Very Good, very good indeed. My Father was from Central Illinois, or South n West, of Terra Haute, Indiana. Myself I've always been fascinated, with Our Native American, History. In a personal interest way. I would like too travel back to my Father's Home Township. Then go back East, with the aim of Venturing too Blooming Valley, PA ., in Northern Pennsylvania, too trace Our Families, origins n Lineage from that point Back. As I'm getting Older now! I would like too complete this Bucket list desire in say the next few Years. Your Historical Duc. on the Battle of the Wabash, & the Other ensuing, conflicts with the Native Tribe's, of the then Northwest area at that Time. Just gave me a Hunch, or intuitive intuition, that there might just be something of a Quest nature here? One of not just involving, Me & My personal Families inquisitive, need to find out. This is a thought that has been going on in my mind, for quite some Year's. To close I will say Thank You, very much for the prior Duc,& Video information. Wyoming, Robert, 🇨🇦🇺🇸🇨🇦🇺🇸👀👀🤔🤔👍👍🙏🙏
I am a Son of a New Zealand Maori and Dutch parents, Unfortunately most but not all Colonials have Never looked at the World through the eyes of the Aboriginal peoples that Lived on the Land during the events which unfolded during Most Colonial Expansions. The Treaties that were made then Broken or Allowed to be Broken, The Promises Made without any Long-term Intention. Please Realise that in another 200 plus years our actions will be considered as Uncivilised and Inhumane also.
Well said. I’m European and Amerindian mixed. I have three half-Polynesian kids living in Hawai’i. Many terrible and inexcusable things were done to the indigenous people. 🤙🏽
I thought Fallen Timbers was 1794 not 1791 . The battle was already lost and the British were kinda busy with a war with the French and we had signed a non aggression treaty with the fledgling US . The British honour treaties not dishonour them like Americans did with the native Americans . The US policy of expansionist genocide was a great start for the nation .
It is a shame we couldn't have delt with the Indians in a more equitable manner and and learned to live together and share the land. But as I review this whole thing, it would be difficult to deal with a people who were bred to war. The fact that they slaughtered the women and children at the Wabash suggests that it would have been difficult to live together such a wild people. A good follow on to this video would be to read David McCullough's "The Pioneers" about settlers in Ohio, who were initially welcomed by the Indians, but then attacked and massacred them without warning. In a number of cases the Indians had sat down to breakfast with their white friends before slaughtering them. Basically, the conflict was the result of a clash of cultures.
"Such a wild people?" Who are you referring to?🤔. How can a people, living peacefully on their own land, then being encroached upon by outsiders, be considered "wild"? What an offensive description. If someone broke into your home and you aggressively chased them out, would that make you "wild"? No. It would make you intelligent and protective of your family. That's what these natives were doing, protecting their people and their way of life. How dare someone come along and label them "wild". What an insult
America was the name given to all the New World lands...North, South, & Central...we are specifically the United States of America. I consider the Ecuadorian and Mexicans that I work with "Americans" too, 100%
From the opening minutes I could tell that this was a video slanted heavily towards the “native” Indians. I have a hard time sympathizing with a people’s who own lore talks of genociding the “Red-haired giants” who were indigenous to the lands before them. Spare me, hard pass
Well produced. Enlightening, with the need for perspective.
Good video 👍🏼

when you do a history project could you leave out the self loathing and just get to the history of the battle
History is Biography, Jane. It's not a list of dates and locations and the Quartermaster's bill.

The natives never even lived like that amongst each other before the Europeans arrived. Warfare was a cornerstone of tribal societies

Women can't get along with men, these days. Is that a "clash of cultures"?
There was no "America"in 1763
Actually there was America in 1763. Ask Amerigo Vespucci. However, there was no United States yet.
America was the name given to all the New World lands...North, South, & Central...we are specifically the United States of America. I consider the Ecuadorian and Mexicans that I work with "Americans" too, 100%
