Thomas Little Shell III (1830-1901) known as "Little Shell" or "Little Clam" but recorded as Ase-anse or Es-sence, was a chief of a band of the Ojibwa (Chippewa) tribe in the second half of the nineteenth century, when the Anishinaabeg (Ojibwa peoples) had a vast territory ranging from southwestern Canada into the northern tier of the United States, from the Dakotas and into Montana. During the 1850s, the United States began to negotiate with the Anishinaabeg of North Dakota to get them to cede their land in exchange for payment and settlement on a reservation. Little Shell was one of the Anishinaabe signatories of the 1863 Treaty of Old Crossing, which ceded Anishinaabe land in Minnesota and North Dakota. In 1864 he refused to negotiate with the United States further about ceding more land. For almost another 30 years, Little Shell refused to negotiate with the United States over land. Together the Anishinaabeg occupied an area of over 63,000,000 acres. Much of that land was in North Dakota and South Dakota, but also included Pembina land in Montana, which may have reached all the way to the Rocky Mountains. Around 1880, Little Shell moved his band from southern Canada to the Turtle Mountains of north-central North Dakota, where he protested encroachment by Americans and the government's lack of concern for Chippewa land title. Because of persistent food shortages, he and his band hunted buffalo as far as Montana and southern Saskatchewan during the late 1880s. When they returned to the Turtle Mountains in the early 1890s, they faced a series of events that led to the exile of Little Shell's and other Chippewa people from the Dakotas.

In 1892 Little Shell met with American representatives and attempted to reach an agreement about ceding his people's remaining land. European-American immigrants did not wait for treaties but squatted on Native lands in Montana, North Dakota and South Dakota.

Little Shell attempted to sell his remaining lands for $1.00 per acre and be allowed to have at least 10,000,000 acres of remaining lands in Montana, North Dakota and South Dakota set aside as a Reservation. The Americans offered to pay 10 cents an acre (which became known as the infamous "Ten-Cent Treaty") and refused to set aside the 10,000,000 acres reservation. No agreement was reached.

Sitting Bull was one of the revered leaders of the Sioux tribe. He was born around 1831 in the area between North Dakota and South Dakota, USA.

Sitting Bull became the chief of the Hunkpapa Sioux tribe in 1868. He participated in many battles to protect his tribe's land from US government invasion.

In 1876, during the Battle of Little Bighorn, Sitting Bull led the Sioux and Cheyenne tribes to fight against the US army and defeat General Custer in a famous battle. However, after this victory, the US army increased pressure to suppress the Sioux tribe, and he was forced to leave his land.

After the Battle of Little Bighorn, Sitting Bull lived in adventure and evaded government pursuit. However, he returned to public life and became a key figure in the Sioux tribe's final resistance in the early 20th century.

Sitting Bull was not only famous as a talented and dedicated leader of his tribe, but also as a prophet and religious figure of the tribe. He helped preserve the culture and traditions of the Sioux tribe and always emphasized the connection between humans and nature.

However, in 1890, the US government attacked the Sioux tribe at Pine Ridge Reservation, where Sitting Bull was living. He was killed on December 15, 1890 during this attack. After his death, he became an icon of Native American resistance.

‘We Were So Far Away’ On view June 7 – November 27, 2022
- The Vancouver Maritime Museum is pleased to host this travelling exhibition that explores the residential school experiences of the Inuit. - The Inuit experience was unique and in part because of rapid social and political change in the North at the start of the 20th century. We Were So Far Away uses first-person narratives and archival images to tell stories of the Inuit residential school experience. The exhibition highlights the stories of eight Inuit residential school survivors. Each survivor talks about their experience in their own words.

Before I was six years old, my grandparents and my mother had taught me that if all the green things that grow were taken from the earth, there could be no life. If all the four-legged creatures were taken from the earth, there could be no life. If all the winged creatures were taken from the earth, there could be no life. If all our relatives who crawl and swim and live within the earth were taken away, there could be no life. But if all the human beings were taken away, life on earth would flourish. That is how insignificant we are.”Russell Means, Oglala Lakota Nation (November 10, 1939 – October 22, 2012).

𝙑𝙞𝙤𝙡𝙖 𝙅𝙞𝙢𝙪𝙡𝙡𝙖 (1878 /1966)
One of the most notable and respected women of Prescott, Viola Jimulla, was the first Chieftess of the Yavapai-Prescott Indian Tribe. She led the tribe for 26 years
She was born Sica-tuva, meaning "born quickly" on the San Carlos Apache Indian Reservation around June of 1878. While attending Rice Arizona Indian School, she took the name Viola.
Around 1900 when the Yavapai were allowed to return to their homelands, she moved to the Prescott vicinity to live with her family. In 1901, she married Sam "Red Ants" Jimulla and became an active part of the tribal, as well as the Prescott, community.
Viola's husband was appointed chief of the Yavapai-Prescott Tribe by the Commissioner of Indian Affairs in the mid-1930s and was officially elected chief by the tribe. After Sam's accidental death in 1940, Viola became Chieftess of the Prescott Yavapais, thus becoming the first Chieftess in the North American West. Viola guided her tribe with wisdom and kindness until her death in 1966. Her leadership helped the Yavapais achieve better living conditions and bridged the Indian and Anglo cultures. Viola's personal strengths and skills helped her people adapt and grow with the surrounding Anglo community. Although she formed a bridge between the two cultures, she still honored the traditions of her tribe. ❤

