JD, Two things come to mind: (1) I _love_ how the Hopi by-and-large refuse to literally-translate their names, especially their surnames. Sure, we English speakers may get the pronunciation wrong, but those Hopi surnames just sound … cool. Unique. Special. Just like names like Giuliano and other Italian were unique-sounding 100 years ago. (2) We don't demand Ms. Hana Yamashita word-for-word translate _her_ name and then start _insisting_ on calling her, "Flower Under Mountain," now, do we? And if someone did that, we'd call that person an a%%hole, and rightfully so! No, we call her "Hana", or if we're being polite, "Ms. Ya-ma-shee-tah". Or if we're _really decent, nice people,_ we learn that it's pronounced, "Yamashta", and we call her that. *_Because that shows respect._*   So, why do we insist on word-for-word translating Indigenous people's names instead of learning the correct way of saying them? Oh right, because we whites _still_ see Indigenous North-Americans as wildlife, not as people. 😠😡 That crap's gotta stop. BTW: I practice your name when I hear you say it in your videos, because I want to get it right to show you _respect._ I do the same with my South-Asian and East-Asian collegues. BTW2: Names are important. I grew up on Long Island in a large extended Italian-American family, and there were lots of cousins with the name "John". In conversation, to tell us apart, all of the "John"-relatives had their last name tacked on. Except for me, because my grandfather _always_ called me by my first and middle name. So, that's what all of my Mom's cousins, aunts, and uncles all called me, too. My father's parents always called me by my first and middle initial.   So, I assoicate hearing my initials with my paternal grandparents, with that part of my family, and with their love. And I associate hearing my first and middle name together with my [numerous] maternal relatives, and with the love from that part of my family. And I've even told people who've married in, "You can call me, <first+middle-name>, you're family now."   Notice that I'm not giving my middle name. That's because of the meaning it has to me, because I only let family call me that. So I guard it jealously.   And that's my point - _names are _*_important,_* and if you're called something _only_ by family, or _only_ within your own culture, and you want to preserve that association, everyone _should respect that._

My family was there, got pushed back to El Paso before coming back with de Vargas. Now our blood runs together. We fight like conquistadors but have the morals and respect of that of the Puebloan.

5:10 Don't we have, like, actual documentation from Spanish & US records reporting the migration of the Navajo into the 4-corners area? I also know, just from my own linguistics classes, that (1) the Navajo language is an oddball, southernmost branch of the Na-Dene Language Family [which is huge and mainly in northern Canada]; (2) The Hopi language is the eccentric cousin at the northern edge of the Uto-Aztecan Language Family [also a big Language Family]. Anyone claiming Navajo and Hopi being somehow connected just because you both currently live in the same area is like those people who think Japan and China are really all the same culture, just because they're next door to each other and _one of_ Japan's writing systems came from 8th Century China.

So, I'm from an early-20th-Century Immigrant family, but I still like to keep abreast of Indigenous things. I got hooked on CBC programs about Indigenous matters and concerns, even though I'm in the US.   So, that's why I instantly loved the term, "First Nations," when I first heard it on a CBC program. It can't be manipulated or mangled like, "Native American," can, and it puts the point down _sharply:_ You guys were *_here FIRST,_* and you _were and are _*_NATIONS._* Just because the white invaders didn't have the maps doesn't mean the borders didn't exist. Oh, BTW: As a "white person," I want to point something out: White people are _indirectly_ and _subconsciously_ taught to hear "primitive" before the word "tribe", any time "tribe" is used. And there's no more obvious place to the truth of this than how we whites use the word "tribe" when talking about Europe … _we _*_DON'T._* For example, the ancient Romans originall organized themselves according to what, anthropologically, are the same as tribes. But we never call them "Roman tribes" - we use the Latin word for it: "gens". Do we refer to the 5th-Century invaders of Britania as the Saxon _tribe,_ the Angle _tribe,_ and the Jute _tribe?_ *_No_* … we us any other term but "tribe", even though they were, arguably, Germanic tribes. I will 100% support you guys if/when you start demanding to be called Nations and not dengrated by being called "tribes".

I agree. I really wish the government changed the term indian to indigenous at least when referring to us.

And? Explain the COCK😅

His “Indian” name is Wakan Gli

Fascinating

Hugely informative. I had always heard that sum of the Isleta people had to flee along with the Spanish because they were loyal to the Spanish.. did not know how connected Onate was.

