I did my research, and found on my mother’s side I have grandmothers and grandfathers born as Indigenous people in Michigan, Canada and Wisconsin as well as from France. But I am still sad because while I have the exact names and locations of my indigenous grandparents, history and tribes everyone I spread the word to down plays. At work, they think it’s a joke. I am not wanting to become mean about it, but how can I prove to people this is serious, and that indigenous people really do exist? Even though I guess I would be called Métis, the US doesn’t use this term and I live in Detroit right by Canada, and my peoples been here 100’s of years! Nobody listens and shrug me off. I feel very alone and confused to who I am, even though I have my history documented! I see the reason people want to die and are depressed, I am a living proof of a misfit lost. But my ancestors do come to me literally and tell me to keep going and I am solid. Sorry for the long posts, I was just wondering if anyone else is hurting and confused

Listen to your ancestors, ask for answers, dreams are usually a powerful place to get those answers from.

My take on your post is you are looking for community, on every level. . There are many things that make us indigenous. It's not just bloodline, or just living with Ndns, or learning rituals. . it's a combination and it sounds like what you are needing is community. Depending on where you are or who you connected to, you are on a path of figuring it out. Asking yourself why is important. I've traveled a lot in my lifetime and people continually come to me with this, "not able to prove" feeling, or other disconnectedness. If this is about what you can get out of being Indigenous (I'm not saying that's what it is), you might want to redirect your intentions. We are often romanticized, (and other misconceptions) and there's a lot of people who "play Indian" mimicking the stereotypes. Many of us who have lived centuries of being Indian/Native/Indigenous are angry because living in the country, disenfranchised, ROBBED of our birthright is infuriating. Living with the affects of intergenerational trauma is so prevalent still!! So everyone is on a path to healing, wherever we are at. I hope you find yours. If you want to PM me, I'd be happy to continue this conversation. Again, think of your intentions. .sit with it. .if you feel upset by whatever I have written, figure out why. . It's not an easy path, especially if it's for self gain.

Hi Lauren, thank you for sharing your story. Just wanna say how I relate. I'm doing something similar about my maternal grandparents in Indonesia, a multinational country that believes it trumped over White settler colonialism by establishing a native-ruled country, but in fact gave some domestic indigenous "majority" nations colonial privileges over all the other "minorities." Imagine if White settler US didn't exist, and a handful of dominant Native American nations ruled a pan-Indian country at the expense of more minor Indian nations... well, that's the kind of country I come from, if it makes any sense. My maternal grandparents were a last generation indigenous minority from a small island near Timor--politically part of Indonesian territory, but basically a different cultural nation compared to the dominant Java-Bali-Malay images the international world tends to identify Indonesia with. Although my grandparents were successful in Java (the "main island"), a lot of this success came with sacrificing their cultural heritage and ties to this motherland in order to assimilate to the more dominant Javanese society. Today I am writing a travel memoir about my attempts to get to know my grandparents' motherland and the cultural heritage they left behind in order to give their children and grandkids a better life in Java-ruled Indonesia. And it's quite a lonely journey because I'm addressing a lot of uncomfortable truths in a society that does not acknowledge them and want to pretend that I've "evolved" beyond the "primitive" people that my great-grandparents were in the outback. The sad thing is, even my extended family can be divided on what our identity as diaspora of this indigenous culture, and what kind of a relationship we should aim to maintain / rekindle with the motherland. I may not know much about the culture you come from or have anything much in common with you. But from one displaced indigenous sister to another, I just want to send you the universe's positive energies and hope for finding a community that understands and values what you do.

Chicano is believed by some scholars to be a Spanish language derivative of an older Nahuatl word Mexitli ("Meh-shee-thee"). Now “Latino” and “Hispanic” are European terms that were misused/coined by the Anglo Richard Nixon administration during the 1970s. Latinos are from Italy, Spain, Portugal, France, and Romania.

Yo everyone who watches this, don’t just share it. Start talking about it with your peers. Find out which ones in your community will listen to your ideas about change. Listen to the ones who are talking about the things that are wrong.

The colonization of the "Philippine Islands", I think, is the cause of the majority of the problems of our society. We have to really look into "decolonising" our minds, our structures from how we look at gender and family and political systems, our design principles and aesthetic, and every single aspect of modern life. We were highly civilized prior to the arrival of the Europeans: economically and socially robust. Maybe we need to start appreciating that and work from there.

Indigenous people have concrete beauty.

