Tribes united in the face of adversity from "summary" of Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee by Dee Brown

In the midst of great suffering and loss, the tribes of the Native American nations found a common bond that united them in the face of adversity. Despite their differences in language, culture, and traditions, they recognized that they were all facing a common enemy – the relentless encroachment of white settlers on their lands. The tribes understood that they needed to stand together in order to survive the onslaught of violence and oppression that threatened their very existence. They banded together, forming alliances and coalitions that transcended their individual tribal identities. Through these alliances, they were able to pool their resources, share their knowledge, and support each other in times of need. The tribes also recognized the importance of solidarity in the face of adversity. They understood that by standing united, they could present a stronger front against their common enemy. They fought side by side, offering each other protection and assistance in times of crisis. Despite the overwhelming odds stacked against them, the tribes remained steadfast in their commitment to each other. They refused to let their differences divide them, choosing instead to focus on their shared goal of preserving their way of life and protecting their people. In the end, it was this unity that allowed the tribes to persevere in the face of unimaginable hardship. They drew strength from each other, finding solace in the knowledge that they were not alone in their struggle. Together, they faced their collective adversity with courage and resilience, determined to uphold their traditions and defend their homelands at all costs.
