9:30 pm
a thing, israel's genocidal campaigns in gaza. the majority of lawmakers in the chamber responded with a standing ovation. the is it possible to get lost in time? well, come to come chuck a and see for yourself. here's several unique ethnic groups are remaining in their own bubble of sorts. surrounded by these beautiful landscapes, we come to see how the natives of rushes, far, far east lives and preserve the ancient additions and culture. and if we've come this far, we know that it's going to be worth the journey here
9:31 pm
here, here you're . so one thing that i've come to learn here in contract to is it really is a true melting pot. many different cultures coming together, but the edelman were believe to be the 1st people that come to contract that you yourself, are you? tillman. and where do you come from? usually it's not good up the street. we don't know from where the it to him and came to come shatka. there are several theories, but none have been proven. one hypothesis says it's woman sales here from hawaii. another claims we tried from mongolia. some say we originate in america. however,
9:32 pm
the implement call themselves the people living here long and that's what it to them and literally means a local field are co just proved that the it's woman has been living here for over 8000 years. they were here before the carfax, the cheek, she, the evens and the alleys to be these before and sisters had spread across these parts before their arrival. they works, the land they fish ton to the sea, mammals gather, did woodwork and grass for etc. and we, their descendants continue those traditions. so the german scientist george stellar. he was also a traveller. he has a theory that and you've already touched on this a little bit that the edelman and the north american natives are the same. people you've been to canada, you've been to north america in the states. what's your thoughts? what's in tough. we're often told that we look like the theme get the turkey,
9:33 pm
etc. look you, nobody at the but i see differences and they see them to our language as are different. and so our, our cultures dance, for example, our traditional activities are not the same either. sure. there's a similarity when you visit one of their villages. you look like you could easily blend in, but the clothes are different, traditions and culture as well to time. so i think we're different from them in that were indigenous to come chattanooga, they have their own tribes and as sniff cities with their own rich cultures. and traditions. you mentioned earlier that uh you know, men are believed to come here to contract to 8000 years ago in that 8000 years. are there still traditions from them that you still have in your daily life and your daily routine? the yes we do have these traditions. we still celebrate the implemented ritual festival of all like. like our ancestors we chase evil spirits away. all our women
9:34 pm
get together make all faces and scream their heads off until evil spirits the car, to leave our homes and our families. we still dance till we draw because we still love to have fun. same deal us and dance like our ancestors did. boredom was a major's and for them having fun, enjoying life, feeling happy is one of the most important pursuits for the it's woman to review it to me. and then we still respect this tradition of ours. you to look for those we so we've gras baskets using c, we'd towards the end of august we go to the pacific shore to gather see we will use it to cover our typical it's omen dwellings. take houses and buy la guns with them while ago. for none then there's fish, of course, worth of a fish is our livelihood. we stow fish, dry fish ro we'd dry. you cooler, a fish meat that comes from salt guys, simon, chum, salmon,
9:35 pm
and co host. simon. we make a lot of preserves for ourselves and for our dogs, we pick berries for us. if you don't go foraging then it's like you haven't lived that year. as soon as berries come out, you feel this urge within you. you want to go and pick them, and i'm not talking about picking raspberries and strawberries in the garden. i'm talking about cranberries blue, honeysuckle, and crowd berries. in a sense we modern it's women still follow the traditional life style of our forefathers. we talked to the earth spirits, negotiate with them, and think them during specific parts of the year. exactly when our ancestors did the same. one of the traditions that you have in the abilities that you have, i would say, is being able to cook using wooden pots without an open fire. for me, that stuff seems impossible. how do you do that? there's our ancestors didn't use iron. this is a steel knife,
9:36 pm
but in the past tools would be made of obsidian or stone. these days we cooked like everyone else and it's the women who do it. in the ancient times, however, men were in charge of the cooking. they would heat stones in a fire and put them inside wooden pots, with water and pieces of fish, by replacing cool stones with hot ones from the fire. they would simmer the fish to it's really delicious. our traditional, ancient way of cooking is much better and preserving all the whole some properties of fish. it was totally but of what they didn't use salt, i'd suggest you give it a try. it's a physically challenging process. so how to solve it to them. when you get hot standing next to a fire, they would strip to the waist and sometimes even remove their pens is but suddenly cooking would be done inside the pit house. they had special wooden tools to help them pull stones from the fire, dropped them inside the pots,
9:37 pm
and put them back. i want to ask about the raven. i know that it's very important to the common culture. but it's also important in ireland, the irish and goddess of war, more than it is also surrounded by raven, she appears as a raven, the scandinavian god. odin also is surrounded by ravens. why do you think that this icon of the raven is so important to the woman and across many different indigenous cultures or not? so you could have the corey x and that you could. you also believe that could king echo the raven created come child good and gave birth to the corey act and the troop 2 people in the tillman believe that the queen the raven, together with his wife, eat home, created the land of come chat, sca human. we see this differently from the cory x and the choke. she for whom this land was the rock lifted from the depths of the ocean. for us, this land as
