J'adore les pow wow. Sauvez vos traditions. Ne laissez pas les blancs trop vous influencer. Vous qui ne connaissiez pas l'argent, ni la drogue, ni l'alcool.
Can't lie, that stuff is very spiritual. I did a sweat lodge once and when that door closed and I was in total darkness and the water was poured over the ceremonial rocks, they started drumming and singing and It was like I took some psychedelics. I couldn't breathe and I remember pushing my face into the cold dirt and being so thankful for mother earth and the fact that the cold dirt likely helped me through the sweat lodge. There were times when I didn't think I'd make it. But at some point I let go and gave into the spirit. It was a very good experience over all. Then we had a big feast. I kind of get emotional just thinking about it. Trippy mane. #❤
There was something pretty spiritual about Gregorian Chant before the post Vatican Council Catholic Church largely dropped it for rock bands and inculturation of every shade and colour.
The drum/drummer are powerful sacred and spiritual device. I was told to close my eyes and wait for the vision at one ceremony....as soon as I thought it's not gonna happen the vision took hold and answered a most troubling question that I was harbouring.
Stunning bead work. Im so pleased to find these channels of our strong First People brothers and sisters being true and celebrating their Souls, culture and ancestery, keeping these sacred songs alive. Thank you.
Not native american but I occasionally listen to these on RU-vid. Sometimes when I'm sad or stressed. I just listen to the power and beauty from these amazing singers and it helps to soothe my soul ❤
Being there in person is much better. Try finding a powwow or go the Gathering of Nations. It happens once every year, always takes place in New Mexico. It's the biggest pow wow and many different tribes will travel there. The energy is pretty intense and awesome especially if its your first time. Makes you wanna get up and dance. Plus they got different vendors and stuff. Last time I went was like 2017 I think 😊
I REMEMBER WHEN I WAS IN THE ARMY THERE WAS THIS NATIVE BROTHA ABOUT 6’7” ABOUT 320 POUNDS….HE BLEW MY MIND LEADING THE PACK ON PT RUNS(ABOUT 3 MILES) WITH THE PLATOON GUIDE FLAG….HE HELD IT DOWN LIKE HE BEEN DOIN IT HIS WHOLE LIFE!!! I COULD HAVE NEVER DONE IT!!! RESPECT!!! ✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This music is very hip optic for me anyway , when I listening to it my head was moving on its own in a hipnotic rythum ❤ and I found it so powerful. I’m going to try it for meditation.
You should go to a real Indian festival 🎎 they are so beautiful the dancing the singing the drums it's so amazing and they have so many people get in a circle and dance together I go to one every year in our small town Airville, Pa at the museum called Indian steps look it up the museum is also something you will want to check out. It's history and it's wonderful I believe they have it at the end of September or August Indian Steps Museum Airville, Pa ❤❤❤
@@monicahoke6989 is that part of the powwow trail? My cousin does males fancy Dance and travels all over Canada and the US competing almost year round.
@@peacepipe6695in no way is any native culture "about to be decimated". More than likely, you don't even know what decimation is/was. It's not the 1800s anymore. We're not at war or being hunted down. It's not the 1900s anymore. We're not being dragged off our homes to residential schools. Our cultures are on a dramatic resurgence and have been for 2-3 generations now. Own that.
Interpeller l'esprit des ancêtres qui par les chants vous traversent votre âme oh combien de récit et d'histoire guerriers ,garder le patrimoine vivant pour des generations future, respect pour les Amérindiens .de part l'algérien 🙏🇩🇿
Come on. That’s not singing and you know it. the world had opera, classical, romantismo, hindu classicism, daiko, Circassian dance by the time these guys had this. And that’s just a single tap on the drum, the most basic drum beat there is. This is nothing.
@@Gwiz000 i don’t appreciate cultural output based on solely its existence. If it’s good I will give it credit even if I don’t personally like it. But there’s nothing here to rate. Give me a brief critique, explain to me some of the methods, technicalities and using some of the nomenclature if you can, and if this is indeed a cultural art form, what is going on and what basis are we rating it. Just do like you would for ballet for example or any other discipline you appreciate and tell me what is that I’m missing why I should appreciate it because your saying I must, and it’s a 🤦♀️ that I don’t. Im just double checking that you aren’t appreciating it only because it exists and you do actually have interest in it, and aren’t just claiming so to be nice to the native folks while going after me when you don’t even clue about it yourself.
