- The Apache are an incredible people that I have researched and made videos on throughout the course of the year. This is a compilation of each of the nine videos I have published on this channel about them, their conflicts, and their culture.
I have incredible respect for them as a people and hope that my research and story telling has done them justice. I am well aware that my pronunciations have not... but I am working on it.

"If you were within 400 miles of the Comanche, you were in danger." What a statement.
Consider this, from Palo Duro Canyon (near Amarillo, Tx) to Victoria, Tx it's right around 600 miles.
That's the distance Buffalo Hump and his merry band of warriors traveled in 1840 when they raided all the way to Linville and Victoria from Palo Duro Canyon where the Comanches usually set up their winter camp and it was kind of like a home base to them from what I've read and heard.
I dont know how familiar you are with the geography of Texas, but that raid traveled through some of the roughest country in Texas.
If they took a more Easterly route, it would have taken them through the Texas Hill Country with about 6 rivers (that's my guess, it could have been more or less) to cross.
If they took a more Westerly route, then having enough water and grass for their horses could have been a big problem.
So I'm thinking "400 miles" is a very conservative estimate based on that.
And in a time before cars...
I don’t know how I missed this fantastic presentation of the Apache. Their culture and beliefs have been appropriated and distorted; rarely are the commonly told stories based on actual Apache accounts of events, we don’t know the views of the Apache who participated, and of course Hollywood and Newspapers have their own motives for telling it their way. I found this series of vignettess so interesting and well presented that I watched it twice and bookmarked it. Extremely well researched and remarkably neutrally told, great watch thank you so much for telling us the stories of these elusive, misunderstood Peoples, I have seldom enjoyed any storyteller so compelling.
You are a great story-teller, and present a more balanced picture of both sides than one usually gets. After watching old TV shows like "Gunsmoke" and "Rawhide," one of the common plots was a woman alone on the frontier, imperiled by an Indian presence looming on the periphery, and basically how dangerous that situation could be. After watching enough of these shows, I realized that there was still a lingering, deep fear of Native Americans within the American psyche as late as the 1950s---in contrast to the prevailing feeling of the era in which I grew up ('70s and '80s): by then, history had been somewhat revised: Curious, I looked around the Internet to find first-person narratives from pioneers in which they described their encounters with Native Americans. I found these on the U. of Kansas website--they mirror what you describe viz. the Comanches,, Apaches, and their hardcore ways. Anyway, thanks for your hard work If you don't teach history, you should.
My cousin married a full blooded Apache woman. A very beautiful person with much grace. My nephew married a legal immigrant woman from Mexico. She has just passed the citizenship tests to become a citizen. Both families have children. They don't call our nation a melting pot without reason. I just know what I see. Glad to understand the importance of History. I hope that we can all get along and learn from the past. Write a new history for the future . God's grace be with you all.
I wanna hear some more!
I thoroughly enjoy the Texas and other Western history stories that you tell. I’m 5th generation Texan from at least 2 grandparents and love learning more about the history of Texas and the American West in general. I would love to hear more about the “Bronco Apaches” living in the Sierra Madres up until the 1930’s to 1950’s. Regarding that, my ex-wife’s grandmother was supposedly a full blood Apache, born and raised in “The Valley” of South Texas, which is a general term for most of the area South of San Antonio and South of Corpus Christi. She never learned English despite living in Texas her entire life and in Houston for the last 20-30 years. She lived to be 81 (edit:She was born around 1913 because she died in 1994, so she could have been part of the bronco apaches. To the best of my knowledge, she only spoke Spanish and never lived on a reservation, but she could have spoken Apache but didn’t let us or her children know, her husband was half Mexican and half German.) and when we went to visit her, my ex-wife’s mother and her aunt would have to translate because my rx-wife didn’t speak Spanish. My mother-in-law was born in the valley as well but learned English when she started school at 6 years old. McAllen, Tx. is basically a bilingual town and is right across the border from Reynosa, Mexico. Brownsville, Tx. (Hometown of the great singer-songwriter Kris Kristofferson) is butted up to the border by Matamoros, Mexico, Eagle Pass is farther to the West and right next to Nuevo Laredo, Mexico and the furtherest Western city in Texas is El Paso and just across the border is Juarez or “Ciudad Juarez” which has many times been the murder capital of the world. If you go through El Paso at night on I-10, you can see lights for many miles across the Rio Grande in Juarez, even though a lot of people are living in shantytown type housing.
Just discovered your channel, I've read Empire of the summer moon.....superb stuff.
You should get the book the war of thousands desert it s a great book of the native battels and stuff 👍🏻
This was an awesome way to spend a few hours thank you
Dude love this channel! Yes, to anymore stories you have on the Apache.
