In the snowy Dakota Territory winter of 1886, two families; one Lakota, one Swedish immigrant; found themselves stranded just miles apart during the worst blizzard in a decade. The Anderssons, new to the plains, had no idea how fast the storm would come. Their oxen froze, their woodpile vanished under six feet of snow, and their baby grew weaker by the hour.
Across the frozen creek, Elk Woman of the Oglala Lakota sensed something was wrong. Her son, Wiyáka, just sixteen, had seen smoke falter at the Anderssons’ cabin. She packed pemmican, blankets, and herbs into a sled and set out into the white silence with him.
They reached the settlers just before dark. The Anderssons, near frostbite, wept in relief. Elk Woman didn’t speak English, but she moved with purpose; feeding the baby warmed broth from a horn spoon, wrapping the mother’s hands in rabbit pelts, and stoking a fire with dried buffalo dung she’d brought from home.
For six days, the Lakota family stayed with the Anderssons, teaching them how to insulate walls with snow, melt water safely, and preserve food. On the seventh day, the sky cleared, and they left without fanfare.
The Anderssons would tell that story for generations, though many neighbors never believed it. But their granddaughter eventually found a beaded sash in a box of heirlooms; marked with the Lakota word wówačhaŋtognaka: generosity.

"The villains are fairly obvious in “Flower Moon,” but Scorsese asks audiences to take a wider look at systemic racism, historical injustice and the corruptive influence of power and money, intriguingly tying together our past and present." ~ Brian Truitt,
"Gladstone, in the rare Scorsese film that gives center stage to a female character, is the emotional core here, and it's her face that stays etched in our memory."
~ Jocelyn Noveck
“This is for every little Rez kid, every little urban kid, every little Native kid out there who has a dream and is seeing themselves represented in our stories told by ourselves, in our own words..." ~ Lily Gladstone

For generations, the Blackfeet Nation told a story: their ancestors had roamed the Montana plains for nearly 18,000 years—long before settlers, maps, or fences existed.
Historians dismissed these accounts as myth or mere storytelling. Oral traditions weren’t seen as reliable history.
Then, in 2022, science finally caught up. DNA analysis revealed the Blackfeet’s lineage diverged from other Indigenous groups about 18,000 years ago, matching their ancient oral history.
This wasn’t just a minor detail—it validated a form of knowledge preserved without written records. The stories passed from elders to children survived millennia, carrying undeniable truth.
For the Blackfeet, storytelling was more than entertainment. It was a vital tool for teaching survival, preserving identity, and maintaining a deep connection to the land.
Every hill, river, and valley held memories tied to specific stories—each one anchored in reality, now confirmed by science.
This discovery challenges us to rethink how we value history and whose voices get heard. It asks: What other truths might be hidden in oral traditions around the world, waiting for us to listen?
The Blackfeet story shows that history isn’t just written in books—it lives in stories, songs, and memories passed down through generations. Maybe it’s time we all start listening more closely.

Do not tell me you have Indian blood, that you are one quarter. Don't tell me one of your grandparents was an Indian, or hand me a piece of paper from a corrupt government, with colonized laws and rules about who is, and who isn't an American Indian. Come to me with straight eyes, and say proudly that you are an Indian. No one else in America needs paperwork to prove what race they are, only the rightful owners of this land. Come to me and show me who you are. Your blood, relatives or a piece of paper does not make you an Indian. You must be willing to live with honesty, integrity, courage, respect, and always remain unselfish towards your neighbors. For these are the things, that make you an Indian..

🌎 “The Land Remembers”
The elder said:
When the blood in your veins
returns to the sea,
and the earth in your bones
returns to the ground,
the wind will whisper your name
back into the mountains.
Do not speak of owning the land,
for the land owns your breath,
your dreams,
your silence.
Long before your footsteps marked her skin,
she sang your heartbeat into being.
Long after your voice has faded,
she will hum your story in the rivers.
Listen—
the stones remember.
The trees still speak your forgotten tongue.
Each leaf is an ancestor,
each wave a memory returning home.
And when you lie once more
in the arms of soil and tide,
perhaps then,
you will remember—
this land was never yours to keep.
It is you
who belong to her.

Native Encampment
In the mid-1600's the Ojibwa east of Lake Superior began to move westward, and by the late 1770's, Ojibwa settlements circled Lake Superior. One of these settlements was located on the Kaministikwia River. Eye-witness accounts of Fort William in the early 1800's usually mention a Native encampment east of the palisade. A painting dated 1805 shows clusters of dome-shaped wigwams huddled at the south-east corner of the Fort; illustrations from the Hudson's Bay Company period (after 1821) depict conical tepees and wigwams.
These habitations reflect the culture of a people continually adapting to their environment as they had for thousands of years. Ojibwa family groups moved through these woodlands around Lake Superior in a seasonal round that included fishing, hunting, and gathering, and trade gatherings with other Native groups. With the coming of the Europeans, many Ojibwa incorporated the demands of the fur trade: trapping fur-bearing animals, and more prolonged contact with trading posts to supply pelts and other services.
The Ojibwa inhabiting the western Lake Superior region were also known as the Saulteaux, or Chippewa, while to the north were the Cree. Probably both tribes were represented at Fort William during the Rendezvous when Natives from surrounding areas came to trade their furs and exchange their labour and produce for commodities available at the Indian Shop. While most Natives departed for their hunting grounds as summer ended, some stayed behind to participate in winter activities of the fort.
During the NWC period, there were probably about 150 Ojibwa living in the Kaministikwia district. A number of Ojibwa names appear quite regularly in the Fort William transaction records, probably the members of the Ojibwa community adjacent to the fort. It is probable that they based their operations at Fort William, but continued to undertake seasonal journeys and encampments for the purpose of harvesting maple sugar, wild rice, snaring rabbits, fishing, and hunting game. One of these expeditions might last weeks or even months, so the Ojibwa population at Fort William was constantly in flux.
In addition to their own activities, the Ojibwa at Fort William supported the operation of the post. Women worked in the kitchen and canoe sheds, as well as the farm, and received payment in the form of trade goods. Men might be engaged in hunting or fishing for the NWC, and any other service in labour or expertise that the company might require..
As producers, the Ojibwa were integral to the needs of the NWC at Fort William. The transaction records show the quantity of provisions and materials supplied to the post and its personnel: bark, wattap and spruce for canoe-building, snowshoes, moccasins, skins, maple sugar, berries, wild rice, and fresh game

Ancestors in this photo survived Wounded Knee Massacre 1890 by fighting back with their bare hands the military who had guns. They threw themselves in the line of fire to hopefully save the women and children. They were shot several times over, still bleeding they were able to fight guns away and keep protecting the innocent.
