In Native American communities, the challenges of remote learning are even greater. Broadband accessibility and computer ownership are just part of the problem. Some homes don’t even have electricity.» Subscribe to NBC News: http://nbcnews.to/SubscribeToNBC

Underfunded Native American Communities Struggle With Remote Learning | NBC Nightly News
Ohhh these are the white indians n im supposed to feel bad?????
I was a poor white kid brought up in the U.S. midwest. Guess I was massively underfunded as well, considering no one provided me with housing, food, free technology, or medical care. “Medical care,” courtesy ACA (“Obamacare”), didn’t show up until after the six-figure bypass surgery that bankrupted me. I’m sorry, indigenous peoples, but you already have advantages few others are afforded. Count me among those who lack sympathy.
@Lexy Swope How so? Do explain…
@Mr C Yup… The natives I knew who were adults all had a good job, house, family etc…
There will be no sympathy from 👽 or from We in Contact &
Allegiance to 👽s,
for cannabilistic Angloids & Euroids who have heavier levels of Neanderthal DNA than the rest of the human population
@discorperted I can’t say the same, but it wasn’t because they were discriminated against! They had access to far more education and/or job training than the majority of us, all the while not having to worry about food, shelter, medical care. I’ve no sympathy!
I keep telling my people, using this white guilt is not sustainable.
They are their OWN NATIONS!
Their fate is a result of their own communities actions at this point
Do those people have a govt agency that is federally funded JUST to help them?
Cause the natives do…They got 2.4 billion in funding in 2019….Go cry me a river
The reservations are land given to them to live on. The land is generally uninhabitable. It’s shameful.
@SL Davison Go to the Taos res and tell me that….
@discorperted +++ That’s one out of how many?
@Professor Yancy There is a few reservations in the southwest that are not so good for living but the majority of them are in perfectly fine locations.. In some cases like the Taos reservation they are on some of the most valuable real estate on earth
And its worth noting the Taos res had a woman who was 70 or 80+ living in shack with a dirt floor, no electricity, no windows, no heat source, no refrigerator etc 10 yards from the main Pueblo where tourists walked about obliviously ( tourists who paid good money to get in to see the Pueblo)….
You tell me who is at fault for such elderly women living in such horrid conditions…
Wish Trump would stop that weird rant racial purity rant about “Pocahontas” and how he wouldn’t mind having a little native warrior blood of his own. Just extend federal help to Native Americans already.
@Gretchen Hubbert Its called the Bureau of Indian Affairs.. They were given 2.4 billion in aid in 2019 alone.
Govt agency’s are not funded by the president. They are funded by the congress who passes legislation that is then moved on the the senate and then the president signs what they have legislated into law.. Or the pres veto’s it which then sends it back to the congress and senate to see if they can overcome the veto with votes. Learn some civics
@discorperted Could you please copy & paste your above civics lesson and email it to your Emperor? While we all learned how government works at various stops in our American education, your liege lord was apparently asleep thru it all. Wish he understood where the purse strings are, too.
@Gretchen Hubbert Odd- you openly posted writing in which you clearly do not understand the president cant just create money to send to people.. Now like a child you deflect…Good day
@discorperted I do understand that the president can’t create money and send it to people. Indeed, I’m glad that you established that. Now we both agree that when the president promises voters a second round of stimulus checks by executive order, he is brazenly lying. He can’t do that. In fact, I’m finding it’s best not to assume that any executive order the Emperor is waving around does anything he says it does.
But I will admit that my original statement is poorly written. When I say, “Just extend federal help already,” I didn’t really have an executive order in mind. I was thinking just any extension of help thru the federal government at large, whether that’s thru Indian Affairs of Department of Education or whatever agency has money during the pandemic. That was a poorly articulated thought, and I see that your responses are spot on in speaking to exactly what I said. My bad. I will try to be more articulate in the future.
@Gretchen Hubbert Odd- your original post clearly shows your demand for the president to give money to native americans…
To the anti-maskers and the people complaining about lockdowns honestly are so self entitled. How can you complain about ridiculous topics while people don’t have running water in the next state over? Selfish entitlement.
When an 80 year old alcoholic and fauci go mask free in tight spaces next to people you can ask youself why you have a diaper on your face
discorperted you’re a perfect example of ignorance. I literally have no idea what point you’re trying to make, I guess lack of intelligence would make it hard to communicate.
SAY NO TO MASKS AND IM FRIGGIN OUT OF PRINGLES!!!!😭
The maggot dine Vice President of the Navajo people sucking trumps pud didn’t help
It is hard for a lot of people. I met a woman who is still going to work and only one who has a phone. Both kids are in different grades and have to wait till she gets home from work to take turns catching up with their work
Wow in this modern society the United States of America government can’t take care of native people on government reservations I want the government to releases native treatise to the public to see how the government screws over native people till this day
@Gemin_Ice The money the are given and squander.. That money.. Billions a year.. And no land is being stolen from indians.. Thats silly
discorperted -The potus just revoked reservation status for the Mashpee Wampanoag tribe; more than 300 acres in Massachusetts. If you’re going to attempt an insult, at least know what you’re talking about. As for squandering, live on any reservation and tell me how much is squandered. Who’s receiving billions annually? Certainly not anyone tribe. While you’re at it, tell me why a specific church was awarded $1.4 billion in COVID aid and $3.5 billion in PPP.
@Gemin_Ice There is no legitimate “tribes” in the northeast.. They are all white as the driven snow.. At least know what you are talking about.. Heck- I am a “native” under the “tribes’ of the northeast’s definition.. Show some respect- white man.. .LoL
discorperted -Another $5 Indian 🙄
@Gemin_Ice Go to a reservation and visit a real person living there… Get back to me on what the problem is on the res… I had Natives openly tell me- dont go to the res at night…. As you WILL be assaulted… Not out of anger.. But to test your will….Many natives have their stuff together and are great people who are sucessful. But many are not and see it as a means of a handout.. And the northeastern “tribes” are a shame in their own right as its mostly white folks playing native to try and profit on the tails of the suffering of actual native peoples…
Grow up a little
They weren’t provided laptops because the government thought they were using smoke signals to communicate
+++ Prayer was the 1st Wireless signal. Smoke signals were second!
It’s sad that in this country education always takes a back seat and it’s only beneficial for the privilege. As an example story from yesterday that noted that ppl are sending their kids to camp for remote learning, but only for the ones that can afford 9 thousand…ppl 9…. Here it’s the story @16:10 https://youtu.be/0pozaL2t2YA
And this is the reason Burt Reynolds died…..
That so shame on usa the native of america should have the best of every thing after they been the native of this land who became devided between riches and poors. Devided between black and white. Devided between democrats and Republicans so 😥 sad😭😭😭😱😱😱😱😱😱😠😠😠😠😠😭😭
The rest of America works for what little they have the natives are no better than the rest of us.
Maybe somebody’s president could donate to the cause.
Just saw his tax returns. He can’t afford it. Perhaps he’d like to make an “in-kind” donation, though. Like, sell Ivanka to some wealthy mideast shiek and give the Nations the proceeds.
Yeah like our billionaire businessman president.
Show how the ones claiming Native came from Europe
Check out the video of me busting the chops of an Anglo race-pyramid Mafia member who falsely claimed to be Native American to instigate confusion in narrative on purpose to subvert authority
The video is on my YouTube account
@Michael Charles werido
@Frixwar. I’m Jesus Christ (Quetzalcoatl) here in tHis second coming, “dude”. You can’t even Spell the sWord rite.
Ok….so whaaaaatt
Stupid Trump-Hitler and his wife are not for grief, but to show the expensive clothes and height she wore! See how many Americans live on the streets! Trump-Hitler said that it was for the Americans, but in fact it was all for his family! His women and children have a lot of illegal income! The bad guy Trump-Hitler who do everything for good!?don’t understand why many people in the United States still fail to recognize his essence? I don’t know Why vote him re-elected! Trump can even cheat his brother and niece, but can he treat you well? Keep your eyes open and choose Mr. Biden! Mr. Biden is a good president who is loyal and honest for the country and the people!
So sad…there is no way this can continue. Always the Natives are pushed behind and are forced to live way below the poverty level and denied the basic human needs such as water or electricity.
White guy here. I demand I also be provided with housing, good, medical care, food, and enough money to allow me to develop a decent substance abuse problem if I want to! DEMAND it! To provide those things to only one minority in the U.S. is CLEARLY discriminatory in the contemporary United States! (Get over yourselves and your outrageous sense of entitlement, indigenous people!)
Just want to say a shout out thank you for all the donations! Intel and others.👍😀👍
Just imagine how much someone made from the gold after they stole the Black Hills.
Just imagine the billions given to the Nations over the years that got wasted by their corruption and abuse, but always managed to keep failing liquor stores and casinos in business. Just imagine…
U.S. government is evil.
My prayers to all the navajo nation and all indigenous people who are dealing with the same situation I pray the government snaps out of it and helps you all.
Small brother from heaven-Come my big brother I am getting bored.
Big brother – No have not destroyed it completely it will take 4 year’s more.

