Full Movie: Ghosts of the Great Indian Wars 

I'm Tsalagi. I was taught our language and culture by my grandfather. He also taught me the shooting skills that made me a sniper in the military for 15 years. He also taught me to revere the great Lakota leader Sitting Bull. To this day a photo of Sitting Bull hangs is our home. He was a great man and an exceptionally brave warrior.

I love being indigenous, but I am also mixed with African-American Mexican and Native American. Choctaw is so beautiful to be indigenous. Thank you for going over and respecting our history as Native Americans. Thank you.❤

Indians culture is so beautiful and I am deeply saddened by the terrible ways they were treated 😢 I’m so sorry 😞

Natives of America were just like European tribes that got crushed by Rome---Both Good Pagan folks with a love for and at one with Nature and Earth....

I don't know about you all but this makes me sick what people will do for greed of gold.

fear, sadness, sound of steps, voices, the feeling of being observed... all this has also happened to me more than once in old sites: former mining camps, indigenous religious shrines, slave barracks, my own former woodhouse in the middle of the Patagonian forest... as an archaeologist I can advance many possible causes, BUT "paranormal activity" cannot be totally dismissed, even considering our schooling into the scientific method...

Yes the American Indians where fighting for their freedom and their land ..

After watching the documentary, 'Reel Injuns', I started watched all the Indian westerns, seeing the Native Americans as citizen soldiers fighting for their people. It turns all the stories on their collective heads.

It's the "War of Colonized Aggression " !! NATIVE INDEPENDENCE !!

I live in the wonderful state of Nevada I have been to many ghost towns here in Nevada and I have seen some of these ghosts. They were never harmful but they would stand there and stare I don't know if it was because I was a child and I was sensitive to the spirit but they never scared me but they are there I think those that were killed so brutally didn't realize they were dead and are still wandering

RESPECT for ALL NATIVE AMERICAN PEOPLE🩸💔🩸

History is brutal beyond imagination on all sides. Its human nature and will never stop, none of us are exempt.

I'm not one who goes in for this para normal goo, but I do believe in being able to be in the place where it happened and knowing what took place, of course a person would feel a profound emotional impact. My heart hurts for the treatment of such a fine race of people who have so much knowledge that we don't. Thank you 💛 so much for the beautiful documentary.

Excellent documentary of historical events. I was impressed by the stories of both sides of the history without prejudiced thank you for your hard work, I found this documentary, highly moving.😎🇺🇸👍🥇 it’s very saddening, that the government and people of the time didn’t have the mentality to respect the Native Americans, and what was perpetrated on Cochise what is an excusable? My heart lies with the native Americans.

It was a massacre. Black Kettle had a peace agreement.

Although I don't believe in ghosts or the paranormal I still think this is a good documentary I grew up in South Dakota and none of my Indian friends ever spoke of such things. What's really sad is the damage that was done on both sides. Overall I found I really like that this had either Native historic folks or experts in the Indian wars of this country.

My Mothers ancestors were killed by Mad Dog Cheyennes on the Republican River and survivors went on towards Denver being caught again and all died but one, Summit Springs. The monument mentioned here as being opened up to see up close is in memory of them. Thank you for listening. Susan Alderdice - @ 47:07!!!

I feel a different person after watching this video. Thank you very much for posting it on your site. My eyes have been opened, and I am very grateful for that.

The Wounded Knee massacre occurred in 1890. Recorded by the U S army as the last of the Indian wars. In 1890 the U S census declared that the American frontier no longer existed. Oregon at that time had less than 2 people per square mile in the whole state.

Even now, I remember the stories of men whom survived that time when death ruled the land. They never feared it and it was the religion and culture that allowed them to overcome such odds. We owe them our existence. I honor them.

Great documentary of a tragic historical period. Lets learn out of it for the future !

War... War never Changes.

This is great!!!! Thank you for this!!

Love this powerful documentary. American countryside great people

I watch a LOT of docs. This is one of the best I've seen in a long while. five stars

“We even burned some sage”…that is really hard to do and way to go the extra mile

Bison shall recognize you at a moment you are not prepared. Spirituality is stronger than killing visions. Bison represent a power you cannot slaughter.

I need more of this documentary!

I'm Lakota Eagles are good luck to all native Americans Indians

Manifest destiny was purely theft of anothers land. However two wrongs don't make a right centuries later.

This was a masterpiece👍 thank you

Thank you for this Video. Peoples emotional reactions on that may be diverse, as they are on the viewpoint of historic facts. I had a personal journey June 2022 visiting a lot of this places you described. I was there alone and in silence. I’m not a believers of ghost stories but the spiritual touch and presence was so overwhelming. You didn’t feel anything at Fort Robinson? I could only stay there as long as it takes to smoke a cigarette. I could write a book about that journey.

