American Indians are a perfect example for marginalized groups because they were literally pushed aside and marginalize. The reason that was because they were literally pushed aside and marginalize because they were put into reservations, but in this article it talks about how the children were taken from there homes and tried to be brain washed into being American. I know that because Captain Prat said that he wanted to kill the indian and save the human inside. This is also a way that Indians could have been made to feel as if they didn't exist, because evan Prat said " kill the Indian". So that must have made them feel as if they didn't exist.
The purpose of Shanice Writing this essay to educate people of how the life on the rez is. I know this because in the article she talks about when she tells people that she lives on a rez that they automatically think that she lives in a teepee and wears feathers and common indian stereo types. So she wanted to teach us that this is incorrect. She said that she was like a normal teen age girl and like to watch mtv and did normal thing, but it's just that she has different customs and traditions that are different from other people and Native American culture is among the smallest know about so that is also why people think that these stereo types are true.

ReplyDeleteYes, but you need to be more specific about what happened to the children and why.
