1.0 out of 5 stars Don't waste your time, February 8, 2004

This review is from: Native Americans: Tribal People of the Northwest [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This video presents little concrete information regarding the natives of North America. It is a shame that entire cultures are reduced to such mind numbing and unscholarly commentary. Please review the numerous books available on this subject and enjoy something a bit more knowledgeable. There is so much more than the sound bites of this cheap video.

This review is from: Native Americans: Northeast [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The information on the Iroquois, particularly the Seneca is good information. The sources were authorities on what they spoke of. One of the main reasons I bought this video was to hear what John Mohawk had to say. He passed away this last year. His education, both in and out of school was a benefit to the Seneca. John held a lot of knowledge, and he was always eager to share what he knew. He helped bridge the gap, for two generations, between what was and what is. He will be missed. Nya-weh, John.