Excellent piece, thank you 10/10 👏👏🇬🇧

Nice history lesson

The Confederates weren't routed at Glorieta Pass, NM, in 1862. It was a tactical draw, but a Union detachment slipped behind enemy lines, and destroyed the entire Confederate Supply Train of 80 Wagons. Without logistical supplies, the Confederates abandoned New Mexico, many dying during the retreat through dry desert heat.

A beautifully written documentary

Love this , fascinating stuff

None can say who succeeded and who failed - this struggle has yet to be resolved.

Wasted life is always so sad! Always twists my heart!

Thank you 🤩🤩💖

Great story, thanks.👍❤

Who invented that horror of "Scalping!!"??? Has anyone lived, from scalping? Scares me, as I might not be fully dead when they do it. I could be pretending, laid playing dead....when they dive on you "HYAAA YIP YIP!!!" "SSSSKKKRRRUNCCCHHHH!!!!!!!"

The sepia-type footage is very good!

Yes good luck to all my brothers and sisters, God bless you 🙏

some people dont like the truth

Amazing stuff 👍👍

Wild West Extravaganza is an awesome channel to hear real stories warts & all about the Wild West.

I've been to the Little Big Horn. Indeed, it's a creepy place.

This s in a way is still going on today.

Word must be out amongst the ghosts that if they come pulling shenanigans around me they'll be gettin' a big whoopin' coz I never seen any. Cool video though.

Custar knew darn well that he was unanimously out numbered but his pride definitely God in his way ,and so be it.

I have a few different tribes or nations in my lineage. Along with most of northern Europe. I've been told a lot of stories by some pretty big liars. I don't know if I'm Canadian native or American native. Could be both. I remember my grandmother and she wasn't white. I saw pictures of her when she was in her early twenties and I asked who the Mexican lady was with grandpa. I once met my great grandfather's youngest brother. He told me that I had a great great great grandmother that was sold after being born because the settlers or the tribe didn't want her for being a half breed. She somehow made her way into Michigan to be free...

I spent a week in a camp on a WW1 battlefield in Flanders where hundreds of thousands died and I never had any paranormal experiences. Neither day nor night.

💪

That was a Pretty Good Documentary about the Plains Indian War's. But I was a little Skeptical about some of the Narrative, & the Factuality of some of it. IT didn't Jive completely with what I had Researched, Read, or even been Told about certain Fact's, or Aspects of the Different Battle's, Engagements, or Encounters of the Native's & the Frontiersman & Thier Families. OR the Various, Militaries Experiences with the Various, named Tribe's, or Faction's of those Group's. But of Course there is a lot of Very Impressive, important literature, that has been Lost or Accidentally Destroyed Over the Last One Hundred Years, or so. That held immense knowledge & information about those Event's, & those By Gone Year's. The Stories, Tales, Gen. Reasonings, and Discussion's of these long Ago Events. Is what I think 💬🤔 Makes History so GD Exciting even in Our Lifetime's Still. Personally I don't know that I will ever get Tired 🤣😴 of it, & it's just pure Attraction too want too Know? More about what Happened, at the Time of the Event or the Occurrence. Thank You for Sharing Your Research and the Video Documentary, it was Very Impressive, Informative, & Entertaining too View.

My brother in law was presented with an eagle feather in ceremony. Quite an honor.

I was told by somebody who was told by somebody else's Aunts Uncle twice removed that there's footsteps in the Fort "When Nobody's Around"

This should be a testimony of never trusting the govt,this broke my heart over and over, even though I've read this several times over

Gone!? Wth...no, no we are not gone! We are still here , reclaiming or culture ,land , language and ways.

It’s funny how people say they don’t believe in ghosts or spirits. It’s your your opinion but the truth is people say they don’t believe in ghost spirits. I just want you guys to know that we all have spirits inside of us what I mean by that is we are a big bowl energy waiting to explode so just think about that anytime someone says they don’t believe in ghosts or spirits all spirits electro, magnetic energy, and that’s what we are made out of we are made up is electric, magnetic energy. We are spirits we are ghost.

❤

Should be "American" BALD EAGLE, Deserves RESPECT FROM ALL Americans, and protected.

💎

Yeah ! Earthpeople .

My respect and heart will always be for the Native Americans, The 500 Nations, which could only ever be beaten, by murder and low, underhanded methods and corrupt officials. Custer has been portrayed in movies as a self centred glory hunter, and his actions only prove that. Successive US Governments broke treaties and sought the murders of the tribal leaders to break their pride and spirit. But thankfully, that Native American spirit is still very much alive.

I could do without the ghost stuff but I appreciate the history. There are a few places I've never heard of

We used to lease land adjacent to summit springs battle field where buffalo bill got his moh.

Man these guys got to learn about demons!......

I have heard of the Native American actor called Saginaw Grant. He's not alive anymore.

