Every culture, background, and society is unique and different. They each have their own sets of beliefs, values, and perspectives on the world. THAT is what worldview means!
As you can imagine, the Indigenous worldview is drastically different from what YOUR worldview might be. That is because Indigenous people have completely different histories, teachings, practices, beliefs, and values than the Western worldview.
There are a few key things to know and understand about Indigenous Worldview, so let’s talk through the basics.

All living things are connected. When I understood this, I realized there was an element missing before because I was understanding it to be nature out there and me in here - sure I watered the plants, walked the dog, put out the bird feeder, but those were jobs getting done moreso than "care and love" which is the "oneness" I have come to know. Of course there is more respect for all these things around us - noticing the little creatures more - like family if we are all connected under the Creator. Thankyou! Miigwetch!

Though I'm a Vietnamese person whose ancestors lived halfway across the Earth, the worldview of the American indigenous people is exactly how I see the world.

That's awesome, Bruce! We're happy to hear that!
I love that it is all about connecting with yourself.
Before when I didn't know my Indigenous culture or what it meant, I felt like I never understood a worldview, or even a religion because it didn't align with what my values were. This video makes me feel like I'm coming home, this aligns so much for me and it makes sense because a couple years ago I learnt my culture and my history!! I love that it was tied to me even when I didn't know it ❤

I'm in a similar position, but always knew vaguely about my indigenous heritage. Until over the last few years, I've actually learned what tribes, reservations, etc. that my family is from. I even discovered that there's residential school survivors who are still alive today! It's incredible what asking questions and a bit of research can provide! 💪

The Western worldview is much more individualized, independent and competitive continuously chasing inanimate items with material value. Humans are superior and above all other living and nonliving things. It's built on wealth, greed, competition, and doesn't care who or what may be hurt or destroyed in the process of achievement/advancement. Whereas the Indigenous worldview is more collective, inclusive, working together for the better of the community and all that makes up the community (animate and inanimate items). Humans are equals with plants, animals and nature. It is patient, caring, nurturing, unselfish. The Indigenous worldview is much more encompassing and intuitive. Just imagine what our planet might look like today had there not been Colonialism imposed on our lands and culture! No existence of the word "extinction"? A fine balance and harmony perhaps? No wars over resources, especially in other countries? 🤔🧐

I grew up with a blended world view. My dad was a Christian pastor in a northern Canadian community. Most of my friends and their family's growing up were Cree. I grew up hearing teachings about the Creator, while memorising bible, and praying to Jesus. It blended in a way because I found the churches I visited had teaching that I saw as contrary to what Creator would want and contrary to what Jesus would want. I saw them as two different entities, Creator was more powerful in my mind, while Jesus was a friend and an example of a truly good human who spoke against the religious elites. As I grew up, I don't know what I believe about the Christian God, not sure what I believe about Jesus. But I know I believe in Creator and love the worldview the teachings I grew up around brought me to eventually. I have a lot to learn, and I'm grateful for the teachers I have had in my region. Really glad to find your channel too.

Thank you for your teachings. I was raised with a western worldview but it never felt right. It is hard to unlearn some things but the older I get the easier it is. My favourite part of the indigenous world view is how all living beings are equal in value and connected. Love this❤️

Thank you for sharing this! All things are connected, and what indigenous people have always know is now proven through modern science. We need to change our education system and teach our children connectedness, to honor all animals and plants, and most importantly honor mother earth 🌎!

Wonderful Video. I think a lot of people share the connection between all living things that you describe as being an important part of the indigenous worldview. Western worldview seems to have been led by politicians and greed rather than the hearts of its citizens. Thanks for sharing. I feel a very positive worldview shift is in progress. :-)

At 72, my worldview is mostly informed by Indigenous cultures, especially (but not solely) the Lakota. But (we old ones have a lot of buts which maybe explains our need for bigger pants), I grew up Catholic with all that it entails. Mom's family was a poor, white, rural family. Their ancestry was primarily the UK. The Catholicism was tied to the Portuguese part of Dad's ancestry, inherited from his father and stepmother. Portuguese was their language spoken in the home. But (another but!), Dad's mother was born on the Sisseton-Wahpeton Sioux Reservation. They were estranged so I didn't learn about that until I was in my forties and she was gone. I mention all of that because even though my involvement with leftist politics, alternative communities, Quakers, and a Native American Circle all centered me on the worldview you discuss, I feel as if this worldview has always been at my core. I really don't know how to explain it. Except maybe it is somewhat organic to us human beings? That other ways seek to program it out of us? One more thing: have you read The Lakota Way by George M. Marshall III? I used it to teach and lead discussions in a Saturday morning class for the circle. Wawáste!

I'm very concerned with the relations we have to each other as living beings. I have always told people that humans are animals too. Acknowledging an indigenous worldview should be learned in school

All living things are connected is a scientifically proven fact. When you break things down to a chemical level, we are also connected to non living things like water, carbon and a whole host of elements that are present in the earth as well as our bodies. We even have elements from space. I believe that science is heading towards showing that the indigenous world view is an accurate depiction of a balanced life. Idealism of many social justice warriors line up with indigenous world views. (methodology and execution may be vastly different)
Also, it is important to distinguish between TEK and Indigenous worldview. TEK (Traditional Ecological Knowledge) or Place-based Knowledge, does "belong" to Indigenous Peoples (who still know their language, ceremonies and territory from generations of understanding. This is what can be misappropriated. It requires supporting efforts at Indigenous sovereignty. Indigenous worldview, however, belongs to all people indigenous to the earth. This is why it is important for all of us to work toward supporting First Nations sovereignty while doing our best to bring everyone aboard the only worldview that is based on Nature. See my new book, Restoring our Kinship Worldview: 28 Indigenous voices......
First, straight up accolades: you are an amazing teacher. I wonder if you actually teach at a school (K-12 or higher education).
