Indigenous Peoples in the American Imagination: Representations of Native Peoples in Mary Rowlandson’s The Sovereignty and Goodness of God and Cynthia Kadohata’s Weedflower
This PowerPoint details the historical argument of Dr. Philip Deloria who asserts that Euro-Americans have appropriated ideas of "Indianess" for their own cultural agenda, and subsequently used their own stereotypes of Indians against Native Americans themselves.
This document provides a summary of a thesis paper written by Matthew Woods about the mindset of runaway slaves during the American Civil War from 1861-1865. It discusses how some slaves took the war as an opportunity to escape toward Union lines, while others had their relationships with owners changed by the war. It explores ways that slaves resisted, such as participating in the Underground Railroad or impersonating free papers. It argues that while many slaves were born into slavery in the U.S., the Civil War provided a key distraction that some slaves saw as their chance to gain freedom by escaping to Union soldiers.
Manufacturing Violence. The Rise of the American Mass Market Press and the D...Craig Smartis
This thesis examines the dehumanization of Native peoples in the late 19th century American mass media. Chapter 1 introduces how the nation's failure to acknowledge the injustice of Manifest Destiny has damaged the American moral character. It discusses the 1864 Sand Creek massacre, where Colonel Chivington's forces brutally killed Cheyenne women, children, and elderly. This turned many tribes against whites and spread rage across the Plains. The chapter analyzes how information about the massacre was reported and controlled through newspapers to shape public opinion. It argues that white atrocities against Native peoples cannot be explained as retaliation, and the only way to understand the violence is through the loss of ethical conscience in American public discourse.

The document discusses the concept of a hero in Filipino culture and history. In early Filipino societies, a hero or "bayani" was a normal warrior who served their community by fulfilling daily tasks and needs, such as raiding other territories for resources. Under colonial rule, the concept of a hero changed to emphasize obedience to saints and disciples. While Jose Rizal is now recognized as the Philippine's national hero, the Americans promoted this designation because he was non-violent and did not oppose American imperialism. There are several criteria used for recognizing heroes, including their sacrifices for the country and influence on subsequent generations.
Anti Japanese Sentiment and Propaganda in WWIItimothyjgraham
During WWII, many Americans lacked basic knowledge about key aspects of the war. Most could not name the Allied countries, years of the war, or the US President at the time. Public perceptions of Japanese and Germans as enemies differed, with the Japanese often viewed as treacherous, warlike, and even subhuman. This contributed to the internment of over 100,000 Japanese Americans in camps during the war.
The document provides information on various topics covered in the Spring 2017 issue of Global Eyes Magazine, including a profile of a Nigerian baker in Winnipeg, Black History Month events, and new Nigerian immigration regulations aimed at consolidating existing rules and facilitating business.

Che Guevara - The Motorcycle Diaries vs his storyAimee H
Ernesto "Che" Guevara was born into an upper-middle class family in Argentina in 1928. As a young man, he embarked on a motorcycle trip through South America with a friend that opened his eyes to poverty and colonialism. This experience led him to embrace revolutionary ideals and join Fidel Castro's rebel forces in Cuba. As a key leader of the Cuban Revolution, he helped overthrow the Batista regime. However, he later left Cuba due to disagreements over foreign policy and attempted to spark revolutions in other countries, which led to his capture and execution in Bolivia in 1967. His legacy remains highly controversial, with some viewing him as a hero and others as a terrorist.
The document summarizes Frances Smith Foster's argument that slave narratives followed a five-point structure based on the Judeo-Christian myth of salvation. This structure included a fall from innocence into slavery, mortification and suffering under slavery, a conversion or decision to flee slavery, the struggle of escape, and finally freedom or salvation. Key slave narratives like those of Frederick Douglass and Harriet Jacobs can be analyzed using this structure. However, the document notes slave narratives may have inadvertently reinforced some racial stereotypes about the locations of slavery and the black family structure.
Robert Franklin Williams wrote "Negroes With Guns" while living in exile in Cuba after being forced to flee the United States due to his activism for African American civil rights and self-defense against racist violence. As a child, Williams witnessed a brutal beating of a Black woman by a white police officer that left a lasting trauma. After serving in World War 2, Williams returned home to North Carolina and organized armed resistance against the Ku Klux Klan to prevent further racist violence and lynchings. This led to threats and false charges against Williams, forcing him and his family to flee the country in 1961.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his iconic "I Have a Dream" speech in 1963 calling for freedom and equality for all. While progress has been made, racism remains a problem in the US and worldwide in various forms. Racial profiling and hate crimes still occur regularly in America. Fear and ignorance often drive racism by causing people to act in ways outside their character against those they do not understand due to their race or ethnicity. True equality will be achieved not just by equal rights but when race is no longer a factor in how people are judged or treated.
The Revision and Origin of Black August, by Kiilu Nyasha (2012)RBG Communiversity
This document discusses the origins and evolution of Black August, which was originally organized to honor Black revolutionaries who died fighting against racism and oppression. It summarizes the socialist and internationalist views of George Jackson and others. It argues some have revised Black August's meaning for self-promotion rather than upholding its revolutionary principles. It traces Black August back to resistance among Black prisoners in the 1960s led by figures like George Jackson.
This represents a short overview of Black History in the Old and New Testament of the Bible, a brief description of African-american history and a plea for repentance on the part of the white Church of America for the many sins of our ancestors against blacks for 400 years as well as lessons we can learn from Black History for all Christians as we face an increasingly hostile American culture toward biblical values and Christians who espouse them.

