Native American: Steriotypes

The effect of stereotypes generally would make the person who is in a group of a stereotype sad, mad, depressed, could come to hangings because the stereotype could be very offencive to the person. A stereotypes that has affected a group is how Japanese people are good at math. On a video that I watched it talked about how a Japanese boy wasn't great at math and his teacher expected him to be good and had too high standards and it made him feel bad and sad a lot just because of a stereotype. That is an example of how just something that seems small can affect someone in big ways. The effect of  stereotypes toward Native Americans is/could be very insulting to them. This reminds me of how most black people get stereotyped because of how other/some black people act. Like how most white people think that all black people are bad and dangerous when they have just seen a couple black people who have done bad things and have not seen how the rest of them are good people and are kind.

Native American: Current Events

The article I found was posted by Jacqueline S. Homan on May 25th, 2011. The article title is “Democracy” and rhw Desecration of Native Burial Sites.This article is about how ancient burial sites have been bulldozed, developed, or erased from history and most of these burial sites have evidence of red ochre used by the original people in North America. A site of this ancient stuff is the Snake Mounds in Toronto’s high park. This site has been in danger because BMX bikers have gone on the jumps that were made but would affect the site. There were Native Americans protesting the BMX bikers couldn’t ride in that spot to protect the ancient artifacts. But sadly some of the BMX bikers threw rocks at the Native Americans. This happened in the city of Toronto where the BMX bikers said was the best place for the to ride. This reminds me of how when they were taking down the forest area in New Milford to put more stores there and a lot of people didn’t like the idea at all.
Clarifying question: What was the problem with the biking spot?
Open ended question: Why would the BMX bikers throw rocks at the Native American protesters?
(i couldn't find the date this happened)