9:38 pm
a living thing was once upon a time, the codes and a home that were flying over the sparts and all they could see was an expanse of water. they landed, and the raven was able to stand. but his wife sang to her chest and there she gave birth to their son seems cut in which means or isn't working for n quotes, the raven made him become land, which means we walk upon the land of quotes and the homes. first sun seems coming. when we call to the spirit of the earth, it seems got in we talk to what we say seems good in. thank you, please help us. later, they had more children and at some point, the tillman came into existence. is it a coincidence? such many consider the raven to be there for father, a wise bird, or some kind of an important character in our story. i don't know. what i know is that the raven holds a lot of symbolism for russians as well. it's symbolizes wisdom, a sort of intellectual force that sees every thing for some. it's
9:39 pm
a hard question to answer, but i like the fact that we share some characters, be that metaphorical representations are actual spirits. we believe in the unify us . it means humanity used to be once, and it just means tribes split apart at some point and went their separate ways. the raven, however, remained sadly and which still binds us together. this the news, i'm sure that at some level our cultures have something in common in the way we see ourselves and perceive our connection to nature role. it's my understanding and we've talked about this a little bit already in this conversation. the dance is very important to the gentleman culture. but in the past dance was a asking for a good hunt or maybe asking for good health. does dance today have the same type of meaning for you, or is it more just a tradition?
9:40 pm
you know, our dances are also rituals. you enter a sort of trends during the it's a min festival of high lie. we hold the russian traditional dance championship for the indigenous people of cum shatka, where we dance for 17 hours, non stop there, we share energy, communicate with our tribes, the irs and the spirits the the moon. it's an unforgettable experience. each indigenous dance is a story, a way to get in touch with higher powers and the energy that surrounds us. air,
9:41 pm
water, earth, fire, and the spirits of animals which we sometimes also invoke in our dance as you've been many years ago. the gentleman used to dance, so they literally dropped from exhaustion over generations and generations of different ethnic groups. we've income truck i have mixed. is it safe to say that the cultures and traditions of the different groups have mixed to become a unique come track a culture can years but the youth certainly traditions and cultures are mixed. and traditionally gloria command and women never dense close to each other. they dance their separate dances each and their own bible. the implement are very different. the always i see a man, you should get the issue because she's a woman means and we go the
9:42 pm
the, the cory to the don't do this dance practice now the, to condense together and have fun. there's a cross pollination of cultures. on the one hand, it's beautiful on the other. it's becoming more difficult to make distinctions and figure out what austin took it to him and culture is a and that's but there are no more peer at. tillman, tillman. families are all mixed with other ethnic groups. the
9:43 pm
1st of all, i want to thank you for bringing us in here to have this look into your life, into your culture. it's fascinated. thank you. i guess i want to ask 1st uh, what does it mean to be caught out? where do the credit people come from? and what does it mean to you? not to do that, there's a distinction you to go there are coastal codecs in one and 200 corrects the trust you then who heard reindeer and let's say that they're known as rich folks because they have huge herds and reindeer are highly prized by c r. grandmas who raised and taught us some of the village would always say that the correct main treasure were a large family. a really large one under heard of dear kid, that's why people took good care of their families. of no reindeer reindeer,
9:44 pm
maybe even took priority. as they were essential to life, like sure, all our clothes, everything we have everything our ancestors had. it all revolved around reindeer. when they made clothes or a reindeer meat, they used to say that the animals lived on with them. we where its skin living is a life goes on. you can see that we're surrounded by reindeer hines, and i can see that they're working specifically on making these beautiful clothes that you're known for. um, it seems to me that it would be incredibly difficult to make all of these close and by hand. do you have specific tools that you use to is to make your clothes? yeah. for going. so yes, we do. uh, what kind of for civilization came to us, so to speak. there were these old tools are, these are the tips for the connection they were created naturally. i think a lot,
9:45 pm
they're very old. that's a kind of with this rock is used to carry leather. what if the sun with this is the best traditional tool to get phone is the video because cool. so here's a more modern version from the time when we began using iron retail, we'll talk with google on boston, which is sharper than stone. most i've seen that when my grandma had me tana hyde, was this iron tool, and she didn't give me a high quality piece because she knew i would rip it to me or whatever. so she gave me anything that wasn't valuable to renewals. can you joke? uh you show that we just do what we use to use this board for tanning. we place it like this style and put the deer skin on top of that of the sea and that's in line. i'm not going to press hard now, because this piece has already been attend school or otherwise i would be going
