The Miccosukee Tribe: The Everglades Are Part of Who We Are 

Well spoken from the perfect spokesperson for a way of life in the Everglades and how to protect it.

God Bless Florida and the original real Americans who lived and still still there

Outstanding 🙏 Thank you and we’re listening 🙏❤️🌺

Extremely Well Done!

Thank you for this.

Love one another

Respect, but the original, people of the Everglades where our Calusa and Tequesta people.

As a Christian, I've come to understand God never intended for us to be cut off from nature the way we have. In Genesis, when God created the first man Adam, God put him in a garden, not a building. Adam was charged with naming the animals, caring for the creation and cultivating the ground; intimately learning together with the Creator. The garden is man's natural habitat. Not saying buildings are wrong but we were never meant to be totally separated from respecting and understanding how the land and water works. The native tribes possess a perspective that many church ministries are missing out on. The more plants and animals around me the more I feel the Creator's love, joy and peace. Everything he has made says something special about him. His thoughtfulness and care towards us.

I like the video, however the Miccosukee are not from the Everglades, they are originally from Sowega or South West Georgia where they moved after the complete collapse of the Mississippian Culture. I presently live in the heart of the Chiaha land where they settled after the fall of the late Mississippian Culture and DeSoto's encounter with them in North GA near the Tennessee line eventually ending up there by the early/middle part of the 18th Century (after Queen Anne's War and the final expulsion of the Spanish Missions in the region). I live not far from where the Muckalee enters the Flint River and about 15 miles from the original Fowl Town before it moved south to where the Flint and the Chattahoochee intersect. The Chiaha aka Miccosukee actually helped clear out the native population of Florida during the 17th and early 18th Century by raiding and selling the natives to English planters in the Carolinas as slaves. The Creek Confederation played a large part in the demise/extinction of the Calusas and the Tequestas who were the natives in that area. The Florida native slave trade is what made the Creek Confederacy so strong by the middle 18th Century. Even Billy Powell aka Osceola is from near Tallassee Alabama fleeing from there with Peter McQueen and Red Stick supporters after the Battle of Horseshoe Bend. Warriors from Chiaha Town in present day Lee Co. GA, who were Miccosukee actually sided with William McIntosh and his Militia who marched with Jackson in the 1st Seminole War. Sorry for the long post, but I was just trying to point out that the Miccosukee, while they now live in the Everglades, they are not from there and only settled there towards the middle of the 19th Century due to continued war with the US.

Show us how to practice native american indian religion

They aren’t the original from Florida they are a descendent of the creek nation that inhabited Georgia the real inhabitants from Florida were wiped out be the Spanish and diseases.but the video is nice

As she makes a trail through the grass lol every native knows that running it over kills it. Yet, they keep killing it for better tips.
