| Sumario: | This article presents an exploration into the cultural resistance of the Hualapai Indian nation to colonial pressures of relocation and assimilation through the narrative histories of the La Paz Run of 1875. Details are given outlining the events of the Hualapai escape from reservations 200 miles away to their home land of Arizona and its continued memorial celebration. The event is analyzed in regards to its significance in terms of an anti-colonial action and the continued manifestation of the cultural importance of place as a feature of collective ethnic memory within its retelling. |
