Video Summary Of The Video: The Tribe Video

Decent Essays
I thought that “The Tribe” video was interesting because it connected modern events and ideas with history and other concepts. This made it easier for me to understand the history and concepts that were being explained by allowing me to associate it when information I already knew. For example, the video talks about the culture of insiders and outsiders by relating it to celebrities. It stated that throughout history the Jewish tribe has been treated as outsiders. However, while this may be true in the past, I think that the modern society has become diverse in accepting all ethnicities and religions.

    Miccosukee Seminole Indian tribe Over 200 years ago, the Miccosukee tribe have been known by its characteristic way of fighting to protect their territory. First, the Spaniards, and then even worse, the Anglo-American who tried to exterminate the Miccosukee’s Indians almost two centuries ago and who eventually left them no other option than to live in a very small place in ancestral areas of the Everglades in Miami.

Their houses were called “chickees” and were made of wood, plaster, thatched roofs, and perhaps raised on stilts.

    Being a 16-year –old, and having taken my first semester of college classes this semester with my high school classes on top of that, all here at CSN, has been an unforgettable experience. On the other hand, from the three college classes I have enrolled in, including German 111, Communications 101, and Anthropology 101, I have, in my opinion, learned the most with my Anthropology 101 class. This class has been a great and interesting experience that has allowed me to view the world in a different way than most people. To illustrate, even though I thought most of the things we discussed in class like linguistics and archaeology were interesting, I consider learning about ethnology the most memorable and fascinating concept for me. To illustrate,…

    86% on paperrater In the novel “The Lakota Way”, written by historian, writer, teacher, craftsman, administrator, actor, and public speaker, Joseph M. Marshall III, is a story about the ways of the Lakotas. Within the book, there was twelve core qualities taught, such as; bravery, fortitude, generosity, wisdom, respect, honor, perseverance, love, humility, sacrifice, truth, and compassion. Of these twelve qualities, I feel as though sacrifice, bravery, and wisdom are the uttermost powerful admonitions to learn from this book. From this book the reader learns the way of life and what a vast amount of the Native American people lived by.…

    Of all the videos that I watched, I decided to choose Abnormal by Peggy Hebard because the title sounds attractive for me; the story that she created with her memories and the artworks in the museum sound really fantastic; finally, the form of how she expressed showing feelings in a neutral voice. Likewise, I really enjoy the form of how she explains her ethnicity, childhood, the social problems few years ago, and how hard is for a person from another country, with other religion, and so forth lives in a place where everyone show indifference to you. Another point that I really enjoy was the artwork that she…

    When the video talked about how children were sent away to boarding school because their parents did not know how to handle them or communicate with them, it broke my heart. These children did not have regular communication with their families so they seemed to rely on the other children for love and support. Hearing the interviewees talk about their schooling adventure was pretty cool because they all had similar experiences. However, their experiences were not the best. Many of the people interviewed said that their deafness was treated as a handicap that…
