Northwest Native Americans
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper discussing change in historical perspective regarding the fate of Native Americans in the Pacific Northwest, specifically the Kalapuya. History, of course, quite often chose to ignore any follow-up to the many treaties that were signed throughout the 19th century. The facts may have ceased to exist on the white side, for it would not be conducive to career advancement to assume responsibility for Indian ire and Indians generally carried little if any standing. Change in historical perspective may be nothing more than inclusion of all of the truth. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Nuclear Colonialism And Environmental Racism
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. In a perfect world, all entities, every race and each person would be represented in the same fair light. However, this is not a perfect world, and people of various races and origins are not given the same fair treatment in virtually every aspect of social, economic, political and racial representation. Historically, the terms "nuclear colonialism" and "environmental racism" have functioned to condemn certain peoples and regions to a cycle of exploitation, an accusation that can be wholly supported by contemporary perpetuation of this ethnic torment. Technological progress has brought significant advancement to mankind in the way of myriad life-altering improvements, however, in order to reap these benefits untold minority populations continue to pay the price with their homelands and their lives. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

One Drop Rule And Blood Quantum Policy: Race Classification
[ send me this paper ]
4 pages in length. One's heritage is an integral component to how one's entire life is approached; with tenets of the Irish, Chinese, American and every culture in between easily recognized by those outside of that particular population, one can readily surmise that heritage is the very embodiment of an individual. However, there are those whose heritage are not as cut and dried as, for example, a Scotsman or Brit, inasmuch as the family bloodline has been 'tainted' with an interracial presence. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Patterns of Indian-European Interaction
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page assessment of the contention �For both (European and Native Americans) survival and the enhancement of their own culture were the paramount objective� made by author Gary Nash in �Red, White, and Black: The Peoples of Early North America�. This paper illustrates the interaction between Native Americans and the French, Dutch, Spanish, and English to conclude that while there were certain differences in the manner in which each of these groups dealt with the Native Americans, the common goal was the decimation of the Native culture as a whole.

Perceptions of the American West and Frontier in Regards to Cultural Perspective and Historical Method
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 7 page paper discussing perceptions of the American west and frontier. Perception of historical documentation is presented and argued regarding two aspects. Firstly, whether or not cultural perspective should be included in historical accounts such as argued by Jane Tompkins or whether or not cultural beliefs, and indeed the perspective of the Native Americans, should be ignored in regards to the documentation of history and history should just relate to the major chronological events as postulated by Frederick Jackson Turner. Secondly, contemporary historians such as Patricia Limerick and Eric Gary Anderson have changed the sequential historical paradigms used by Turneresque historians and instead used the writings of N. Scott Momaday and Leslie Silko among others to develop models of the Southwest which overlap and intersect different multicultural components found in order to provide nonsequential paradigms where time, space, frontiers, and crossings are boundless and in addition provide present and future existences which show the Euro-American �conquering� and influence on the West as only a small �blip� in regards to overall perception.
Bibliography lists 10 sources.
