      There were still hate back in those days, but people were more tolerant of each other. Racism was still flying high. But I will stay in the music arena people got along. I was born in 71. Anne was adopted by white hippie family and I'm black female. So I saw both sides. Oh, and I can't tell you how often I was one if not very few Black people at a lot of concerts. I didn't care nobody else did either for the most part. But I'm a rare breed as well as my family and I have a sister who's Cherokee Indian and brother who is also black and my parents had three children of their own and 37 foster kids so I grew up in a huge melting pot of people of all different cultures, and still do. We all get along and love each other so seeing other people that don't get along I find very strange.... And always have and had to learn at a very early age that it's pure ignorance.

      Forgive me for saying Native American. My fathers family is from Oklahoma and my Grandmother's relatives came to Dallas for her funeral. My mother was into doing family trees so they brought some info from Grandmothers side. We have Indian ties in OK. Explained her black hair and easy to tan complexion and she didn't go grey til her 80s. Hard to trace though. In my Grandmother's time and before you didn't admit your Indian heritage if you were living or married in the white world. It was passed down verbally thru family and letters which they brought with them. I was very excited about the connection. Wish I knew more but anymore info died with my ancestor. It just wasn't talked about due to discrimination. We were told lost Catawba tribe, but my mother was unable to follow it further. Of course we did not have DNA then, and my mom passed away in 1994. Didn't have Ancestry DNA testing you had to request records the hard way. Lol. My older sister has taken up the mantle.

Many tribes call themselves Indians to this very day. Does that make them racists or bigots? Of course not! It is the meaning, negative or positive, an individual person pours into any term. If it is spoken with contempt it is wrong but if it is spoken in a neutral or positive fashion then who cares? This whole First Nations business has never clicked with me and I was around when it was first coined back in the 1970s by the know-it-alls in Toronto, the centre of the known universe. So I see how it is used by the woke and the PC and they are just divisive people looking to get an advantage over other people with their hip terminology.

    Really and truly, back in the day (60's & 70's), young people were more together than ever because of the music ...so we just loved everyone for who they were and went from there.....
    There are always problems, but the music made everything and everyone the same.....just grooving to the music, period.

    I got pulled over on the I-10 freeway many years ago. Got my first ticket ever. I was crying like a doek, and pulled into a rando neighborhood. I was on the phone with my sister. Still crying. The lead singer and his grandson heard me, and came out of their house to ask if i was okay? He invited me and my daughter into his house. I was a little surprised, because I recognized him. He had a complete studio in his house. He made me a cd of come and get your love. It was a trip.

      I'm an older Gen X and so is my brother-in-law. He had the same stunned/thunderstruck look on his face, when I showed the video to him. My BIL totally knew the song, and lovec it, but no idea they were Native Americans. What made it so very funny, is that my BIL is a full blood Navajo. He liked the song before, but now he thinks it's awesome.

    My husband died in February of 2021. During his last year of his life he knew he was winding down to his end. He ran back across this song and we listened to it a lot in that last year. So this one has a very recent reason for being special to me. Thanks BP. I truly appreciate it. I figured that you would get a kick out of the native tradition that they bring to their performances. I’m white as a snowflake but there’s three different strains of Indian blood running around in my veins and if I could I would get up and dance with him.

    Actually you want an interesting rabbit hole: check out the story of Buffy Saint Marie. She is an Italian American who got famous as a singer in the 60’s and has been pretending the whole time to be Native American!!! My Mom adored her all these decades. It’s recently been exposed. So crazy.

    Love Redbone! They only had a few tunes that got played on radio, but they were kick-ass!
    On one of your future reactions, consider listening to the amazing Country/Southern Rock group called Alabama. In particular the song "Feels so Right". I had never heard of them until I walked into a record store and heard this playing on the store speakers. I went to the counter and asked the guy who the band was playing over the speakers and he told me it was Alabama, a new group. I found the album and walked out after buying it so I could get home and listen to the whole thing. I was blown away and became an immediate fan. They went on to blow up the Country/Southern Rock genre for easily 10+ years. I think you'll enjoy Feels so Right! Give 'em a listen and enjoy!

    The brothers that formed Redbone, not only wrote their own music, they spent hours in the studio writing and producing the frequency and sound waves to each of their songs so the people who heard their music enjoyed the song, music and related to their music. I miss that kind of music.

  • @sandyleewhite
    @sandyleewhite Před 18 dny +1

    Yes Redbone was Native American, & the Dance is called the "Fancy Dance", Pan-Indian dancing, Fancy Feather or Fancy War Dance is a style of dance some believe was originally created by members of the Ponca tribe in the 1920s and 1930s, in an attempt to preserve their culture and religion. It is loosely based on the War dance. Please react to more, they have many hits out there!!!

    As a gal that's 75% native American - i wished my family raised me the way i should've been. They decided to raise me as an American so i would have more chances in the American world. They taught me nothing about my real heritage and sadly now they're both gone. My aunt's that are still alive talk to me about little things. I enjoy these discussions.
    And i love watching them dance on CZcams. That's how i feel i should have been raised

      My mother and her 2 sisters were taken from their rez and put in an Indian government school till they graduated. They were taught to hate and reject their native heritage and so their children never got the tribal education either. In fact we really didn't know of our heritage until we were all adults. Sault Sainte Marie, MI is where our rez is located and even not knowing, going there, we always had a sense of being home. My siblings all had that same feeling.

      My great aunt and grandma spoke little of the school they were forced to go to. The spanish catholics abused the children and cut their hair. So I wasn't really taught to appreciate my native side. But after finding out how much I have in both sides. I am even more proud. Also, my family all saw Pat and Lolly. They called each other cousins. So it always brings happiness to have met Pat at a casino they were playing. When they came up to my mom and aunts I felt dumb for not believing them. 😂 It will always be a great memory that night❤

    We have gone backwards in the US. In the 1970's when I was in high school, which had a variety of people, most of us really didn't notice color. We were all on our way to more equality and suddenly it reversed into multiple types of racism and making it a bigger thing now then I remember in past years.
