  1. I would love to see a video about wolverines in the history and folklore of the natives, as I'm only aware of one legend where the wolverine is depicted as the trickster

  2. This has to be one of the most intriguing with an easy to follow timeline though the video covers a variety of leadership characters along the way. This discovery with geographic maps with aboriginal groups it's covers is fascinating.
    Thank you to all the minds hands and hearts it took to make this historic coverage to happen. πŸ†πŸ’―β€

  3. I genuinely believe this is one of the big reasons why Us indigenous were forsaken. We had entities that came along and gave us gifts of knowledge and magic but in receiving these, we inadvertently worshipped them.
    Some of these traditions genuinely were dark.

  4. The Yuwipi, (You-We-Pe) is a spirit calling ceremony similar to the An-nish-in-aabe / Cree Shaking Tent ceremonies performed by Sioux and Cheyenne medicine men. Alice Fletcher wrote the first written account of the Lakota Yuwipi ceremony in the 1880's while collecting Indigenous music for the Library of Congress. Alice Fletcher wrote that Lakota, Cheif Sitting Bull was at the ceremony and the Yuwipi man was stuck upside down in the tepee smokehole at the end and it took several people to help him get down. The holyman gave her a detailed description of the meanings behind the ceremony, the songs. Linguist-anthropologist, William J. Powers published two contemporary books from information gathered from living with the Lakota, Plenty Wolf family in the 1960's.
    "Yuwipi; Vision & Experience in Oglala Ritual" 1984

    "Sacred Language; The Nature of Supernatural Discourse in Lakota" 1986.

    This is the first hand account by a modern Shaking Tent practitioner.
