like all the others: 75% white 25% Native idk
Jake De La Cuesta lol you probably don't look like a dinosaur either so stfu
Vi flowerrr native americans definitely are not hebrew. idk why people are still on this dumb mess
Native americans are not hebrew. they're asians that came from east asia like china and korea.
So many other races don't understand the meaning of being a Native American. We Native Americans have many cultural beliefs and we have our own traditions/teachings that have been passed down from our ancestors. To us these pieces of clothing that big companies use are sacred to us, just have more respect of our beliefs. It's not that were saying all the companies are intending to be disrespectful. Me personally don't have a problem but i know my grandma would be very disrespected by it. You people who are saying since were "complaining" about a piece of clothing not to wear "American" clothes is very annoying because you really have to get our cultural side and than you will understand. We don't just get mad to get mad about it, we just have very strong Native beliefs an you wouldn't know if you weren't Native American. Just understand that some of us Native Americans don't like when a different race wears our traditional piece attire because we feel disrespected, just like how other races have their traditional ways that we respect, we have ours.
Yelly Yellez lmao what culture? Big lips and side braids arent black culture so stfu and stop strengthening your hair
cydni taliman yess Amen sister

On the rez
i love how Native Americans are so connected to the earth & the universe & so spiritual. You can tell that she is very kind hearted
Anyone can be like that,It depends on the person not their race or heritage.
@@nuttybar9 While that is true, it comes more naturally to natives. Especially indigenous people who continue to live in harmony with the earth and universe. Despite all the pressure to give up and be modern and corrupted
@@voidremoved yes! stay strong my natives
Not all native Americans come from reservations
I love my ppl so much, we deserve so much more representation
I am native and I am very proud of my culture
I'm a Turk, I love Native Americans. we are one. common culture. common lineage. same brother.you Native Americans, your words, your philosophy of life, your view of the world are impressive.
@@ilbilgetomiris2760 i know i'm really late but i just wanted to say that i love your culture as well. it is so beautiful. It's all so rich and beautiful! Thank you :)
We are proud and excited for you... ;) Represent!

Bob Reeds you're nasty
I love it too!! All of my cousins have beautiful names as well like Morningstar Woman, Bear Spirit, Woman Standing by the Shore. I hope to the stars and back that I will be given a beautiful name as well.
Thai Cort stop calling us Indians, we are not from India, uh I hate the ignorance so much, people calls us Indians because when Columbus arrived to America he thought it was India.
@@inksword6029 **CLAPS** *THANK YOU*
+Ink Sword Do you know why he thought he was in India..? Because he saw the negros and their brown hued skin was just like the people of India thus calling us Indians not u watered down natives crying on reservations about how poor you are when you're supposed to be living off the land anyway, Indian...
Laughing cause TRUTH IS COMING BACK..
Perfect..!!
Shes so beautiful 😍
I'm somewhat find myself confuse/disappointed when she said that she feel "DISRESPECTED" when people wear Native American accessories, not knowing the meaning. I mean... I'm actually really proud that people would wear my people accessories, As long as they "wear it with respect" I'm PROUD (I would think that they have good taste ) Unless I mis- understood her. With all do RESPECT.
Theres certain native American accessories that are sacred and should only be worn at certain times
@@debaajmat7307 Its fine to feel disrespected if you explained that to them and they didnt care, but otherwise no.
@@debaajmat7307 accessories is not really the best word for that stuff, is it? Isnt that regalia? accessories is more like ear rings or a purse. Girl in the video should get more offended by native american stuff that is made overseas instead of in america. She could make the accessories herself then sell them to people and tell them about the items so they will know.
To each it’s own
@@debaajmat7307 would wearing a feather extension in hair be cultural appropriation. My mom wanted to put one in my hair but I don’t want to be disrespectful
So beautiful ❤❤❤
beautiful sister
Hermosura
I’m Native American too❤️
I’m Lenape and my name is Kayla and my Mom calls Me MayFeather or MayFlower
thats a beautiful name! your culture is so beautiful and i am so sorry for my terrible ancestors and their actions.
