    Andrew Blackbird, a native American that belonged to the Ottawa tribe, wrote a book called The History of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians of Michigan. This book was set in the time period of the late 1800’s and discussed a range of topics such as the wrong doings the Whites did to the Indians, and how things were changing for the Ottawa and Chippewa tribes. Although Andrew Blackbird discusses topics such as how the white people treated the Indians, Blackbird wrote this book about his personal history to pass along his experiences. To begin with, Andrew Blackbird talks a lot about his family and their importance in history. For example, Blackbird makes a few statements about his family that were very well respected and important.…

    The importance of the Algonquian native american tribe in the Eastern Great Lakes Region is essential in understanding the region’s political reasoning, this can be understood in the article The Significance of Algonquian Kinship Networks in the Eastern Great Lakes Region, 1600-1701 by Heidi Bohaker, a professor who resides at University of Toronto . The purpose of this comes from an event that occurred in the summer of 1701, author states “the twelve hundred French residents of Montreal played host to some thirteen hundred Native American visitors…” (Bohaker,pg.23) The reasoning behind this was to create a peace treaty, to end conflict with the Iroquois Confederacy. This event is important to remember because the Algonquins were one of many North American native tribes to have the French as allies.…

    Throughout the course so far, I have been able to gain a greater understanding of the First Nations peoples culture. As the course progresses it is noticed that as we keep going further into the past of the First nation's people, it keeps building on itself, due to the fact that there has been so much history covered up. Through the pieces of the literature studied in class, such as the novel Indian Horse by Richard Wagamese and the poem seven matches by Gord Downie and Jeff Lemire, I have been able to determine how the four major themes within the course, identity, sovereignty, relationships, and challenges are a part of the First Nations culture's past. The First Nations people are struggling with these themes, but are in a pace now where they are working to fix their broken past.…

    The intended audience of the article “ The Indians' Old World:Native Americans and the Coming of European”, are the general public and historians because the article shows how a lot of people give more importance of American history after Columbus rather than before Columbus and criticize how historians know much less history prior to arrival of columbus in 1492. For instance, the author Neal Salisbury states that “historians now recognize that Europeans arrived, not in a virgin land, but in one that was teeming with several million people (435)”. 2. 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.…

    Powhatan Tribe Research Paper I am doing my report over the Powhatan Tribe. The Powhatan Tribe is a group of Algonquian-speaking-people that were native to the New World, specifically, the Northeast Woodland Region, before the English had colonized it. The Powhatan Tribe chose to live in this region because the rivers there helped them stay clean, transport places, and irrigate crops easier. The Powhatan Tribe established in 1580 by Wahunsonacock, who created the Powhatan Confederacy that consisted of about 30 tribes. The Powhatan Confederacy was unlike democratic tribes in the way that their leaders had absolute control and their lifestyle was extremely organized and civil.…

    Native American culture has been slowly dying for a little over five centuries. It started in 1492 when Columbus sailed out on his historic voyage and it is still going on in present day America. Interactions between Native Americans and European settlers often resulted in the complete destruction of music considered “pagan” by the Europeans. Native people were continuously removed and relocated from their ancestral homelands, losing many of their mythologies and ancient music traditions in the process. The Native American people have tried to fight back numerous times but there numbers were decimated in the beginning with the introduction of diseases such as measles, typhus, and smallpox.…

    Through the progression of this course, various aspects of history were viewed, in addition to concepts that are still associated to the lives of Aboriginal peoples today. While carrying some previous, biased knowledge on the topics discussed, First Nations Studies allowed the development of many ideas as well as the differing perspectives on each. Via the use of assorted reading selections, tutorial discussions, guest speakers, lectures, and a variety of other forms, I was able to take away a unique understanding, different to the one I had prior, which in turn educated me on Indigenous communities. This course attempted to bypass the anger that has been accumulated over the years, and portray information in order to avoid further issues…
