I agree that cancer was correlated to increased animal protein intake. I agree grass is very high in cancer fighting nitrilosides. The Hopi Indians have had cancer rates of 1 in 1000 as opposed to 1 in 4 for the typical American. Many cultures and tribes around the world are "rumored" to be cancer free. The modern way of raising livestock and poultry might cause high cancer rate. They eat plants high in nitrilosides. If they eat plants they are more health than we are. I agree with some things the author thinks in the article.…
The Hopi Indians are a tribe who belong to the Southwest group of the Western Pueblo people. They live in northeast Arizona at the southern end of the Black Mesa. Being that they are a large group of people, the United States federally recognizes them as a tribe, giving them a political status as a tribe, and making them eligible for funding and services from the Bureau of Indian Affairs. The Hopi had religious ceremonies and rituals represented by Katsina spirits. These spirits represented the essence of things in the living world, being manifested through in human forms. They are also one of the most secretive and closed tribe, since they do not disclose details of their ceremonies.…

Cuteness and Kawaii essentially means childlike; it celebrates sweet, adorable, innocent, pure, simple, genuine, gentle, vulnerable, weak and inexperienced social behavior and physical appearance. (Kinsella, 1995) The word Kawaii was first appeared in the book - Konjaku Monogatari Shyu in the 12 century Heian period (Heian Jidai) Japan. Up until the early Edo period (Edo Jidai), the negative sense of Kawaii faded away, position emotional implications such as “Sympathetic” “likeable” became the mainstream, and the word Kawaii began to borrow Chinese Character…
The Hopi are a Native American nation that resides in the northeastern region of Arizona. “Surrounded by the Navajo nation, Hopi’s have inhabited the same villages for a millennium and are considered to be the oldest dwellers in the land on which their reservation resides” (The Hopi Indians). These Indians refer to themselves as Hopitu, which translates to “The Peaceful People”. The ideas behind Hopi are carried out through the actions that are executed when following the objectives of Kyavtsi; “maintaining the highest degree of respect for and obedience to moral standards & ethics, so as not to knowingly abuse, alter or oppose the progressive order and cycle of nature and the sacred manifestations of the creator’s teachings” (Traditional Values and…
The Kickapoo Indians, roughly meaning, “He who moves about, standing now here, now there,” spent centuries of time wandering the land of North America. Algonquin, the language from which the Kickapoo speak, have taken their name from the Algonquin words Kiwegapaw or Kiwigapawa. Today, the recognized tribes are the Kickapoo Tribe of Oklahoma, the traditional Tribe in Texas, the Kansas Kickapoo Tribe, and also, The Mexican Kickapoo Tribe. Their population of 3,000 people in 1759 has grown to be almost 600 more members by the year 1990 in the United States (Malinowski, Sheets 88). It seems, the Kickapoo people were not as well known or respected as other tribes today, and unfortunately, were kicked around by not only the Europeans, but also, other Indian tribes. Although the Kickapoo are a lesser known tribe, their traditional ceremonies and way of life are fascinating.…
They would create all of their belongings out of anything the earth would provide for them. They lived in cone-shaped shelters called tepees in which they built with cattail leaves and birch bark (Ditchfield 10). To construct these tepees they would find long wooden poles and stretch an excess amount of cloth over it then tie the top of the poles together (11). When it came to chow the Chippewas were eager to hunt. The men of the tribe were to play their role by hunting for their families. They would hunt animals such as elk, rabbit, bear, moose, and deer (12). Other tactics used to catch prey were to set snares, fish in canoes, and use bows and arrows (13). “Chippewa women gathered nuts, berries, and wild rice” (15). Although, living off the land could be hard at times the Chippewas used the land as much as they could to their advantage.…

Iroquois’ culture and way of life resembles “real world” realities. The Iroquois’ attitudes towards nature are sincere. Myths like these elaborate and confine with the conflict between the differences and similarities of the world. For example in nature there are animals that rely on other species to live. If a species were to extinguish, other species would soon die…
There seems to be no small amount of literature on how Native Americans are represented in our popular culture. Over the past several decades, Native Americans have been mythologized in films, TV, video games and other forms of popular media. And, “For the most part, the white man’s visual expressions of Native peoples have been dominant” (Boehme, et al. 1998:75). It is these depictions that have created a false impression of American Indians. As anyone could guess, the conquest of the American Frontier in the Old West is a period in this country’s history that has been mythicized in the media countless times. Historical issues like cultural genocide, colonization, and geographical displacement were the basis for creating these fresh, new ideas that portrayed…
The discovery that Native Americans' culture is not static, is a relatively new one. With the aid of modern archeology, we now know that the Natives were very complex and were ever changing. The evidence we have now is still basic, but we can still learn a lot from it. Because of the lack of evidence, a lot of controversy is attributed to Native Americans. Some people believe that Natives were perfect beings, living in harmony with nature and others believe that they were savages due to human sacrifices, wars, etc. Natives are also often compared to Europeans who like them, engaged in warfare as well. One large difference is that Europeans had more capability to cause destruction compared to the Natives, due to their technology and organization…