@@elizahamilton9590 I know I'm so late but please don't be sorry! You are not you're ancestors, you are you! Thank you for apologizing, but again it's not your fault. The most you can do right now is support us in some way, and you can do it without any donation! Sign petitions, learn about us and our history, or just do what you can! Have a good day you wonderful spirit :D
Love too the navajo people.😍😘😊
im native and i honor my people we stand together aahoo
I wasn’t taught my heritage or raised up in it I wish I was though because I had to go on ancestry to find out
Anyone know her @
My grandma was full blood Cherokee and she had the most beautiful long black hair that shined like a Ravens feathers but she cut it before she passed away. My grandma loved nature and her coffee. She was so beautiful. She loved her garden in a huge meadow she owned. I miss her so much but she was so amazing and I love her
May I have your permission to post this on some of the facebook groups I visit & have joined, as well as on my own fb page?
Most of us dont even live on the reservation, to begin with, but in the big cities like everyone else and no I never meet a native artist been upset if you purchase his jewelry and art and will be happy to tell you the item history just ask. ;)
Wow these typs of videos make people admit there true sons and doaghters of America its kinda beautiful.
Preache
Not only that
But if they do want to claim their payments they have to live on the reservation
At least that is how it is on my reservation in Canada
What tribe?
So pretty and natural. But. I love teepee
would wearing a feather extension in hair be cultural appropriation. My mom wanted to put one in my hair but I don’t want to be disrespectful
no, not if youre having the mindset of "its a native american thing" feather extensions aren't in first nation culture so.. i think your good
My question is how do you know if they do know the meaning of the Native American peace because I am Native American (Chiricahua Apache)
Hello, I was hoping someone can help me out. Where does your "indian" name come from? Is it a certain tribe that appoints you a name or do you give it to yourself? I am Navajo and I want to know if there is a name for mine.
I have a chickasaw name(im mixed w chickasaw) and my dad gave it to me. Its usually done through praying, sometimes it is related to clan, and some tribes have procedures and rules about how to name and who can name. It would be good for you to find a navajo elder and ask what the ceremonies/traditions might be.
When your 25% Dakota 25%Cree and 50%saeultuax
Im part german, polish and ukrainian and i can´t even tell the the percentage. ^^
people are so mixed today. ^^ but its good.
lol I see a few triggered snowflakes in the comment section...
I'm glad Teenvogue did this video :D
Asvea YES! Lol I'm starting to get triggered by the pure ignorance of people. Have a great day!
Beautiful
I think you are beautiful. Your inner beauty is your outer radiance. Thank you for sharing! Have a great night! Peace and love! Ruth
Gorgeous! Golly just such beauty.
So because feathers have cultural value to Native Americans, nobody else is allowed to wear them?
Lisa Plambeck no, that is not what she's saying.
Miss B And also, no one over the age of ten thinks all Native Americans lived in tepees. And no on over the age of five thinks Native Americans still live in tepees.
Lol
Yooo!! I went to the middle school with her!
hello
♥️
My dad is half native American and black. He didn't know much about his family because his mother died when he was very young. So there are some black native Americans who just don't really know. When people make videos like this without thinking, there black native Americans who really don't know about there ancestors. Please think that there are other races included with native Americans.
?
The real native american so called are really the so called black people and black is a color not a person thats why they call them a color so they can take thr land and culture ..the girl in the video is English and Spanish mix wit some Asian
Black doesn’t exist… so called African Americans Are indigenous aborigines the true American Indians
She is so beautiful...
Just got my DNA taken and found native American was in it. Well I been knew that lol
Ok then what's a PowWow
dna doesn't automatically make you native lol.
@@user-zt3rt8zo2g it's more than just blood
@@nomacehualpoyohuanv6075 i know, that was th point of my comment. i'm mescalero apache/nahua/yaqui
@Gal De Som what if u find out DNA has deceived everyone
Exactly! Hoka!
I respect your culture, but I think its a little ridiculous to feel disrespected when u see people wearing Native American accessories. As an Asian I see Asian accessories, clothing, patterns, tattoos all the time. If I felt disrespected every time I would be wasting alot of energy being negative. Its not always harmless, but sometimes u gotta let it go. #Frozen
Ma'am just because you see people you see people do that your culture doesn't mean it's okay to do to others. It's just as problematic that people do that to Asians as it is for them to do it to Native Americans. It's not being sensitive or angry its caring about your culture.
