Facing removal onto a reservation in 1877, around 800 Nimíipuu (Nez Perce) people fight and flee west into the mountains. Led by Chief Joseph, Looking Glass, White Bird and Toohoolhoolzote, the bands fight US troops and trek for months across the changing American landscape-from Idaho through Yellowstone and toward Canada- in one of the great tragic sagas of our time. "An unpardonable crime" in the title is a quote from the NYT excerpt shared around 14:30 in the video.

We should have a video about Skanderbeg, it would be great
Ngl I nearly cried at this 😭 😢, thanks for this video
You should do one on the battle of Wake Island (ww2)
The level of storytelling and immersion is unmatched.
Thanks! Several months of work went into this one & 100+ hours of Joe making the art. Glad you liked it.
15:53: Wow. To think that Chief Joseph’s foes would show regret and remorse for their deeds is something I never would’ve thought.
It’s one of the things that drew me to the story-to know that many of the perpetrators felt they had violated even the standards of their time. Howard would later call on Congress to pay reparations to Chief Joseph’s band.
Watch Hostiles, it’s a great depiction of just that.
@@Sunavagun341Hostiles is fantastic
Lamentation after the fact is worthless.
That just proves that the people who participated in the genocides knew what they were doing (obviously). Unfortunately US history is Whitewashed for a reason.
Been working on this one for several months and very excited to share it with you all.
The effort you put into these videos is readily apparent; this is one of the best all-around channels on YT in my opinion.
I especially love topics like this one because, as someone who regularly drives all around the central and western US, I find myself often thinking about the people who lived (and in some cases, still live) in these lands. And these videos are unmatched in illustrating the history and emotion that books on these topics just can't.
Fantastic work. The Native American stories are my favorite by far.
Thank you again for featuring my music in your work! Very honored to be a part of your offerings!
Thanks Jonny! Your music adds something incredible to this video. Happy to give you a shoutout later this week as well!
I agree! Your music is beautiful and inspiring
Your music adds so much to the storytelling
@JonnyLipford the music melded with the story perfectly, well done
@jonnyLipford is your music the stuff playing at 11:24?
"Six attackers would receive medals of honor" is a really chilling sentiment
The military at the time, only had one medal the Medal of Honor. Handed them out like candy back then. Unlike now.
Wounded Knee was far more egregious than this, but the poster above me is correct: The U.S. Military didn't really have an array of medals for more specific acts like it does today, so thus, the Medal of Honor was far more liberally given than today.
My grandma was fuil blooded Nez Perce and growing up she would always tell me stories of our people. How proud she was of our heritage and made me feel the same pride. Thank you for your honest and non biased content on the subject. You've done a great job and it matches exactly how I was told about our history.
Thanks for the kind words. Glad you liked the video.
The story Chief Joseph and the Nez Perce is truly one of the most interesting and fascinating stories. To think they traveled 1000 miles in just months is mind boggling. Love your content, keep up the great work.
Not just that but the elevation of that terrain is unforgiving. They did not just span the flats. They went up and down and up and down with three generations of their families for a good deal of it. That is underappreciated
Thank you for not using AI art
Never will! Planning to do a livestream soon diving into the research and process behind some of this artwork
@@HistoryDoseThank you, I hope I can catch it ❤
@@HistoryDose It pains me so much when there's a youtube history video that immediately shoots itself in the foot with AI generated medieval fantasy pictures. Besides, Joe's paintings feel real.
@@disconnected7737 whose channel this might be?
The art gives genuine life to your videos and I hope you continue on. Please upload the live stream as a video as I often can't make streams due to life commitments but would love to know more about the artistic process that produces these amazing works.
Some of the things the Americans said about this shows that it wasn’t just normal for “the times”. People knew just how bad it was back then as well.
Nothing compared to the Mongols
It was a war and we conquered them the same way practically every other country in the world came to be.
