The U.S. - Ojibwe Conflict of 1862

Who can blame the tribe? If you read the court cases, tribes tried many times to sue when their goods were not delivered or corrupt tribal agents stood their goods, but the courts usually said the tribes have no standing to sue because they were not US citizens.

I'm Ojibwe from Manitoba Canada and proud of it

I am still so honored to have you do this video explaining what really happened to my people and our motherland my the great sound with you Colin !

My lady is Ojibwe,and now it seems the tribe has turned its back on all off reservation members. A change is needed in leadership,a change is coming to that leadership.

RedLake MN Ojibwe my medicine man told me we came from the Eastcoast because a medicine man had a dream of food that grows on water enough to sustain 100 army of ojibwe ogichidaag they were referring to Mahnomen aka wildrice

Thanks for making this.

I'm right here in a little town called Watkins Minnesota and not far is the little crow memorial. Not far from me at the other end is the memorial to hole-in-the-day. I am looking for more and more land to be given back to the tribes everywhere here.iIt's time for it that and healing

Rip Chief hole in the day my blood line

It will always be my home, I will protect it for as long as live.

Almost makes one wonder if the entire history taught at school was a sugarcoat lie ??

I knew about the Santee-Sioux uprising in western-Minnesota of 1862 but i did not know anything about a conflict with the Ojibwa of Minnesota that same year. What would have happened had the Ojibwa participated in Little Crow`s war against the whites?

Hello everyone I'm looking for information on Joseph Maples one of the Cherokee War Chiefs anything you have

massive ojibwe population here in manitoba

Also, the logging companies only had 'rights' to the dead-standing timber, so they just lit the forests on fire and took what was left. Destroyed much of the tribes land. And the constant dragging of tribal members all the way to Duluth to testify in court, then leaving them to find their own way home.

Do you know how I can find out which Chippewa tribe I come from? There are so many tribes from different “states”. My great great grandmother was born in North Dakota.

I’m anishnabae from Saskatchewan

Good job Hole in the Day. Shouldn't of had to come to that. We know who are to blame. I hope my Ancestors the Marquette had nothing to do with it. I wonder sometimes though since my grandfather and father both died at Mille Lacs of heart attack. One after a good day of fishing and the other after he was up at the casino.

70 years Minnesotan, never knew of this. Thanks. ?- is Walker, Mn. named after this swindling Indian agent?

As of the the wars between us and the white man ,we have to understand wars have been going on all over the world since the beginning of time, the fact and sadness of the crimes committed on my past family were bad is that most if not all treaties were not honored, that being said I consider myself a dual citizen, with my Tribe and American, and look at the many of my brothers and sister's who fought for the USA and our nations kept this country from being taken over by the Germans or Japanese, we still see many in the future that if we are ever divided here and lose the USA who knows if anything will be honored, thinking of that always calms me.

This is a perfect bad situation American civilians shouldn't take over our reservation lands! From a very sad tragic event to a Dakota - Lakota sioux Indian victory song charge the very next day! This is our Dakota sioux Indian people's forgotten tragedy took place many decades after the wounded knee massacre. During the great depression area of the two days of August 1931. On the crow Creek sioux Indian reservation SD northwest of the town stephan. It actually started in spring time the same year the continued harassment by the local towns people and the ranchers in the northern part of the reservation. The Buffalo County war or the great war for the northern part of the reservation! A large encampment of sixty to eighty hunkpati Dakota sioux people were sill definitely living on Cheney rush, a narrow long valley just below the hilly prairie land country along the beautiful Missouri River. On the same day the men left for a hunting trip on the other side of the reservation. Leaving their entire families and young pregnant young ladies behind to watch over the Cheney rush encampment. When a large party of white civilians came with guns and rifles to the Dakota sioux Indian encampment seriously unannounced! They wanted to take away the Dakota sioux Indian people's traditional Buffalo hunting grounds and our rich fertile farm lands along the beautiful Missouri River. An altercation of violence really happened there! Only three American civilians were killed there. They brutal massacred the poor innocent Dakota sioux people's encampment at the Cheney rush tragedy! Then the guilty ones built a huge fire then burned the dead bodies to ashes remains! Then the intruders buried the dead ashes remains on top of the two small rolling hills to the north of the massacre site! The one hill on the left side! Some Dakota sioux elders were young children saw an witness the tragedy unfolded there. Many years later they told the story of the tragedy at the Cheney rush massacre. It's also the most huanted place on the reservation because of the forgotten tragedy at Cheney rush massacre, the second sand creek massacre! There's no memorial site there because of the forgotten Dakota sioux Indian massacre in the 20th century. The white civilians tried to cover up the evidence of the Cheney rush massacre that never happened. The children want an told everyone on the reservation what had happened of our brave Dakota sioux indian people were brutal hateful torture to death at the Cheney rush massacre site! Back from a hunting trip the Dakota sioux men also heard the very sad tragic story! The very next day over three hundred angered Dakota sioux Indian warriors were coming ready to fight against the American intruders! On the prairie land country site near the massacre site the American civilians had been surprised so many more warriors were arriving there! Iron Nation's kul wicasa oyate Lakota sioux Indian warriors may have assisted in the fighting to! After a running battle into a full retreat probably more Americans civilians were killed there! In sioux warriors favor the American civilians intruders escape or fled back across the reservation border lands to thier own ranches and towns never wanting to take back the hunkpati Dakota sioux people's traditional reservation Buffalo hunting grounds and our rich fertile farm lands along the beautiful Missouri River. The last true victory song of August 1931! The Cheney rush massacre victory site is still there today along the highway to the capital of Pierre SD north to the small rolling hill secret mass grave site of our people's burned remains as a memorial site to our Dakota and Lakota sioux people who all wrongfully inccently murdered by American civilians passed an present day! The same place just south old fort Thompson stockade during the early 1860s the poor Isanti Dakota sioux indian people and winnebago Indians were sent for three year imprison encampment they entirely served there! Many Dakota sioux Indian people died of hunger and sickness of unmarked grave sites the very sad historical events at crow creek res. SD. Our elders Dakota sioux people true oral stories to the young generations at the crow creek sioux Indian reservation of South Dakota. My historical information for today. Have a great fabulous wonderful day.
