I think this information should be shared in high schools. Many many people are kept in the dark about such things regarding Native peoples.
i'm sharing it with my students this morning!
Yeah like when my son was in public school and came home with happy little paper “Indians” colonialists and paper turkeys! There was a reservation only a few hrs from the school but these children only had this image of Indigenous people. Then he came home with over glorified Edison stories(like he saved us from the darkness) NO mention of Lewis Latimer who created the filament after NONE of Edison’s bought scientists could figure out how to keep it on...I mean I could just go on and on.. I’m Vt Abenaki Scottish and refuse to have my child programmed like this(he’s homeschooled now for many reasons). We must demand public school reform!
@@lizf3325 Tesla ring a bell???? Lol!!
@@melaniemurray6539 and while you're at it, share the anecdotes surrounding Muhammad's mercy.
And if the NA keep removing anything Indian from names and places, pretty soon no one not NA will even know that we exist.
Thank you for addressing the removal of children from Native American culture. That happened to my great-grandmother, and that is what I am fighting to return to now.
My maternal great grandmother was. Abenaki from Vermont- married a Scottsman -McCollough

I hope that your return to your Native culture is going well. I’m so glad to hear that you are driven to that. It is so important. Much love!
What about the indians stealing and kidnapping white children?
I'm proud to be Penobscot. I wish I was taught more about my history when I was young. Thank you for this information.
Thank you for sharing..i needs to hear some positive information about MAINE PASSAMAQUODDY HERE!
That language makes my body feel calm and relaxed and mind positive, it sounds like gentle waves crashing against rugged coasts.
Maybe it's just you still love that language though
Do not romanticize Indigenous culture. You are engaging in the Dominant Gaze which is a form of othering. You may think it's positive but it is not. It's dysfunctional.
Your Spirit is beautiful Brother. Woliwon for your voice
What a beautiful soul and his dreamy eyes throughout his life experience is like listening to historical journeys teacher 💖🙌🏼
Are you serious? You are objectifying someone who is as human and flawed as any of us.
I am looking so forward to taking his classes. To be honest I had no idea of the Native American studies at UMO. Now I am seriously considering it for my minor.
1skydvejam I would love to see him again thank u brother from ur. Sister from big cove
I can tell he is a very gentle soul.
How wonderful this huMAN is a teacher! The gentle strength of his spirit reflected in the sound of his voice and words pointing us back to being truly human once again. What a gift this showed up to me to take in on the first day of 2024. We are all (related) in this together. Let's make it beautiful!
Such a great teacher. So grateful to you for sharing your knowledge.
Thank you my brother. Your words are moving all peoples into a greater union with love,..kindness and understanding. Thank you so much for all your incredible information ℹ️ and your prayers for all of us. I’m honored to have heard you and your heart ❤️. Thank you my friend. Om mani padme hum 🌎🙏🌎🙏🌎🙏🌎🙏🌎
Appreciate the perspective, I want to note, the Sunstone referenced at 5:21 is Mayan informed but is Mexica, 1 of 3 cultural groups in the area known today as Mexico city. gkisedtanamoogk's wonderful way of being helps elaborate on the context that draws a chuckle from the audience. And for clarity, that stone was carved by my ancestors who are Mexica. We too still hold our language, and work within the devastation of first contact with the Spaniards, as his ancestors work through the devastation of the pilgrim's and their colonial practices...
his voice is very soothing ;o;
He apparently has Steven Seagal to thank for his language training.
You are one my greatest teachers! Thank you for sharing your spirit my friend!
He has a great message, Much respect brother!
He came to a Sociology class I was in. Loved hearing about his Wampanoag origin and time in New Brunswick at Burnt Church. (Name translates to Snowy Owl)
@Lost pelican gkisedtanamoogk (pronunciation: gis see TAN eh mook)
Metis,Abenaki,Mikmaq,Huron ,Algonquin, and french living native way since 1984,we are all related,reaching out to all my relatives. Taho molsem howling
I loved this talk. He is so calm. I hope that everything is going well. I think they are definitely on the right path 💖
I am so proud to be Maine Abenaki.
