I Entered The Most Remote Native American Tribe - Hopi (Invite Only) 🇺🇸
The Hopi Reservation is a remote place surrounded by the larger Navajo Nation and the much larger United States. Many Natives look at their tribe as their nation and in this case, the Hopis are in a way, on an island. Join me and local Lehauli as we learn about one of the most remote, fascinating, and unknown tribes in America. It definitely felt like I entered another country.

Dear Santenellos, you made part of my dream come true, of my curiosity of the OGs of America and their current way of life, wondering if I could visit and meet them. This was and is the best series I've watched. Thanks to you and your team, and to the First Tribes who welcomed you and gave us a real glimpse into their world. All the way from India, wish you all a good year ahead.

I took a trip from Canada to flagstaff a few years ago with the intention of exploring the desert and avoiding all tourist attractions. I drove to the middle of nowhere and parked my car. Grabbed my backpack and walked in the desert to camp for a week. During my wandering deep in the desert I came across a elder Hopi. He was so surprised to see me out there let alone a white man. He called me a crazy white man for camping in the middle of nowhere. We talked for sometime. He told me some history of his people and the history of the Hopi and some of their history with the Navajo. What an amazing man. I asked if I could take a picture of of him and he declined. Instead he gave me a necklace of his neck and as he put in me saying some words in Hopi and wished me safe travels. He went one way around a huge Mesa and and I sat there for a bit reflecting on a chance meeting. My trip to Arizona was truly an experience I will not soon forget. He was truly a beautiful human being.

Several years ago I took a drive across the three mesas of the Hopi. You almost feel as if you are on another planet up there. It is a truly special place.
i lived on the hopi reservation for 3 years while working at the critical access hospital there. One of the most fascinating times of my life; they are an amazing group of people, it genuinely feels like you are living in an alternate reality on their reservation. Def blessed to have been able to experience this
Thank you for this video, fellow Hopi here. Walpi, First Mesa to be exact. Its so fun to see my home from a different POV. This was a great glimpse of our world. I've lived out on Hopi basically my whole life from Headstart, grade school, high school, and even 2 semesters of college. You learn to adapt and know how to have fun in a place like this, but the culture is what also helps you to keep going and give a sense of purpose to life. But I now live in Flagstaff, AZ as i needed to explore more of what this world has to offer. One thing I'll never take for granted is calling this place my Home. Being a Hopi to me means being humble, appreciating your surroundings like all of the land and other creatures that live on it, helping family and friends, and being involved with the culture. Like they said in the video, covid really did impact a lot of things, this year alone our village is starting to do regular scheduled ceremonies, as of Feb. we are currently having the renewal of our katchinas (katsinas, the proper way to say it) is when the spirits return from the San Fransisco Peak in Flagstaff. Thats why we as people don't ever make efforts to go to the Snow Bowl Resort, just because it is that sacred to us. Its also true many elders have passed and that always makes my heart heavy, because there was so much knowledge that just disappeared. So in a sense many of us are clinging onto what we still have. Yes, we are a maternal type culture, its kinda crazy to think someone like me plays a big role just keep our clan alive. (as someone who is terrified of child birth, its scary to think about in a way, but one day when im truly ready) But there are so may stories to tell, i cant even fit everything i want in this comment. We as native people are all connected in one way or another. Even if people have beef, we learn something from one another, just never forget your roots. I would like to end it with We are here, we are still alive and we are still doing our best to preserve the culture. Thank you everyone for all these kind comments, I never would have expected 1 million+ people being intrested in our very small corner of the world. Askwali Peter, keep doing what youre doing, I can tell you have a good heart! Askwali eveyone! Never take anything for granted.

