    The American Revolution and the Survival of Native Nations

    Lensic Performing Arts Center 211 W. San Francisco St., Santa Fe, United States

    Kathleen DuVal | The American Revolution and the creation of the United States brought unprecedented challenges to Indigenous lives, land, and sovereignty in North America. Tecumseh was one of many Native prophets and leaders in the 18th and 19th centuries who urged all Native North Americans to band together as one people—one race—in order to protect themselves and their continent. Looking back, we might imagine that Native North Americans would have been better off heeding Tecumseh’s call for unity and uniformity. But in fact, the preservation of distinctions among their many hundreds of nations, communities, languages, and identities helped Native nations to survive through the 19th and 20th centuries and into the present and future.
