She Refused To Be An Indian Wife: Delaware Indians Attack the Bard Family in Pennsylvania, 1758 

Likewise.

Ditto! My mother is a traditional dancer, her name is Wandering Star. With that said, I think all humans can be SAVAGES, look at how we treat each other now.😬🤦🏻‍♀️✌🏼😎

You shouldn't be surprised though

I worked for a man named Bard in the Philly area for about 20 years, a long time ago. I wonder if he is related?

⁠@@cdcdogs4961i believe anyone can be forced to do anything when they’re desperate enough? Not necessarily forced by others but just inside themselves x I never think this is a true judgement of character, just a desperation or last resort thing, such an amazing and emotional story x I’d love to hear more, if you all know anymore x ❤

Agreed...Cain vs Abel

Noble savage is obviously English words, where did it come from?

I know the Delaware were one of the more violent Nations. Mandan, as well. truth is the awful tortures, scalping & murders were on both sides. We just don't read about Indians doingthem much. Interesting fact is that scalping was started by the "invaders" & Indian scalps were paid for (as bounty). Indians copied this awful act but used their scalps as signs of their prowess as a warrior & displayed ontheir horses & spears.

@@lilymack4028 No, Indians were doing it long before the white man arrived - to each other. They were brutal to one another. In one battle, they took the wounded and threw their bodies in the fire so they could laugh at their creams of pain.

This is why we all need Jesus. He redeems us all.

Scalping was started by illegals on Indigenous Lands -COMANCHE NATION

You'll see this behavior in every tribe taught by Talmud scum. The new world ain't new

And she lived to tell about it...not so sure she would have been had she been Lenape captured by the British! Btw...mine ancestors were of the same Turtle Clan that intermarried with the William Penn Quakers...my other People!

And we think that we have hard lives. Lol What an amazing person. That would be quite the ordeal.

@@letsdothis9063 yes it was. She saw her father killed by Chief Killbuck as she watched and she fainted. That turned out to be lucky for her as the Lenape believed they could not kill somebody who fainted as that person’s spirit would haunt them. She was spared the fate of the other adults. Sarah had red hair and her brother in law heard of a red headed Indian woman. He dared the Indians to bring her to Fort Pitt. When he saw it was her, they started a commotion and hid her under a stack of hides in a store until the Indians who held her captive gave up and stopped looking for her. The sad part was her daughter had been told she was dead and the daughter refused to see her. Sarah did remarry and had a second family, so I guess there was a happy ending.

Native Americans! Wrong continent for Indians

Wow!!!! Wow...what a story!

Build your nation? The nation belonged to the native people of America. Colonialists had no right what so ever to take their land. You should be ashamed of your ancestor s, not proud of them and certainly not defensive of them.

@@eileenmoore5960 They had no nation, they were more or less warring tribes not doing anything with the land. Yes, I'm proud my ancestors turned this vast wilderness into the most technologically advanced, militarily powerful, freest, and wealthiest country in the history of the world.

​@@tragickingdom15 You mean Epstien Island is what you people built -COMANCHE NATION

@@tragickingdom15 Your comment here is American narcissism at it's height.

@@eileenmoore5960 No, it's the truth.

Only European men are narcissistic enough to believe(?) that women had no agency in their own land.

Men of almost ALL CULTURES abuse women. I say ALMOST because I know there are cultures that I am not familiar with & some cultures value and respect women.

@@legadema3717 of course but there are cultures that arrange marriages as is the custom in India

I'm sure you're right. Typically captives were slaves & being beaten was part of that life. Depending on the Nation, after a period of time a woman would be married. If she refused she woudl remain a slave of be killed. Pretty easy choice, IMO.

All of the above.

​@@user-wi6sh6vh8utroll?

Apparently not.

They attacked other Indian tribes with equal savagery

They are my people and intermarried with the William Penn Quakers who are my other People... Btw...The British were the true "Savages!"

They lived along the East Coast of America and owned what is now all of Manhattan NY... eating mostly oysters and were an agricultural tribe... They built long houses and sweat lodges... they mainly used traps and dug pits for hunting and are the oldest tribe of all the Native American tribes...30,000 years+!

​@@gemjourney5210how in the world could they have been that old, the earth is not 6000 years old?

My ggggreat grandmother and 5 children were taken in 1792 by Shawnee in virginia.witnessing my ggggr grandfather being killed n scalped in their farmhouse..a posse freed them the next day in a battle. In the posse was Ephraim Hatfield a widower. They later got married and had 5 children together and and became the Hatfield Clan of later feud history..my grandmother was Annie McKinney Musick Hatfield

As a matter of fact 233 yrs ago today Aug 12,1792

Because it would make a group of people look bad other than whites. They are only allowed to make whites look bad.

Blame it on the followers of the philosophies of Karl Marx and Lenin.

Doesnt fit the victim narrative

​@@user-wi6sh6vh8uSmall 🎩

Obviously it looks like it no doubt.

Same here.

Most Americans aren't aware that most of the American British loyalists ended up moving to Canada.This is likely a good thing, as they would no doubt like Canadians less.

Likewise.

Intriguing.

So when are you Europeans going home -COMANCHE NATION

A lot of the Californian tribes were peaceful like the Puebloans. Unfortunately despite being peaceful they were subjected to genocide.

@@deadhorse1391 I've noticed they won't let real Indigenous PEOPLE comment on these videos -COMANCHE NATION

@@thechiefwildhorse4651 well I’m a Native American….I was born in New York City

There was constant low level warfare in America and genocides among the tribes before European people came.