@Morganlefay it is! The Abenaki speak an Algonquin language. 💜
you know I am 0.0001% Abenaki myself
Miigwich Elder! Aniin Sabé, I am Bigfoot/Sasquatch, Anishinnabe, Migizii Dodem, 🦅 Eagle Clan, White Earth Nation, Minnesota Chippewa Tribe. May, Gitche Manidoo, bless you always and forever and you follow the path of love, kindness, and friendship. Sharing your knowledge and wisdom with us. MIIGWICH! ✌🏽❤️😁
Maine is a beautiful state. I lived there off and on over the years. I live in Emmett Idaho. I'm originally from Williston ND. I'm Anishinnabe, Cree, French, and Norwegian from my dad's side. Thank you so very much for your TedX Talk! ❤️
I am of the Wabanaki people on one side of the family, Irish & Blackfoot on the other. This information ought to be shared to schools in America, most don't know of what is being lost.
Wow- I am not from Maine… Maine is from me💚💙💜
I get the same sense that a new era has started. Happy to be learning about the Penobscot.
Yet to be about Love, like your people desire; as do I, you must not play any blame games. Forgiveness is a tenet of love.
I had a friend of mine take me fishing, he was asking me. I wasn't unappreciative, I was watching the Deer & the Birds. I was smelling the water the Earth. I was in pain but I was @ one with the Creator. Only take what you need & put back what you take, for further generations... 🤔
Loved the way this was put together!
I used to walk on the main road it was this South Land Cemetary, I missed that tree. We used to harvest the nut's. She would make the most amazing treats...
I have much learn from this. Thank you very much! 🏹🦅☀️💯
My 5th great grandmother was Penobscot and married a white man after the revolutionary war, and my family lost all ties to the tribe at that point. It makes me sad. But I do all I can to listen to indigenous voices and learn about the culture in hopes of gaining a better understanding of where she came from.
I just happened to find this on the PBS Independent Lens on TV last night. I had no idea Wabanaki children were taken from their Indian homes and placed in White foster homes.
This is fantastic. I would love to meet this man.
I lived in Maine (North Waterboro near Lake Arrowhead) for two years and I felt the native spirits roam this beautiful land. There was a sadness I felt from long ago. The trees, the plants, the waters, the sky spoke away from any textbook sugar-coated "his"tory- the wind whispered the unwritten stories. Great respect to our indigenous peoples! Great Love! Aho! ❤️-Sunbird
Powerful words thank you
Oh yes the Wabanaki Confederacy, the oldest known Confederacy in the world, older than the Haudenosaunee/Iroquois Confederacy. I believe that the Algonquin people originated from the Underground/world where their/our ancestors lived and some of them are still there and call themselves Wabanaki. Robert
I don't know why I feel so sad when I think about native indians , I can't stop my eyes are fill with tears I really feel this will not happened again here , day by day I feel so
Love it! I’m a Neptune
great people native americans
As a true Indian, I wear a T-shirt with howling wolves that glow in neon colors in the dark.
IT WOULD NOT HURT TO HELP OUT THE TRIBLE PEOPLE THAT NEED THE HELP LIKE THE VERMONT ABENAKI STOP LETTING THE GOVERNMENT CHOOSE FOR US OUR TRIBLE PEOPLES WE CAN DO THAT THANKS PLEASE HELP SAVE THE REST OF OUR CULTURE AND TO BRING IT BACK THANKS
thought was very inspiring speedch
I miss you
I'm a Micmac Indian Also, I got my Indian Papers from the USofA but never got them from Canada. I'm 55yrs old now what are waiting tiil I'm dead ??? 🤔 My mother sent them everything they asked for my brother has never received any of his. I guess it matters how high you are on the Totem Pole !!! 🤔
Thank You ✨
I'm currently on a journey to learn more about my language, culture, and practices. ✌🏽❤️😁🦅👣
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Woplia-Wash'Te'- A-Hey !!!
In my opinion Native American studies should be a yearly required class in all public schools, elementary to high school. The Europeans took this land from the indigenous people we should at the very least learn about their different cultures. If anyone in this country deserves reparations it is the indigenous people alone.
Good thing no one listens to you lol
Music breakfast 🥞 🍳
I am with you…
Constitutional
oh how far we have come since samuel d champlain encouraged our tribes to war against one another
💖
👍
wliwni wawaasino,, kchi k'ezealmel,,,
how can one contact this person? C/o UMO?