Thank you for sharing this. I first learned of the Hopi 4 years ago. I’ve heard about them but never learned anything about them until I watched the Hopi Prophesy. I could not stop watching… I watched and listened to the prophecy at least 30 times. After that I decided to let go of the material path and follow Yeshua through the garden. It’s been amazing, difficult and satisfying. Today we walk with our hands open as we journey through the garden. Something Yah taught me; “To walk through the garden you’ll need to walk with your hands open. If you take the material path you will have to walk with your hands closed.” Those words are heavy and so true. It’s a faith and trust walk when you take the garden path. Thank you Peter for going there to share the life of the Hopi people. One day, Adonai willing, I’ll be standing with the Hopi people.
Watching this immediately after Peter's trip to the NC Appalachia mountains...crazy difference! The best part though, is how the people of each place he visits is very welcoming and proud to show the land they love!
As someone who's lived near the Hopi I can say they are INCREDIBLE ! This is an actual blessing to be able to hear about this culture. RESPECT TO HOPI!!!!!! 🙏🏽

Oh man! I didn't expect there to be a Hopi one! I am Hopi, and as Lehauli described through my mother and her maternal lineage, we do follow that way. I am also Dine(Navajo) on my Dad's side, but I always introduce myself as a Hopi first. my Family is the snake clan (Tsu'yam) from Polacca (by first Mesa/Walpi). It's awesome to see this series and how he allows representatives of each culture to show him around. As Lehauli described it is a very different world and it always feel that way when I go back. It's a funny thought when I see a brand new Lexus or 3500 Dually trucks new cell phones while just 1.5 hrs north of Holbrook or Winslow there is the world your family comes from, an ancient way of beliefs and a tough way of living, yet we take pride of how much we appreciate it and try our best to keep it going. There is alot he didn't film and yes it is like that, there's so much more to our culture that you would have to have hours and days to learn about it. The dances are open to visitors but there is no filming. Glad to see many of the other tribes and non-native folks commenting on these videos, it's very heart warming to have your humble culture appreciated. very insightful too, because there is only so much I ever learned about the other tribes that I found in books or short videos, but this is very direct. Definitely looking forward to more!!!

I was then giving a once in a lifetime chance to spend a weekend there with my Grandparents and witnessed Ceremonies that maybe 100 people in the last 100 years outside of the tribe have. The summer after they took me Mesa verde, Chaco canyon and other spots and because of other friends she had I was actually allowed inside The Taos pueblo.

There are 574 tribes recognized federally, then you have state recognition and some tribes that are not recognized at all.

If you haven't read Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee I highly recommend it. This is what a highschool teacher handed me one day in class. It's a thick book. I have re read that book over 200 times. Not a single person had ever mentioned in school the torture of Tribes until that boom was handed to me. They are wiping out so much History within schools now, including the Holocaust. This is why my children are Homeschooled. My children will learn the truth, not what our Government wants them to believe.
Tiwa Native tapping in. Shout out to all our indigenous and Pacific relatives.
I love this channel!! Been on a binge catching up on videos!! Always the kindest people starting with the host Peter and the people he interviews!
So beautiful, and so much fun! Looking forward to catching your other videos... what a great thing to do to connect people in this way, it's so badly needed.
I’m fascinated with the Hopi. I appreciate the need for shielding their intimate cultural aspects and identities. Again, Peter, I appreciate YOU for taking us on this journey!
I thank you once again. At 83 years of age I am so happy to learn these truths about Native American tribes.

Thank you guys for such a wonderful experience on your nation. I’m a trucker that gets to drive through and sometimes I pick up loads on native lands throughout the west, and I always try to learn as much as I can about the people I’m visiting. These videos go so much deeper in understanding the cultures of the First Nations. I now live on the Flathead reservation in Montana but I came from Maryland and before then I came from Poland. I kept up my Polish traditions including performing the traditional dances from Poland, so seeing these videos how people keep their native traditions is awesome. As a kid I learned about cowboy and Indians. But the centralized schooling never taught me anything close to what I’m learning now in these videos. It is important for you Peter and all your hosts to continue to educate the world about the First Nations and their spirituality. Spread the love! I love the natives and their wisdom!

