As an indigenous kid in 1975 I was taken from my home fostered then adopted out. I appreciate this work 🤜🏽❤️

My mother was taken at 5 yrs old . Boarding school. I miss her . She is the strongest woman ill ever know. Honored to be her daughter.

God bless John Leguizamo, his miniseries THE GREEN VEIL.
Let there be Justice for Native Americans who were robbed of their Birthrights.

The reality of our history isn’t pretty. Such corruption is hard to admit for those who benefited from this inhumanity.

[missb]

This is why they want to ban books and re-write HISTORY..Thanks to John for this project..

[darlalapole]

Another shameful scar on our country! I am glad to see that you are telling this story, John. I am a fan and I look forward to viewing this series!

[Soundslikefreedom]

Anything that shows the suffering of a people has the opportunity to touch people’s hearts and teach empathy. So important for the times!

[cynthiah.]

Thank you John for making this movie. I am Indigenous Indian and our history needs to be told.

[David_Canada]

History is important and thank you for making this come to light

[alicerobison]

THANK YOU JOHN for doing this! FINALLY the truth is brought to the forefront!

[theifddreams]

I'm so happy that this is being made, as someone who is part-native american, I appreciate learning more of my heritage no matter how painful it is. Shout out to John Leguizamo for doing this.

Thank-you John for informing the public about how natives were treated, and yes it’s needs to have a media platform for the truth.nie

My dad was taken from his family by the government and placed in boarding school when he was 4 years old! He and the other children were abused if they even tried to speak their language, so he told me that a few of them would take their chances and meet in the restroom in the middle of the night just to speak to one another. RIP dad, thank you for being as strong as you can be.

I had never heard this story before. Separating native children from their families for the rights to their land!

[DavidJ]

All of South Dakota’s nine indigenous tribes have now voted to ban Kristi Noem from their lands. Somewhere, Cricket is smiling.  🐕

[amylarson]

I could watch John Leguizamo all day long! What a gifted and talented actor!! Even when he did a short stint on The Daily Show, he was positively ingenious with his comedic delivery!!

[Hope-wl]

For all history of the USA, we only hear about Black / White stories. We don't hear much about Native and Indigenous people. We're very interested to hear and see these films or documentaries. The fact is, Native people were here before any European country entered this land. We do need to learn the real history of the Native people.

[vonz]

Thank You Mr. JL. I'm a person of American Mexican/ Native American decentdant.
The stories that are told to us, stay among us. No one wanted to hear them but us.
The injustice to Red Nation, Brown Nation, Black Nation and Yellow Nation are unbelievable to others.
Thank You for your time and talent you bring to us.

I worked with and befriended a Native American man who was the last surviving member of the Mandan tribe. His wife who was Navajo, was removed from her tribe and placed in a Mormon home to be raised and educated. It was a very hard and sad time for her. She was never allowed to see her family or visit home. They both presently live on Navajo reservation lands and are doing well.
