The history of the indigenous peoples of Florida is a profound narrative of resilience and resistance, marked by the tumultuous encounters with European colonizers. This episode elucidates the initial contact between indigenous tribes and European explorers, detailing how the arrival of these outsiders catalyzed a series of violent conflicts, notably the Creek Wars and the subsequent Seminole Wars. The Seminole tribe, emerging as a formidable force, not only resisted colonization but also provided refuge to enslaved Africans, thus complicating the socio-political landscape of the region. Through an examination of the three Seminole Wars, we will explore the tenacity of the Seminole people in maintaining their autonomy against overwhelming odds. Ultimately, their legacy as the "Unconquered People" underscores a poignant chapter in the broader narrative of native resistance within the annals of American history.
