Reader Reviews
It's easy to be misinformed that the Natives were here first, the European settlers moved them out of the way, no group was diverse, and that's that. This documentary shows how more diverse and complicated matters were between the two groups. Geronimo's family was killed by Mexican soldiers, not American ones. Geronimo's band didn't want to be removed from their reservation and forced onto the land of another Apache band. That rival Apache band helped the American military to find Geronimo's group. While one American military leader acted in a supremacist fashion, the leader before him treated the Natives with relative respect. The tensions between the two racial groups were not just addressed by bloodshed, but by diplomacy as well. It's also easy to assume that Native groups were wiped out. Many were. However, this documentary shows living Apache who are proud of Geronimo. Just as Mayans still exist even as their ancient pyramids were abandoned, Natives are still here in the United States. It saddened me when a Native man asked a Native boy in "Smoke Signals," "Who is your favorite Native American hero?" and the boy replied, "No one!" This documentary adds to what is out there about Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse, Wilma Mankiller, and many other important Native American figures.