The Truth and Reconciliation Commission spent years studying mortality rates and other conditions in the Residential Schools. At no time was there a mortality rate of 50%. For a few years in the late 19th century it hovered around 25%. For the first half of the 20th century, the death rate was about 3x that of children in the general Canadian population (6 per 1000 vs 2 per 1000) . After WWII the rates are virtually the same. Indigenous populations were more susceptible to smallpox, but the practice of immunization was inconsistent. The worst outbreak among non-indigenous Canadians occurred in 1885 when thousands died. It's one thing to avoid discussing past events and call it historical amnesia. But history from any perspective can be tainted by ideology.

We need this decolonization and indigenization of Canada. Much Indigenous land is occupied in 'Canada'. I don't think the solution is everyone moving home to their country of origin, but rather walking forward together, accepting responsibility for the wrongs of the past, and partnering to make a better future together. Truth and reconciliation can bring Indigenous peoples and settlers together in an equal, just, and mutually beneficial relationship. I'm writing this from the unceded territory of the Sto:lo people.

We cannot know how North American First Nations cultures might have culturally evolved if they had discovered industrialization for themselves. They get to pretend that they would have been enlightened rather than being a product of their stage of cultural development. We do need to address the current inequalities from the damage caused by historical atrocities. This, I respect.

I agree that it is important to know who we are, but since I believe in evolution, I know who I am. I am a descendent of apes. I am a descendent of hunter gatherers out of Africa. Our languages might be good. But they might also divide us. Our original human language was likely a click language. A fascinating book titled The Master and His Emissary about how language, though beneficial in many ways, may have resulted in us favoring our Left brain over our Right.

I would ask that these leaders offer concrete solutions and strategies now. In this 13 minute talk the only solution I saw was "dismantle that" referring to past injustice and the changing of land ownership away from indigenous people. It is too vague.

I’m assuming this lady has ancestry from El Salvador since she mentioned Cuzcatlan in her opening statement. In that case I also assume she claims Pipil ancestry even though she is likely from a Mestizo/a origin due to the surviving Pipil population in El Salvador being extremely small. I am unaware if she was actually speaking Nawat or perhaps a somewhat corrupted version of Nahuatl, however it is clearly not her native language as her poor pronunciation would show. Also, the Nawat language I believe only has a few hundred or few thousand speakers left as it was recently on the brink of extinction. The strange thing is that this woman also claims Maya ancestry as she incorrectly refers to her ‘Mayan’ prophecy. This echoes of appropriation and I am not attempting to criticize her but simply trying to speak the truth. If she has descent from El Salvador then it would be logical to claim descent from the Pipil, or to a lesser extent the Lenca. The fact that she also claims Maya ancestry when the Maya population of El Salvador is minuscule if not non existent in the present day. The land itself was home to Maya groups in the past, but the Pipil became the largest group in the area upon their arrival. That speaks to another important notion, the fact that the Pipil themselves were not indigenous to the land of El Salvador. The Pipil migrated all the way from Central Mexico around the 10th century AD if I am not mistaken. Therefore, it may be that she is appropriating Maya ancestry as a means of romanticizing her own heritage, especially since she refers to her ‘Mayan’ prophecy. This would be logical yet slightly diabolical if she is attempting to profess a more spiritual and historic connection to indigeneity, as the Maya are far more renowned for their achievements and civilization as a whole. If she is appropriating Maya culture or even an indigeneous background in general then that is definitely problematic. Of course she has some degree of indigenous ancestry but the fact that she’s claiming Pipil and Maya when she’s probably just half Salvadoran is certainly dubious. Once again I am not trying to be divisive or critical but there seem to be a few issues with her identity, and that can be very detrimental despite the good work she may do for the indigenous community overall.

@@tlamatini4617 A drop of European blood? She is clearly predominantly of European ancestry. She is literally half white because her mother is Irish/Scottish. Her father is Salvadoran and more than likely a Mestizo. That would make her at the most only 25% indigenous on paper. So in all likelihood the most she could be is a Castiza or possibly a Harniza but this would assume that her father has either at least 50% or 60% indigenous DNA. that would be a large portion of indigenous DNA for a Salvadoran, and more likely that he has around 40% or less. So it is likely that this woman has roughly low 20's of indigenous DNA as a percentage or perhaps even less. You mention her 'dominant' native genetics even though they are not dominant in her phenotype. Although she may have some remote indigenous characteristics (mainly her eyes), she does not primarily have indigenous phenotypical traits. I am not trying to deny her right to indigenous identity or enforce any blood quantum requirements, but I am simply stating a reality. Her name is Nikki Sanchez and if you look up her name you will see that her identity is listed as Pipil/Maya and Irish/Scottish. Her instagram is nikkilaes if you want to see how she states her ethnicity. She also has pictures of her mother as a typical white woman and her father as a typical Mestizo looking Salvadoran.