This document provides biographical information about Ernesto "Che" Guevara in 18 sections. It details his early life growing up in Argentina, his travels through South America which helped shape his views, his role in the Cuban Revolution alongside Fidel Castro, and his eventual death fighting for revolution in Bolivia at age 39. It also mentions that since his death, Guevara has become a legendary political figure representing rebellion, revolution, and socialism, and continues to inspire attainment of independent nationalism around the world.
This document outlines the reading lists and themes for a literature class covering works from Greco-Roman times through Modernism. For each historical period, 5-6 representative works are listed along with 3-5 themes addressed in the assigned readings, such as the struggle between free will and fate in ancient Greece/Rome or the impact of industrialization and new social classes shown in Victorian literature. Students are also encouraged to watch movie adaptations of the works to enhance comprehension.
The document summarizes key events and movements in the 1960s Civil Rights era in the United States, including the emergence of the Ku Klux Klan after the Civil War to oppose racial integration, key figures like Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X who advocated for civil rights, and pivotal moments and court cases that advanced desegregation and voting rights. It also discusses theories around the assassination of John F. Kennedy and the people involved like Lee Harvey Oswald and Jack Ruby.
The Motorcycle Diaries depicts Ernesto "Che" Guevara's 1952 South American journey that helped shape his views and inspire his revolutionary ideals. While the film portrays this formative period accurately and was praised for its cinematography, it provides an idealized view of Guevara that does not fully acknowledge his later controversial and violent actions in Cuba. As a revolutionary figure, the real Guevara was more complex than the youthful idealist presented in the movie, which is criticized by some for glossing over the full reality of his legacy.
Lecture 02 - Off on a (Historical) TangentPatrick Mooney
Second lecture for my students in English 140, UC Santa Barbara, Summer 2012. Course website: http://patrickbrianmooney.nfshost.com/~patrick/ta/su12/index.html
The passage discusses the question of whether humans are born evil or become evil later in life. It references several examples of truly evil acts committed by humans, such as the George Floyd killing, feeding a pregnant elephant explosives causing its death, and serial killer Ted Bundy's brutal murders of dozens of young women. While some studies suggest certain individuals like Bundy were predisposed to mental illnesses like bipolar disorder from birth, the passage argues that one's upbringing and environment also play a large role in shaping whether cruel or violent tendencies develop. It concludes that cultivating empathy, compassion, and a good education focused on non-violence are needed to curb humanity's potential for evil and keep people from harming each other.
The document summarizes Martin Luther King Jr.'s famous "I Have a Dream" speech given at the 1963 March on Washington, in which he advocated for racial equality and an end to discrimination of African Americans. It also provides biographical details of Martin Luther King Jr. and Barack Obama, noting that King worked to end racial segregation and discrimination, while Obama became the first African American president of the United States, realizing King's dream of a multiracial society with equal rights.

An analysis, unifying two texts, to demonstrate the treatment of indigenous populations, as well as immigrants, in Pre-American and present society, especially after the Trump administration.
Cultural imperialism is the practice of promoting the culture or language of one nation in another. This document discusses examples of cultural misunderstandings that occurred when American companies expanded internationally without fully understanding local cultures and languages. It also examines the larger negative repercussions of cultural imperialism, such as the marginalization of groups, violence, and the destruction of indigenous cultures. While the spread of American culture through movies, music and the internet threatens local cultures, the internet also allows people to stay connected to their local cultures anywhere in the world.
The document discusses the history and forms of racism against various racial groups throughout history. It describes how Europeans colonized Africa and the Americas in the 1400s believing they were civilizing savages. This led to the systematic oppression and denial of rights of people based on their race, including Native Americans who were forced off their lands onto reservations, and African Americans who were enslaved. More recently, racism has increased against Latino, Arab, and other immigrants. The document advocates that society needs to work together regardless of race to function, and that the solution to racism is for everyone to accept each other's humanity and get along.
This document discusses the influence of Indigenous Iroquois culture and traditions on the founding of the United States and early American identity. It notes that while the Founding Fathers emphasized private property rights, they also admired aspects of Iroquois society like their concept of liberty. Figures like Benjamin Franklin wrote about the Iroquois Confederacy and "Sons of Liberty" adopted Iroquois dress. However, the emphasis on property rights conflicted with communal Indigenous traditions. The document also examines Iroquois influence on early feminism through figures like Matilda Joslyn Gage who recognized the more egalitarian roles of Iroquois women.
This document presents opposing views on the canonization of Father Junipero Serra and explores the complexities of historical figures. It acknowledges there are often two sides to American issues and highlights debates around Christopher Columbus and George W. Bush. It provides background on Serra's founding of Spanish missions in California and quotes both supporting and opposing his canonization. The document poses questions about cultural conversion, standards for sainthood, and whether the ends justify means to set up an activity where students will research and debate Serra's canonization.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.
THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

