    To succeed in cattle drives, a balance between speed and the cattle’s weight was critical. Cattle would lose a lot of weight while they drove as much as 25 miles per day, which would make it difficult to sell them when they reached the railheads. They usually took shorter distances so that cattle could maintain their energy. It is said that a herd could keep their normal weight when they travel 15 miles a day, which means it would take about two months to be traded to a railhead from their home farm.…

    Thinking about the ideal “Western Hero” in the 19th century brings to mind three important things which are, giving the United States more land, taking out the Native Americans, and bringing the start of industrialization. Now this is what the civilians of the States were thinking while the western expansion was going on, but people failed to see the struggles they put on the Native Americans. The myth that the western hero is a strong noble man who did their country right, is not entirely true. Yes, without the Indian Removal act of 1830 or the Louisiana purchase we may not be about to call America one of the most innovative country’s in the world, but Americans would have a cleaner conscience. So because western heroes are portrayed as people who were great for America, then Americans have used their image for public display throughout the 20th century despite knowing what they put the Native Americans through.…

    Also 1/7 of cowboys were black and another 1/7 was Hispanic and the rest were white, and normally most cowboys are white. Another reason why racially the old west could’ve been violent was in 1870 was more than half foreign born. Also people all spoke different languages and they were not very friendly with each other. Even in the Military history there was an all-black group called the Buffalo soldiers. Also in the Battle of Beecher’s Island, the U.S. Military and the Indians of the plains were fighting perhaps for land.…

    Should Pit Bulls Be Banned

    Should Pit Bulls Be Banned? Pit bulls may be the most widely misunderstood breed of dog. Their reputation is one of brutality and ferocity, and assumptions are made for the entire breed based on the poor, misrepresented actions of a few canines. Allowing for a minority of pit bulls to speak for the entire breed is a concept in which Americans are well versed, often tolkenizing one on the behalf of many. Because of this tendency to allow for one to speak for an entire group or population, it is even more important that humans stop to address any bias that exists within them without a broader knowledge of an issue.…

    The Truth about the West I believe that the West was a myth; it was actually extremely hard work and was not a great lifestyle to be a cowboy, miner, or farmer. Their jobs were very dangerous, and did not get paid very much. The money they did earn would go to new clothing, food, or bathing. Often miners came from China because the U.S. citizens would not want to leave their family and friends.…

    Lange captures a moment between two “American” college students in 1942 that gives her an alchemist position by turning an erroneous, acrimonious point of time into a cooperative and patriotic time across the races in America, adding onto our misremembered past. Lange’s position was granted by the government to show that they were not mistreating the people they were evacuating, but through subliminal imagery depicted in the men’s body language, wardrobe, and their surroundings, she was able to show the reality of America during World War II. Authors like Okada and Kelley also assisted in helping show how American “nationalism” is lived and viewed in the perspective of the minorities in America during the time of this war. One of the objectives…
