Some Classmates' Blogs

Tiffany's essay was really interestig and she proffed  a good point. She talked about how both the Native Americans and Whites were responsible for all the damage and suffering that was caused by their discord. She pointed out how whites tried to help but not in the best way and how the Indians were not open to new ideas. It was a very good and convincing essay.

I really liked Carolina's essay. She explained it very well and supported her opinion that the white treated Indians in a bad way. It talked about the different things the whites did that was unfair to the Native Americans and how they took advantage of them. My essay was similar so I really agreed with her conclusions.

Randy's essay was pretty good even though he had some small ortographic errors. He supported his opinion about whites not showing respect towards the Indians with good examples. He explained the way in which they took away their lands and forced them to assimilate.

I liked Shae-lynn's essay because she supported her topic, which was assimilation, in many ways. She talked about the different things the Native Americans had to do, such as cut their hair, learn english, and change their clothing. She also gave  really good example of an Indian who went through all this which was Charles Eastman.

Genderie's essay was very similar to Shae's. They both explained the way in which Indians had to assimilate to whites. They essay was very good and she gave many details that supported well her idea.
