Examples of Indigenous resistance movements from the colonial period to the post-Revolutionary War period include the Pueblo Rebellion in 1680, where the Pueblo people in present-day New Mexico successfully drove out Spanish colonizers from their land. The Iroquois Confederacy also resisted European colonization, initially forming alliances with the French and later fighting against the Americans in the Revolutionary War.
These resistance movements were often sparked by mistreatment and abuses by European colonizers, including land grabs, forced labor, and violence. Indigenous peoples organized themselves, utilizing their knowledge of the land and warfare tactics to defend their territories and ways of life.
Despite facing overwhelming odds and often being outnumbered and outgunned, Indigenous resistance movements were significant in challenging colonial powers and asserting their sovereignty. These movements laid the groundwork for future struggles for Indigenous rights and self-determination.
