5.0 out of 5 stars Four outstanding Native American documentaries, August 31, 2010

This review is from: Trail of Tears - A Native American Documentary Collection (DVD)

I was prompted to review these four outstanding documentaries on two discs simply to let people know what the discs contain. The first disc is 105 minutes long and deals with the Cherokee 'Trail of Tears' which I have already highly recommended (see my other reviews). The second disc has 'Black Indians: An American Story' (52 mins); 'Native American Healing in the 21st century' (52 minutes); and 'Our spirits Don't Speak English: Indian Boarding School' (53 minutes). All are essential viewing for students of Native American history and in particular that of the Cherokee Nation. All are historically accurate, informative and the discs are outstanding value.

Though I had read about the trail of tears (cherokee forced relocation to steal their very well developed farmland and homes), it was nice to see depicted on the screen the life style and changes this group had made to conform to the white invasion. They probably were too well off and brought on the never ending greed of the local whites. Very informative film and also entertaining.

This review is from: Trail of Tears - A Native American Documentary Collection (DVD)

Trail of Tears - A Native American Documentary Collection is a good account of what happened before and after Removal of American Indians so Southern Georgia could steal their farms and begin the plantations of Slavery in the American Soutland. The legacy of theft from one ethnic native by European Immigrants turned southern gentlemen so proud of their accomplishments. America should be proud and saddened that we have this in our proud history. I have some Cheorkee in my blood line, thus I felt the need to see what this view would give me to account for what has happened. I have other accounts that corrispond and support this version of history. So Sad.
