Jimmy Carter's View Of Globalization

There are limitless opinions of globalization, every person seems to have a unique view of it. Some hold with the idea that it is a positive force, that it is what will lead to a thriving global community where we all prosper. Others say that it is something to avoid, that globalization is leading us to a world where the wealthy countries overpower all other cultures. There are also those who fall in between, who may agree with some aspects of globalization and disagree with some other aspect. Also, there are some people who do not have an opinion on it because they simply do not know about it or do not care enough to form one. Then there are those who completely ignore globalization’s role in earthen history, here I am referring to Jimmy Carter.
When the Europeans first settled onto Newfoundland they did not realize that they were settling down right on top of the Beothuk homeland. Admittedly the Beothuk did not deal with it in the best way (by destroying the Europeans stuff), but the Europeans did no better when they started to hunt the Beothuk. This drove them inland and as the Beothuk were unaccustomed to living without access to the sea they soon parished. We should not be allowed to forget this culture that was destroyed because of historical globalization, we need to remember it and ensure something similar does not occur. Another culture that was damaged heavily during the time of historical globalization was the Northern African culture. North Americans often took Africans as slaves to work for them, by doing this they damaged their culture. In the African tribes, there was no longer many men to fight or do the hard work that the woman were accustomed to doing and as there were so few men procreation was difficult. Today we can see the legacies of these events in racism and the weakness of the African culture and their need to affirm themselves as a people. Another group struggling to affirm themselves due to the legacies of historical globalization is the Lubicon Cree. Unlike other Native tribes they did not sign a treaty at the Canadian government refused to admit that they were Natives and for the most part simply ignored them. So they live under terrible conditions in a place where oil and lumber companies are free to come in and set up businesses that disrupt the Lubicon way of life as they wish. These groups are struggling to affirm themselves because of what happened during the time of historical globalization, to ignore the past would be to ignore
