Discovery Channel - How the West Was Lost (DC) (1995) Part 2 I Will Fight No More, Forever
Witness the tragic fall of the great Indian nations. Share the tales of the “conquering” of the American West from the Native American perspective. How The West Was Lost is a series about the westward expansion of colonialists across the North American continent during the latter half of the 19th Century from the experience and point of of view of the Native American peoples. It is the story of how mutual misunderstanding, incomprehension and differing viewpoints contributed to bring into conflict an expanding nation and the land's indigenous population. Each episode examines a separate tribe or battle and features interviews with descendants of legendary Native American warriors.
Part 2 I Will Fight No More, Forever
This episode follows the 1,600-mile path taken by the Nez Perce 114 years ago, as they fought 13 battles with the United States Army, for the right to the Nez Perce homeland. The Nez Perce are a Native American tribe of the northwest who were first visited by white missionaries in the 1830s. The white men presented the Nez Perce with two treaties which resulted in the loss of 90 percent of their sacred land, and then the further loss of 90 percent of what was left. The Nez Perce, who became Christians, accepted their fate but others embarked on the 1,600-mile war path. The Nez Perce outmarched, outwitted and outfought the US Army for four months before surrendering.