9:46 pm
like this at the put your arms get really tired of these, but that's how you build muscles and become very strong. healey. sec, the the line is so we remove the top layer, we grease the hide with deer mock several times 3 or 4. so it becomes soft when it's soft like this, we can further process it using our hands. okay. how much time does it take for you to make a specific piece of closing load, say, a coffee uncle for a, for code, for example, regarding how long it takes and it isn't much depends on what the craft artist plan is, how detailed and beautiful she wants this piece of clothing to be there is also burial clothing to it is our custom to have that ready when people are still alive today, it would be very unusual. but our people have destroyed us. and you know, we made our own burial clothes. it would take 3 or 4 similar pieces to make
9:47 pm
a complete set for women, my size touch and feel how soft it is is very cool. now i understand that you decorate so beautifully while you're closing with bands and symbols. are they just decorative or do they have meaning? it's just you just said i'm in your room because all, i'll show you a piece so you can compare these ornaments are called some. today. we call them your google and cut ax, meaning moons. you correct? still use the lunar calendar for seasons based on the lunar faces. the correct people know how to get their bearings using the moon and stars will not our ancestors were really good at finding their way like this for so i kind of that a visa or nimble up with, you know, beads were brought here and exchange for local products we didn't have beats before that the summer and local craft women took a liking to them once. because they added beauty to the traditional needlework
9:48 pm
patterns and brought out there also intensity review. i'm talking about the traditional moves. our ancestors used to embroider on their quotes without beads. they made beads of their own from natural materials, like fish bones, shells into your hair. just one book here, i'll show you it did, of course, and this is an authentic codec son pattern, or a movie, as we call it. so can you tell me a little bit more about what the symbols and bends me and specifically i am in the cracks, display their lifestyle in these decorations. maybe you want to know some of the most important thing for them was the deer versus the water line. and so most often to do your antlers or mountains, volcanoes or tree branches to do the coastal corrects. also called lawns lived along the coast. so they had these wave patterns as for the colors they used,
9:49 pm
there weren't as many color options as today. they mostly used red, black and white, and they're ornaments. elizabeth, what the most cook, i'm that my grandma used to say when we decorated my for jacket on the ymca news that you need to take inspiration from the ground. black or brown represents 1st. yeah. green is for grass. we didn't have green or light blue, for example. the choice of colors was limited to the basic black, red and white. white is the color of sanctity purity. red as the color of defense, it gives you protection. that's it. a back in those days are crossed, swimming also made carpet switch, told their family stories, see if there was no writing system. so ornaments told stories you could tell from those pictures the families occupation. the even tragic incidents were depicted from when someone died or was killed away from home. family history was passed down
9:50 pm
in order to minimize the there's a legend about a no man who room does the earth with his reindeer. when the animal google's and weary, it turned to his master and said, kill me, drink my blood, and we will become one. my soul will come back to earth and giving birth to a new ranks of reindeer people. we are now headed across the tundra of contract to meet the descendants of those very people, deep evans, the so you're out here with no signs in the middle of nowhere, no communication. how do you know where to go? this mode, if we have a special route so we can't go beyond certain limits because that's outside, i'll post you. so we pay for the right to keep our animals in certain areas and for hunting land climate factors to. it's very hard to dig. if there's a lot of snow the, the account get to the most. so we need to move to another place with less snow up
9:51 pm
to 50 centimeters. and how many ranger do you have in your heard here? and so, is it difficult to control them? with this 2000, including the cough so that the number of fluctuates as some do you have become sick or full pray to other animals including 2 like good ones. most people that write it as to fully explore some stuff is low up on the line and it's not easy to control the rain data. it depends on the pulse jolanda. if you stay in the same place all the time, you'll destroy all the mos. it takes up to 25 years for new most to grow. you need at least 15 years for some of to appear. so we can't stay in the same spot. we need to keep the rain dea moving. i'll be looking for areas where there isn't a lot of snow or ice when you're out here in the nature, when you're with the ranger, what do you feel? what isn't it for you to fulfill the journey? besides, i feel free out here at the north, folded by walls of anything else. symbolization doesn't get in the way because it said no radio though, so i can't listen to the news that goes so find things out later,
9:52 pm
but just to just know what are the task for anything else? present, sorry about the dog footing as a very special place in the life of the indigenous people in come, chunk of what seems like entertainment for some was once a crucial method of survival in extreme weather. this american family is now reviving these ancient traditions the of the now that is impressive on very all right. so let's get right to and i've heard the rumors that your children before, they can even walk are already in a sled. what is flooding to with these dogs?
