Native American Tribe Analysis
A long time ago, many ages before the human race conquered the world, was a Native American village. Life was easy in the Native American village. The Indians had ample food supply, several skilled craftsman, and excellent hunters. Then on one refreshing morning, the spiritual mother brought a pair of twins into the living world. Nothing such had ever been before, the newborns were the first to have been seen alike. The whole tribe was in shock, they didn't know what to do or what it meant at first. The tribe then started to mumble and whisper to each other in disbelief to what happened.
The Chief had then outspoken something great. “The brilliant gods has gifted the village with marvelous newborns and that it may mean something important

His official name being, Tisquantum, he was part of the Pawtuxet tribe before he was kidnapped along with several other Indians and transported to Spain.

    In the late 1800s, Americans were continuing to expand Westward as they “worried that the Northeast was overpopulated and that, as a result, the country would face the same problems as Europe—class conflict, poverty, and urban ills” (Document I). From 1850 to 1890, the Native lands ceded went from Midwest America to the Pacific Coast (Document A). This presented a similar problem that they had faced in the past with Native American land. In an attempt to overcome conflicts with the possession of Native American land, the United States set in place policies that were often inconsiderate to the Natives, but that they believed to be better economically, politically, and morally. These policies varied from government provided food for the Natives, to the distribution of the new land, and the treatment of Native for their various practices. All of these things greatly affected the course of Native American people and their cultures to this day.…

    The article that we were assigned to read, made me a bit aggravated at some points. To start off, there were far too many contradictions in this article to be considered a "good read" in my opinion. The first thing that caught my eye while reading, was the giant, bold, blue paragraph sections that stated "fact." While reading numerous "fact" paragraphs, quite a few times I came across the phrase "most likely" "it was assumed" or "points to." These phrases, do not point to facts, nor do they belong in a facts paragraph. These phrases still point to doubt and uncertainty and for all the reader knows, can still be an opinion of the writer. Personally as a reader, when I place something in a fact or opinion category, I make sure that it is properly placed in its group. A fact, is something that is proven and definite, not something that can still be swayed into another group. Another contradiction that I saw, was stated in the first few "Fact" paragraphs, that every day is typically celebrated as a day of thanks for Native Americans. Every day is celebrated as thanksgiving. Then, in the last paragraph, it says that thanksgiving is a day of mourning for Native Americans. Thanksgiving serves as a day of thanks in the beginning of the article, then serves as a day of mourning in the…

    Upon my arrival from sea, the natives greeted me by thumping there chest twice with a closed fist. What I had first though as a sign of aggression I found out was, in fact, there way of greeting my captain and me. As I took my first steps onto their red sand shoreline, they proceeded to thump their chests. A man ornamented in ostrich feathers stepped forward and proceed to click his tongue at different intervals; this I assumed was how they talked. Even with a language barrier, I followed this man and his faction into their village.The reaction from these inhabitants overwhelmed me. Without even knowing me, they welcomed me into their homes and their families. I can distinctly recall the children of the village running around trying to catch a single gaze at the new comer that was me. This young boy, no older than ten, ran up to me and smiled. It was astonishing to witness firsthand; I had never thought I could ever witness something this heart touching from a complete stranger.…

    In early films, Native Americans have historically been portrayed as uncivilized and dangerous. Many photographs from hundreds of years ago were staged – paying Natives to wear traditionally incorrect dress and costumes, like headdresses. Chiefs wore headdresses during special ceremonies and that was it. However, when someone dresses up as a Native, they wear a headdress because it’s their stereotypical image of a Native American. Most people don’t know the true history of the Native Americans (the removal or how harshly they were treated), only what we’re taught in our history classes, which is only the basic information.…

    The discovery that Native Americans' culture is not static, is a relatively new one. With the aid of modern archeology, we now know that the Natives were very complex and were ever changing. The evidence we have now is still basic, but we can still learn a lot from it. Because of the lack of evidence, a lot of controversy is attributed to Native Americans. Some people believe that Natives were perfect beings, living in harmony with nature and others believe that they were savages due to human sacrifices, wars, etc. Natives are also often compared to Europeans who like them, engaged in warfare as well. One large difference is that Europeans had more capability to cause destruction compared to the Natives, due to their technology and organization…

    Cherokee Tribe History

    Even if it was quite a good deal for the federal government, a lot of people who were part of the Cherokee tribe felt betrayed because the negotiators did not represent the tribal government. John Ross, the principal chief of the Nation once wrote “The instrument in question is not the act of our nation,” to the Senate of the United States of America protesting against this treaty. Furthermore, a large number of Cherokees (about 16,000) signed Ross’s petition, but the treaty was approved anyway by the congress. By 1838, just a few Cherokees had left their “former land” for what was called the Indian Territory. After this, nearly 7,000 soldiers were sent to expedite this removal process. The Cherokee were thus forced to march more than 1,200 miles to Indian Territory. Unfortunately, along the way, as said earlier, it was easy for Indians to die contracting diseases such as whooping cough, typhus, dysentery, or cholera. Moreover starvation was also a big issue for the Indians. The federal government back then promised that their new land (Indian Territory) would remain intact forever, the truth though was quite different, and the more whites had envy of conquest, the more the Indian Territory shrank.…