3. Main Ideas
• Mary Rowlandson is scared and wishes for death when she is first
captured by the indigenous people because she views them as
savages, but through time, she comes to realize that there are
similarities between the natives and the settlers.
• During the beginning of WWII, the American government places
people of Japanese descent into internment camps out of fear.
• Once people look past the stereotypes they are told in their lives,
they are able to truly asses one another despite racial or cultural
differences
4. Misrepresentation of Early Native Americans
• “Prominent scientists exaggerate the
violence of Native Americans, whom
European invaders ravaged.”
• Check out “Thanksgiving and the Myth of
Native American ‘Savages’”

check/thanksgiving-and-the-myth-of-native-
american-savages/
• Indigenous Americans were more civilized
than history leads us to believe:

5. The Sovereignty and
Goodness of God
• In the beginning of the
captivity narrative,
Rowlandson uses harsh,
demeaning words to
describe the Indigenous
Americans such as:
• “murderous wretches”
• “bloody heathen”
• “ravenous beasts”
• “barbarous creatures”
• “inhumane creatures”
• Etc.
6. The Sovereignty and Goodness of God
• “The first week of my being among them, I hardly eat any thing;
the second week, I found my stomach grow very faint for want of
something; and yet it was very hard to get down their filthy trash;
but the third week, though I could think how formerly my stomach
would turn against this or that, and I could starve and die before I
could eat such things, yet they were sweet and savory to my
taste.”
• Here we see that Mary is adapting to her new surroundings despite how
“uncivilized” and foreign to her they are. She puts aside her beliefs in an
attempt to survive.
7. The Sovereignty and Goodness of God
• "Sometimes I met with favour, and sometimes with nothing but
frowns.”
• Throughout Mary Rowlandson’s time with the Indigenous Americans, she
begins to see that there are good and bad people among them just as there
is with the colonists and other “civilized” people. Some natives give her
food or helpe her when she falls while others laugh at her pain, beat her,
and taunt her with stories of her dead family members. Through
interactions with both types of people, Mary is able to let go of some of her
racial prejudices and is no longer surprised by acts of kindness or acts of
violence.
8. Japanese Internment
• A quick history of the Japanese-American
internment camps:

war-ii/japanese-american-relocation
9. U.S. Representation
of Japanese People
• The fears and misconceptions associated
with people of Japanese descent were
amplified by the anti-Japanese
propaganda put out by the United states
during WWII which portrayed a racist and
stereotypical representation of the
Japanese.

influence-of-racism/
• Even children’s shows used their media
platform to create fear of the ”enemy”
and further perpetuate these stereotypes.

10. Japanese Internment in
Weedflower
• In Weedflower, Sumiko is growing up in an
extremely difficult time filled with racial
prejudices and is trying to make sense of
American’s distorted views of her people.
• “Also, on the radio she’d heard a governor
from another state announce that if any
‘Japs’ living in California tried to come to his
state, they would soon be hanging from
trees,” (Cynthia 54).
• “One of the strangest things she heard was
when one American general said of the
Nikkei, ‘The very fact that no sabotage has
taken place to date is a disturbing and
confirming indication that such action will be
taken,’” (Cynthia 66-67).
11. Cultural Misconceptions
• In Weedflower, Sumiko meets a boy her age, who is Native
American, named Frank. At first, both Sumiko and Frank dislike
each other because of racial stereotypes perpetuated by the
American imagination. Once they get to know each they realize
how wrong they both were.
12. Stereotypes From Both Sides
Japanese Stereotypes
• “My brother said the Japs are all
farmers,” (Cynthia 121-122).
• “They’re wasteful,’ said the boy
chewing gum. ‘They throw food
out all the time!’”(Cynthia 122).
• “If they think you’re going to kill
them, they stick a sword in their
stomach before you can do it. I
read that,” (Cynthia 123).
Indigenous American Stereotypes
• “‘After they scalp us, they’ll cut off
our fingers and boil them,’ Sachi
added. Sumiko’s heart pounded in
her ears,” (Cynthia 121).
• “‘They live everywhere, silly.
They’re Indians. They hide at night.
If we don’t behave they’ll kidnap
your family when it gets dark. You’re
in special danger because you live at
the camp border.’ Then Sachi seemed
to tire of her own lies,” (Cynthia
124).
13. Throughout the works of Mary Rowlandson
and Cynthia Kadohata, we can see that
the American imagination incorrectly
represents native people due to the lack
of understanding of different cultures.