9:53 pm
is it a sport? is it a way of life? is it an ancient tradition? talk to me about that? no. go through what they say the most. my wife participates in. don't said races even when she's pregnant. most convenient. but the moist is like, let's go with our kids. are in the sled with her. who gets her? i still do. i'm sending for us is on live life in the forest with dogs close to nature. because even with the time we pause, cultural tradition and emotions down to our children. that very perceptive read that will cause they grow up surrounded by this strong healthy and learning from us, spitting yeah, thing with nature, they do dog studying on their own and collect and i can tell your whole family is involved. so what exactly is a musher and what you have to have in your skill set to become one that you're the marshal call you is dedicated to his dogs and he lives with them. is the most that drives the dog? said team to pull it up. i would caught in the boss believe to everything depends
9:54 pm
on the motion the entire life of his team look inside. now do you become a musher? people usually start with one dog and then the team starts growing with the 2nd side. now you do anything special to train your dogs to run or is this just in their genes? yes, the women prepping for a race. it's like any athletes. and we dropped a plan and tried to stick to it, which i believe these particular dogs have it in that blind. but we don't need to make extra efforts to brand, but don't just letting you just put it into the harness. it will get up to this lead an office goes. i noticed an interesting phenomenon when they were getting ready to be hooked up the entire group of them off started housing at once. what does this mean? is this a signal? is this a rally cry that they're getting ready to go running or they? well, it's a very interesting question issue and you know, i don't remember anyone giving you a comprehensive answer to it. no, i think by housing, they express the unit, see an eking this to run is
9:55 pm
a line. yeah. do you think will show example, once it will starts housing, the whole pan copies install it down and see like the same is happening here with the dogs. and it's the manifestation of teen square is how this might seem like the most basic of questions. but how many dogs are there to a slab? is there a limit, or is there a set number that have to be there minus but we use between 6 and 16 dogs for one said, depending on what's required from a good take killer run. well, if it's a long distance in 1500 to 2000 in columbus is yes, we would use as many dogs as we can up to 16 by so i give it to show it to run. uh, 68 or 10 dogs have plenty. mm hm. now you know that different dogs have different roles on the sled, which implies the fact that they might have different psychological traits as well . how do you choose which specific dogs go where on a slide to monitor? that's what we see right from the start. and when the dogs are still puppies,
9:56 pm
one year that camped in the kennel, and as they grow older, we start walking them, go. we take the mother on the lease and go to the forest for a walk using it, and then we can wash the pumps and see that kind of i just right away. i need some opposite rank to another afraid to run ahead we. we mark them as potentially dogs who will stay of the team. that's what i mean other bob so less active and always stay behind the brain of a one and see if they will go in the middle of the dog team on a campus there. and some always think, kindest, you know, going round your legs, but they will run away, but you have to, they are afraid to follow the rest of the team. the best plus a piece of these dogs will be harnessed in the rear of the team. a sudden him directly in front of the sledge, the wheel of dogs, they 1st, that's how they'll grow. so determined let an initial stage before the day. so when you still in training, the dogs of the abilities will manifest themselves best. uh, is there ever a case where there's
9:57 pm
a dog that just isn't suited for running and what happens to that dog that happens was sometimes the dog is afraid to run in the hall and this with the team. it starts to slow down. we're going to even lie down. you can't use dogs like this. again, they're usually very good companion, so walks in the forest because they never run away. we have many such dogs here, but they remain part of the family and stay here with the rest of the team. the we've traveled the breadth of the contract dependence of us taking in its mesmerizing landscapes and people the they live in some of the harshest conditions and on demand for wind and snow, the even making their homes i'm, it's the fire breathing volcanoes. here there's total harmony between nature and
9:58 pm
people preserving the unique culture and identity. the light from this day one been even begun mentioned was being drafted in early 19. the united states was very clear that the ok, any action that's like affected economy that are not allowed climate negotiations to make progress. and did not take strong targets based on this fashion based on that as part of the emissions. but rather they kept dragging their feet and camp
9:59 pm
and what the responsibility on china and india and other developing countries the other way not. right. so see because the new ones are out there so. so the, just so basically of course we need, the last name was name is read, it was can, when we used to imagine we have more than one by us or someone was this we, which i knew people to the,
10:00 pm
the, the, [000:00:00;00] the hello and welcome to cross stock were all things are considered. i'm peter live out . and his address to a joint session of congress is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu. we spent a good portion of the speech attacking americans who had been protesting israel's genocidal campaign in gaza. the majority of lawmakers in the chamber responded with a standing ovation. the
