In a part of the United States with more than 17,000 years of human history, cultural preservation advocate Tracie Revis is working to turn the Ocmulgee Mounds into Georgia's first national park and preserve. This park would be co-managed by the Muscogee (Creek) Nation, bringing the tribal voice back to an area they were forcibly removed from 200 years ago. Revis explores the complex feelings of caring for this land and shows how it's fostering healing in return.

I know the our role is protect the culture for descendent. It can give them the information about our wisdom. Based on this I can understand what you want to do. I also want to protect our regional culture for a long time. Unfortunately the society was change rapidly and some of the important residue was lost. In this video we need to remind what is the main attention we need to serve and shield it.

What is a historic land? A moment you decide in history? And at what point are you part of that tribe or not? Because there is no way she’s even close to 50% from that specific tribe… and all those tribes started from somewhere… that’s just how history goes everywhere. Or you think that tribes have been settling everywhere around the globe, called dibs on a land, then reproduced only between themselves and have never conquered or been conquered by their neighbours?

@@augustinf it’s a whole complex thing that changes with time and people have different definitions. Legally they were recognised as separate entities to the USA and Federal government, in this case that’s the starting point, not their ancestors prior but from the second their treaties were signed. Like a bit of a similar thing would be that there’s a reason nations are only nations if someone else recognises them aka Somaliland.

Why are tourist sites already owned by some tribes so expensive? People have complained about their poor management too - unsanitary restrooms, unexpected charges for forced picture-taking, uncharacteristic of usual tourist sites in US. I hope that won't happen in any new national park if national park breaks its rule and allows it to be managed by some local tribes.

try reading "Surviving Genocide" by Professor Jeffrey Ostler - he's on youtube also. The first part of a sweeping two-volume history of the devastation brought to bear on Indian nations by U.S. expansion “An elegant, organized narrative of the United States’ dispossession of Native lands east of the Mississippi. . . . A remarkable book in its breadth and scope.”-Ashley Riley Sousa, Canadian Journal of History “Intense and well-researched, . . . ambitious, . . . magisterial. . . . Surviving Genocide sets a bar from which subsequent scholarship and teaching cannot retreat.”-Peter Nabokov, New York Review of Books In this book, the first part of a sweeping two-volume history, Jeffrey Ostler investigates how American democracy relied on Indian dispossession and the federally sanctioned use of force to remove or slaughter Indians in the way of U.S. expansion. He charts the losses that Indians suffered from relentless violence and upheaval and the attendant effects of disease, deprivation, and exposure. This volume centers on the eastern United States from the 1750s to the start of the Civil War. An authoritative contribution to the history of the United States’ violent path toward building a continental empire, this ambitious and well-researched book deepens our understanding of the seizure of Indigenous lands, including the use of treaties to create the appearance of Native consent to dispossession. Ostler also documents the resilience of Native people, showing how they survived genocide by creating alliances, defending their towns, and rebuilding their communities.

It's about playing the cards to get something they may or may not have held and for how long? Well one can't really say as they didn't have written language or weren't too far past the stone age in tech till the European settlers came and brought all that forward. It's a bit easier when you can make your history whatever you want it to be or as you advertise outward. There's a great clip in a doc where some chiefs are discussing with a US general about conquering and he laid out how they did it to other tribal communities and so on and so on and to understand this is nothing different with the exception this is the US military and government and it ends now.

They don't believe in individuals only land as much. It's a community thing. The tribe has a territory, and the territory provides everything that tribe needs. And while that might have been true 300 years ago if they choose not to collectively own their land so be it.

Good talk but parts are definitely talked to through a certain lens. These tribal groups and communities, not nations by today standards, were prinative nomadic groups with no writtrn language, metal work, masonry, agriculture, farming, permanent civilization building that was all brought to them. When you take peoples hubdreds of years forward in all ways it can be a bit painful, as it was, but the benfits are they live in the most advanced, prosperous, and powerful country in the history of our civilization. Ask yourself who built the country and builds it forward. The actual stories and history should definitely be documented and shared, at the local level for their communities. Again, at most, these groups are native communities, villages, and at mlst towns by all standards and build up that way with the history and stories there, same as other places. Theres more to this but at a high level the points are made. Did I miss anything? At the highlevel details above.

I wonder who your people fought to claim your land. :l Claiming all tribes were at war is just unproven by any historical record. Some were extremely violent, most were just trying to feed themselves. They lived off the land mostly white people decided was now theirs, so yeah, some of them fought for resources largely due to the English/French. Should I just assume your great great grandfather was a violent pos because white people killed millions of people that look like her? I'm pretty sure that's just a racist assumption, exactly like the one you made about her people.

The facts are the native communities and villages, not nations, where primative by ways of civilization building and prior to European settlement and full nation building that brought about thr USA, similar to canada. People need to speak out more to the facts and matters of, as what needs to be discussed and not just "stories" but facts of. Same to her comment on the schools, in many cases they weren't bad for these communities and many to most sent their kids there and signed off on it. This as well is being misunderstood and misinformed all around Canada and there is even a book out that details much of this that is trying to he banned by the left and liberals, and most native communities as it opposes their narrative. Do your own research and form your own opinions but most of what's being marched around is not true.

This sort of misinformation is very harmful not only to our nation as a whole, but especially to those of us with mixed ancestry. The so-called "Native Americans" are not indigenous to this continent and are not even the first inhabitants. The FIRST inhabitants were the European Solutreans and they were here millennia before the Johnny-come-lately Asiatic invaders came walking across what is now the Bering Strait. The European Solutrean culture, the "Pre-Clovis" people, had been terribly weakened by the events at the start of the Younger Dryas and were gradually pushed south and east by the Asians, with their last territory being the Florida site of Windover about 5000BC. Do not claim that the Europeans took the land of the Native Americans. Europeans were here first and only retook their ancestral lands. The influx of Europeans starting in the 16th Century was just the return of the same people whose ancestors had owned the land before it was taken by the Asian migrants, the colonizers who now call themselves "Native Americans". European descendants! Don't be brainwashed with a false sense of guilt! Follow the science, follow the facts!