What she really is talking about is these items not sold by Natives but are fake made Native asssesories. Which western get profit off of. Such as Headdresses which is highly disrespectful since chiefs only wear headdresses we don't. And when someone feels entitled to wear one without understanding what they are doing. It shows a lack of respect.
@@Tasunka_Nightwolf Totally agree with u, ur right. My point is sometimes for our own mental health we have to let it go. If I wanted to braid my hair would black people look at me different? Would they know that braids go back as far in Korean history, too? 🤷♀️
We are here
Being native is a beautiful thing.
She’s really stunning. She kind of resembles some Japanese girl I used to go to school with
Thats because she is
dude, this is cool, i know you are omaha
CHU-- We are, not you! She, lied.
Tell me more
I want to comprehend wat u are saying
Dumb as - loon
I want to love Native Americans if I wasn’t
Does she understand the meaning of the western clothes she wears?
What western clothes? Most clothing considered European was taken from other cultures anyways. They weren't the first to create a shirt and dress.
@@CRAZY4BEINGCRAZY and Indians invented feathers and beads?
Abe Mccluskey you mean indigenous. Indian is in India. yup and out of clay and turquoise too and Feathers (eagle feathers to be more respectful) which Americans later took as a symbol for America only.
@@CRAZY4BEINGCRAZY OK fair enough.
What meaning? Our clothes have meaning?
a
I dont understand why feel disrespected? how do you expect someone to know the meaning of your accessories if there not Native American. Maybe some people may know but not everyone will, for example if you were invited to a Native American pow wow and you brought some beautiful accessories their you not going to know the meaning of it. and when you go to the store and buy other peoples culture accessories do take the time to learn the meaning of it. I love the pride you have about your culture but lets keep it real not being rude but just saying,,
how does she know if a person knows the meaning of the stuff? has she spoken to everyone who she sees wearing native american accessories?
Those who are determined to be ‘offended’ will discover a provocation somewhere. We cannot possibly adjust enough to please the fanatics, and it is degrading to make the attempt..Gullibility and credulity are considered undesirable qualities in every department of human life, except religion and cultures."Take the risk of thinking for yourself; much more happiness, truth, beauty, and wisdom will come to you that way."

Hi
nizhoni sister
That girl is cute as a button!
San Carlos Apache here..
I'm romanian and I don't know and I don't care what out national costumes mean and could care less if you wore them. It's not that fucking deep.
isla Δ boohoo so go piss on Romanian culture.
Hy Ch Qa💛☠️
White
no! a people group can vary in colour.
You shouldn't have explain yourself, you are the true Americans.
Lie!!!
It shocks me that people think these things like “they don’t exist”.. what? I’ve never heard anyone say that but I’m sure they know because they’re the ones living it
Of course people do we know your still here. Only natives out west lived in tipis people here in the south lived in chi-cis anyway yeah
Im proud to be a first nation.
You know, i have this connection to trees and the ground.
Well and im depressed that i had to cut half of my hair of. I lost a part of my self when it was cut off. My senses and my emotions are now supressed. Im weak without it.
My grandma is half native American
@alflybear don't be disrespectful
Where can I ask for your hand in marriage?
I feel her when people wear native accessories I feel disrespected
But they like your culture?
@@char5285 you dont have to wear something to show appreciation to it. It's not always complimentary, especially when they look bad
Please just only marry from you trip so reserve your race . We need you on earth
why did she call herself an indian
Lol
🤣🤣🤣
tfw you let your culture define your entire life.
DarklordDaUnicorn DaThird she's in one video about it.... how is that her entire life?
You think we have no culture because we spread our culture across the globe and you're bitter about it. Ever heard of a suit and tie? That's European culture. Fencing, ballet, wrestling are some of the more obvious cultural activities of white people, if you actually want to see real white culture, take a trip to Rome and stare in awe at the architecture, nothing compares to it and it's thousands of years old.