February 17th, 1909, Geronimo dies of pneumonia at age 80, while still a captive of war at Fort Sill, Oklahoma. The great Apache Resistance leader leaning against a tree.
~ "We are vanishing from the earth, yet I cannot think we are useless or Usen would not have created us. He created all tribes of men and certainly had a righteous purpose in creating each. For each tribe of men Usen created He also made a home. In the land created for any particular tribe He placed whatever would be best for the welfare of that tribe. When Usen created the Apaches He also created their homes in the West. He gave to them such grain, fruits, and game as they needed to eat. To restore their health when disease attacked them He made many different herbs to grow. He taught them where to find these herbs, and how to prepare them for medicine. He gave them a pleasant climate and all they needed for clothing and shelter was at hand. Thus it was in the beginning: the Apaches and their homes each created for the other by Usen himself. When they are taken from these homes they sicken and die.
How long will it be until it is said, there are no Apaches?" ~ Geronimo, 1906.
Geronimo often spoke of his desire for his people's eventual return to their ancestral homelands in Arizona. Tragically, his life ended at Fort Sill, Oklahoma far away from the beloved lands he had been forcefully taken from and imprisoned by the United States Government for defending. ~ Bedonkohe Apache leader Geronimo [Goyaałé], Mescalero-Chiricahua.

This is Matrix movie star Keanu Reeves.
His father abandoned him at 3 years old and grew up with 3 different stepfathers. He is dyslexic. His dream of becoming a hockey player was shattered by a serious accident. His daughter died at birth. His wife died in a car accident. His best friend, River Phoenix, died of an overdose. His sister battled leukemia.
No bodyguards, no luxury houses. Keanu lives in an ordinary apartment likes wandering around town and is often seen riding a subway in NYC.
When filming the movie "The Lake House," he overheard a conversation between two costume assistants, one crying as he would lose his house if he did not pay $20,000 - On the same day, Keanu deposited the necessary amount in his bank account. In his career, he has donated large sums to hospitals including $75 million of his earnings from “The Matrix” to charities.
In 2010, on his birthday, Keanu walked into a bakery & bought a brioche with a single candle, ate it in front of the bakery, and offered coffee to people who stopped to talk to him.
In 1997 some paparazzi found him walking one morning in the company of a homeless man in Los Angeles, listening to him and sharing his life for a few hours.
Sometimes the ones most broken from the inside are the ones most willing to help others.
This man could buy everything, and instead every day he gets up and chooses one thing that cannot be bought

Portrait of a Wasco youth of the Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs, Oregon in 1903.
I wish I knew to what special occasion his face was painted. This young man would belong to the same tribe as Hash-Nash-Shut.
Wasco comes from the word Wacq! ó, meaning "cup" or "small bowl," is the name of a distinctive bowl-shaped rock near the tribe's primary historic village. They traditionally lived on the south bank of the Columbia River. This tribe, with the Wishram (also known as Tlakluit and Echeloot), on the north side of the river, were the easternmost branches of the Chinookan family.
In 1822, their population was estimated to be 900. They joined in the treaty of 1855 and were removed to the Warm Springs Reservation, Oregon, where about only 200 now reside. The Wasco occupied several villages, some of these being used only for wintering during the salmon runs. (via Access Genealogy: Indian Tribal Records)

One Bull stated he had learned a great deal from his uncle Sitting Bull and being in company with him in all his uncles ceremonies. He is in a position to give authentic information when requested. In the olden time when Sitting Bull Band of Lakota used to live their own way, they used to exercise a lot of ceremonies in asking special favors from the Great Spirit. One of these is the "Dreamy Cry" -- Hanble Ceyapi. The night before the Custer Fight, Sitting Bull went through with the ceremony. He went to the high hill east of the Little Big Horn River, at the place where the Custer monument now stands, all painted up, carrying
with him such offerings as the canunpa, bits of to***co wrapped up in skin and tied on well prepared cherry sticks and a buffalo Robe. As soon as he had reached the pinnacle of the hill he presented the offerings in a formal way to the Great Spirit, he in a standing position, began to chant the following prayer. White Man's history stated that during
the battle of Custer he was making medicine.
"Wakan tanka unsimalaye Le canunpa kin oyate un cicu. Anpetu wi, hanhepi
wi, make kin wicahpi kin, tatuye oinajin t**a kin, hena el ohinni yaun. Ate, Oyate kin ni wica yaye cici la Omakiyaye, unsimalaye un ni pi uncinpi.
Wawahtani cola waokipa otehika waninlya aw an unyankapi ye. Unsimalaye."
Great Spirit, pity me; in the name of the tribe I offer you this peace-pipe
Wherever, the sun, the moon, the earth, the four (cardinal) points of the
winds, there you are always. Father save the Tribe, I beg you. Pity me, we wish to live. Guard us against all misfortunes or calamities. Pity me.

One Bull sang the following song that Sitting Bull often sang at Fox
Society gatherings.
Koskalaka kin omakiyapi ye, omakiyapo Ye
Young men help me do help me
He makoce kin tewahila ca hecamon wahe
My country, I love so I'm doing this (fighting in this manner)

I got this and other stories from "I tervoews by Paul High Bull"
He was commisioned to record stories and songs pertaining to Sitting Bull in 1926. He also interviewed my grandpa Dewey Beard. They sang songs for him which were written down (no audio).
