    Chapter one shows how different cultures took advantage of not only African Americans, but Native Americans as well. Native Americans were invaded by Spanish settlers, taken into slavery and forced to live with harsh living conditions. Settlers exposed them to a vast number of diseases, and tricked other Native Americans into agreements, in which they were starved, made to live in the cold, and which ultimately led to the death of many of them. Native Americans were resistant to being overtaken and fought back to protect their people and their land. Spanish conquerors like Lucas Vasquez de Ayllon sent out to find laborers. He landed off the coast of South Carolina in hopes of finding a location to start a colony. During his search, he found that Europeans practiced Christianity and did not believe in exploiting their people. A groups resisted, they looked to other…

    Like all world regions, Latin America is diverse. The geographic perspective clearly illustrates unity in diversity. With the arrival of Europeans, the number of indigenous people declined by as much as 90 percent during the course of the conquest, but their presence remains strong in many parts of Latin America. Also, during that time a large number of African slaves were brought and added into the cultural mix of Europeans and indigenous people through the slave trade. Today, the African presence is quite notable throughout the Caribbean, Brazil, and coastal Venezuela, and Colombia. The other part of immigrants arrived from Italy, Germany, Japan, and India.

    The Native-American and African-American communities in the united states have undergone countless adversities since before the birth of America. The South held a stronghold on the institution of slavery, while American colonists robbed the indigenous people of their land and culture.

In the years immediately succeeding the war, blacks, due to a powerful Republican influence in the federal and state governments, were far better off economically, politically, and socially than their Native-American equivalents. While blacks gained suffrage and equality under the law, the natives lost their…
