Into the West

Post by LostNFound »

I would like to post this 6 part mini series that portrays the taking of a culture, the devastation of a sovereign peoples through greed and fear. This still goes on today all over the world. I will try this again. This is a movie yet falls to the documentary side, IMO. Very well done and does portray a truth.

Into the West - Part 6 (Ghost Dance)

I tried to get the videos to load but they kept coming up with the first part only so you can just pick the link and the show comes up.
This is a very touching deep teared movie, Was to me anyway. One can definitely see the progression of devastation wrought by greedy, soulless men.

Thank you Steven ...

We started to watch Dances With Wolves the other night and just turned it off as it grew disturbing. How any people can so desecrate such a sacred way of life is beyond true comprehension and the same story is still being wrecked upon our Earth. We will watch this series as once again it needs to be said, those who don't know history are bound to repeat it.

Much love,
Christine

Ah, so this is that teary eyed story you mentioned you were watching. Thank you Steven. Just by the titles I see some familiars.
