I'm not familiar at all with any history about the First Nations People and I sort of wish I knew more just because their times were so, so different form now and they were so much more in touch with themselves and others instead of literally being absorbed by tecnology and materialistic things.
The videos displayed people with very little knowledge on aboriginal people but some still had some idea about what was going on. They seemed very disinterested except for one lady who's boyfriend is Matee. They probably weren't too concerned because that was in the passed and didn't really interest them. From the first video I learned that there are 52 First Nations which was a surprise because I always thought it was a very, very small community and had probably less that 6 languages but it was shocking to be proven wrong by such a high number. The animation showed me the 2 sides, ours and theirs. The fact that we sit around, sad and despressed ooking clicking through channels for fun whilst the First Nations people would dance and be active for a living, very different views and perspectives on things. It also seemed like the little boy representing our times was jealous of the Aboriginal man. Our times our so unique and even sort of sad that we live off technology and are so dependent on material things.
