Native nations could take back the Americas? Considering what natives went though, raped, robbed, murdered and erased cultures and stolen land.

Edit: I feel so bad. I grabbed a random map thinking it may be somewhat accurate but seems to be offending some people in another sub and want to provide a better representation.

u/jmoherperc shared a very useful app that shows a better depiction. Native Lands apple

Edit 2: I'm a bit upset now. I went to r/nativeamerican trying to share this game and was automatically welcomed with being called a colonizer and disrespectful despite my initial apologizes and wish to invite the sub to join in the fun.

I'm not the one who committed crimes in our history books. I'm a victim to our government. I have also suffered.

It's disheartening that people will feed into generational trauma and systemic issues while pushing potential allies away.

I don't care about this anymore.

Scam Caught !!! My previous conclusion on those pieces being completely ceramic are 100% confirmed by the cream itself in the current season . The reason they are circling towards alien and heat shield nonsense is to not prove ifs Ancient Indian pottery . They are hiding it so Utah officials don’t take over the land for unauthorised Burial Site excavations which they are currently conducting

I recently made a video in Spanish about the Cheyenne Dog Soldiers, one of the most feared warrior societies of the Great Plains. What caught my attention most was the tradition that some of them would stake themselves to the ground during battle, as a vow not to retreat unless another warrior released them.

The Dog Soldiers were more than fighters — they became one of the strongest indigenous resistance groups against U.S. expansion after events like Sand Creek. Leaders like Roman Nose turned into almost legendary figures, combining warfare with spiritual beliefs.

I added English subtitles for anyone interested. I’d also like to know: how much of the Dog Soldiers’ reputation comes from documented history, and how much from later myth-making?

So proud of my Afro-Indigenous/Afro-Latina mom and my beautiful mixed heritage! I always been told growing up “You look Asian, you got Asian eyes.” Now I know why, it’s cause of my Indian features from my Afro-Indio mother 😭 we’re also getting a dna test kit soon for ancestry.com to see how much indigenous blood we have, I already know we’re indigenous to this land and don’t need a colonial tool to prove it, but doing it anyways lol.

If only the U.S. would recognize and count these as official tribes. Appearently we’re just tribal people ☠️

Pemmican is dried meat pounded into powder, combined with rendered fat in equal proportions by weight, and pressed into bars with dried berries. That is the entire recipe. Three ingredients. No refrigeration. No cooking required to eat it. A shelf life measured in months to years under the right conditions. One pound of pemmican delivers approximately 3,000 to 3,500 calories, a full day of sustenance for an active adult, in a package you can carry in your coat pocket.

The Cree, Lakota, Blackfeet and dozens of other Plains nations had been making it for generations before the fur trade era, and when European explorers and traders encountered it they immediately understood what they were looking at. The Hudson's Bay Company built an entire industrial supply chain around it. Robert Falcon Scott took it to Antarctica. Ernest Shackleton's men ate it on the ice after the Endurance was crushed.

William Clark wrote in his journal near what is now Great Falls Montana in 1805: the Hunters killed 3 buffaloe, the most of all the meat I had dried for to make Pemitigon. The spelling is characteristically Clark, creative and phonetic, but the reference is unambiguous. The Corps of Discovery made pemmican from bison on the trail and first encountered it as a prepared food at the formal feast hosted by the Lakota Sioux early in the journey.

The journals of Lewis and Clark, edited by Gary Moulton and published by the University of Nebraska Press, are the most thoroughly documented food record in American exploration history and pemmican appears in them as a staple of survival rather than a curiosity. These men were eating nine pounds of fresh meat per man per day on good days and boiling candles to eat on bad ones. When they made pemmican they were thinking about the bad days.
