    Native American Relationship

    After reading the text provided I came to the conclusion that the relationship between the Native Americans and the United States was in constant turmoil. The text is littered with many treaties made with the Natives and the effect these had on all parties involved. The westward expansion caused numerous battles and debates among the politicians and tribes. A quote from the article A Shawnee Argues for an Untied Indian Resistance, 1810 states “After mistreatment of the Native Americans by Presidents Jefferson and Madison, Tecumseh, a Shawnee, tried to organize the Midwestern Indian tribes into a united political alliance to thwart the steady advance of the white settlers.” This quote shows the strained relationship between the Natives and the…

When Kenny questions Ruku on why she doesn’t just leave the dung to fertilize the earth, he is assuming that she and other village women are simply ignorant to modern agricultural practices but Ruku surprises him by stating that they know it will help the soil but when she asks him what other substitute there was to the dung, Kenny kept silent. Kenny had nothing to say because he knew that the dung is for household to protect it from the elements, it is also mixed with hay to create fuel for the people and it gets rid of ants and mice.

    Colonization Of Indigenous Women In Kim Anderson's The Construction Of A Negative Identity

    Colonization of Indigenous people resulted in the appropriation of lands and resources for the benefit of early European settlers. Through colonization, there has been an imposition of Western ideology which enforces a patriarchal view that had negative effects for Indigenous women. In this patriarchal system, Indigenous men internalize views of superiority resulting in violent acts on women. These views are illustrated by Sherene Razak, in “Gendered Racial Violence and Spatialized Justice”, by Kim Anderson, in “The Construction of a Negative Identity”, and by Lee Maracle, in her book Ravensong. Therefore, this essay will argue how through spatial segregation, Indigenous women lose entitlement of personhood through state laws and that violence…

    Violence Against Native Women Essay

    The tragic history of violence against native women starts with colonialism. The taking of the land is also a metaphor for the body especially that of women. Many native women had a lot of control over land and thus when taken so are bodies. To discuss one without the other would to be leaving out a true representation of the violence which has taken place within the United States. Overall, the main point of this paper is that the violence of native women and the process of taking land is deeply connected and taking back the two is a deep part of the activism being done by native women.…