Meanwhile in Africa you have huts made of cow shit and child slaves. Fucking incredible.
DarklordDaUnicorn DaThird Okay everyone one knows that whites do have culture too and what she said was stupid and mean. but there's no reason for you to be a pig about it too. you're both idiots.
DarklordDaUnicorn DaThird Caucasians come from the CAUCUS MOUNTAINS in Georgia Russia. Cave Men & Cave Women. Everything you have has been appropriated. The best culture vultures are caucasian.
She's not letting her culture define her life. It's just that when your culture has been historically, or presently threatened and/or attacked, your respect for your culture grows tenfold. You learn to cherish your culture when it's being targeted. For example, as a result of The Troubles, most people in Northern Ireland are highly divided based on their identity as the two sides of the war were attacked for decades, and as a result, both sides grew stronger love for their own culture.
Native Americans in Canada get free schooling.
Latesha English Yup it's true
Edenn Bvd evgle No, they do not.
Native communities are plagued with dropouts drugs etc, once natives meet the requirements to get into school the tribe helps pay. You ignorant yt.
I know it's beautiful BUT y'all should've keept it CONFIDENTIAL
Kept just saying
There is nothing wrong with wearing another culture’s accessories. As long as u know the name of it (u don’t need to know the cultural significance/history behind it) -A native american
i disagree
yes thats what she means as long as its not a sacred thing
She might be native american but them teeth are 100% british.
Well shes mixed so
britney danh and how would you know? She may not be full native American but she still is part and who cares, she has the right to express herself and her culture
Majority of natives have crooked teeth. Fyi
Mrfaceless XD how can someone's teeth be British??
she's cute
Oh everyone else of every other culture can't wear feathers? Then you can't wear jeans because that's not part of your culture. Im not 100% white tho. Soy Latina tambien! Soy colombiana. Not Columbia COLOMBIA! I hate it when people spell Colombia wrong.🇨🇴💖
Shut up snowflake!
Valeria Garcia are jeans part of your culture, or sacred? Used in prayer? Stuff like that?
Latina isn't a race so? U can be full white and be Latina lol 😂
Sadly the natives get upset so quickly for anything. I wear feathers in my hair whether I understand the meaning of them or not. Why do they feel disrespect because of this? They should lighten up a bit more and not be so susceptible with everything.
I'd bet money more white people in America can live with this nations land and wilderness better then she can 😂😂😂
The Truth B a white lady could barely survive in the Everglades when native tribes lived there for hundreds of years so :/ try again sweaty
The Truth B don’t have to be so racist, typical ignorant american
The Truth B what white people? Y'all barely exist today 😂😂😂 now that's funny!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Native Americans are just Siberian’s that traveled to the Americas. Look it up
Henessy Martinez lol then why are there Mexicans getting their DNA with zero percent any Asian and Asians getting zero percent native. Natives especially the southwest don't even look Asian and they are darker or "red" then Asians.The natives are natives and have always been it's ridiculous to think that a group of people walked in conditions that were considered inhabitable by scientists and archeologists saying themselves and during the ice age half of America wasn't even frozen but Europe was surprisingly so maybe they have more secrets hidden but focus more on a myth. There are even depictions or petroglyphs in Mexico of what people call dinosaurs on stone.
IridescentSoul bro look it up 🗿 and wtf does that have to do with what it said
IridescentSoul and you can trace natives dna all the way back to Siberia 😂
Henessy Martinez the fact you're laughing just displays your sense of immaturity.
IridescentSoul I’m laughing because of how very little you know
If I wear Native American accessories and I don't know the meaning of it, you would be disrespected by it? But if I wear Native American accessories and I Know the meaning of it, you'd probably still be disrespected by it because I'm nOt Native American? Culture is to be shared, learned, and expressed by everybody and anybody.
Glenda Guerra it's only disrespectful if a non-Native who is ignorant on not knowing the meaning behind these sacred items but I agree culture is to be shared and expressed by those who are interested. But you must also look at it from a perspective from a Native American where our culture and traditions are very important to us. And when someone disrespectfully appropriates our culture then it's offensive.
