Before tomorrow's talk on the Sand Creek Massacre, read this.
on the massacre, its causes and its outcomes, and its resonance today. The nightmare at Sand Creek has seared the collective consciousness of the Cheyenne and Arapaho nations for over a century and a half.
The war in the Chesapeake represented the first conflict in a nearly unbroken string of warfare between the European and indigenous populations in what ultimately became the United States. The war in Virginia was followed closely by warfare in New England against the Pequots, who were nearly obliterated by the English colonists and their Narragansett allies. The Narragansetts, in turn, were subjugated by the English decades later.
While the British surrendered their hold over this country to the United States in the 1783 Treaty of Paris, the real losers were the numerous tribes that were forced from the region by the United States Army and the waves of settlers that overran the Ohio Valley.
