The Hopi Indians Summary
I agree that cancer was correlated to increased animal protein intake. I agree grass is very high in cancer fighting nitrilosides. The Hopi Indians have had cancer rates of 1 in 1000 as opposed to 1 in 4 for the typical American. Many cultures and tribes around the world are "rumored" to be cancer free. The modern way of raising livestock and poultry might cause high cancer rate. They eat plants high in nitrilosides. If they eat plants they are more health than we are. I agree with some things the author thinks in the article. The Inuit peoples diet is 100% meat. They eat whale blubber, seal, salmon, caribou, fermented, and even bear. Grass fed beef is good for you because grass is very high in cancer fighting nitrilosides.

As he grew tired he flew lower and lower, and his wingtips began to hit the soft new land, pushing down the valleys and raising the hills”(Origin myths 1) This story was specific to their land in the southern Appalachian Mountains. They could…

    There were many reasons for the scorn the Europeans felt towards the Natives Americans. According to the video “The Back Legend: Native Americans and Spaniards” by John Green, the indian culture in many aspects, was the exactly opposite of the European culture. The natives did not live in classical style civilizations, while the Europeans lived in castles and big feudal houses, seeing the land as individual property while the Indians saw land as communal. Europeans were technically advanced while the Native Americans did not have any metal work, no gun power and no wheels, making them an easy target for unfair trades. While the Europeans were writing novels, poetry and many other literary works, the natives did not have written languages,…

    he peaceful people or the civilized people, can you guess who they are? They are the Hópitu, ‘peaceful ones,’ or Hópitu-shínumu, ‘peaceful all people’ or better known as the Hopi tribe.

    This is clearly demonstrated in the scene where the rats were exposed to a carcinogen called aflatoxin and later on feeding on a diet of casein, the main protein found in milk. Half of the rats were fed 20% casein while the rest were fed 5% casein. After few weeks of experiments, the rats fed 20% casein had a greatly enhanced level of early liver cancer or tumor growth while the rats fed 5% casein had no evidence of cancer whatsoever. The significance of this experiment was to show the effects of animal protein in our body. Another significant moment is when lee Fulkerson goes on and talks about how the fast food industry was exploding and more overscheduled Americans were using it as a convenient way to feed themselves and their families (Forks over Knives). Fulkerson affirms that, “As fast foods was sweeping the nation, the rate of cancer deaths was continuing to rise [and] as a result, in 1971, the president Nixon initiated a program that was dubbed “The war on cancer” (Forks over Knives). .” The significance of this quote was that the rise of fast food companies increased the rate of the cancer in…

    The concept of race, according to Rosenberg, has been “entangled with the notion of ‘civilization’” (Rosenberg 316). Past historians studying races tended to compare them through their respective cultural tenets and such methodology was susceptible to establishing a hierarchical construction of race. William Fyffe, although not a historian, proceeds to document the discrepancies and similarities between the Cherokee Indians and the colonials in his letter to his brother. According to Fyffe, the Cherokees valued war and orderly communication amongst one another and these cultural beliefs were rather antithetical to European culture.…
