The author’s main argument is that there was densely populated society before European arrival, how certain patterns and processes originated before and after contact with the Europeans.…

    In the early 1600’s a disease, known as the “Smallpox” wiped out nearly all Native Americans that lived in what we now know as Massachusetts. Smallpox quickly contaminated 90% of Native Americans due to the fact that they had no immunity to such diseases; the Smallpox disease played a major role in decreasing the population. In 1621 the Pilgrims, and Wampanoag tribe held the first Thanksgiving feast; which went on for about 3 days. The Pilgrims, and the Wampanoag Tribe decided to have the feast together because they equally helped each other settle, and contributed to agriculture.

    Social structure was a vital component to any Native American tribe. The Algonquians, for example, a group that inhabited the Northeastern portion of the continent, “lived in bands ranging from one to three hundred members”.

Not only did a husband, wife, and their family reside in these structures, but their married sons and their families lived there also. “Both the Iroquois and the Algonquians had strong tribal identities above and beyond the basic nuclear families.”…

    What do you make of the irony that women were often treated quite well in Indigenous traditions and yet, today, Native American women are the group of women that experience the highest incidence of domestic violence? My reaction: It upsets me to think about the violence that women are experiencing throughout all cultures. For Native American women to be experiencing the highest domestic violence I feel at fault. If it weren 't for colonization and the “whites” invading the Native American territory the concept of women being less than men would never have been introduced to the Native American culture.…

This also unfortunately means as the cycle of hardship continues and without adequate support to pursue educational advancement the issues of today’s generations will continue to perpetuate. Native Americans just simply view social institutors differently than we do and as a result are in need of a system that better fits their way of life, however neither the US nor the tribes themselves lack to ability to make it come to…
