    Building Noah’s Arch would be simpler than trying to catalog the history of Native North Americans in one six-hundred-word academic argument and any effort to do it justice would be futile. Using simplicity and generalities, the narrative of natives in North America is best summed up as a complicated, sophisticated, series of relationships built on mutual survival. Building and preserving trade networks was central to that survival. Peace and conflict frequently resulted as resolutions to these issues. Natives, similar their European counterparts, attempted to manipulate circumstances for their own benefit to strengthen their grip on the trade routes that dominated early American history.…

    Over time, the power that Native women held with in their tribe has unfortunately digressed. During the age of exploration Native women have played key roles in the western fur trade. Native women assisted the fur traders by being liaison between the Europeans and Natives. This role was fundamental in strengthening trade increasing the economic stability of the post. They acted as guides for the European traders who often found themselves in dangerous and unfamiliar territory. Finally, they provided an intimate relationship for the European traders, and played a pragmatic role as a domesticated wife. However in order to fully understand the magnitude of the role Native women played in the fur trade, it is crucial to deconstruct the ethnocentric and biased perspectives of the male-centered, Euro-Canadian interpretation of this part in history.…

    Miller identifies how First Nations had been important military allies for the European powers. They were treated with respect and the government made no effort to interfere with their governance or way of life. After the War of 1812, things changed. Miller states that “now that First Nations were no longer military useful, British planners had hoped to pen them up on reserves, switch their hunting-gathering-trading economy to settled agriculture convert them to Christianity, school their children, and to effect this assimilation so far as possible with their own money.” Miller goes on to argue that the government attacked first Nations’ identity, governance, land-holding, economic activity and cultural practices.…

    Hello, and welcome to “Learn More, Teach More.” It has been more than five centuries since Christopher Columbus reached the Americas. We know a great deal about Columbus, of course, and about the Europeans and Africans who crossed the Atlantic after him. We know much less about the “Indians,” as Columbus mistakenly called them—the people already living in America. But we are learning more all the time, so I want to talk about early contacts between Native Americans and newcomers.…

From Western Europe, the French reached Canada, and since then, many changes were occurred to Canada’s natives. Since the first encounter between the French settlers and Indigenous people, numerous drastic and irreversible changes to the land and society occurred. These changes include the creation of a complex and interdependent relationship between both groups. For example, the French were introduced to a completely different environment, where the natives had to face and adjust to an entirely different race in their land.

    Contrary to the story that European Americans have been all too willing to accept, European immigrants came to inhabited territory in North America. Native Americans were numerous and many dwelt in stable communities. They had cleared land on the eastern seaboard and cultivated extensively. Their nations had established territories which were vital to the hunting component of their economics. These facts were evident to European settlers--especially to those who escaped starvation by accepting as gifts the fruits of Native American agriculture.…

    Even though the first colony of European explorers (in the 11th century) was short lived, this marked the very beginning of a tremendous change in the lives of the Canada’s Indigenous people for many generations to come. A change that may not have been within the reach of their imagination; one that resulted into a cultural genocide. This is a brief timeline of the history of how the Europeans colonized and took over the land and territories from the Indigenous people:…

    The Cree people have an important part within Canadian history. I will prepare an essay based on important points as well as the maintenance of both oral and written history. In the following, I will highlight portions of Cree history to establish an understanding of such a rich culture. I will focus on the teachings of Jim Kanepetetew and how “The Ten Treaty Sticks” have established a foundation of Cree culture. As a basis for guidelines, I will follow the oral teachings of Jim Kanepetetew. As per Jim Kanepetetew of the Onion Lake First Nation, there are unwritten words of history. In this case, where Kanepetetew explains “The Ten Treaty Sticks” it is clear the Cree people had instilled their own culture and beliefs within the treaties and for this essay’s purposes, I will examine the extended implication these practices have had on the Cree people both pre- and post-contact. From this I will create adapt these teachings to those covered throughout the class material.…