Hi JD I’m the guy that yelled down to you at your village asking if you were the youtuber. I had lots of fun at the dances. Thank you for taking your time to make educational videos it is appreciated!

I bet that woman was pist too.

0:17 Gotta feed the tea pets! 😁

Thank you for this.

I am looking for my Hopi friends from Thomas Elementary (Flagstaff) 1987. Older sister, younger brother and younger sister. Have missed you over the last 37 years. Would be in early 40's now. They left the school in the middle of the year and I never got to say goodbye

Last name poliyuma or something, don't know or pollyuma sounds like that

Very sad.

albinism is so beautiful, you are very handsome sir

Knew all of that .

I’m late to the party but thank you for this 😭😭

Another thing about wheels on suitcases: You can _walk faster_ through an airport. Which means _I'm_ not in your way lugging around my 80 lbs of suitcase when you're trying to get to your gate, Mr. PeopleWereTougherMan. I also hear a lot of homophobia in his, "pEoPlE wErE tOuGhEr," in the past statement. He thinks because he couldn't see gay men, they didn't exist, and since he sees more gay men now [because we're Done hiding in the closet], he thinks "pEoPlE aRe WeAkEr" because he thinks "gay-man==woman==weak+inferior+frail+<insert-Victorian-BS-here>". Guys like this have the _frailest_ of masculinity, because they've crafted an identity based on what they're not: false-images of other identities. When _real_ gay men show up, and we're _not_ anything like the lies they think they are, suddenly a cornerstone of their definition of "masculinity" falls apart.

That looks like a temmoku glaze on the outside of that cup.

4:30 A difference of note between tea and coffee: While how much leaf you use determines how strong or weak your tea is, with coffee, the amount of grounds you use _does not_ determine how strong it is. What determines the strength of coffee is the _roast_ and the _brewing method._ The *_amount *_** of coffee grounds is **_*determined entirely_* by the brewing method. Use too little coffee grounds, and you won't end up with weaker coffee, you'll end up with _nasty tasting_ coffee that's as strong as the brewing-method determines. Using coffee that's too coarsely or too finely ground for the brewing method also creates nasty-tastes. The key with coffee is _avoiding _*_overextraction._* [Same goes for tea, of course, but overextraction with tea happens differently from coffee.] Rule of thumb: If you want weaker coffee, brew it _correctly,_ then add hot water afterwards to bring it down to your preferred strength. Adding hot water after-the-fact won't harm the flavor, and is akin to soaking your tea-leaves more briefly.

I have to admit it, that we whites have been trying to destroy the indigenous people of North America for centuries. The dominant culture of the US has been active in ripping apart and destroying First Nations cultures. My sense of the Hopi Nation is that it kept to itself as much as possible and interacted the least with the US. So, I wonder, JD, if your Nation fares better than other First Nations of North America due to that isolation preserving more of your original culture.

That good keep running.

Vinegar, bro. Pour it in boil, wait 15. Repeat if necessary & rinse well

Disability ≠ Inferiority Not disabled, but I find the treatment of disabled kids as "inferior" (which was going on when I was a child in the 1970s) reprehensible and revolting.

Up In The Clouds. A comedy that takes place on a reservation involving a casino.

Where did you get the tea set its really beautiful 😊

They are Native of Asia. Not America.

Abinism and albino in fact have the same meaning.. like if i said "the woman gave birth to an albino child" or could reword it and say "the woman gave birth to a child with albinism" or even again " the woman gave birth to an albinic child" is all the same it just depends on how the word is used its not meant to be albinophobic or offensive..

Powwow highway, and Mile post 398. More than Frybread. All good movie’s 😂

JD, the ending of War Party was depressing since all the native characters end up dead. It would have been more uplifting it a bunch of WP had died at the end of the movie. LOL ;)

Last of the Mohicans has a large Native American cast too and also is very good in my humble opinion.

Did you mention Black Robe?

If you don't mind me asking a little more on you bio.. what % hopi blood do you have?

