This movie challenges ones mind to see racism from another perspective. It forces the issue of racism not on a black/white side of things, but an African American and Indian proportionally view.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

I truly liked this movie and the actors involved with it. I believe that they each gave very strong and believable performances. I would like to know however, if the movie is based on an actual account. Is there more to the story than what we've been shown? It made me think of the outcome for the two lovers as well as the ones left behind. It would be satisfying to know if this has a further story to tell. Thanks for presenting this little piece of history it was enjoyable to watch and place yourself in the place of the characters. Both of the main characters were strong and I felt their passion as well as their search for one another. I hope they made it!

As I watched this movie I said, 'it's about time we had some truthful and honest movies to be place in a nature sating'. We need more movies like this. Very interesting movie, points and surprise that the black race would be prejudice toward the Indian race consider the two was in the same situation. As a black Native American Indian I was please to watch a movie that was so detail and excellent acting my hat goes off to the director and choice of performers. If my great grandmother were alive she would have been pleased, it would have been an honor to watch a movie about her own life. My great grandmother was a Cherokee Indian woman that lived in a difficult time and the screenplay of Waka Mani and Cleola was if I was watching her life. Thanks for the pleasure and the educational events.Windwalker

Good historical movie without being sickeningly PC. Script intelligently done and is believable.Nice conflicts between cultures, well defined, and interesting to see education defined as "white man's culture".Good actors in this movie, and good acting. Characters well developed and interesting. Strong Indian character who learns that there is a lot that is good in the white man's culture. Strong black characters who tout the values of the white culture and education to the Indian.Ron Glass in a good part; one in which he plays a black educator with high moral values. Very good bonding between characters; you felt a lot of friendship displayed. Directing and casting first-rate: all in all an excellent movie.

Picking a movie to watch is a learning experience in itself. Why this one and not that one or we watch because we know someone that liked or disliked the movie. Whatever the reason, we learn from the experience and put ourselves on another road to learn something new if we let it happen. This movie can be a learning experience at the same time that we're entertained visually. There's much to see, if we learn to watch.