What a heartbreaking saga makes me despise politicians even more. The times these people were forced to relocate brutal. Then, their children were taken (for their own good, I'm sure the parents were told) only to die of disease was criminal at best . I pray that the Apache souls found peace
Now the white politicians are turning on their own people.
Great stories 🎯 thanks
Thank you just subscribed. My wife descendant of Eastern Cherokee that never surrendered. Retreated to deep smoky mountains. Now wealthiest tribe in US.
Have watched all of these multiple times already, don’t care downloading now for my trip home later!! Easily a favorite channel of mine right now. Awesome work.
I never knew any of this stuff . I find it very interesting. Well done 👍🏼 on the videos. Great old pictures as well.
Excellent storytelling
My great great grandmother lived through all this she was Navajo n lipan apache went into Mexico but nobody knows what happend after, its vids like this that I get to put pieces of my family puzzle together a few clues at a time, thanks for your hard work
I feel the same way. I don't have to much family history for my mother because so many passed away young. But my great grandfather was Apache from Northern Arizona. These videos have helped me as well piece family history together.
Stories like that are hard to hear. I am so sorry that your great-great-grandmother disappeared like that.
Don't you find it bizarre that Native women are still disappearing to this day and yet the mainstream media continues to completely ignore telling the stories of these women?
Being Cherokee, a matrilineal Tribe, I was raised to believe that women and children are SACRED. They are treasured because they are the future of every Tribe.
Blessings to you and yours on this Veteran's Day. That makes me remember that we Native people are the minority who serve in the US military more often, per capita, than any other. Being a combat veteran myself, I am so proud of the warriors, both women and men, who serve in the military. Despite the pathetic manner we Native People are treated here, we will still serve this country faithfully in war.
We are WARRIORS, all of us, to have endured the attempts to eradicate us, to destroy our languages and cultures, requires a strength the average person is unfamiliar with.
Wado, which is Cherokee for thank you, for sharing a bit of your family's history.
Pride and resonance. Love your family's life and you'll understand your own.
I'm from Maine, and my ancestors were named O'Greene. Don't compromise anything as I'm sure you dont
Suuuuurrrrreeeeeee,

Que observação completamente inútil. Qual era o objetivo?
Se você pretendia provar sua ignorância, muito bem. Missão cumprida!
Enjoying these fascinating tales; please keep them coming.
Jeppy,rockn rolly!👍🦅🐎🪶😘
The best videos I watched on the subject.
Thank you for all the hard work you put into these.
I absolutely love your videos please keep doing what you do man. Way to keep history alive thank you!
My buddie in Malibu sent me this. Now I’m sending it to my friends here in Ecuador 🎉
I absolutely love your channel and appreciate the time and effort you put into each and every history lesson you give us.
Thank you
The War Of Extermination. Man, that's a title for sure. Thanks for the great info on the native tribes, I've learned a lot here. THX
You sure got a way with words. I think you also got a damn fine mind and a great sense of humor. Course Im an old man and youngens think we know nothin so take for what its worth. But I sure do like your stories. You got a gift son.
You put together a great Apache series, thanks for all the work and your time you put into the series. Great work. Thank you.
one of favorite channels..just true depictions..well read..greatly narrated..and the editing must have been tough, but greatly appreciated...Hermans story would make a great movie..and i did get that joke..thx professor..
Thank you for the sincere and respectful nature of your delivery.... please continue to wake us up.... everything we have been taught is a lie.
This presentation is more entertaining than anything Hollywood could ever conceive. Keep em’ coming! Bravo🎉
Came across you a few days ago. You are one hell of a great historical story teller.
Great work sir. And very good of you to launch a complete film . Thank you .
This was fantastic. Thanks for your work
I feel as though among the many atrocities that european settlers and spanish commited against the native tribes all across the America's, none is more greater than destroying their culture and history. We are lucky to have the information we do. I have learned more from your videos than I was ever taught in school. I have always longed to know more of the natives. The amount of knowledge lost with the decimation of entire various tribes is heartbreaking. Thank you for your research as I have thoroughly enjoyed learning more about these people that deserved so much more, and still do.
Yawn
@@rickybolio
Go to bed.
I always wondered who was the most violent and ruthless of natives the Apaches, Comanches, Iroquois, or Caribs
That is not how it happened the Indians attacked and slaughtered and murdered and tried to destroy our way of life what you're saying is exactly opposite they started the wars they wanted to fight and they wouldn't leave they were 100% to blame because their culture was a culture of death if they weren't fighting settlers long before the United States they were fighting themselves not one Indian colony had a word for peace. They did not understand the concept of not slaughtering the tribe next door
@@Daron7181I wouldn't want to be caught by any of them! Third little 6 year old children could kill us easy on they're land
Absolutely one of the best nanarrator's that I have ever listened to... Thank You
This sir, is a super nice thing to say. Thank you.
