Join the Arizona Historical Society and Dr. Paul Conrad for an installment of AHS Summer History Talks: Spanish Period in Arizona!
This presentation will consider the history and legacies of Spanish colonialism in Arizona and the Southwest from the vantage point of Apache history. Apache (Ndé) peoples are known for their independence from and resistance to Spanish, Mexican, and U.S. governance. Yet colonial efforts to subjugate them—including through long-distance forced migrations--were also deeply impactful to their communities. Dr. Paul Conrad will discuss this history through the stories of specific individuals and the broader themes their life experiences reveal.