Scott's Bluff is in NORTHWEST Nebraska .😊

Well seeing that everyone else is saying.. I'm Cherokee/Irish(North Carolinian)

The Native Americans Indians Genocide

How can this episode start by asking: Who was the ultimate winner in the battles between the Native Peoples and those fighting for "manifest destiny"? What an insult to our Native Peoples. Those who are still living on poverty stricken reservations. Those trying desperately to bring back their cultural heritage to their children. Yet, our Native Peoples have stepped up and fought heroically in conflicts this country becomes involved in. Sacrificing themselves for a country who returns them to a reservation lifestyle. The battle for "manifest destiny" was bloody on both sides. So much bloodshed. So much loss. What would have been the outcome if the government stood by their treaties made with the Native Peoples? If an area was sacred, no "white" could take it upon themselves to break the treaty. The government just needed to actually do/say as promised. We could still have spread across the country to the Pacific. Just with the Native Peoples seen as equals and worthy of honor and respect.

Lots of demonic spirits circling in that area.

Let me find out the 1st culture approaciraton was Indians adopting the horse culture as their own from the Spanish culture...

One of my tre grandmothers was a full blood Cherokee. I think the American Indians were very mistreated.

In the Gratton massacre it was Chief Conquering Bear who was killed, not Brave Bear

I wanna go to the summit springs today as it is close but I wanna know how to contact homeowners as I begin To follow through on my passions. I wanna be safe and I also wanna get the most out of my trips. I imagine trying to knock at thwrw home ? I’ll have to keep researching so I know the appropriate way to do this respectfully 😊

So the Indian hiding behind a box outside the cabin gets hit, while the one’s running are ok. Nice job mister director

When will native folks realize that their beliefs kept them from the progress needed to defend your land. Having chats with the caribou and deer I'm sure was a wild ride when on the shrooms but other people across the big pond weren't making deals with the trees lol. One would have to assume the native God (creator) was tripping out on shrooms too and missed the boat when it came to cultural evolution lol

Somebody please tell the narrator that mounted soldiers are called "cavalry". Calvary is a hill in Jerusalem where Jesus was crucified.

Ya that's what happens when you get yourself open to the occult.

Like they say, to the Victor's go the spoils!

Hi, I am sure this is going to be a great documentary. But the constant flashing of the back light effect. Could put a person with photo sensitive epilepsy into a seize. Nothing badly meant in any way. Just an observation 😊

Its not chanting, its singing, its not tom toms, its called drums.

I’m very proud of the numerous cavalry troop. We owe them much gratitude for their bravery.

Perfect job. I am windering who is listening to the holy Quran in the area. Is it in US, please let me know.

hunting your kin is the pinnacle of civilization ??/

en Français sa serai excellent

Human blood is a strong fertilizer. Vegetation grows well were many bodies have died.

Typical, some idiot stared it, we shouldn't be blamed in anyway, but born Boston 1960 I always felt I've lived on someone else's land, we settled the west, no, we stole the west, east, north and south.

No Custer and the Union army generals never said the Cheyenne dog soldiers were the greatest light cavalry that ever existed.. Napoleon the third said that. He had visited the northern great plains in the late 1820'sa.. For some reason the conflict in terms that the( here insert name of indian tribe you are talking about) are the greatest light cavalry that ever existed.. It has been used whenever a poorly informed historian wannabe wants to try an impress his audience.. It is past time that - the greatest light cavalry in the world- quote is retired and not used again.. best Bruce Peek

Message : les gens de ce temps, des menteurs. N'y sois pas sympa, des coups de fouets à prendre.

It is not fair to blame hunters for the buffalo slaughter , blame the fur trade and a disgraceful policy of extermination from a so called civilised society .

Trust Jesus Christ the Son of God !! Repent and True Repentance is Asking Forgiveness of your sins and Trusting that Jesus Christ died and resurrected from the dead for you , Money will NOT get you to Heaven, Going to Church will NOT get you to Heaven, being A Good person will NOT get you to Heaven , as Roman’s 10:9 says, Roman’s 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead , thou shalt be Saved !! It’s says believe, you must have Faith in the death burial and Resurrection and Follow Christ and you will be Saved !!

If you wanna sound kinda dumb call drums “tums tums”

All my heros killed cowboys !!!

Fort Laramie "Sounds of Footsteps When NOBODY IS AROUND".. ?? Huh? So how does anyone know there's ghostly footsteps if they're not around? Duh

😢😢I love the native american/Canadians. Whilst wrongs where done on both sides probably more so by the settlers. However we cannot deny the fact that the settlers and the white Americans committed what today would be called genocide/biological warfare in terms of bringing their diseases with them influenza/measles /smallpox. To name but a few. Trail of tears /residential schools seriously dark chapters 💔💔💔💔.