This is excellent material. Balanced, intresting, well-presented and inormative. I appreciate your work. Thank you.
Oh man! Bookmarked this. I'll be busy later.
Thank you!
For the narrator the Coyotero Apache were the ones who kidnapped the young boy that Cochise was blamed for not the White MTN Apache
This is great!! I hope yo do a series on the Comanche!!
That might be coming next
@@datesanddeadguys Yes!!!
There was a legend saying that Geronimo's remains was at the Skull and Bones at Yale University.. So it got me thinking.. If Magnas Coloradas' skull was sent to N.Y.C. to be examined and then disappears never to be seen again... I wonder if it's at the S & B's as well?!?!!!
Just found this channel. I am having a blast learning all about our not so long ago history! So we shall see whatcha got for me today!! 😊
9:39 That far in and I am very impressed!! Thanks for the research and presentation. It’s is very very educational. Great job!
Love your channel and how you extrapolate western history…..thank you from a retired Army Ranger, very interested in history of all human conflict. Job well done Sir.
great channel..Well presented; thanks for filling in all this history. Cheers from Vancouver.
This man is really good at bringing a story to you ! He's very talented 👍 plus he knows his stuff !
outstanding content, sir!
Your channel is addicting. The Apache were great warriors. All the tribes were. It was a numbers problem. I love learning about history. And you are a great teacher. Thank you Dates and Deadguys!
My stepfather was White Mountain Apache and had a great collection of stories. While he and I were antagonistic to each other often. My Cherokee blood would get annoyed with things my stepfather said about us.
I thoroughly enjoyed this series.
Many thanks!
No he was not
This was a great story. remarkable. This storyteller really brought all this to life. Excellent. Thanks
This is my thing.
Definitely worth a sub.
Please keep up the good work.
Your doing an awesome job with these stories. Keep them coming.
This is an excellent work of investigation, thx for your dedication
Love these stories keep up the good work thank you for your time and effort 👍
What a great series on the Apache! Thanks & look forward to all your shows.
You have a wonderful talent for telling these stories , keep up the good work regards..
CZcamss's hidden gem. Well done sir.
I had HEARD that the LAST battle between Indians and Whites/Soldiers was in 1924. After watching your videos I learned SO MUCH MORE! I want to THANK YOU! SHARED AND SUBSCRIBED!❤
great story telling!
Your the man, appreciate this edit. I would love you to do a series on ancient Eurasia barbarian tribes. You mentioned the Scythians in the video on the amazons and when looking into them I had trouble with the other narrators keeping the lofty information entertaining. The intensity you bring really separates your channel, a real gem, thank you so much.
Yes I cannot say enough good about this channel I really like the history of different times,people, places and things💯
Next Saturday I’m releasing a bit of a mashup. I’m comparing the mongols to the Comanche.
@@datesanddeadguys Constructive criticism: lose the background noise!
The subject & your narration of it is great. The addition of distracting, monotonous & annoying music ruined the vid for me.
@savage22bolt32 That could be the move.
@@datesanddeadguys honestly, I wish you no bad vibes.
Some "experts" say to add the music.
If I was in a lecture hall, trying to learn something, I want to focus my attention on the source of the information. You are that source.
❤
This has become one of my new favorite channels on here. It makes me realize how little I was taught about the Native American peoples.
Dagote, I got my coffee ready let's do this AHO✊🏽
This is excellent! I wanna hear it all!
Awesome, thrilling stories!
This has been a great series very informative definitely worth showing to friends.Great job Dates and Dead Guys.
This channel is amazing, i love learning about my fellow Amerindians.
Greetings from a mestizo Diaguita from Chile living in Australia!
Galvarino, Colo Colo , Leftraru(Lautaro), Caupolicán, some of the Auracania warriors(Mapuche) from Southern Chile, if you havent heard of them or know of them, they all have amazing stories , they (Mapuche) were the only ones who resisted Spanish invasion succesfully for 350 years...
Great stories.
Thank you For This Brilliant Interesting Video I Am New To Your channel But Find It Great Thank You From Blue Who Was Born a Lives In England
Excellent!
I have Lipan heritage, also Choctaw French and Milian. My closest ancestors are east Texas and Louisiana. This video helped me understand a few of the old stories. I was told the Comanche got strong by stealing the horse spirit and drinking the blood of our elders, so symbolically I guess they did.
Really like the longer videos 👍
I like this technique of adding definitions . I get the benefit of learning new words passively while listening to these historical stories
Jacarilla is pronounced Hickarreya i believe. Great show though.I really enjoy watching all your programs!