@@ut000bs No. The big issue is that we made peace with tribes to keep them from attacking until we were ready to steam roll them. So, it wasn't normal war for some of these tribes. Others, sure. We met them, fought them, conquered them. But, stories like this one piss me off pretty badly. Then I read dumbass comments from people like you.... lol
@@ut000bs so that’s it? Might makes right? You can kill anyone and anything and take whatever you want as long as no one can stop you?
@@kevinlau9018In the world of warfare that is the way it has always been and I would hope you already know that.
If you can ever see this land along the Bitterroot mountains, you should. From Yellowstone North into Canada along the Bitterroots is in my opinion the most beautiful land in North America.
Joe and I (the two-brother team that is History Dose) visited Yellowstone last year and it was otherworldly. It’s part of why I devoted so much time and art toward conveying the beauty of the national park here
Day After Tomorrow Howard is such a funny nickname that Nez Perce gave to Howard. It shows that even in the most serious of times us indigenous people don't lose our sense of humor.
Im a proud Army veteran, but this sure was a dark time in our history. My God these people were warriors! Honorable, skilled, and steadfast.
I wish I could say the same for the Army. Those "Blue Coats" were evil, cowardly, and ruthless.
And to think that those soldiers were awarded the Congressional Medal of Honour for committing evil, cowardly, and ruthless acts. Given that even the generals who led the attacks against the Nez Perce later regretted it, I can only hope that the soldiers who were decorated for murdering indigenous women and children never wore or displayed their medals.
the videos on the American Indian Wars that you do always make me so sad. crazy how even during those times most of the military knew that what they were doing was messed up
Nothing compared to the Mongols lol
@@magnusallmighty5000 It's far worse lmfao. The Mongols had a high body count because they fought enemies who were near their level and wouldn't submit, hence the massacres to show them a lesson. Once they were conquered the Mongols let their subjects worship whoever they wanted and let them keep their land.
By the early 1800's the balance between America and natives was already lopsided. They had an advantage that the Mongols didn't over their enemies. Yet still they killed a proportional amount, while doing what even the brutal Mongols wouldn't. Kick people out of their own land while trying to erase their culture. American settler culture from independence till the Spanish War was ridiculously evil. Look through the annals of history and you'd be hard-pressed to find situations as inhumane
@conayinka no it'spretty common, they razed cities, burned the best librarie of the world, built towers and pyramids of severed heads, massacred millions of innocent people, used prisoners of war as human shields, in the conquest of khawarezmeia they resettled the population of that land across the empire and enslaved them too, pretty standard stuff
@@magnusallmighty5000 I am no Mongol apologizer, I know the sins which they answer for in hell. But to reiterate a point I made, these things only happen to those who do not submit. Such as Khwarezm's king, who killed an envoy - and the Caliph who turned them away. And they never removed populations.
Secondly, to pretend the Americans did not do the same is ridiculous. They almost caused the extinction of an ancient species (buffalo), just to get Indians out. They removed them from their homes and made them walk a deadly trail, just to resettle them again. All while killing those who resisted, almost committing cultural genocide were it not for liberal ideas
@conayinka I'm saying this is not new, plenty of examples in history and I argue the Mongols are worse because of numbers
I first heard about this when I saw the film I Will Fight No More Forever.
It's worth noting that part of the reason why the Nez Percé were so effective was that they'd fought along with US soldiers in previous conflicts. This, in addition to their aid given to the Lewis and Clark expedition and pledges of peace and friendship made to them in the past, adds another layer to the betrayal they were dealt.
I cannot give you and your brother enough praise, these videos are absolutely phenomenal. Keep up the great work!
As a South African, I truly feel bad for the Native Americans. That could've been us at one point, but we managed to survive long enough to become the masters of our land once more.
Incredible! What a time we live in that we can experience content like this for free! Well done boys keep it up
Much appreciated! Lot of work went into this one.
I mean, this was taught in public school but yeah it's a nice video. I remember doing a lot of work on Chief Joseph, maybe it's because I'm from Washington but I would think this is taught all over the US.
