Apache Series Marathon | BRUTAL Fights with the Comanche, Mexico, United States, and MORE!

The Apache are an incredible people that I have researched and made videos on throughout the course of the year. This is a compilation of each of the nine videos I have published on this channel about them, their conflicts, and their culture.

I have incredible respect for them as a people and hope that my research and story telling has done them justice. I am well aware that my pronunciations have not... but I am working on it.

I am mexican from Sonora And I grew up on a cattle ranch where my grandfather fought against the Apaches. He told me those stories and so did the old cowboys. The Apaches fought in Sonora until the 1930s. I have a lot of information about that era because my father was from a mountain town, Sahuaripa, and they also fought the Apaches there.

My cousin married a full blooded Apache woman. A very beautiful person with much grace. My nephew married a legal immigrant woman from Mexico. She has just passed the citizenship tests to become a citizen. Both families have children. They don't call our nation a melting pot without reason. I just know what I see. Glad to understand the importance of History. I hope that we can all get along and learn from the past. Write a new history for the future . God's grace be with you all.

I thoroughly enjoy the Texas and other Western history stories that you tell. I’m 5th generation Texan from at least 2 grandparents and love learning more about the history of Texas and the American West in general. I would love to hear more about the “Bronco Apaches” living in the Sierra Madres up until the 1930’s to 1950’s. Regarding that, my ex-wife’s grandmother was supposedly a full blood Apache, born and raised in “The Valley” of South Texas, which is a general term for most of the area South of San Antonio and South of Corpus Christi. She never learned English despite living in Texas her entire life and in Houston for the last 20-30 years. She lived to be 81 (edit:She was born around 1913 because she died in 1994, so she could have been part of the bronco apaches. To the best of my knowledge, she only spoke Spanish and never lived on a reservation, but she could have spoken Apache but didn’t let us or her children know, her husband was half Mexican and half German.) and when we went to visit her, my ex-wife’s mother and her aunt would have to translate because my rx-wife didn’t speak Spanish. My mother-in-law was born in the valley as well but learned English when she started school at 6 years old. McAllen, Tx. is basically a bilingual town and is right across the border from Reynosa, Mexico. Brownsville, Tx. (Hometown of the great singer-songwriter Kris Kristofferson) is butted up to the border by Matamoros, Mexico, Eagle Pass is farther to the West and right next to Nuevo Laredo, Mexico and the furtherest Western city in Texas is El Paso and just across the border is Juarez or “Ciudad Juarez” which has many times been the murder capital of the world. If you go through El Paso at night on I-10, you can see lights for many miles across the Rio Grande in Juarez, even though a lot of people are living in shantytown type housing.

I don’t know how I missed this fantastic presentation of the Apache. Their culture and beliefs have been appropriated and distorted; rarely are the commonly told stories based on actual Apache accounts of events, we don’t know the views of the Apache who participated, and of course Hollywood and Newspapers have their own motives for telling it their way. I found this series of vignettess so interesting and well presented that I watched it twice and bookmarked it. Extremely well researched and remarkably neutrally told, great watch thank you so much for telling us the stories of these elusive, misunderstood Peoples, I have seldom enjoyed any storyteller so compelling.

Your story format and deadpan delivery of such gems as, "It was hard country, arid, hot and mountainous. Rattlesnakes fuckin' everywhere." makes it not just worth a subscribe, but worth telling my friends and family to check out your channel.

This channel is amazing, i love learning about my fellow Amerindians.
Greetings from a mestizo Diaguita from Chile living in Australia!
Galvarino, Colo Colo, Leftraru(Lautaro), Caupolicán, some of the Auracania warriors(Mapuche) from Southern Chile, if you havent heard of them or know of them, they all have amazing stories, they (Mapuche) were the only ones who resisted Spanish invasion succesfully for 350 years...

[danielalfonsou]
