Would We Be Killed?

Paragraph 1:
How were American Indians (Native Americans) marginalized (pushed aside in society) and made to feel as if they didn’t exist?  Use text evidence from “Would We Be Killed?” to support your answer.  Don’t forget to explain your evidence and how it supports your claim.
The native Americans children were being taken away from there parents to boarding schools to be taught in a white family." The solider was US army captain Hnery Pratt. And he believed that he was saving Ota Kte." This ended up with the children rebelling against the white soldiers.

I think the purpose of Shancie writing this essay is to let people know how her family is just the same as another.Just that she has different ways of celebrating there cultures and way of life.


Paragraph 2:  Choose one of the questions below (A or B)


A: Compare/Contrast Luther Standing Bear’s and Shanice Britton’s experiences in their own time period.



B: What is the purpose of Shanice Britton’s essay? What does she want the readers to know about her and Native Americans living today?

  1. This is a good start, but just a start. Your paragraphs are not complete, and therefore your ideas are not detailed. Try to explain with more detail in the future.
