I heard that the government basically told him he couldn't use them for religious purposes...and the first thing he does is re-bless the feathers! Aho! Can't take away religious freedoms!

I'm so happy u got ur feathers back they had no right to take them in the first place

Congratulations to Robert Soto, a great Lipan Apache Elder. He got his feathers back. AHO!

Tears.....I have Tears.....some of JOY....and some of great sadness....that WE ARE STILL NOT FREE...TO BE OURSELVES...

My family and I have been blessed to have Robert Soto as a very dear and close friend during our time in Fort Hood, Texas. Robert and his family always made us feel at home when we went to Pow Wow's and we were very fortunate to have such a great and loving friend as him in our lives. It's a terrible thing the Government did to him and I'm so glad to hear and see his feathers returned.

I cried when he smudged the feathers,aho!

My heart was very happy for our sisters and brothers!

Thank you for showing us this video. I am pleased things were returned.

continuing to share this important win 10 years after the Holy Spirit told Pastor Robert Soto to keep up the fight and he listened and the battle was won. Congratulation Pastor Robert, other need to understand this and not give up. AHO!!

Congratulation to my people I'm proud to be Apache!!😀👍

I know Robert Soto and it is such an answered prayer for him and his tribe to win this battle. He followed the Holy Spirit guidance and won!

I hope the federal agents who took the feathers have been somehow punished.

I'm DNA traced back 23,000 thousand years in North America. Sacred family

did they say why they we're taken?

Tho it’s good it’s always sickening that someone somewhere can make native peoples subject to ink and paper for something that is as a part of them as there first breath.

Buona sera io vengo da italia mi è stato detto che i miei antenati erano apache mio 3 nonno e mia 3 nonna cerokee è possibile? Perchè se è vero son molto orgoghioso voghio bene a tutti i nativi americani

I’m not native from Africa- why Is the government so against him using the feathers for religion? Isn’t there a first amendment

WOW

Justice at last

Sorry if I say the ron thing I Mexican but my grand father always talks me you an Apache You family is American I don’t know just i will like to fin up I love to live on the country of in I live on nc marshville

This is a great story but still a tragedy for some. The First Amendment limits the governments power over the individual (Religion). However, the limit also calls for being a federally recognized Native Tribe to be able the use of Eagle Feathers for culture and religious means. What about the tribes that are not recognized? What about the Indigenous people of Mexico/South America/ and Canada? If a Native is from Canada or Mexico, and their religion calls for the use of the majestic eagle feathers, and they become U.S. citizens, are they allowed to use these? No they are not. Why? Because of only federal recognition. Truly sad.

Why isn’t the lipan Apache tribe federally recognized?

What a bunch of frauds 💯

Americans brag on "religious freedom", but if you are not of one the three major monotheistic religions, count on repression. Remember the Boarding School days? Even Irish Catholics were once very discriminated against especially in New York. We have a very long way to go to live up to our (National) aspirations.

Fake Apaches ! Lol my grandpa is Jicarilla & Chiricahua Apache

NI'ZOH'NII....

My dad is dancing in the Sky World. Lipan Apache. Lalalalalalalala. Sacred OWL WOMAN Texas