The Peace drum.... I remember it very well. I played it in Nashville TN, many years ago, the tribe from Virginia was visiting the foundry, a church in TN, I used to volunteer there...
Dope , love it . True warrior culture . At peace with the earth and in harmony with the universe . They had it right all along and it’s more and more apparent everyday. Respect.👊🏻🙏🏻🤘🏻
My dad Anishinaabe My moms family is scotch Irish I get the exact same feeling listening to this as a pipe band Like I don’t necessarily like it as my favourite kind of music But is deifnforly hits my spine in a way that no other music does
Lol people romantic their roots too much, not everyone’s ancestors were “warriors” lol most people ancestors regardless of tribe or culture we most likely peasants 😂
@@kingkaidelam2997 I’m from the third world but not everyone’s ancestors were warriors lol that goes for every culture, there were all different class of people . Your direct lineage could’ve been traders, farmers, herders etc . This isn’t a movie
Iam glad the indigenous peoples are getting the respect they deserve I remember growing up hearing all the negativity being said about them by the media, movie studios, and non indigenous people
I scrolled onto this in a bitter and sad mood, immediately judged the young man. I went to the comments and read while hearing it play a few times and felt the pressure in my chest begin slipping away. Powerful music
I am African American but my mother's side is Powhatan Indian from Virginia and my father's is Blackfoot. When I heard this my ody had chills because I felt the connection. Unbelievable.
I am a white man but i grew up going to the mankato powwow every year and ill continue to go. This is ironically the sound of my childhood and i wouldn't want it any other way.
Really, it's caring to keep the culture alive that matters, not genetics. The blood quantum laws were designed knowing that as time goes on fewer people will be fullblooded, and in 200 years it might plateau as high as 6% in the most indigenous spots for the most numerous tribes in north america. It wasn't originally a genetic thing, the different tribes are different cultures who exchanged genetics constantly to the point that testing can't reveal what tribe, just broad regions. Being in a tribe back before European contact was about being part of a community that supported each other for survival, carrying on traditions and a language passed down generations, and caring for the land and the life in it so that your descendants have food and can take care of themselves. Now these days the languages are dying out after being made illegal for a long time, and people are nervous to take part in a dying culture even though it would keep it alive just because some people hate hippies. I think it's a bad idea to go overboard, but being respectful means bigots will have an issue so you'll be criticized by the uppercase whites anyway. I'm 1/16th Cherokee and I was raised by my white side of the family who didn't like indigenous people or africans. I have anxiety that makes it hard to be social so I don't feel like I am part of any culture in particular, I might move to, or near Talequah, but regardless I'll leave any land I own as close to it's natural state as possible, and I'm learning the language. That's what I feel suits me, and I hope you do what suits you, whoever is reading this.
I like the way they shout "Natural and most of the time wild and beautiful as well as impressive". That is also their Spiritual Ceremony which I find inspirational and Heavenly! Great strength to my Soul and to my mind. For some mysterious reason I feel very powerful psychologically by listening to their "Spiritual Shout". 😇❤️🌟❤️😇
Love seeing cultural practices kept alive! I imagine that American natives get the same feeling in their soul as I do when I hear bagpipes and drums. Ancestral music speaks to the human spirit in ways that commercial “music” can’t.
As a Mexican and seeing the culture died here in the United States I show respect to everyone else showing the younger generation the culture. This here is badass.
Lol these dumbasses replying to you CRACK me up (they all seem mentally ill) aho! From tulalip tribes ❤ it means hello. Hytchecu (high-chet-cuh) It means thank you 🤟🏽🙏🏽
@@hondaboys_420 umm. I was born in the Indian capital of the USA buddy Anadarko Oklahoma. I know all about Indian culture. Home of the Indian fair. Still sounds like they listen to coyotes for music to me.
He is singing from his heart .deepest part of his being.i can feel his pain his heart .I know when I walk into a pow wow ,I always start to cry .idk why..it's a NDN THING.❤❤❤❤❤
I'm not Native but infact Acehnese but listening to this just made me proud, I would occasionally watch these type of videos and I love their culture! It has power and would brighten my day :)
