    Plains Indian War Research Paper

    Colorado was the 38th state of the U.S. when it joined on August 1, 1876. It is America’s eight largest state. It was first explored by the Spanish in the 1500s and was given to the United States under the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo that ended the Mexican-American in 1848. Because gold was discovered in Colorado, it attracted new settlers that caused conflicts with the Indians. This caused the Plains Indian Wars. Colorado mostly votes for Republicans but sometimes it shifts to Democrats. From 1976 to 1988, all the votes are Republican but it shifted in 1992 when they voted for a democrat. Then again, from 1996 to 2004, they went back to the Republican Party. In the 2008 election, the democrats won by a margin of 53.7% compared to the republican…

    White and Indian Relations between 1865 to 1900

    Confrontations and conflicts between White American and Native American during the late eighteen hundreds become increasingly one sided. From ritual practices and beliefs to land ownership and government policy; Native Americans and there white contour parts differed greatly. Between 1865 to 1900 the "White man" and Native American relationships in western United States could be characterized as a horrible and miss leading rampage of white man destroying foreign customs and peoples. In 1862 Congress had granted western settlers their two greatest wishes, the Home Stead Act, promising ownership of 160 acre tract of public land to a citizen or head of a family who had resided on/ or cultivated the land for five years after initial claim and the transcontinental railroad. Bringing the developed east coast to the Wild West, was the catalyst to end of the Native American.…

    1860's: Relationship Between Whites And Indians

    The 1860’s brought hardship between whites and Indians. As our people slowly moved into the tribe’s land, no friendship was bound to be created. Little by little, we nudged the Indians into a limited area of land where they felt the need to fight back. Included in this retaliation was three massacres. The bloodiest battle according to the rest of the US military that was not murdered, was titled the Fetterman Massacre. The last two Massacres took place in territories such as Colorado and Missouri.…

    Manifest Destiny: The Conflicts Of American And Native American Indians

    Greediness and the desire to expand more to the West, in order to acquire more lands, were the main reasons for conflict and wars between the white population of America and the Native American Indians. They could not mutually agree, as they both wanted the best for themselves. The Native Americans were sceptical towards the whites and the whites on the other hand didn’t trust the Native Americans. Many of the white population were running out of room on the East Coast of America. As the US believed in the concept of “Manifest Destiny”, which consisted in filling the whole continent with loyal white Americans, this would inevitably lead to conflict, as the Native Americans wouldn’t have anywhere to live. It must also be noted, the importance of religion in the Indian tradition, it was even considered as a way of communication with foreigners. Indeed, the Indian religion was profoundly different to that of whites, it involved a belief in the sacredness of the land. The chief of the tribe did not have a total power over the actions of his tribe. This was a good system, but the whites could not understand it. Hence, the…

    The Revolutionary War: A Turning Point For Native Americans

    The Revolutionary War became a turning point for Native Americans who were struggling to stop white settlers from invading their land. The war was fought for many different reasons, but among those, because the British were supporting Native Americans in their fight against American expansion. Because of this, most Native Americans who joined the fight, fought against the United States. The British had promised the Indians that if they won, the settlers invading their land would be stopped. As stated in the film "Appalachians," most American Indians, including the Cherokee, became divided. Most favored the British because in 1763, "the King had issued a proclamation that prohibited westward expansion." But because of this, the American Indians…

    Cherokee Tribe History

    Even if it was quite a good deal for the federal government, a lot of people who were part of the Cherokee tribe felt betrayed because the negotiators did not represent the tribal government. John Ross, the principal chief of the Nation once wrote “The instrument in question is not the act of our nation,” to the Senate of the United States of America protesting against this treaty. Furthermore, a large number of Cherokees (about 16,000) signed Ross’s petition, but the treaty was approved anyway by the congress. By 1838, just a few Cherokees had left their “former land” for what was called the Indian Territory. After this, nearly 7,000 soldiers were sent to expedite this removal process. The Cherokee were thus forced to march more than 1,200 miles to Indian Territory. Unfortunately, along the way, as said earlier, it was easy for Indians to die contracting diseases such as whooping cough, typhus, dysentery, or cholera. Moreover starvation was also a big issue for the Indians. The federal government back then promised that their new land (Indian Territory) would remain intact forever, the truth though was quite different, and the more whites had envy of conquest, the more the Indian Territory shrank.…

    American Indian Movement

    American Indian Movement

    Native Americans have felt distress from societal and governmental interactions for hundreds of years. American Indian protests against these pressures date back to the colonial period. Broken treaties, removal policies, acculturation, and assimilation have scarred the indigenous societies of the United States. These policies and the continued oppression of the native communities produced an atmosphere of heightened tension. Governmental pressure for assimilation and their apparent aim to destroy cultures, communities, and identities through policies gave the native people a reason to fight. The unanticipated consequence was the subsequent creation of a pan-American Indian identity of the 1960s. These factors combined with poverty, racism, and prolonged discrimination fueled a resentment that had been present in Indian communities for many years. In 1968, the formation of the American Indian Movement took place to tackle the situation and position of Native Americans in society. This movement gave way to a series of radical protests, which were designed to draw awareness to the concerns of American Indians and to compel the federal government to act on their behalf. The movement's major events were the occupation of Alcatraz, Mount Rushmore, The Trail of Broken Treaties, and Wounded Knee II. These AIM efforts in the 1960s and 1970s era of protest contained many sociological theories that helped and hindered the Native Americans success. The Governments continued repression of the Native Americans assisted in the more radicalized approach of the American Indian Movement. Radical tactics combined with media attention stained the AIM and their effectiveness. Native militancy became a repertoire of action along with adopted strategies from the Civil Rights Movement. In this essay, I will explain the formation of AIM and their major events, while revealing that this identity based social movement's…
