How the U.S. Army Turned Against the Native Americans: The Darkest Chapter in U.S. History

Dive into one of the most overlooked and devastating periods in American history — when the U.S. Army, once protector of the frontier, turned its mission against the Indigenous nations of this land. From the genocidal campaigns in California’s valleys to forced marches like the Trail of Tears, the era of the Indian Wars, and beyond, this documentary tells the raw truth of how the Cherokee, Lakota, Yuki, Miwok, Pomo and dozens of other tribes endured state-sanctioned violence, removal, and cultural destruction.

Explore how treaties were broken, how the buffalo were slaughtered and reservations created, and how boarding schools, bounties and ethnic cleansing became U.S. policy. History’s darkest chapter unfolds with scenes of massacre, displacement and a government that broke its own promises.

Yet in the shadows of genocide, something remarkable happened. Native nations refused to die. The drumbeat returned. The stories rose. The young reclaimed their languages, artists reclaimed their voice, and Indigenous warriors became scholars and protectors of the land once more.