As soon as I saw the thumbnail, my immediate thought was, "Oh *_NO!_* Sunburn!" My husband is a Celt, and he burns _really easily._ Hence why my first thought was sunburn. But, it just occurred to me - you probably shellac yourself with SPF-9000 any time you're exercising outdoors, don't you? 😉 I, however, am Italian-American; I don't tan, I brown. Back in grad-school, I used to wear Tevas [shoe-grade sandals], and when I was visiting my now-husband [we did the long distance thing for 5 years], he noticed that I still had tan-lines from them … _in _*_February._* 😆 Also back in grad-school [which was in Boulder, CO], during first year, I went cycling with my office-mate. I had overheated [I generate a lot of heat], and had taken off my shirt about halfway through the ride [which was up into the mountains]. The next day, I got a panicked phone-call from my office-mate and his wife, "John, are you okay?!?!" "Yeah, I tend to recover pretty quickly from overheating." "No, not that, the sunburn." "Huh? Oh, I have a little on my shoulder, I guess." <swearing on the other end> "How?!?! How did you not burn?!?!" 😆 He was beet-red. And remember, he'd done this ride before, so he was prepared for the Sun. I rode shirtless. When we were both back on campus that Monday, and we saw the evidence, I was like, "Damn! No wonder you were worried," and he was like, "How is this even possible???" Thank you, Mediterranean ancestors! 😉

Then there is me. I love indigenous people. Always did. Raised to love and respect. Do you have words for me.?

Beautiful JD! Thank you for sharing!

I need to learn more hopi

UPDATE: He is in fact STRAIGHT. Lol, I follow another blind creator on tiktok who has a husband. I guess I watched their content before coming across his post.

Mind sharing where you buy the tea used here...the tagerine stuff with leaves? First time I have seen this type of tea and would like to try it.

Missed you! Glad to see you well and we are always here to support you 🎉 Nativepanda here! Took long break on TikTok but still following on UA-cam ❤

FunFact #1: Those pyramid sachets you mention at 9:25? They were _designed and created_ by Harney and Sons Tea Co., in Millerton NY. The late John Harney Sr. loved tea, back at a time when the only tea in the US was sawdust that thought it had been to India. 😆 So, Mr. Harney began self-importing loose-leaf tea. Then he began selling it out of his garage. Fine hotels in Manhattan, 70mi south, began purchasing from him. And, eventually, the pressure began: "But can't you sell us tea-bags? It's more convenient."   Mr. Harney was _not_ willing to compromise. He knew loose-leaf tea was The Way. But he was also under pressure, so he started looking for something midway: something with the free-floating nature of loose-leaf tea, yet self-filtering, self-contained, and disposable. After much work, those pyramid sachets were created. How do I know this? I live not far from Millerton, NY, and toured the Harney tea "factory" there with my husband sometime back in 2000-2005. They were _only _*_just_*_ starting_ production of those sachets, and the late John Harney Sr. himself was telling me everything I related above. John Harney Sr. may be gone, but his sons _and grandsons_ continue the business. I've met them all, and the grandsons are _definitely_ going to be concerned about microplastics. Next time I'm in Millerton at their tea-shop [which is separate from the "factory"], I'll have to ask what they're doing about that. I'm sure they're working on something. FunFact #2: The "greener" the tea or the ligher the coffee roast, the higher the caffeine content. Caffeine is decomposes in heat, as well as in high oxidation. So ligher roasts, which are exposed to less heat, actually have _more_ caffeine. And with tea, the less the leaves are fermented, the less oxidation, and therefore the more caffeine. FunFact #3: The word is "eSpresso", not "EXPRESSo". The word in Italian means, "specific," as in, "thisa cup is espressly fora you!." In other words, it has nothing to do with _speed,_ but with it being _personally_ brewed _specifically_ for you! FunFact #4: Many traditional Chinese teapots have an unglazed interior, and will be used for only a single type of tea. Because it's unglazed, the interior is still somewhat porous, so it will hold some of the tea, thereby imparting flavor to each new brew.

Hooray for sledding!

We don’t have the snow. What is it

Happy you are back, brother. Brave to see you on the forefront of culture. 💚🌱🌐 💜P💙L💚U💛R🧡🏴‍☠️❤️

I never started Instascam, and I'm pretty much never on Facebork anymore. Someone had a good argument about the brouhaha going on about TikTok: You can "ban" the app in the US … which is only 10% of TikTok's market. Losing that 10% is _probably_ something that -the CCP- Bytedance can live with. Besides which: you don't need to use an app to view TikToks. You can use a web browser. And it's not too much effort to download an Android app from a 3rd-party website and install it. So fat lot of good the US govt's decree will do.

Yyyyyeah … we already have TV, UA-cam. We watch YT precisely because it's _not_ TV. UA-cam trying to be TV removes the entire reason why most people are here.
