    Many years ago, laying out on the trampoline late at night, I remember hearing the coyotes howl and yip in the field bordering my friend’s house. The sound so frightened us that we promptly rushed inside. To children that grew up never truly in the country, only on the edge of town, coyotes seemed so wild. However, as Dan Flores illuminates in his book, Coyote America: A Natural and Supernatural History, that encounter was not an unusual experience at all. In the past century coyotes have spread across all reaches of the United States.…

    California is a state that consists of countless historical landmarks that have been preserved in order to better understand the heritage of that specific site. Preservation is a way for people to recycle land and buildings in order to teach people about the resources that were once used in the past. People observe and learn through the preservation of landmarks so that important details such as traditions, rituals, languages, and skills can be incorporated into our present and future time periods. Out of many captivating historical landmarks, I chose to visit Coyote Hills Regional Park because I wanted to learn more about its importance. Coyote Hills is a significant part of history because it teaches society that in spite of the invasion and the genocide that the Ohlone Indians underwent, decedents of the tribes are now connecting with their communities by sharing their land and history with society.…

    The controversy of whether or not offensive Native American mascots and sports team names should be changed has been up for debate for a few years now. The sides are mostly the same: those who want to keep the names and mascots and those who believe the names and mascots are offensive and should be changed. However, Hayley Munguia in her article for FiveThirtyEightSports, “The 2,128 Native American Mascots People Aren’t Talking About,” shows readers that there are more than those two perspectives. The most well known point of view is that of the team supporters, those who want to keep the mascots and team names. For the most part, this group consists of fans, alumni, benefactors, and players.…

    Are Indian mascots honoring or offending American Indians? For thousands of years, American Indians have been fighting to prove who they are.

By singing her songs, the people for one become more engaged in the topics.…

The Coyote is portrayed as a two-spirited man in the historical context of two-spirited people.…

    Wolves are viewed as evil predators and are usually used to reference negative human behaviors. Such as rudely “wolfing” down food or “wolf whistling”, which references the way a man whistles at a woman in a derogatory manner. This perception of wolves may have widely encouraged the creation of the werewolf, a murdering, and torturing composite creature. That embodies the impulsive and unreasoning side of an animal and the violent and dangerous side of humans.…