I dont think its appropriate to wear certain sacred items even if youre native depending on what the item is sacred to and who is allowed to wear it(ive seen natives disrespect sacred items plenty in my life). I dont see a problem with non natives wearing beadwork or moccasins but I think its better to source them from native people, like buying mocs from a native owned tradepost instead of minnetonkas, etc.
so sacred and the earings were bought at Walmart made in china... please... leave people alone and find something else to be triggered about
This is so dumb, telling people what they can and can't wear. If someone wants to wear a feather in their hair it doesn't matter. It's not disrespect. If someone wants to wear Native American jewelry good for them. Most of the time it's Native Americans selling it anyways. And yes I am a Native American, I'm Yaqui.
Lol good try, Mexican and Indian
Ay something mental must be wrong with you. I was speaking about myself.
Natalie Martinez what? Lire?
Sometimes people like op try to hard and most times its entertaining
@@booboo3258 Mexican isn't a race
Don't worry indians, I meet a wetbag and he was wearing a Lady Gaga shirt,
Will you *STOP SAYING INDIANS*
"I feel disrespected because you don't know the meaning of it".... wtf? This is how you deal with racism? feeling disrespected and closing up to other cultures? Don't fucking feel disrespected, if someone doesn't understand, explain, because you haven't even given them chance to know. Do you expect every fucking person in this world to know about Native Americans and judge they're knowledge and respect by that? Honestly...
Well then get educated on Native American culture and traditions. It's just offensive when people who are non-Native try to disrespectfully appropriate our culture. If you're educated or have some knowledge then you'd understand why it's disrespectful to wear headdresses, etc. These are sacred items and it's very hurtful to me when I see non-Natives disrespectfully wear it to mock us and be blatantly racist.
TheFamiliarStranger You are already being disrespectful now.
TheFamiliarStranger Why give people a chance to learn when they already don't give 2 shits about what they know their doing.
markallenwils why would you assume that?
This comment has such a 'I like this thing, so I must have it and no one should question it' vibe to it. Check yourself girl. No one is entitled to educate you, you must do it yourself. Also its their, not they're.
this is the bootleg native...
You think you can find a better native
Well I guess you can only wear Native American clothes now. If you wear anything else outside of "your" culture, like jeans per say, you yourself will be culturally appropriating someone else's culture. Actually this video in of itself is cultural appropriation because Native Americans didn't invent the video camera, so therefore this video is culturally appropriated, therefore it offends me.
Oh, I see you are wearing lipstick. Are you also an Ancient Sumerian of Egyptian using it as a display of your social status? [en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lipstick] Our problem is with people ripping off our ancient Egyptian design and disgracing things sacred to the Ancient Egyptians. Your face in of itself is not cultural appropriation. We have no problem with people buying legit ancient lipstick and moccasins [blogs.scientificamerican.com/observations/back-in-style-an-ancient-shoe-from-3500-b-c-looks-like-moccasins-worn-in-the-1950s/] for example.
You don't think lipstick is sacred?! That offends me.
BananaKingVideos but if I had a beer on my left hand and a clover on my right and dye my hair orange will the Irish be offended ......
BananaKingVideos video camera is a modern thing lipstick was condition on our minds to look beautiful ..... But if I was to walk around with a green skirt with the funny looking flute just because for the fuck of it wont it offend a Irish man ....... Would a Muslim have the right to get mad at me if I'm dressed up with my head wrapped and don't pray too ala ...... Would a Jew chase me down the street if I wear the little hat they have on the center of there heads with the black shoes with the elevator thick rubber grips ...... And will a Chinese man get annoyed by me trying to grab my food wrong with a chopstick doing it all fucking wrong...... It's just symbolism ... It's like burning a bible to keep myself warm in front of you . To me it's to keep warm but in your eyes it's disrespectful , offensive and wrong , so when other people dress up like my ancestor with chicken feathers dancing around the fire it's offensive because it's sacred and it just feels bad..... If you don't see what I'm saying I think you just don't have a culture or you don't take sacred things serious or its you do t have respect for your other human relatives
BananaKingVideos Your comment *seriously* triggers me. I feel like you didn't even get the point or message of the video.