I loved every minute, even though I teared up. I appreciate the history. There lives were lost but you speak them back into existence
I love it ❤ thank you for your kind words and amazing storytelling in regards to us Natives. It's beautiful. Do you mind if I share your videos with my class on the reservation? I am a teacher and healer here. Aho bazhoo, my Kindred.
Thanks for your kind comment. Yes, you are more than welcome to share it with anyone.
If I may, to add for horse lovers, the US army specifically ended the original appaloosa line during this time period. It was saved only by more rough breeding by the Palouse tribe. They also now breed the Nez Perce horse and can be bought by the tribe itself. They have a website for it.
If I was the creators of this video, I would consider it the highest honor and recognition of the quality of my work for a teacher and tribal member wanting to share my work there.
As a fellow educator, much respect to you. I wish you and your students the best in these current interesting times. 📚🦋
This video is great. A video on the last free apaches in mexico who didn't surrender till 1933 would be interesting
A History Dose day is always a good day. I get lost in your storytelling, artwork and music. Simply beautiful as always.
Cheers from Australia.
As always much appreciated gents, good to see you again and keep the greatness coming in 🤙🏾✊🏾
My absolute favorite History Channel, thanks for all the hard work y'all do
The past of my people (american natives as a whole) is one full of blood, sweat and tears, there's rarely a happy ending, it's not for everyone and I understand why some don't like speaking of it and/or hearing of it, people don't like the truth and would rather ignore it
I am very surprised and quite disappointed that this channel isn’t a lot bigger, I mean this beats a lot of professional channels, and the immersion is just beautiful. Hats off to you guys
Thanks! It’s just two brothers on this team! The views, comments and likes help to grow the channel :)
A truly heart breaking story, thank you so much for sharing❤
Aaah, the videos you guys make are always a treat. Great ambience, beautiful visuals, and I always learn something new. Keep doing what you're doing!
Thanks so much. We’ll absolutely keep the videos coming.
🙏🏻🙏🏽🙏
Another phenomenal video from you two! I read that around half of the United States land is still untouched by development and that really brings into perspective the the extremes loss of life and culture that occurred to remove people from their land to develop nothing.
PLEASE do a season of full length documentaries with PBS! The story telling, the artistry, the music bring a visceral experience that brings history into the present. Such talent deserves a wider audience.
Thanks! Send me a contract and I’ll sign! 😀
GOAT history channel
When I hear stories like this, I think about how my people (Tainos) from Puerto Rico lived their lives before they met their fate?
Who was I descended from? How did my people live? Who or what did they worship? How did they go about their daily routine in life? I'll never know..
Buddy you could but you don t actually care that much
@@nikprudhomme3735 The Taino were wiped out by Columbus and Spain. Almost none of their original culture survives. Even a simple google search could tell you as much.
I just love the care and passion you put on makin' these videos. Ya sir, makes me even more proud of my indigenous roots 🧡🧡💪
I’ve grown to really love and respect the nimiipuu (Nez Perce). I knew about them and the war against them when I was a kid. It is a sad story. I’ve done a good bit of my own research as best I can. Killer Instinct too made me get back into researching the Nez Perce. Thunder (hinmatoom) being one of my favorite Native American characters in video games. With the 2013 Killer Instinct, it did the character and Nez Perce justice as they were in contact with the Nez Perce Nation when making and designing the character. Plus I think it is cool the character shares part of his name with Chief Joseph. His theme song, Hinnamatoom, by Mick Gordon features a Nez Perce tribal member and has to be one of my favorite songs of all time. If you haven’t listened to it, I would recommend it.
@HistoryDose I really enjoyed this video, thank you. The one thing that draws me to your channel is how you (somewhat poetically) both capture & emphasize the horror & brutality of events. A tale of history not written by the victor, but a tale written by the widows and orphans. Just pure devastation all around.
