Dakano People: Film Analysis
them so no one would know the true history between us and the Dakano people and kill them all so they aren't any of these kinds anymore like seriously I wish that the world wasn't like this we can just accept each other no matter what and accept them for who they are and they want to them it's on them not you.Unless they asked help or thoughts of what they or examples.

Who knows how many years they had fought for this land back and won't stop at all and in the Dakota 38 film they have a part in it towards the end that Minneapolis welcomes them back to their home and gets the key I believe of it.They all hugged each other and one would said thanks and the other welcome or say welcome back to your land/home which to me it's a pretty big thing

    The documentary “Indians, Outlaws and Angie Debo” shows Angie Debo as a 98-year old lady, reflecting on her experiences in life. In the documentary she talks about Oklahoma´s history of depriving its five Native American tribes of their land and resources in the 1930s from the perspective of the displaced. Native Americans during this time were seen more than ever as a bounded group by the European Anglo-Americans [in the following analysis, the dominant European Anglo-American group is referred to as whites to simplify the reading]. In comparison to whites who felt superior and avowed to themselves the power to dominate the inferior race, the Native Americans were ascribed a strongly subordinated position in society and were treated in a discriminatory way by the whites.…

    According to the article, Maya Deren blames Hollywood’s artistic and political values dominate and manipulate the American cinema that turns Hollywood into the major obstacle to the development of the cinema as creative fine-art form. In Maya’ films, she mostly aims at breaking through the Hollywood mode; she helps to develop and popularize many unconventional cinematic expressions, such as disjointed narrative, female-gaze, and so on and so forth. To Maya Deren, motion picture should be a creative fine-art that has its own features and concepts, so in her films rarely can see a story, and instead Maya more tends to use of the disjointed image sequences with shifting points of view in the distortion of time and space to express her own interpretation…

    What I liked about the film, Ethnic Notions is that it gave me more knowledge on my history with some of the terms that white men used to call people of color. I have heard of some of the terms from previous history courses, but not the word “brute”. I did not know what that word meant until I read the first chapter in Davis, which gave an explanation of what the term meant and where it has come from, along with the film explanations. One thing that I took away from the film was when Barbara said something like, “we demean ourselves as Blacks because now it is imbedded in our psyche. When she brought this up in the documentary I found this to be true because as an African American. I do have conversations and jokes to my friends who might have…

    In a subjective sense, what is “right” and what is “wrong” appear to be definite. Many abide by “the law of human nature,” with the notion that everyone follows and can distinguish a set of standards that revolve around morality. C.S Lewis discusses this distinction and refers to the law that “people thought that everyone knew it by nature and did not need to be taught it.” In other words, there is a ubiquitous standard of right and wrong that everyone understands and agrees upon. However, what happens when it extends beyond just simply right and wrong, when factors such as life and death contribute to the decision? Is this law still valid?…

    The 1987 film documentary Ethnic Notions directed by Marlon Riggs, identifies the evolution of African American cultural depictions through ethnic stereotypes and caricatures in American culture. I feel Ethnic Notions exposes the roots of false generalization from the beginning and presents a series of classifications for racial depictions that still are noticeable in today's society. These racial depictions identified with in this film begin in the mid 1800's and continue thought to the 1960's. I now after viewing Ethnic notions agree that there are generalizations and depictions that are exaggerated in American popular culture and entertainment.…

    Hmong Culture Analysis

    There is no doubt that western developed countries often turn a blind eye to other regions and cultures in the world that are less developed. One such culture that has little recognition is the Hmong, a small tribe in the mountainous region of Laos. After the Vietnam War, the United States experienced a high number of immigrant refugees from Southeast Asia, including the Hmong. A clash of cultures occurred as the Hmong and Americans tried to live together in unity. Perhaps one of the greatest contrasts is the way health is defined. The conceptualization of illness and its treatment in the Hmong community differs greatly from the biomedical model of health in the United States; these differences account for the consequences and inequality between…

    Chief Seattle’s diction reflects his sorrow and passion in regards to selling the land. The purpose of the speech was to persuade the “The Great Chief of Washington” on how important the land was to his people. With vivid description, history and memories he was able to contract the difference between the Indians love of the land and the white man ignorance of the land by saying, “The earth is not his brother, but his enemy, and when he has conquered it, he moves on. He leaves his father’s grave behind, and he does not care.” These words illustrated the great respect and the different morals toward each family. He condemns the white man for moving away from their land which displays the disrespect they have for their dead.…
