Native Roots Revival

May your rest tonight be deep so you can rise ready to meet the new week with confidence, hope and a thankful heart.

For generations, the Blackfeet Nation has told a story of where they come from—rooted in the mountains, rivers, and plains of Montana, Alberta, and Saskatchewan. For too long, many outside voices dismissed these traditions as “myth.”
Now, genetic research suggests something remarkable: the ancestors of today’s Blackfeet trace back to a lineage that diverged from others nearly 18,000 years ago. While scientists cannot prove they lived in the exact same spot for every one of those years, the evidence affirms what the Blackfeet have always known in their songs, prayers, and memory.
This isn’t just about DNA. It’s about recognition. It’s about affirming that oral tradition carries truths science is only beginning to measure. And it’s about healing—the world finally listening to wisdom that was never lost.
The story of the Blackfeet is more than history. It is a reminder that knowledge lives in land, in language, and in the unbroken thread of memory passed from one generation to the next.
