| A Canadian Cree Indian |
When I was a young boy, long ago, I had a rather romantic view of the North American Indians. They were either the wild heroes or - maybe more often - the villains of the comics and adventure books I, and probably most other boys of my age, liked to read.
When I now look at these early 1920s photographs of North American natives, I see proud, but often also very sad faces.

ReplyDeleteVon den Stämmen des Ostens, gibt es nur wenig Fotos und wenn, dann in Kleidung der Weissen. Die Sac & Fox bilden da eine Ausnahme.
DeleteWhat about the Cherokee
DeleteVon den Cherokee existieren Fotos, wenn auch mit Kleidung der Weissen. Man darf nicht vergessen dass ca. am 1840 die Indianer des Ostens besiegt waren. Die Seminolen in Florida wurden 1858 besiegt. Fotografien von Indianern kamen ca. ab 1850 auf.
Deleteby 1700 there were mostly remnants of those great tribes remained in the east Due to doc illness war and assimilation.
ReplyDeleteI look in their eyes and try to imagine what they have seen. Beautiful images of such harsh lives
ReplyDeleteEs una alegria de poder conocer a las civilizaciones que evitaron en USA, más no la típica tonta y escupida historia que cuentan en escuelas y colegios, que Cristobal Colon descubrió America? Es la historia más falaz encelada en escuelas,
ReplyDelete¿se encuentra bien?
DeleteThe reason native people have sad faces in because what happened to them many years ago and even nowadays.
ReplyDeleteI'm half Navajo and half Scotch/ Irish,
I lived on the Navajo Resavation.
All my older Navajo family is gone now.
What do you mean nowadays? Indians got it made today. No taxes,casinos,free everything.
DeleteCan’t believe you actually wrote this! You are so totally full of shit! Think if your family and ancestors had every thing they own taken from them. Yeah boy that’s the life!
DeleteSome people are so ignorant! I feel bad for there stupidity! Seriously
DeleteThere comes a point in everyone’s life when he/she must take responsibility for their own future and stop blaming their troubles on what happened to their ancestors generations ago.
DeleteLove these photos. I would like to share my, family's keepsakes.