(not referring to any group here, just generally speaking the innocent on any side of a conflict)
There is no innocent just the victims of war like any other conflict in history. it just seems to usually favour the more advanced and more equipped force that's why most people support Israel instead of Palestine you can just tell what the outcome is going to be before it even happens never mind all the American weapons there being given progress works in weird ways it is destined to be like that they could've just let hammas slide and dealt with them like any other terrorist group but instead they chose to annihilate them they where just looking for an excuse to how else are we supposed to turn the Muslims gay ?
@@TheRealElDiablo999 Schizo.
@@batrachian149 lmfao you've been on CZcams for ten years collecting your shitty playlists you've made public that nobody is ever going to want to see I think it's time you leave your house bro

@@TheRealElDiablo999 Rent free. Stay mad~
The settlers were so awful for kicking the tribe off their ancestral lands in the Wallowa Valley , and then having the nerve to name their new town "Joseph".
Brilliant and tragic - more native histories of all kinds, please!
Thanks for this video, I had tears in my eyes 😢
Another beautiful, heart-wrenching episode. Absolutely loving the videos on native peoples, History Dose!
Man I just love the level of production quality you provide us with, please never stop!
Great video, fellas. Every time I see your work I am so impressed by your visuals.
Happiness is a new episode of History Dose 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Damn CZcams... didn't notify me of this until a day later. I'm subbed with the bell on and I was on CZcams most of yesterday.
Great video. It's really heartbreaking to hear stories like this. It's great to know their story won't be forgotten because of amazing and passionate work like this.
Thanks Strat! That could explain why it’s currently 10 out 10th place in views for our most recent videos 😕
@@HistoryDose yeah I thought it was strange - I usually see your stuff when it's less than an hour old. Hopefully the algorithm loosens up for you guys
I nearly cried watching this video. Beautifully narrated, painted, and explained.
I am so grateful there are channels like yours to tell the histories that are still not getting told. I saw your post about the algorithm failing to support you guys-please know that you are providing invaluable service to thousands of people, though CZcams does not seem to understand what it owes to quality content.
Thanks so much. This video was very much a passion project, published knowing it wouldn’t go viral. This one was more or less a successor to the Collapse of the Plains American Indians video
Teaching history like this with a story, and great art makes everything so much more interesting. If only they did this is school 😥
Truth. We need history taught in ways that bring people to life. These brothers do such an amazing job of getting into the hearts and minds of the people whose history their telling.
I really love this channel for so many reasons thank you guys you’re the best
Thank you for creating this. I was born and raised and reside on the Camas Prairie bordering the Nez Perce Indian Reservation.
I hike the White Bird Battlefield. We use to own a home above one of the battle sites on the Clearwater River.
It is so completely heartbreaking to know that these beautiful people had their land taken, their animals killed off, and lost so many family members.
Outstanding work. Sharing these stories is good for everyone. I am especially touched this morning & will continue to share your channel with everyone who is open to learning and being better.
I’ve seen so many history channels on CZcams over the last 15 years but this is by far the best there is
You guys are the best. This channel is like a dream come true. Crazy that the history channel with millions to make content have never produced anything that touches History Dose.
Really loving all the history of the Indian Wars and Indigenous History y'all have done over the past year or so. Not the happiest subject, but none the less interesting.
This is an incredible video. You have some of the highest quality content on CZcams in my opinion. The topics, research, storytelling, artwork, sound are all top tier.
It’s really too bad that this video isn’t getting shown/sent out. It’s an important and impactful topic that everyone should know of. Hope it gets fixed
I LOVE THIS CHANNEL! I think it is very immersive, knowledge filled, and filled with great story telling!
Your ability to set the scene is unparalleled. Amazing video!
Another beautifully told yet tragic story. Thank you. I always look forward to your videos.
This was beautifully done. Thank you
This was truly amazing. Thank you so much for this. It means so much to me ❤
hands down one if not the best history channel to watch. i actually feel bad for what happend to the natives. no other history lesson really hits me like history dose. amazing work
I believe Joseph's real name means thunder rolling through the mountains? He must have been such an impressive figure. My 26 year old son is named Joseph after him.❤ Thanks for telling this history,very well done.What an aristocratic and proud people.❤
I wrote my A-Level essay on the Native American genocide and, amidst all the horrors and injustice, it was the Nez Perces story that sickened me most. A people who wanted to retain their homes, a small sliver of land, were ravaged and eventually broken for what? Some gold and darker dirt. We look on such mindless savagery with disdain, and yet we allow atrocities of similar depravity to occur over and over.
