Description

When the Mexican – American War ended, the United States obtained territory from Mexico that was home to both settlers and Apache tribes. As United States citizens began moving in, U.S. military and warriors of the Apache tribes quarreled in battles that stretched from southern Arizona to New Mexico and across the Mexican border. Dr. Ronald Lah discusses the broader context of what Native Americans were facing and subject to from European and United States conquest and expansionism. Dr. Lah is an anthropologist, ethnomusicologist, living history re-enactor, and former teacher of New Mexico history.