Try to convert smoke signals to a JPEG file and attach it to his e-mail.
Probably the occupation of Wounded Knee and others were necessary for progress. In general thanksgiving is the start of Christmas.
I found out that I have 10 generations ago Abenaki grandmother . She married a French trader and lost her tribe .so what can I clame ? Abenaki have been simulated and are almost nonexistent. 😢
Claim to be a human being. Not Indigenous. Anyway, you sound like a troll.
Where are the other tribal members? Where is the talking stick?
There is a reason why people are depicted as alone. They are doing a show. Its better to have a group , teach survival skills and speak the language . in the tribe it is cultural. What he is doing is similar to a mental health clinician, circus performer, Catholic priest or bishop . He isvpreaching . Another comparison would be a Scoutmaster teaching citizenship . There are no efforts to teach the a tribal language
other tribal members, including his wife, were in the audience.
@@jasoncroteau8013 I’m sorry that your world is filled with so much hate, and whatever abuses you suffered as a child.
New age mashup.
Maybe the Mayas have make a Code with 21.2012.... Turn the Numbers and you have 21.2021 the Time of Corona that maybe can all bring to a End?!?
a handful of psychopathic politicians and a few million gullible citizens will definitely bring it to an End.
No, because Mayan numbers are not the same. They weren't using the same system or characters. Their math has nothing to with the numbers you're looking at.
H
You are not indigenous. You are the people of the place we came home. English was not called indigenous I england in 17th century. You sir are what ever yours called USA, still are ad that's what I want to be. How? Not "hello" like we hear in movies but HOW can I be joined. I was born 1981 here I am native to the map but not to the nature.
Show your papers ! Validate your nation you belong to!
He's actually Abanaki
He is a citizen of the Mashpee Wampanoag tribe of Cape Cod belonging to the otter clan. He was the former medicine man of his community before he moved out of Massachusetts. What evidence do you supposedly need?
Do I detect an Italian accent there?
Antifederalist
The wabanaki are not confederate. Thats the Catholic church these events are new age. Plastic shamanism ask has people proclaiming they are cultural directors. Its a side show.
I wonder if he has DNA tested?!
In order to have your tribal card, you have to have direct lineage from tribal members. I forget the cap, it’s like 1/8th or something. It’s called blood quantum. Dna testing would be irrelevant to someone with a tribal card. If someone has native ancestry, a dna test would not qualify them to get a tribal card.
Maybe i know too much american indian history. I am a native american. Lets talk about the warrior tribes who attacked other hard working peaceful tribes. They stole their land and enslaved them. "cousins"? Lol!! Maybe those who where killed and enslaved missed the memo. Lets give a truthful history with no underlying agenda. Please.
Does your history teacher also prescribe synthetic marijuanna at the ufologist meeting?
Indians defiantly didn’t have wars against other tribes, only love
That's simply not true.
@@SynthApprentice don't talk to this guy. He is a troll cruising to get someone mad. His entire sentence screams juvenile attempt
We did have wars with he Mohawk its historical fact tht the Mohawk believed the Maliseetvhad spiritual power to see the future and the would consume the flesh of Maliseet for ceremonies
Patently absurd. Like any cultural group, the tribes did make war on one another for various reasons. Some more than others.
@@mihkupaul6765 you didn’t read the sarcasm huh
Let’s discuss the Indian massacres on simple farmers in Kittery 1698. My great grandfather was killed while plowing and his three sons and wife taken. RIP Enoch Hutchins
TrailLady TrippleCrown Indians were trying to purge the lands of the Pilgrim Worms, then. To do so would have prevented a lot of death, destruction and theft of land and identities.
Its what happens in war times get over it yall won anyways.
Yes, let’s discuss that. Enoch migrated from England. Eventually he went to Kittery and built a garrison. Because obviously simple farmers build garrisons. I’m sure that had nothing to do with choosing to live on the frontier, on land disputed between France and England. Enoch was killed by Indians allied with the French in what was the start of the King Williams War. It is regrettable that Enoch Hutchins lost his life. But do not pretend he wasn’t a militiaman, living in a garrison to occupy land in the name of the Crown. And why did you not mention that France released his sons after the war? I guess that part of the story doesn’t fit your innocent simple farmer narrative.