Excellent story telling. The artwork and diagrams make it all the more immersive. Great stuff
That picture at 6:48 is astounding! I had always known that the massacre of the buffalo was something people did to make way for cattle, but that picture takes my mind's understanding of those events to a new level!
Another absolutely stunning video with breathtaking artwork.
I enjoy your videos, all are well done but none have made me tear like this one has. I look forward to more content in the future.
I would love to see a video about the Haitian Revolution. Haiti is going through hell right now and it’s a very underrepresented event despite its relevance.
“ The more Indians we kill today, the less we have to kill tomorrow “- Sherman to Abraham Lincoln 1864 ( source Library of congress) Lincoln declared his genocidal war that same year. Sherman was absolutely evil, but one thing he could never accomplish was breaking Native American resolve. We shall remain and we will continue our fight to exist. A.I.M. ✊🏽🪶
Best history channel out there! Love your content bro
Taking time out of my day to like and comment on every video, you guys deserve it
Hand down the best history channel on CZcams. Thank you for all yourd hard work making this awesome videos
Thanks! These take a lot of work!!
Really like your content always high quality and educational. Could you do one on the English civil war 1642 - 1651 ?
Great video, once again!
Love this, fantastic content!
Thanks for this. It's great.
This is so awesome Always appreciate your work.
I very much appreciate how you present your videos. MANY channels convey the facts of a historical event. MANY openly take a modern stance and color the story with their own views. I feel you do an excellent job of pacing and inflection that make each story rich; you also present enough perspective for the viewer to see the morals at play and come to conclusions from the account without laboriously pointing them out. It's subtle and mature and shows you expect a reasoned thinking viewership. Please keep up with such high quality work; I'll need some references to adequately teach my kiddos some complicated history.
Great content, keep it up. I appreciate any history nerds out there.
Great video!
Great work 👏🏽
I just dream, the day you will cover the Chichimeca wars of nothern mexico. A fierce nation that was never defeated by the Spanish conquistadors, even with the help of other tribes. Love ya style ❤
Yes the chichimecas are my favorite over looked group of tribes.
Sounds interesting
Incredible video! U are amazing
the music, art, and narration is all amazing. great video man
Much appreciated! Months of work into this one.
One of my favorite historical stories. Well done!
Another amazing video guys. Bravo.
amazing video, great watch!
It's a pleasure to watch your videos! How do you come up with such interesting topics?
Excellent video, thank you!
Don't know why you guys aren't getting more views, happy to Leo comment to help out. Love your stuff
I have to say, this is really full done. I will use in my history classes. Thanks!
When we speak of this time it is important to recognize that many of the perpetrators of these crimes fall well within the category of “those who know better”. These barbarities occurred within the light of history. Not some distant, alien time.
Incredible, thank you for sharing.
Excellent video friend ❤
Absolutely amazing
By far the best history videos on CZcams.
Amazing work! Everyone needs to comment and like, this should have way more views
Jeez guys, another heavy story most beautifully written and the art is superb as always ❤
16 minutes seems like eternity when waiting for History Dose video
Awesome video thank you for this piece of history
Another amazing video. As a Native American it’s very interesting to hear about how skilled fighters they were
This video is so good i cant explain it. A sad and heartbreaking story and wonderfully drlievered. 👏
Amazing , Narrative and Visuals
Your videos are absolutely fantastic! It would be interesting to see a video on Stalinism, The Soviet Union and the Cold War.
Thanks! We do have a video on a Cold War spy that’s worth checking out!
Your videos are so entertaining and well put together. My favorite CZcams channel
I appreciate it! If you’re an O’Brien, be sure to watch our video on Brian Boru!
