Chief Joseph, a leader of the Nez Perce tribe, became famous for his resistance against the U.S. government's attempts to force his people onto reservations in the late 19th century. His most notable moment came during the 1877 Nez Perce War, particularly during the retreat known as the "Flight of Nez Perce," where he led his people on a remarkable journey across several states. His eloquent speeches and a poignant surrender address, famously stating, "I will fight no more forever," highlighted the struggles of Native Americans and garnered national attention.
