The ways that the Nahua theater produced plays, it is easy to see how they could have inadvertently helped preserve pagan beliefs of the Nahua. The use of allegorical figures in the plays, such as the Final Judgement, could have been very confusing to viewers and actors. Using people dressed up as Penance, The Holy Church, Sweeping, Time, and Death to convey ideas that are not material or human could have added to pagan ideas that previously existed. Another preexisting idea of the native people…
On May 9, 2015, Garvey’s Advanced Band and Mustang Choir went to the Trills and Thrills Festival at Burbank Middle School. We had to be at school by 7:15 AM since it was our call time, and that was way too early for me since I usually sleep at 12 AM. I was in Advanced Band and I played the clarinet. Of course I was excited to play at the competition, but I was also nervous since we were going to Six Flags afterwards and I had a huge fear of heights. Once the bus arrived at Burbank Middle…
provider.” I found it important to note that LA city is the biggest in size and second most populated city in the United States, so they have a very big and important mission. History- The city of Los Angeles was founded in 1781 and started as a small pueblo governed by the King of Spain. Because it was a farming community their stockpiles of hay and other dry crops would be a hazard and at the time they used bucket brigades to fight fires. Since there was no form of…
The encroachment and failure to protect the environment where the Apache lived, the often raided villages and pueblo towns due to many economic factors such as shortage of food. To insure peace, for several years, the system of local treaties and occasional military action was used (Martinez, 53). The expansion of railroad system also led to easy and fast transport…
1. Describe how Freire’s idea of “humanization” relates to the essence of peace education. Freire talks about humanization being the act of becoming more fully human. Only by acting against the oppressors can they both become fully human. The problem occurs when the oppressed, whom Freire says have been “prescribed” to their oppressors way of thinking, become free and their only reference of a free human is their oppressors. To humanize both the oppressed need to create something new and…

Most people move to Los Angeles if they become successful in sports, music, writing, or singing because Los Angeles is an entertaining place with lots to do. Los Angeles was not always called “The City of Angels”(Hively). Los Angeles was called “El Pueblo del la Reina de Los Angeles”, or “The Town of the Queen of Angels”(Hively). This was around the time when Spain still believed that they still ruled California, but there was hardly any Spanish settlers. “Spanish rule was overthrown in 1821 by…
Tradition is defined as a set of customs and beliefs that are largely stable through time, the passing down of elements of a culture from generation to generation, especially by oral communication. It is through tradition that the Hopi Indians of Northeast Arizona and the Mande people of West Africa have been able to survive as distinct cultures in this rapidly changing world. The art of oral tradition, or historical storytelling, has been the main resource for the continuous education of…
Indian conflict played a significant role in the founding of the United States, starting almost immediately after Christopher Columbus’s landing in the Americas. When the Spanish settlers arrived in the “new land”, they brought crops, livestock, and advancements in weaponry from their homes; this increased violence between tribes and brought new diseases/invasive species to the Native’s land. Along with bringing physical representation of Europe, the Spanish brought religion, offering…
La Nourriture, La Comida, L’alimento, and Sapadu. All have a different interpretations, but all have one meaning, food. To be well nourish is a wonderful resource to have everyday life. Food can be a life source, a gift from above, a religious relic, anything we can imagine. Even though we take it for granted it should be something to be grateful to have. To me, food defines culture. Culture defines a person’s tradition, origin, and religious aspects. It can bring back a memories that will bind…
