"Crowfoot stood and watched as the white man spread many one dollar bills on the ground. “This is what the white man trades with; this is his buffalo robe. Just as you trade skins, we trade with these pieces of paper.” When the white chief had laid all his money on the ground and shown how much he would give if the Indians would sign a treaty, Crowfoot took a handful of clay, made a ball out of it and put it on the fire. It did not crack. Then he said to the white man, Now put your money on the fire and see if it will last as long as the clay. The white man said, No….my money will burn because it is made of paper. With an amused gleam in his eyes the old chief said, Oh, your money is not as good as our land, is it? The wind will blow it away; the fire will burn it; water will rot it. But nothing will destroy our land. You don’t make a very good trade. Then with a smile, Crowfoot picked up a handful of sand from the river bank, handed it to the white man and said, You count the grains of sand in that while I count the money you give for the land. The white man said, I would not live long enough to count this, but you can count the money in a few minutes. Very well, said the wise Crowfoot, our land is more valuable than your money. It will last forever. It will not perish as long as the sun shines and the water flows, and through all the years it will give life to men and animals, and therefore we cannot sell the land. It was put there by the Great Spirit and we cannot sell it because it does not really belong to us. You can count your money and burn it with a nod of a buffalo’s head, but only the Great Spirit can count the grains of sand and the blades of grass on these plains. As a present we will give you anything you can take with you, but we cannot give you the land.” Chief Crowfoot : Blackfoot Confederacy

The Moment Between Breath He dives through the mirror of the sun, a streak of emerald and hunger. Below, the river dreams in silver and the fish waits, not in fear, but in knowing. They meet where life touches death, and neither breaks. The bird takes breath, the fish becomes light, and the water remembers both. It is not cruelty that binds them, but the rhythm that keeps the world alive. For every flight is fed by surrender, and every ending shapes the dawn.

Congratulations - Lily Gladstone for being the first Native Indigenous Blackfeet/Nimíipuu Female in its eighty one year history, to win the Best Actress at the Golden Globe Awards for her role in "Killers of the Flower Moon!" "The villains are fairly obvious in “Flower Moon,” but Scorsese asks audiences to take a wider look at systemic racism, historical injustice and the corruptive influence of power and money, intriguingly tying together our past and present." ~ Brian Truitt, "Gladstone, in the rare Scorsese film that gives center stage to a female character, is the emotional core here, and it's her face that stays etched in our memory." ~ Jocelyn Noveck “This is for every little Rez kid, every little urban kid, every little Native kid out there who has a dream and is seeing themselves represented in our stories told by ourselves, in our own words..." ~ Lily Gladstone "We Are Still Here!" Top : Mollie Kyle (Burkhart, Cobb) Osage, (1886-1937) Bottom: Lily Gladstone, (Blackfeet-Nez Perce Thank you for reading and liking the article Proud to be a Native American. Very worth reading

The Eagle Who Lifts the Sun Before the world breathes, before names return, the dark still hums beneath the sky. From the bones of the mountain, the Eagle stirs. Its wings remember the first fire, its cry splits the dream of night. The rivers pause. Even the wind listens. Then, with a slow and sacred motion, it rises and the Sun follows. Not born, but carried. Not commanded, but invited. Light spills from its feathers, falls into the hands of the sleeping earth. The people say: When the Eagle grows weary, the dawn will forget the way home. So each morning, we whisper our thanks to the sky for the wings that lift the day, for the spirit that remembers us even when we forget the light. 🙏🙏 You can get the purchase link in the comments under each image.

Russell Means walked into the Bureau of Indian Affairs headquarters in Washington in November 1972, stepped over broken glass from the windows protesters had smashed hours earlier, and told a line of armed federal agents, “If you shoot, do it in front of the cameras.” The agents froze. That confrontation made him the most feared Native activist in the country overnight. Means had spent years watching his community on Pine Ridge suffer poverty, corruption, and federal neglect. He had buried friends. He had seen elders humiliated in government offices. When the American Indian Movement organized the Trail of Broken Treaties caravan, Means insisted they bring a twenty point proposal and deliver it directly to the federal government. The BIA locked the doors. Means pushed inside anyway. The takeover lasted six days. Protesters slept on office floors. Papers flew out of cabinets. Officials panicked. The White House threatened force. Means held daily press briefings beside a shredded U.S. flag taken from a BIA hallway. When reporters accused him of being reckless, he said, “Reckless is being silent while your people starve.” The real shock came two months later at Wounded Knee. In February 1973, tribal elders on Pine Ridge begged AIM for help after political violence erupted on the reservation. Means drove through the night with only a duffel bag, a radio, and a rifle he hoped he would never fire. When he reached Wounded Knee, federal marshals and FBI agents had already surrounded the area. Instead of retreating, he walked straight into the village and declared, “We will not leave until the government honors its own treaties.” The siege lasted seventy one days. Bullets tore through houses. Helicopters circled overhead. Food ran out. Means filmed everything with borrowed cameras so the world could see. On one night in April he crawled through a ditch under sniper fire to pull a wounded young man out of the line of fire. When someone asked why he risked his life, Means said, “If I fall, I fall for my people.” The government charged him with assault, conspiracy, and weapons violations. The trial collapsed after evidence showed the FBI had tampered with witnesses. Means walked out of court and said, “You cannot jail a nation.” People later called him controversial. That word is too small. Russell Means confronted the most powerful government on earth with nothing but his voice, his courage, and a refusal to bow. He did not seek approval. He sought justice. And he paid for it every day of his life.

“Blue Heron, Keeper of Still Waters” (as told in the way of the Anishinaabe) In the hush before dawn, Blue Heron steps through mist each movement a prayer the river understands. He does not hurry. He does not chase. The world comes to him when he is ready to see. They say his shadow touches both water and sky the bridge between all things that cannot touch themselves. When he hunts, it is not hunger that guides him, but knowing. He waits until the world is quiet enough to reveal what is meant for him. And so the old ones teach: walk as Heron walks with patience so deep it becomes its own kind of strength. For the one who learns stillness becomes the water, and the water never forgets. 🙏🙏 You can get the purchase link in the comments under each image.
