Lived History - the Story of the Wind River Virtual Museum
Over the years, pipes, cradle boards, parfleches, and other ancestral artifacts from the Wind River Reservation in Wyoming have accumulated in museums, far from their place of origin. 'LIVED HISTORY' documents the creation of a high definition video 'virtual museum' of ancestral artifacts, currently stored in museum collections, for the Eastern Shoshone and Northern Arapaho tribes. Visit the museum at www.windrivervm.org/

WHY say that now how many of the item.s did you save? Great that museum.s kept them or they would have been gone.. too. i.m an elder ...
Bring the artifacts back to were they belong,!,
That doesn’t belong in a dead vault It belongs to these living people who are proud of their culture
This is very emotional because its a reminder of what our people lost. These items belonged to someone and are very sacred. How they got these items just breaks my heart because of how much disregard they had for us back in history.
Oh my... good to see Raphael, and Maggie!!!
Thank you.

THE ROCKS ARE AND WILL CRY OUT.
Great job awesome history makes you understand why the smart suvive
they belong to the true people
great history
IMO i think everything should be shown even if they are sacred that is the only way people will learn and things will not be lost. Take advantage of technology
like the excavation sight they started by the boarding school in canada they dug up native childrens bones, its hard to fathom what our ancestors went through. On the bright side it encourages me to teach my family the truth and carry on what little that i do know and look deeper into our side of the story. How we lived before all this happened

PLEASE CONTINUE TO D0 YOUR RESEARCH. PEACE. GOD BLESS.
During the 50s and 60s my grandparents gave museums family baskets and weaving materials.....I wish the family could have a museum to put this in.....our native word for dry met is “sletcus”. Spell check? Oh well......hey.....
And not all pipes were considered sacred. The ones that were short were not considered sacred they were just for pleasure. The long ones that they called “peace pipes” were considered sacred and used in ceremonies.

It's funny because "peace pipe" is the European term for the ceremonial pipe
are any of these items from the kids that had to go to boarding schools? what did they do with the traditional clothing and items they wore while arriving at the boarding schools?

The provenance of many of these items is unknown. But we don't believe any came from boarding school children. Many of the children were dressed in "modern" clothing for the trip. To the best of our knowledge, any traditional regalia were destroyed by the boarding schools. PBS will air a documentary in January 2022 about three Northern Arapaho children who were sent to Carlisle school in Pennsylvania.
My ppl that kept away from me.
I can't seem to share this to Facebook, that's a shame as I have a friend who is Native - American and I would like her to see this. Too much Google greed or is it for some other reason?

This is NOT RIGHT ...it belongs to them give it back ! ... I think my wife and I are going to get as many opinions as we can about this ...that should be a good place to start....I don't think that enough people know about this....it's disgusting and we want to fight it.
It isnt good to film people walking in the street fronting you at home. I have to stop the interest in this documentary.
