St. Clair?s Defeat

Back in the day on November 4th, 1791, the armed forces of the United
States suffered their worst defeat ever at the hands of native peoples.
George Washington, as the first president of the new nation, called upon a
trusted Revolutionary War veteran Arthur St. Clair to pacify lands
northwest of the Ohio River. The Western Confederacy of American Indians
never recognized the claims on their land by the U.S. St. Clair, who had
been governor of the Northwest Territory in question, assembled a force
nearly 2,000 men to construct and fortify a number of outpost forts in
advancing on natives. By November 3rd, the revolutionary war veteran only
commanded a force of 1,400 men and settled on the banks of the Wabash
River. The very next day native warriors led by Little Turtle and Blue
Jacket advanced and routed St. Clair?s forces in a three-hour lopsided
victory.

President Washington was enraged as the losses would be more than three
times those totaled in the Battle of the Little Bighorn nearly a century
later. St. Clair was forced to resign from the army and native peoples
successfully resisted incursions on their land until suffering defeat
three years later in the Battle of Fallen Timbers.

For Uprising, this is your truth professa? saying it?s no mystery why they
conceal our people?s history
