initial thoughts

I was excited to learn about Native Americans because I had never really learned about them and I think it’s interesting to learn about the first people that were ever in America. After researching, I am shocked by the Native Americans history because I did not know all the struggles they had faced. The European people forced them out of their land. The Native American’s and colonist seemed to have had many conflicts, which resulted in the cruel treatment of the Native Americans. Most of the research I had found was comparing the basic lives of the colonists and Native Americans. I am excited to research more to dig deeper into these conflicts and understand more of our Country’s history. Our group will be focusing on the 18^th, 19^th, and 20^th centuries in America. The specific subtopics we will research for each time period is; social equality, political power, outside influence, treaties, territories, conflicts, and cultural relations.