Reservations are a home by choice. This is Socialism . Some people do,while others hold their hand out.
Education is the key it will set the people free
Natives were put there and not allowed to leave.
No tribal officials interviewed….where does all the money go?
Reservations are segregation by choice…..Come join the melting pot.
That part on the solar panels was a ringing endorsement on the technology. Sun isnt out light goes out. Yes to fossil fuels.
+++ There’s wind energy and that’s there are two things they have wind and dust. Vertical Access Wind Turbines is what they do not solar panels. VAWT . The wind is available both day and night. Also, they have animals they could connect and have them go around in circles connected to a harness to produce electricity.
There are no excuses except to oppress people.
I live with a solar system oh, I have a generator to. Batteries last all night. I run a refrigerator. As well as Lights TV CD player. I live on a boat. Fossil fuels cause cancer and other serious life consequences.
@Edward Roche’ Appreciate your response and opinion. Im intrigued you live on a boat. Cheers to a good life!
What happened to the money they received from government reparations?
What’s going to happen to the Rothschild-involved London controlled Federal Reserve?
Lost in all Bureaucracy
@Michael Charles Centralized banking on Native Country has been devastating to what remaining economy we have left.
Exactly!!!!
2:30¹ 😖 If you touch the outside of the mask –which is what it is in contact w/the suspended particles–, and then you touch the ports of entry –eyes, mouth and/or nose–, how do you expect not to get contaminated by it?!
¹P.S: For those missing the point on the timestamp 👉She touched the outside of the mask, then touched her eyes… Big ‘no, no!’
Meanwhile TOTAL is making over 300000 Africans homeless in Mozambique just to access Rubies and Gas
if you can’t afford to have kids, don’t have them. someone needs to tell these poor idiots, that they’re not wealthy enough to have kids. sorry. work harder or move somewhere, where there’s actually jobs, dummy. you can’t expect to live on the res and live like an American.
Fakedemic, designed to oppress the poor. Only the rich can afford pod learning.

