History at The OK Corral

    • 4 days ago

    Interesting insight, and quite alright for once to hear a narrator not using the plural S-ending with the tribal names. However, it would be even more interesting if the tribe's own names were established and used further throughout the presentation. Also, the term 'Squaw' is probably believed to be outdated, and surely regarded as offensive by many indigenous peoples, for several reasons. It originally means 'woman', alright, but only in the Algonquian languages. Since the basic language for this presentation is English, why not just stick to 'woman'? The same should go with 'sioux', which actually is a short term for snake or enemy. Using and understanding the right terms is complex, but how would it sound if 'Yankee' was used as a basic for 'American', not to mention 'Gringo'?

    This is why the native Indians lost. inter tribal hatred, sometimes centuries old. Tecumseh tried to bridge their stupidity. And it was a totally different world then..

    I’d love to see stories of caddos, chief George Washington(sho-ee-tat) lead an all native confederate force during the civil war.

    Or maybe some Kiowa tribal heroes such as chief white bear (satanta) or Lone wolf! All have many great stories! Ah-ho

    I decided to play a drinking game while I watch this. Whenever some one is “cut down” I chug a beer and when some one is “ensconced” I take a shot of tequila. Pray for my liver.

    You should make a video about the sandbar fight.

    Dude I never thought I’d find such easily consumable and deep cut Indian history like you do it here. Bravo. I’ve been a YT addict for 15 years, and your among the best I’ve seen.

    Quite good and honest storytelling, with the gravitas in the delivery that the subject deserves. Thank you for another fine take.

    It’d be “prisoners forced to fight.” I bet autocorrect messed that up. Does that all the time.

    I lived very near where the last great Indian battle took place. It was near Trenton Nebraska and is still called Massacre Canyon to this day. It was between the Sioux and Pawnee.
