For anyone who was confused about what the tribes were called, the tribes were called The Potawatomi, The Winnebago, The Ojibwe, The Mississauga, The Huron, and The Iroquois Confederacy. Hope this was helpful for y'all!

History Channel...where are your closed captions? I am unable to show this to some of the students in my class due to lack of accessibility.

I'm watching a show called Hawkeye on a streaming service right now about this conflict. It's more of a side story than the main one, but this 3 minute clip shown me history is steeped with so many fascinating stories.

From Pittsburgh area and I as well as I'm sure alot of others weren't ever informed of even half of this content lol is cool to actually learn the real backgrounds and inspiration for names of areas affiliated and influenced by this

[okivster]

Who else had to watch it again because you forgot how to pay attention for 3 minutes and 22 seconds

[Fourbix]

1:10 if i understood it correctly and if my memory is correct, i don't believe that "executing a man in the back who came to apply a peace treaty" is what we could call a battle.

[johnmiranda]

The victors write history. What REALLY happened?
