Hello. My name is Jordan number, and today I will
- 00:04 - 00:09
be talking about Native American music or specifically, a Native
- 00:09 - 00:16
Americans were affected by a Hollywood stereotypes singing red faces.
- 00:17 - 00:20
When a person who's not of native descent takes on
- 00:20 - 00:23
the persona of being a native person through dance or
- 00:23 - 00:27
song, I think that the Native American summer camp is
- 00:27 - 00:30
a very ignorant way for them to make money by
- 00:30 - 00:33
preying on the ignorance of the young boys who go
- 00:33 - 00:35
there in the movie riel engine.
- 00:35 - 00:38
It says that most of the boys education about the
- 00:38 - 00:41
natives had come from the movies they had seen them
- 00:41 - 00:44
in when in reality, those movies air not what a
- 00:44 - 00:47
real native persons culture is like.
- 00:48 - 00:51
This shows that our education system has not provided the
- 00:51 - 00:53
proper education over the native people.
- 00:54 - 00:57
Because if they did, the summer camp that is making
- 00:58 - 01:01
these young boys saying Red face wouldn't be open because
- 01:02 - 01:05
their parents would have also gotten an education over why
- 01:05 - 01:07
this campus so offensive to the Native Americans?
- 01:13 - 01:16
Black basements really is.
- 01:16 - 01:19
They come comedic show making fun of the African Americans
- 01:20 - 01:20
and their culture.
- 01:21 - 01:24
Some of the performances would have there actors in blackface
- 01:25 - 01:30
for comedic effects, singing Red Face and Black Face minstrel
- 01:30 - 01:31
e. R.
- 01:31 - 01:36
Somewhere because they are both being discriminated against because and
- 01:36 - 01:40
by the Americans during this time whose humor comes from
- 01:40 - 01:41
the oppression of others.
- 01:43 - 01:44
Here's an example.
- 01:44 - 01:50
Picture. The movie Riel Engine talks about why the Native
- 01:50 - 01:54
American stereotypes were made, and it's because they wanted to
- 01:54 - 01:57
romanticize the tragedy of the native people to make it
- 01:57 - 02:01
seem like they didn't exist anymore when cinema was in
- 02:01 - 02:01
the silent area.
- 02:02 - 02:05
The natives where the main Hollywood stars Because they had
- 02:06 - 02:09
real native people, acting and directing in films like The
- 02:10 - 02:12
Silent Enemy, with actor chief Buffalo.
- 02:13 - 02:16
Dr Chief Buffalo was black, white and native, which was
- 02:16 - 02:20
called I Am Not Manalo during that time.
- 02:20 - 02:25
Manalo is a person with multiple ethnicities, and back then
- 02:25 - 02:26
that was looked down upon.
- 02:27 - 02:30
He was a very famous and renowned native actor who
- 02:30 - 02:34
shocked the Americans by how well mannered will dress and
- 02:34 - 02:35
how white he appeared.
- 02:36 - 02:39
Once the other Hollywood people found out he was also
- 02:39 - 02:42
black, they stopped inviting him to parties and openings.
- 02:43 - 02:45
This ultimately caused him to kill himself.
- 02:46 - 02:48
Once they all found out about his riel heritage.
- 02:49 - 02:51
He started to treat him so bad he thought his
- 02:51 - 02:53
life wasn't even worth living.
- 03:00 - 03:03
Racial apathy When there is hatred or a grudge against
- 03:04 - 03:07
a specific race solely based on their skin color, native
- 03:08 - 03:11
people endured racial apathy many different times throughout history.
- 03:11 - 03:14
But the main time was when the Americans tried to
- 03:14 - 03:17
culturally appropriate the natives to be more like them.
- 03:20 - 03:29
There's a picture of racial apathy, cultural confusion when two
- 03:30 - 03:32
groups of people don't get along because of the cultural
- 03:32 - 03:36
history between their people, causing discord between the two groups
- 03:36 - 03:37
of people.
- 03:39 - 03:44
An example of this would be how the Americans took
- 03:45 - 03:48
away the land from the native people, causing cultural confusion
- 03:49 - 03:50
throughout the years.
- 03:52 - 03:56
Idealized sympathy, the opposite of cultural confusion.
- 03:56 - 03:59
Because it it's when two like minded people have a
- 04:00 - 04:03
mutual agreement that holds an ongoing harmony within their bond
- 04:10 - 04:10
cultural misappropriation.
- 04:12 - 04:16
When a minority or oppress culture has something taken away
- 04:16 - 04:20
from them from another culture, who is the presser is
- 04:21 - 04:23
most most historical documents.
- 04:25 - 04:28
An example of this would be the Americans took away
- 04:28 - 04:32
the native peoples land, making the Americans oppressors and the
- 04:32 - 04:33
native Americans depressed.
- 04:36 - 04:41
Another example of cultural misappropriation for my paper is in
- 04:41 - 04:41
the film.
- 04:42 - 04:47
Does Disney's film Peter Pan They say they sing a
- 04:47 - 04:50
song called What Makes the Red Man read by Candy
- 04:51 - 04:56
Candido. This was showing the stereotypical so cinematic depiction of
- 04:57 - 04:59
the native people by making the men look like savages
- 05:00 - 05:02
and the woman look like damsels in distress.
- 05:11 - 05:16
Overall, my paper was about how Hollywood had depicted Native
- 05:16 - 05:20
Americans and a negative and stereotypical light throughout the years,
- 05:21 - 05:25
from the very first silent film to the current day
- 05:26 - 05:28
movies and art and music.
- 05:29 - 05:33
To this day, Thank you for listening to my Prezi.
