Treaty day June 1st 1868. Our Navajo people gathered the delegation that would sign and represent all our Diné. 12 people put their mark and entered into a peace treaty with the United States of America.

A treaty that would guarantee our people would fight no more. But instead live peacefully with the whites. Our Navajo people would allow them to construct railroads and pass through the land untouched.

In exchange for this our people could return to their land. Their home. At least a portion of it. Some land was taken… Taken because it had silver and gold. Our people also returned home knowing they would be able to hunt any unoccupied land. Their children would get education opportunities and learn from the whites. They would also be given livestock and healthcare.

The terms were discussed… Three different languages used to come up with the final treaty. Navajo Spanish and English. Today the treaty is an important document. It shows the world our people were not conquered instead they entered into an agreement with the mother nation. Maybe hoping to be equals... one day.

In this video Navajo Historian Wally Brown shares about the treaty. What the old ones used to say about it. How have our people lived up to it and how has the United States lived up to it.

    Of our divine father desires that we love each other. The way he loves us.
  • “The most terrifying force of death comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left Alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. The moment the Men who wanted to be left alone are forced to fight back, it is a form of suicide. They are literally killing off who they used to be. Which is why, when forced to take up violence, these Men who wanted to be left alone, fight with unholy vengeance against those who murdered their former lives. They fight with raw hate, and a drive that cannot be fathomed by those who are merely play-acting at politics and terror. TRUE TERROR will arrive at these people’s door, and they will cry, scream, and beg for mercy… but it will fall upon the deaf ears of the Men who just wanted to be left alone.”

    Wicked vid but sorry to say most Americans don't have a clue on the true America was born and I would say it was the native ppl who are true Americans 👍

    Great advice for every citizen, not just Dine.

    My grandmother was cherokee. She spoke tsalagi. As a young boy, I spent summers with her and my illegal alien Norwegian grandfather while my parents traveled. Grandpa was an archaeologist. And we spent summers walking in the desert looking for artifacts. I listen to my grandmother's stories and lessons. The one lesson that has always served well was when she told me to always look at the ground in front of my feet while I walk. You will never know what you will find that others walk over. I have found thousands of dollars over the years. And too many other treasures to count.