That concept hadn’t yet been developed at this date.

women don't build nations

All the way.

Obviously it looks like it.

Sure.

100% it takes maturity to understand that humans are complex creatures filled with both the capacity for good and evil and everything in between. Exists today, existed hundreds of years ago. Do your own research and use your brain by asking questions and considering why people do what they do.

Especially in lacking indoor plumbing 🪠 and only to heat the water was over an open fire.

​@@user-wi6sh6vh8u So did the majority Europeans living at the same time, they didn't all have access to the same technologies that the rich Europeans did.

And possibly Chivington who perpetrated the Sand Creek massacre?

They loved anyone who would massacre the indigenous population

Yes.

Modern day liberal bullshit propaganda

Sarcasm?

@@michellehankinson3552 No, I'm dead serious.

Well said. This is what we’ve been spoon fed for decades

Glad to oblige.

Likewise.

Very interesting. Never heard that before.

Was going to say the same. We may be speaking about different points, but being First Nations tribal member myself, I've never once heard anyone say that things got better for our ancestors when white men colonized. I guess there are many ways one can perceive life as "better"....maybe this isn't the right channel for My opinion. Interesting video nonetheless

It would be nice if maybe you watched the classic William Shatner movie “WHITE COMANCHE” on RU-vid? It’s quite an interesting movie to say the least.

Likewise.

Most intriguing.

You aren’t responsible for what your ancestors did and neither am I. Quite frankly the world was very brutal in times past. Everyone was enslaving, murdering, raping, and colonizing everyone else it seems. I’m grateful every day that I’ve been born in North America in the here and now.

Yes that time period cold be brutal. I get the land steal and migrants enacting their own rules and laws, but those natives didn't separate the people that did them harm from innocents. It was horrible on all sides. Be grateful our present is as peaceful with easy survival.

Only Heaven knows.

Good luck.

Who can tell?

Tell it to the Apache and Shawnee tribes.

I live in the area where the DE indians lived. We were always taught they were so peaceful.

​@@yankeecitygirlThats the problem. Real history has been suppressed

This artwork is AI generated. It has a "look" about it that isn't quite right. Programmers have a ways to go. Even then, i suspect AI generated portrait "art" will still be easily detected.

Likewise.

Fact check: False carbon dating shows scalping in the America's far back as 600 AD. Furthermore, the massacre at Crow Creek was in the 1300s, and the French or other Europeans didn't arrive for another 200 years. You are awarded no points.

Definitely.

When was scalping done by white men?

​@@michellehankinson3552the French needed proof for payment

Except for the fact that they were dealing with Delaware Indians, not Japanese soldiers.

@@user-wi6sh6vh8u I guess evil is just evil.

More or less.

Only the alleged rattler looks more like a South American Fer-Du-Lance, or Fer-Du-Lac.

Lowlanders.

I'm a Scottish Bard but there are also Irish Bards

And historians call Lewis Wetzel brutal. Without ever telling why he did what he did. I don't blame him . Not one bit.

I understand quite thoroughly.

They were busy taking each other's lands so they aren't saints either.

There was constant low level warfare among the Indian tribes and also genocides among them long before Europeans came to America. Brutal violent behavior is not specific to any one race or nationality. It’s also why we all need Jesus.

I am a descendant of both Lenape and William Penn Quakers and I approve your message!👍

What’s that.

How puzzling.

Mmmmmmmm no

Her husband ransomed her and they went on to have 8 or 9 children. You must have zoned out during that part.

Why not ? Some of the casino owning tribes are investing the profits very well and are even buying some old tribal lands back. For reconciliation purposes the Government should even consider to return some federal land to the tribes.

Agree 100%

@@fritzruttimann1517 then they should no longer receive government compensation.

What govt compensation?? and it's our land we were here first fartknocker...after small pox and the trail of tears and the damn indian schools you think we deserve less than what little we get already?? You can't vilify an entire group of people because of the misbehaviour of some of its members plus we saved your ancestors butt that first thanksgiving and alot of us helped with the french and Indian war and revolutionary war as interpreters and warriors like my ancestor Nancy ward.. also mr.redneck clearly you should study how the us military got some of their combat tactics from native Americans.. I'm truly sorry and sad some of my kin hurt youngsters and women but two wrongs don't make a right and the anglos did their fair share too and alot of us mixed families wouldn't be here if the hillbillies didnt fancy the local women..also English women didn't always have a rough time with native men since some were better looking and treated their ladies better than english men..it takes two to tango geniuses and both sides did alot of lousy things yet still did alot of good...but to say we deserve less is disghusting and not all people who are native American are bad

⁠@@fritzruttimann1517 That would be stupid. And completely undeserving. Any land a person who has tribal heritage owns, uses, occupies should have to pay for it with money earned by hard work, not given to them by a government swayed by bleeding hearts who don’t know history.

In what way?

More or less.

Thievery!

Oh my. Bottom line one nation( 5 Nations) sold land to the British Empire that belonged to other tribes. Without those tribes knowing of course. So the British start to settle the area , we'll look at what's going on in Great Britain today and you get the picture.

Please do not mistake the killing of the children as a kindness. It was more likely to prevent them from slowing the party's travel. There are many examples of such raiding groups keeping kidnapped children alive. Such captives were added to the local band, even those of non- Indigenous ancestry.

@@buffewo6386 of course what I just said

@@buffewo6386 it’s mercy not kindness

Interesting question.
