The Clinton Sullivan Campaign

Past History and Present Resistance

By Ariani Gomez, Lucas Pierce, Crystal Grissom, and James Rand

Cornell University is located on land belonging to the Gayogo̱hó:nǫɁ people who were forced out of their homes by the Sullivan Clinton Campaign in 1779. The Sullivan Clinton Campaign was a military expedition with the goal to destroy Indigenous villages and food supply as well as taking as many captives as possible. Despite this, there were virtually no prisoners taken post-campaign. After the devastating genocidal tactics used against them by the brigades, the Gayogo̱hó:nǫɁ have been able to survive and thrive. Through the reconnection to their language and the furthered efforts towards re-education, they have been able to reconnect with their place-based culture despite colonial intervention. Stephen Henhawk was interviewed for a Gayogo̱hó:nǫɁ perspective on the event.
