After 30 years of battling U.S. government troops in order to protect his tribe's homeland, Geronimo and the Apaches became worn out and overpowered. On September 4th, 1886, Geronimo finally decided to surrender to these troops, and General Nelson Miles accepted this surrender. Geronimo was the last Native American warrior to surrender to U.S. forces, signaling the end of the Indian Wars. ]]> 2021-09-27 11:54:07 UTC https://padlet.com/ayushipatel11/npeiv4ftrq10s3d5/wish/1770825764 ayushipatel11 https://padlet.com/ayushipatel11/npeiv4ftrq10s3d5/wish/1770826408 November 29th, 1864
For a very long time, there were disputes over who controlled the Great Plains of eastern Colorado. The Fort Laramie Treaty of 1851 gave ownership of this land to the Cheyenne and Arapahoe Native Americans, but white settlers were constantly in the area, with the hopes of mining gold. This increased the tensions between settlers and Native Americans, leading to the sand creek massacre, where Colonel John Chivington attacked the Native American tribes. ]]> 2021-09-27 11:54:25 UTC https://padlet.com/ayushipatel11/npeiv4ftrq10s3d5/wish/1770826408 ayushipatel11 https://padlet.com/ayushipatel11/npeiv4ftrq10s3d5/wish/1770827208 October 5, 1877
The Nez Perce were forced out of their homeland for relocation in Idaho, however, along the way, Chief Joseph found out that some of his people had attacked and killed a band of white settlers. In order to protect his people, he attempted to lead them to the Canadian border, where they could then cross over and be safe. Unfortunately, about 40 miles away from the border, U.S. Army troops surrounded them. Chief Joseph then surrendered, and him and his people were relocated to a barren reservation. ]]> 2021-09-27 11:54:45 UTC https://padlet.com/ayushipatel11/npeiv4ftrq10s3d5/wish/1770827208 ayushipatel11 https://padlet.com/ayushipatel11/npeiv4ftrq10s3d5/wish/1770827590 June 25-26th, 1876
Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse, Native American leaders, strongly encouraged Native Americans to resist being confined to reservations. Therefore, many tribes failed to move to their reservations by the deadlines they were given. As a result, U.S. army troops, led by Lieutenant Custer, were sent to take care of the situation. This battle marked the most significant Native American win and the worst U.S. Army defeat. ]]> 2021-09-27 11:54:57 UTC https://padlet.com/ayushipatel11/npeiv4ftrq10s3d5/wish/1770827590 ayushipatel11 https://padlet.com/ayushipatel11/npeiv4ftrq10s3d5/wish/1770828168 December 29th, 1890
Many Sioux practiced the Ghost Dance in order to keep their traditional customs alive, but the U.S. government did not approve of this. A few days before the Battle of Wounded Knee, reservation police killed Sitting Bull, because they had mistaken him for a Ghost Dancer. Then, on December 29th, 1890, the U.S. Army's 7th Cavalry surrounded a band of Ghost Dancers, demanding they surrender their weapons. A fight broke out amongst the groups, leading to a massacre where around 300 Lakota people were attacked by U.S. army soldiers. ]]> 2021-09-27 11:55:09 UTC https://padlet.com/ayushipatel11/npeiv4ftrq10s3d5/wish/1770828168