We are also saying that the language of the Pipil is Nawat, not Nahuatl. This means that she is speaking the wrong language for her proposed indigenous group. Nobody is saying that she should speak Spanish or identify as Hispanic or Latina. However, it would be more genuine to clearly specify that she is of majority European descent, despite having a much smaller portion of indigenous ancestry. Her mother is a white woman who is Irish/Scottish. This shows that she is at least 50% white and likely more than 70%-80% white because her father is most likely a Mestizo Salvadoran who typically have about 30%-40% indigenous ancestry. That would give her possibly around 20% or less indigenous DNA.

It's a big topic. Might need to just look into it some more if you're interested.

I love seeing how hard those Israelis got "decolonized." 😂😂😂 Also, what nations? What territory? Are you speaking of the people who failed to invent the wheel? The ones who failed to write? Its ours now. 😂😂😂

interesting solar flare study shows vikings were in Canaduh likely over a thousands years ago, perhaps much earlier, in many places this could mean "first nations" are in fact second nations...

well the first Indigenous settlements are dated roughly 15,000 years ago, so not so much

Vikings landed in what is now Newfoundland & Labrador about 1,000 AD. The settlement did not succeed and they left.

I'm the descendent of white settlers and I support giving back vast areas of this land back to it's rightful hands. Lived in NM where there is more native land than most of the country. Was very conscious of feeling kind of like an invasive species. And of how recently this has happened on this land. Reading the comments from some of the white people, It's like people don't want to face it because it's too terrible. They react like angry children who are told Santa Claus isn't real. It's a lack of empathy.

💚🖤💜

colonising women, mother, children, then the land ....please love your children enough NOT to create them into a life of agony... please stop child abuse... men please take hold of your manhood and stop colonising women.... women please protect your womanhood and stop letting men colonise you... teach the truth of what is happening to children and our magnificent planet and then keep fighting to stop reward, punishment and grow back with nature towards nature cultures...

"A history that none of us should be proud of." This sentence is a hinge on which swings the future. And I think many, many people will beg to disagree.

Another thing. If we are able to work together to decolonize everyone, white people included, then I want to be adopted by a tribe and leave behind the white world. I am no longer able to function in it. I want to live in a sane and healthy manner, even if it means disowning the white people around me. The way things are currently, I want nothing to do with them. I've been burned by too many of them. I went into self-exile 3 years ago when I fled America for India. India is one of my ancestral lands, though I am not a citizen. I'm hoping against hope that I can change that. This video was made before the Plandemic. I hope that everyone sees by now some of the worst traits of the white man that have come out since 2020, which were more evident during the wild days of America's past.

Colonialism was a great thing and should have never died out. In the scheme of things it won’t die out for long, I don't know if it will be in my day, but there their will be a war. A war greater than any we have ever seen that rages through every continent and country, and from it's ashes the world will be reforged in the fires of imperialism. This war will come when people realize justice is a luxury and order is a necessity and the world will rise as one technocracy.

I really appreciate the mention of global colonization. Sumerians, Egyptians, Persians, Chinese, Greeks, Romans, Christians, Muslims, Ottomans. All have enslaved. We don't know the majority of those peoples. We remember the Celts, the Druids. We remember Boudica and Spartacus. But most we will never know.

@@23Revan84 That is a very skewed history of humanity you are spouting here. It's not a universal feature of human nature to desire to compete, dominate, and enslave others! It's our cooperative instincts that have enable humanity to survive and thrive. For example, what people call “tribalism” may be the source of war, genocide, etc, but it’s been given a bad rap by imperialism. In other words, tribalism without imperialism is a source of creativity, diversification, and discovery/testing new ways of being (in some ways analogous to genetic speciation, just based on the transmission of behavioural/social information, rather than genetic -though of course the two can feedback and steer each other). Mechanisms promoting tribalism have evolved in us precisely because they provide a large advantage to human being adaptability/survivorship. And, there have been many (many, many) “tribes” and scoeities historic and contemporary that exist outside of imperialistic ("enslaving") social-systems, and which have developed social-systems favouring cooperation and co-existence (rather than competition), and which have basically enabled humanity to survive thus far (unfortunately, the imperialistic societies are the ones that write the history books).

Nikki Sanchez is a pretendian. She is NOT “Pipil”, we do not even call ourselves “Pipil”. She is NOT part of our community!