Wow, in 1985 I was standing in the Hopi village that you visited. It was truly one of the most incredible and special experiences I've ever had. The reason that I had the experience was I with an Anthropology class from Pasadena College visiting the Navajo and Hopi along with other sites including Canyon De Chelly. I had one experience that was very special. Watching you two walking out to the end of the mesa was surreal for me. I went out there alone and gazed over the land, while doing so I looked down over the cliff and noticed what looked like old structures, when I got back to the others I asked one of the elders what I was seeing at the bottom of the cliff. I was told that before the Navajo came the Hopi lived everywhere on the land, not just the mesas. So, yes!!! The Hopi were the original people of the land. One last thing I want to share is when I was there, outhouses use to overhang the cliff. Guess they are all gone now.
I’m watching from Ireland and I really appreciate the opportunity to get a glimpse into the life of Hopi tribe and to listen to Lehauli and his enthusiasm for his culture. The landscape is breathtaking and I can sense the history of the place. Thank you for sharing this with us. Love from Waterford Ireland ❤

Thank you Lehauli for inviting Peter and inviting us to Hopi. I am absolutely enamored by the love you have for the culture and for your people and to share it (within reason!). I definitely do not blame the Hopi for keeping many parts of your culture and your land secret, and I truly think thats such a smart and incredible way to preserve it while also preventing colonist perversion like you see with so many cultures. I'm so thankful to have found this video and gotten to learn about you as well as learn about the teachings you've been given by your elders. I know that the Navajo Nation was hit bad with COVID and now knowing you're inside that I can't even imagine the effect it had on your community. From what I've learned in the past about how little in reparations they get from the government and how little resources you're given on the reservation. I know healthcare services can be difficult to access especially in the region Hopi and Navajo are in. I'm so sorry for the loss you all faced but I really hope that with your passion and determination you are able to take the lead and be one of the torches to pass on the knowledge. I know crime is super difficult to deal with out on the reservations and the convoluted nonsense the settler government has with the tribes makes it worse. I hope felt for that gentleman at the store, especially because he didn't think it would really make a difference with cops. I always wondered how tribes managed inter-community violence pre-colonization and i hope a lot of communities can find a way to merge it with the more modern social norms, because everyone on the rez deserves to feel safe on their native land! Also thank you Peter! I've just stumbled upon your channel from your Whittier, AK video and as someone who has really wanted to become more knowledgeable about the Indigenous communities whose we live on I really am so thankful that you bring these first person experiences with people from the nations and tribes. I also really love that you are so respectful of ensuring you follow the boundaries about what you can film, and especially that tou ask for consent to be filmed (ESPECIALLY for children. People really need to start asking consent or even just blurring childrens faces out regardless. Kids cant really consent) You've definitely gotten a subscriber from me and I look forward to watching the rest of your travels.
I am Navajo/ Diné and have much respect because I am doing research on all of our tribes on Turtle Island. ❤ Much love & respect 🪶🪶🪶
I love the way you ask questions and listen to the people explain their culture in their own words. I am happy for them and for you showing us that they are maintaining their traditions, religion, and language. It must be a hard thing to do in today's environment of bigotry, economic stress, high prices, unwanted influences, and lack of opportunities. Diversity is the thing that makes life interesting and beautiful to me. You are showing how the people are doing that. You seem to have earned a lot of their trust and respect but at the same time you are genuinely interested in what they have to say. Despite the best efforts of the early "bahana", "beliganna", "Washishu", (sp?) to wipe them and their culture out, it did not completely happen. They endure. They are a resilient and very expressive people and deserve all the respect and love that those of us who are empathetic to their existence can bring. Thank you Pete for sharing this with us.

I grew up and still live in Arizona. 20 years ago I had a friend/coworker who was Navajo and had a daughter for the Hopi tribe. She explained to me how sacred and how closed off they are to the outside world and that because of their traditions she sent her daughter with her father once they were separated to allow her to grow up with the Hopi ways.