Herman s braveheart shows us all of far you go to wanna live im sure 99% and given up at least now a Days crazy story but i loved it 🙏🏻💯 Thanks
I live in Central Texas, there are arrow heads everywhere. Also have many old camps close to where I live. Tonkawa, Apache, Comanche, Waco indians, and a few other.
More! More! Great job, thank you!
I love the power/witchcraft episode. I think the reason why the chief and the medicine man would persecute witches, was for their lack of control over them, similar to european kings and popes, that worked together hand in hand. It would be impossible to rule over a tribe, if single tribesmen would tap into their own power and become errants. They needed to be exiled for the danger of affecting others. Very same thing is happening today when people get labeled and canceled. Great job. Thank you for your work.
yes and no. theyre just considered evil, since well, they are. the one victim bothered innocent people for hurting the one guilty. all by using death as an excuse.
I dont get what you mean, sry.
loving your videos dude!
great stories. This is our family. You did a great job in telling the stories and giving some perspectives. I was told many of these stories from the perspective of Apache people instead of American and Mexican media.
You did a great job on the series. Hats off to you my freind.
This iis an eye-opening video!
Much respect bro 🔥 I just found this channel and I enjoy the content. The game is dirty but the position you seem to be in now is more powerful. Keep the videos coming bro👊💪💯
My first time watching one of your videos. Fantastic tales!
Greetings from California, I, of the Apache say thank you for all you do. Go in peace.
Enjoyed this
There is strong evidence that the wild Apache were still alive in the Sierra Madre mtns in the 1990s
The last Apache raid I know of was in the 1940s.
I do hope there are Apaches living free in those mountains today.
Do you happen to know where u learned about that id like to read the source material
I have partied with them. They are alive and well.
Source?
I saw that movie
Amazing!
THANKS AGAIN Great detailed told ever well.
I'll listen to all of the stories that you have to tell. Great channel telling a history that does not often get told anywhere but in the West and Southwest.
Excellent video. Really loved it. I can think of several other examples of the magic powers attributed to the people in the chapter on Apache magic. The rain dance is particularly well documented. Remote viewing reminds me of the woman who could sense the enemy following them. that quote at the end of the chapter is the best explanation. These abilities are the birthright of every human. All you need is faith. Doesn't matter what name you use for God, what matters is that you believe. That analogy of their God, Usin, speaking to them as easily as using a telephone, is a common occurrence among people with strong intuition. Hearing a voice warning them of danger just in time to avoid it. I believe we can start to re learn these abilities by changing our beliefs about what humans are capable of. I have been able to instantly heal myself of some pretty serious injuries over the last few years. I eventually turned to energy healing after breaking my back 15 years ago. It has changed my life. Embracing forgiveness and trying to live a life of gratitude and love for all life has seriously helped me in every aspect of my life. Sorry for rambling on, I slipped and fell on a rock earlier so I'm all jazzed up from removing that pain from my spine. If anyone wants some resources to learn more about energy healing just reply to my message. Blessings of love, joy and prosperity to you all.
HOKC is another Great Texas History channel!
Love your Apache stories! 1:43:45
Excellent kind sir, subscribed.
Love these story's.
The creeks and Seminoles are my blood line. But I share love with all of the tribes.
Write down, rcorde or both, all the stories you can! I can't impress upon you strongly enough how valuable these stories are! As the old ones, elders die, the stories of events, their families are lost. Your culture, history belongs to us too!
The Comanche were the largest supplier of horses and mules. Some making it to Saint Louis by way of trade with other tribes. Probably the most interesting thing is they are originally Shoshone and both are related closely to the Utes and are originally from the Great Basin area. The Shoshone are divided into different groups but cover from Mexico to Canada. Not sure any other tribe has that distinction, although the Apache and Navajo are from the north they migrated south much like the Kickapoo.
really great content big ups
I very much enjoy your videos. Thank you.
So I'm about half way through Herman's story and daaaaaaamn what a little bad ass🤘🤘
Man I like your knowledge
Thank you for APACHE videos ! ESPECIALLY BRONCOS.......
great video's
It's a shame what happened to the native Americans this is well put together thanks
You do a great job on telling the Indian history .
Very interesting series. Im from Alaska and the deep bush of the Mentasta Mountain range. Born on Kodiac Island Lived among and around indians of several tribes n now at 80 Im in the NE mountains of Washington State. There are more tribes in this state than any other. Lotta years in several states around the people. The ones in Alaska are still for real. In the lower 48 they are just modern day res residents and have no tradition. They have Casinos and are just consumers. Im an old busted up bush ratt. Live off grid but miss the bush.The history of mankind is ugly. Great historic essay. Dandahermit
