The Native People's Caravan was a 1974 cross-country protest that saw Indigenous activists travel from Vancouver to Ottawa to meet with parliamentarians and demand justice for Indigenous peoples. In addition to delivering its demands to the federal government, the Caravan aimed to unite Indigenous peoples and call national attention to the injustices they faced. The Caravan culminated in a protest at Parliament that was met with a violent response from the RCMP.
