'He would not give up as long he had a single charge of powder...'
In this episode, we dive into the story of Abiaka, the Seminole warrior and chieftain who refused to be conquered.
With Osceola gone, Abiaka and Billy Bowlegs fought tirelessly against the US government's attempts to remove the Seminole people from their land, and their resistance inspired countless others to join the cause.
Despite being outnumbered and outgunned, these two Chieftains refused to surrender, and fought with all their might to maintain their tribe's freedom.
From the brutal Battle of Lake Okeechobee to the forced relocation of thousands of Seminole people to Indian Territory, join us for the gripping conclusion of The Seminole Wars and The Unconquered People.
