I'm from the Navajo nation. 1/2, Navajo 1/2 Laguna Pueblo... I'm 59. Raised in the pacific northwest and was born in NM (1963) very proud to see the nation's of this country still here and being traditional to show other nations that were still living. These dances and songs are centuries old.
I am Scots irish descent ...and I LOVE POW WOW a and seeing Indian brother sisters dancing singing. I have faith .the Great Spurit loves all colors of children
Beautiful! You make your ancestors proud. Citizen of the Cherokee Nation here. My Grandpa used to tell us that the most important thing we can do as Nations is to educate the dominant culture about our Nations. It helps get rid of racist stereotypes, like early Hollywood portrayed our Peoples.
I am part Cherokee and just love pow wows of all Native American tribes, however, the Ogala Lakota are dear to my heart. I have visited at least two of the schools on Pine Ridge Indian Reservation and worked worked with at least two organizations for the last 15 years. The last time I visited was the year prior to the pandemic, but continue to help the schools and First Families Now in Porcupine and Oyate Teca Project in Kyle.. These Lakota and their culture are beautiful and precious. The regalia that the Ogala wear is absolutely gorgeous and it is evident that it took months to be made. The Cherokee love to use bright colors in their regalia, but so do the Ogala. I wish that I could have attended this awesome event.
I am ogalala souix 1/2. It is good to see my people in traditional dress and hear their music and watch them dance. My grandma on my dad's side had some Mongolian blood. There is a Mongolian band named HaYa lead singer Daiquing Tana. Some songs sound Chinese but Lalay Natve American. Their music helps me go places and see things when I meditate.
This is such a wonderful video. Shows how much they respect their heritage and are handing these traditions down to the little ones...who are so precious. You can tell how even the youth are dancing with all their heart and pride. May we all learn by watching these beautiful people uphold their culture.
Ich bin Deutsche. Seit ich ungefähr fünf Jahre alt bin habe ich das Gefühl, in meinem früheren Leben zu einem der indianischen Völker Nordamerikas gehört zu haben. Ihre Tänze, ihre Ausstrahlung und Intensität, ihre Ahnenreihe berühren mich tief, es idt mir so vertraut. Ichbin nun 64 Jahre alt, aber es berührt mich immer noch zutiefst. Ich würde es gerne verstehen....
I almost forgot to mention how touched I felt watching the elders out there participating no matter what health problems they might have. Can you imagine the stories they can tell? Bless you all.
Beautiful Beautiful and so proud. I’m a Russian German. I feel deprived. I’m proud of your culture. The Art of the clothing is mind boggling. Everyone is unique. ❤😊
I'm glad to see youngsters in the group. It would be a shame for these wonderful traditions to die out. I'm only Native American by adoption, but I'm still proud of it.
Once AGAIN… I AM, ALL ENCHANTED!!!! STUNNING DISPLAYS of ART and CULTURE in MOTION!!! I know I’m just an outsider looking in… but even a FOOL could see this must be preserved!!!! WHATEVER it takes❤!!!!
I have always been drawn to pow wows and Native American culture. - the dancing drums, singing,, flutes . It strikes a spiritual place . I believe I was indigenous in a prior lifetime. Likewise , I have also felt a deep soothing for particular Hindu chanting that I had not heard " for eons" - this also was a prior lifetime. Celebrate diversity , as this is just the costume you wear for one lifetime. We have lived many times.
I signed up for the calendar of the powwows next activity and I'm looking forward to going to it I hope my friend can go cuz she's native American Indian and would be excited to see this would be so wonderful I enjoy watching your have a great day to all y'all
LO QUE SON LAS COSAS. ESTOS CAMARADAS SON NUESTROS PRIMOS DE EL LADO MEXICANO. Y EN TODAS LOS POWOW SE ISAN UN MONTON DE BANDERAS. PERO NUNCA LA BANDERA MEXICANA, QUE IRONIA BERDAD????????
You are WRONG!! Get real Lenny. These people are very much alive and still speak their language. They still look very much as they did in the 19th century. This is a celebration of LIFE saying...WE ARE STILL HERE!!!
