Most tribes are very private so seeing the dances and practices that are on social media are an honor. During feast some tribes (in new mexico at least I cannot speak for other places) absolutely do NOT allow videotaping, photos or anything like that they will take away your devices and erase what ever you photographed or recorded. You need to ask permission from the tribe if you can do this. There is a reason behind it which I will not go into because it is not my place to say.

not just Americans or really not just in western countries either. In Japan, the japanese would travel to Europe countries to see how foreigners are like in their own country but still heavily disregarded and discriminated to this day their indigenous people and only in the last 20 ish year were they allowed to practice their culture and speak their language, before that it was illegal, and was just recognized the the japanese gov't as the native people of japan last year. And just like the Native in all of North America, they were given land that the settlers didnt was but they were never allowed to keep them in the family once the original land owner died. They are still seen as a entertainment attraction or as stupid lower classed group to this day. Im not defend the settlers in NA because what they did to the indigenous people is abhorrent and disgusting, but dont think its just american who do this. This is a global problem that needs to be addressed in almost every country.

I honestly disagree. I honestly don't see a difference in excavating Lucy (from Ethiopia) vs the Kennewick Man (North America). And no, I don't believe the actions of our family members and countrymen means we owe reparations or double standards (What does the native American Genocide have to do with excavating ancient remains). Not to mention any discoveries made from the remains being lost (I don't think thats worth sacrificing for the sake of other people's feelings).
@pienutbutter..3 жыл бұрын
@@slyninja4444 I completely get your point and agree with you to some extent, as I personally do not feel much of a connection to ancient remains, or identify with them. I also get your comparison but you could have used a more relevant example like comparing two Homo sapiens, as Lucy is not seen as an ancestor of natives of the area. While the colonisation and with it the genocide of America may not directly have anything to do with it, you can see how natives would see value in reclaiming what is so important to their identity, what colonial Americans have no (ancestral) right to claim, so to speak. Especially since they did not have a say in the colonisation. I completely agree with your last point, as reburying remains will definitely result in loss of knowledge, both for natives and others. To me, it seems a shame, but I can also see how respect towards your ancestors and culture can be more important thatn scientific knowledge.

@@pienutbutter.. I gave you an example of China because natives have the same method of worshiping their ancestors as people in China, By burning them. If their culture was to dig up their ancestors as a form of worship and the government decided to bury their ancestors remains, I guess the Indonesian culture would apply as an example. I can understand why you don’t know what the big deal is, because it’s not in your culture. I didn’t understand it in the beginning either since it not a big deal in my culture. I lived in China for 10 years, and slowing their culture and values sunk in. Even now I can say there is so much I don’t know. I have found small similarities between Chinese culture and the culture of natives in Canada. All I can say to you is, I’m sure there are certain values that you hold as well, that define your identity, that are important to you. Maybe you can make a connection with that to understand.

White culture is the food we eat, the clothes we wear, Christmas, most TV shows etc. We are so wrapped up in our culture we don't recognize it as culture. Also our white cultures in the USA and Australia are young, newer cultures made from a mixture of various other (mostly European) cultures.

This reminds me about my university’s conference with the Hupa and Yoruk tribes, which highlights a variety issues ranging from cultural appropriation to generational trauma to human trafficking and so forth. They even hosted indigenous people week that were booked with spokespersons from these tribes, presented independent film documentaries, current issues with colonisations, and so forth. It was such an experience to have, and something I’m so grateful to have learned that I would have never known by just living in the big city

As someone who grew up in Europe, quite far from native cultures, I find them so beautiful and calming. I truly wish there was more representation in media to learn about them. The traditional clothing, the music, their belief systems are all so beautiful to me. I am quite glas modern social media has given them at least a small voice to represent themselves, although mainstream media needs to show them.

Many times, the first feather earned by a warrior was given to him for being seen as an adult member of the tribe.

Hey, for anyone who's also indigenous reading this, I have been working on plotting this comic recently and I want to know if it'd be a good idea to make or something you'd wanna read. It is essentially a horror fantasy, and the central themes are about growth and keeping your own culture alive, but also about how genocidal actions can be carried out by regular people. The story is about several indigenous children who get taken from their families through one way or another and are brought to an assimilation school. Many of the main characters are two spirit, and the plot is driven by them kicking out the people running the school and turning it into a safe environment for other indigenous children. (Because I am also making this as partially a revenge fantasy against people who ran those schools in real life) I'm gonna be making the storytelling very centered around spiritual magic as well, kinda like a studio Ghibli film if you've ever seen one. So please give me your opinion and ask any questions because I want to know if this is a launch worthy idea.

Disclaimer: I do not use "Eskimo" or "Indian" to describe native and/or indigenous peoples, but are the best ways to describe this situation. We Eskimo (at least in Alaska) do consider ourselves native, but we claim to have little relation to Indians. Our language family is completely seperate, and we used to have wars with each other. This is why we consider all of us as native, but still have this mentality of being different from Indians.
