Chef Joseph ( Hin-mah-too-yah-lat-kekt )1840 - 1904
Chef des Nez Percés
"Nos pères nous ont transmis de nombreuses lois, qu'ils avaient apprises eux-mêmes de leur pères. Elles disaient de traiter les hommes comme ils nous traitent, que nous ne devions jamais rompre un accord les premiers, que c'était une honte de dire des mensonges, que seule la vérité devait être dite." Chef Joseph ❤
La tribu des Nez Percés était une nation pacifique, qui s'étendait de l'Idaho au nord de l'État de Washington. Elle a maintenu de bonnes relations avec les blancs après l'expédition de Lewis et Clark. Joseph a passé la majeure partie de son enfance dans une mission tenue par les missionnaires Chrétiens.
En 1855, le père de Chef Joseph,
Old Joseph, signa un traité avec le gouvernement, qui autorisait son peuple à rester sur les terres de leurs ancêtres. En 1863, un autre traité réduisait la surface allouée, mais Old Joseph ignora volontairement ce traité.
Young Joseph Chef Joseph succéda à son père comme chef en 1873. Les Nez Percés vivaient en bonne entente avec les blancs avant 1877.
Chef Joseph, fut connu pour sa résistance face aux tentatives du gouvernement de forcer sa tribu des Nez Percés à se rendre dans les réserves. L'épreuve de force commença en 1877.
Cette entente fut compromise à la suite de la découverte d'or sur leur terrrain de chasse dans l'Oregon. Les blancs voulurent renégocier le traité de 1863 pour prendre davantage de terre aux Indiens et les confiner dans une réserve exigüe. Il s'en suivi une guerre entre blancs et Nez Percés. Obligés de quitter "Wallowa Valley" pour une réserve dans l'Idaho. Bien entendu les Indiens furent obligés de se rendre mais après une formidable leçon de courage pour qui connaît cette histoire : environ 800 d'entre eux fuirent devant l'avancée yankee et parcoururent près de 1700 km. A la fin de cette longue fuite, Chef Joseph fut contraint de signer avec le colonel Nelson Miles la réddition de son peuple, à seulement 30 miles (48km) de la

A VERY WORTHY READ!Keanu Reeves was abandoned by his father at 3 years old and grew up with 3 different stepfathers. He is dyslexic. His dream of becoming a hockey player was shattered by a serious accident. His daughter died at birth. His wife died in a car accident. His best friend, River Phoenix, died of an overdose. His sister has leukemia.
And with everything that has happened, Keanu Reeves never misses an opportunity to help people in need. When he was filming the movie "The Lake House," he overheard the conversation of two costume assistants; One cried because he would lose his house if he did not pay $20,000 and on the same day Keanu deposited the necessary amount in the woman's bank account; He also donated stratospheric sums to hospitals.
In 2010, on his birthday, Keanu walked into a bakery and bought a brioche with a single candle, ate it in front of the bakery, and offered coffee to people who stopped to talk to him.
After winning astronomical sums for the Matrix trilogy, the actor donated more than $50 million to the staff who handled the costumes and special effects - the true heroes of the trilogy, as he called them.
He also gave a Harley-Davidson to each of the stunt doubles. A total expense of several million dollars. And for many successful films, he has even given up 90% of his salary to allow the production to hire other stars.
In 1997 some paparazzi found him walking one morning in the company of a homeless man in Los Angeles, listening to him and sharing his life for a few hours.
Most stars when they make a charitable gesture they declare it to all the media. He has never claimed to be doing charity, he simply does it as a matter of moral principles and not to look better in the eyes of others.
This man could buy everything, and instead every day he gets up and chooses one thing that cannot be bought: To be a good person.
Keanu Reeves’ father is of Native Hawaiian descent