Watching this reminds me of many indigenous communities here in Australia. Its a damned shame
Since the creation of the Welfare State, Government-funded programs are not working; they are just stifling the Navajo Nation. The evidence is empirical.
Are they not Americans either..?
What is wrong with you America… help your people.
They are helped more than any other group for sure they just pretend they are not.
OH THIS IS SO SHAMEFUL !!! THE U.S..HAS LOST THERE MINDS !!!
Republicans are liars and thieves, proven repeatedly. DO NOT TRUST ANYTHING THEY SAY – AT EVERY LEVEL OF GOVERNMENT! #VoteThemAllOut #MitchTheCon #MittTheCon #DonTheCon #DisbarBarr ….
Democrats are nothing better. Only difference is their name.

These people are a national treasure and should be cared for as such. More so than stupid monuments.
Why do US citizens fund reservations?
“Funds distributed to a person of Indian descent may represent mineral lease income on property that is held in trust by the United States or compensation for lands taken in connection with governmental projects. Some Indian tribes receive benefits from the federal government in fulfillment of treaty obligations or for the extraction of tribal natural resources — a percentage of which may be distributed as per capita among the tribe’s membership.” -google
Because we scored the whole country from them! If you have to ask you must not be very literate. Read a book.
America makes the saddest poorest country in this world looks good day by day by taking it’s place every second.
Well it is THE REZ
What do they expect
They KNOW the place is sh*t…we left
Will never go back.
Evidence with Trump and R***ia(Can’t type the country since Youtube will delete)

Underfunded? Reservations are supposed to be sovereign, where’s all that casino money going?
Good question.
NBC News is nothing but treasonous garbage!
So,,, how are they going to blame Trump ?
They’ll think of something..
These people are the true americans,and they deserve better life,not like the trumps
It is usually futile to try to talk facts and analysis to people who are enjoying a sense of moral superiority in their ignorance.

I will be on your front doorstep at sunrise. R u ready?
I will see you later.
There’s so much poverty in the US, it’s heartbreaking. It’s unthinkable in my country. Even our poorest still have free healthcare, free education, electricity, etc. Sometimes the US seems like a thirdworld country where people struggle just to survive.
Where are the colonialists to help?
They caused the problem to begin with.
@Michael V They must be happy with the way things are
Unacceptable that reservations are still destitute. It’s 2020. This country should make it it’s top priority to fully fund reservations, forever.
Thank you for this illumination. I was unaware just how sadly bad it is. And it shouldn’t be.
They will benefit from Starlink, In Elon we Trust
They are the true Americans they shouldn’t have to live like that it’s a shame.
Where can I get a hold of this grandma to help with batteries for the solar system?
This should have been taken care of years ago. Same with the Philippines while we ran it we abused it. And let’s not forget Puerto or any other territory we have. And we talk about other countries while we are worse.
Omg! Watch this 😍😍😍😍😍 https://youtu.be/pkVUgT-pCNQ
Look at them Democrats internet begging on every video and never once saying one goal or reason why. Militant band-wagoners Just like High School again..
