He used his slaves to do his labor and they were the ones who collected much of his fortune. And later when he directed the Indian Removal Act, he used that stolen land to expand his cotton farming and slavery. By having Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill, we are honoring him and everything that comes with him. A historian once said that a human cannot possibly be a good person…

The Navajo and Apache Tribes are descendants from other Native Peoples from Northern Canada. Both Tribes have their own unique history which can be used still to this day especially because both the Navajo, and Apache arrived in what is known today as the Great Plains prior to Spain and Europe settlements. Navajo, meaning "the people," used their horses to attack the Europeans. Out of the Navajo, and Apache tribes, the Navajo would win the "most settled" award as they made dwelling and shelter…

It was a warm dry sunny day, in San Francisco where the CIncinnati Reds were taking the field for practise. There was someone named Billy. He was a very kind, thoughtful, and sweet person. He looked a little different than other people. He had a mental disability. Even though he had a mental disability he was the best player at the practise by far, and everybody knew. A couple hours later there was another player who came, his name was Josh. When Josh had arrived he overheard people saying that…

September 28. The grand jury brought charges against the eight members of the White Sox team. It stunned the nation, although they still watched the trial very closely. The players soon became known as the “Black Sox.” The grand jury and conspiracy trials were a very important part of baseball history because of all of the gambling scandals. Sox pitchers “Lefty” Williams and Eddie Cicotte both had confessed to the grand jury about their involvement in the scandal. The jury’s biggest issue…

The Indian Ocean is the third largest ocean in the world taking the shape of a capital ‘M’.

While the issues of the Native American culture today are amplified compared to the general population. Native Americans suffer from some of the worst health issues and…

Because the government oversees reservations, things like the economy on reservations may be determined by the government. Companies have difficulty starting up because of excess regulation, and getting loans is tricky because of less land ownership (Regan 1). Native Americans are victims of police brutality as well and account for 2% of deaths…