Picture of Quanah Parker and two of his wives, Topay and Chonie.Quanah Parker was the last Chief of the Commanches and never lost a battle to the white man. His tribe roamed over the area where Pampas stands. He was never captured by the Army, but decided to surrender and lead his tribe into the white man's culture, only when he saw that there was no alternative.
His was the last tribe in the Staked Plains to come into the reservation system.
Quanah, meaning "fragrant," was born about 1850, son of Comanche Chief Peta Nocona and Cynthia Ann Parker, a white girl taken captive during the 1836 raid on Parker's Fort, Texas. Cynthia Ann Parker was recaptured, along with her daughter, during an 1860 raid on the Pease River in northwest Texas. She had spent 24 years among the Comanche, however, and thus never readjusted to living with the whites again.
She died in Anderson County, Texas, in 1864 shortly after the death of her daughter, Prairie Flower. Ironically, Cynthia Ann's son would adjust remarkably well to living among the white men. But first he would lead a bloody war against them.
Quanah and the Quahada Comanche, of whom his father, Peta Nocona had been chief, refused to accept the provisions of the 1867 Treaty of Medicine Lodge, which confined the southern Plains Indians to a reservation, promising to clothe the Indians and turn them into farmers in imitation of the white settlers.
Knowing of past lies and deceptive treaties of the "White man", Quanah decided to remain on the warpath, raiding in Texas and Mexico and out maneuvering Army Colonel Ronald S. Mackenzie and others. He was almost killed during the attack on buffalo hunters at Adobe Walls in the Texas Panhandle in 1874. The U.S. Army was relentless in its Red River campaign of 1874-75. Quanah's allies, the Quahada were weary and starving.
Mackenzie sent Jacob J. Sturm, a physician and post interpreter, to solicit the Quahada's surrender. Sturm found Quanah, whom he called "a young man of much influence w

YELLOW TAIL (Hawk with Yellow Tail Feathers), rare and magnificent hand-colored portrait, likely 1905-11. He wore a porcupine hair roach. He was father to Robert Yellowtail, who became an important leader of Montana’s Crow (Apsáalooke).At age 13, Robert Yellowtail was sent to California’s Sherman Institute, graduating from the high school at age 17. In 1910, Chief Plenty Coup asked Robert, age 21, to return home and help fight against efforts to open the Reservation to White homesteaders. In 1934, Yellowtail was appointed as Agency Superintendent, the first Native to hold the post.
The hand coloring of the photo was precisely done on a 3.25 x 4 inch glass lantern slide.

Spotted Elk, nicknamed Big Foot (Si Thanka), born about 1826 and died on December 29, 1890, is a Native American leader of the Sioux Lakota Miniconjous tribe.
Big Foot and his people live on the Cheyenne River Reserve, and were the most excited believers of the Ghost Dance ceremony. Famine and misery they found in their reserve, during their final defeat in 1889, led the Lakotas to find refuge in the Ghost Dance Messianic Renewal message. The movement rapidly swept through the entire camp, alerting local Indian agents. Several dancers were removed, others recalled by troops.
At the Standing Rock Reservation, where Sitting Bull was suspected of encouraging Ghost Dance to provoke an uprising, bloodshed broke out when Indian police killed Sitting Bull during his arrest. Many men from the late old chief's tribe then escape to Big Foot.
The latter decided to lead his people away from the violence he encountered in Standing Rock and fled south to Pine Ridge, hoping to find safety. Sick, Big Foot was out of war, and was carrying a white flag when military patrols captured them on December 28, 1890. That night Big Foot and his tribe camped out by Wounded Knee cove, surrounded by soldiers.
The next morning, soldiers set up machine guns around the camp and began confiscating weapons from the Indians. When gunfire accidentally started, soldiers opened fire, and within minutes, killed more than 370 Lakota. Then they chased the women and children, to kill them several miles away from the site of the first confrontation.

Ernie LaPointe is a Lakota Native American who claimed to be the great-grandson of the legendary Sitting Bull - the Hunkpapa Lakota leader who routed General Custer and 5 of his companies at the battle of Little Bighorn. His claims were proven true by a DNA analysis, which compared Laponte's DNA with that found on Sitting Bull's scalp lock. Finding a way to extract usable DNA from the scalp lock took 14 years, as the specimen was extremely degraded. This was the first time in history that ancient DNA confirmed a familial relationship between a living and historical individual. LaPointe based his claims on birth and death certificates, as well as his family tree. Ernie is now looking to further his efforts towards the reburial of Sitting Bull, who he believes to be buried in Mobridge, South Dakota, a place which he claims has no historical relation to Sitting Bull.
