Tzi-Kal-Tza, son of Captain William Clark, seated in field holding rifle, Montana, probably between 1866 and 1867
"The date of this man's birth was either about June, 1806, or March, 1807... He was engaged in the Nez Perce Indian War in Idaho and Montana, and was made prisoner with Chief Joseph at the Battle of Bear Paw Mountain. He was sent with Joseph and other prisoners to Indian Territory, where he died in 1878 or 1879, aged about 72 years old...During my residence in Montana I often met this half blood son of Captain Clark...With an appreciation of the historical interest which I would some day attach to this man, I persuaded him to have his photograph taken...The Hon. Granville Stuart, the first Secretary of the Historical Society of Montana, who was well acquainted with Captain Clark's son, has confirmed my declaration that this is his picture, and none other,..." -- Nathaniel Pitt Langford, St. Paul, Minnesota.

At mealtimes, the Comanche elder Niyah stressed that Comanches ate meals when they were hungry. In their old free nomadic lifestyle, the families might eat around four times in a day. Men, women, and children all ate together with the food placed on a dried rawhide in the center of the seated family. Even visitors were warmly welcomed.
During the 1930's, Mrs. John Barnes, who was a white resident living near Comanche people shared the following observation of their life and food preparation:
"All Indian houses had tepees near them . . . [T]he women built arbors which were made of poles and willow brush. Here the Indians lived through the summer. "
Of their meals, she added "Another way the beef was prepared was to cut the fat into small pieces, mix it thoroughly with sugar and a little flour, and fry it for a short while. Lots of Indians ate kidneys raw, but when cooked they wanted them cooked well done. Most of their bread was bought bread and they used crackers as bread some. Later they made bread from wheat flour called grease bread which tasted pretty good. Steak was cut into small squares, fried, and gravy was made with this meat. Indians are fond of fruit, cookies, and candy."

Beyond suffering: The Red Nation will rise and be a blessing to a sick world, a world full of unfulfilled promises, selfishness and separation. There will be a will to have a new way of seeing and thinking the colors of men who will come together under the Sacred Tree of Life, and the whole Earth will become a new circle. On that day, there will be those among the Lakota that will bring knowledge and compression of unity among all living things and young white people will come to my people to demand this wisdom. I salute the light in your eyes in which the whole Universe dwells. Because when you are in that center inside you and I am that place inside me that has to be only one..

Pocahontas was born in 1595 in Werowocomoco, Virginia. She was the daughter of Powhatan, the paramount chief of a network of tributary tribes in the Tidewater region of Virginia. Pocahontas was a nickname meaning “playful one” or “ill-behaved child.” She was also known as Matoaka. Pocahontas is famous for saving the life of Captain John Smith when he was captured by her father’s warriors. She married John Rolfe in 1614 and traveled to England with him. She died in England in 1617 at the age of 21.
