I am Wolastoqeyik. And I grew up being called Maliseet. I only learned our true name when I was an adult. That is one prime example of what happens with colonization. So much is erased. We are reclaiming our space now.

As a Malécite this was shocking when I saw this documentary focusing on our communities.

Thank you all 😊

Love this series ! compliments my readings and conversations with native folk to learn their histories

Pride and prejudice; mud, blood and iron, the contention between indigenous aspirations and aggressive expationists - the contention between self determination and imperialism. The stains of "devouring and dehumanizing" amongst peoples in the pages of history. Viva First Nation! Viva Freedom and Justice! Viva Negritude Banner!

This Documentary is one oft he best and compelling ones, timeline has released. The narration is the authentic voice of our native population in Canada.

Greetings to one and all. Here we are once again. Share and subscribe and oh yes don’t forget to hit the like button !

I am born and raised in downeast Maine and currently live there now. I don't blame Native Americans for their anger towards us as this country's land beauty here is phenomenal. And I agree that there has been irreparable damage to this land. Yes, there should be more recognition of Native Americans (and other ethnic groups) in the history of North America, both US and Canada. But the one thing that we all need to stop is the blaming of who did who wrong. At this stage of history, it doesn't matter. I am no more responsible for what my ancestors may or may not have done as living Native Americans (and other ethnicgroups) have the responsibility of what their ancestors may or may not have done. Stereotypes on all sides need to stop. This is the only way to achieve peace between all ethnicities.

The first settlers weren't the ones that brought war... It was the subsequent ones that push their way in. The first group was open to trade and friendship.

I'm enjoying watching, although all this would never affect us as we were in the Baltic states and more concerned with the Russians and staying alive as farmers. [ Lithuania ]

Where and when was this written and translated?

The walustiquik and the walustik river are 2 separate rivers. St.John river today is the Walustiquik It also is currently the border between Maine and Canada. But the Walustik was a waterway inside currently State of Maine inlands. Goes through Limestone Caribou Fort Fairfield Prequel Isle and the whole allagash in Aroostook County. This other river is called Aroostook River today. We the people called her walustik or beautiful river also. Not to contradict this very important history (Aroostook county natives often referred to ourselves as Acadians in fear about our children realizing they are an Indian Metis or mixed and being discriminated against by people.)

Though both were Calvinists - the Pilgrams settled 1st in New England. And though in spite of their ignorant actions. The generosity of the local Natives saved "the Pilgrams". The Puritans arrived later; under the auspicious of the Massachusetts Bay Company. Their John Winthrop, thanked the Natives, by hunting them down; including killing "King Phillip", the Son of the Man that saved the Pilgrams. Of course, Puritans also persecuted their own i.e. "the Salem Witch Trials" btw - the actual site of the Trials, is not in today's Salem. But in an adjacent town - Danvers (Danvers was also the site picked by Benedict Arnold, to organize & prepare for what was to become, the failed American Invasion of Canada.)

​@Sarah Hodgins yep, both were Calvinist sects. But history tells me the Puritans (who essentially usurped what power the Pilgrams once had) were the most cruel & blood thirsty of the two.

Danvers was actually Salem Village where most of the Witch Trial accusers lived. I am descended from 3 of the murdered victims and a descendant of a juror. What was going on with the witch trials is that there was personal, political and religious strife in the area. Then the accusers started acting out, which gave people a chance to point fingers at those who were deemed the cause of the misfortune in the area.

Using the term "Allies" when talking about Britain or America to Native peoples during this time is laughable as they had no honour just greed and racism and would ignore treaties when it suited just like today so nothing much changes.

First 🥇

The God of Israel chose this land as a beacon for His Word to be spread throughout the earth. America is a covenant nation, as Israel is, and America falls into the trajectory of ancient Israel. If you want to hear the truth about America, read Jonathan Cahn’s books. The Harbinger is the eye opener. Native Canada is part of my ancestry, the Métis. It doesn’t matter what ‘people’s’ or tribes we come from. What matters is we hear God’s voice, and follow it. 🕊

Yes. There is a greater story unfolding across the centuries and the continents, and even now -- Many natives, like St. Katari herself, spiritually perceived Jesus and accepted Him. -- Surely they learned that some of the immigrants were genuinely good (even if a bit silly in their habits), and others were self-serving, just as their own people had both kinds. The harm done came not so much from the badness of the immigrants, but more from the power of their iron weapons and tools, their writing, and their sheer numbers. And no doubt from their narrow-minded cultural attitudes. And their diseases.
