Native Americans Persuasive Speech
Welcome to Give America to Native Americans! We’re so happy to have you.
The title of this organization kind of says it all. We’re trying to give the United States of America back to the Native American Indian tribes. Not only have we been fighting for the true history of Pocahontas, America to be returned to its rightful founders, but we’ve also been trying to get Washington Redskins to change their name and mascot.
Here’s another thing: we’ve made petitions, mostly on change.org and it would be perfect and loyal to God if you’d sign a few of them.
If you want to listen to God and the fairness, you’d definitely help.
Fact: Native American Indians commit suicide because of losing their dear America.
Other fact: We’ve done nothing to help them—until

    The use of Indian culture by non-Indians as mascots, logos, and nicknames has been a constant fight for years. Schools have been using names of tribes with aggressive, stoic histories for their sports teams. But the Native Americans look at that and feel discriminated against, because of the negative stereotype given by that type of label.…

    These mascots also help spread and continue stereotypes because “most Americans have no direct or personal experience with contemporary American Indians” (463). The mascots and inaccurate depictions of American Indians are not only harming the psychological well-being of the minority by making it difficult for them to form an individual identity as well as a group identity, but are also keeping the majority from forming well-educated opinions and attitudes towards them. All parties involved are harmed because it further separates them and keeps them from being able to coexist and work together on issues that affect them all. If the minority was not misrepresented and their real issues were not ignored, then the properly educated majority could help raise a voice for their rights (as the voice of the majority is listened to more than the voice of the minority, which is wrong). By allowing these mascots to continue “representing” and “honoring” American Indians, then the stereotypes are also being allowed to continue, and the majority is continuously…

    Around the world today a lot has been going on with African American male’s lives being taking. It’s getting to the point where I have to think. Will African American males be able to walk down the street or go somewhere without someone having to go with them. They shouldn’t have to live their lives like this. Each and every one might do wrong in a time in their lives but you can’t hold that against them. Everyone make mistake in their life time. These are people children that are being taking away from their home, family, and friends. We have to put an end to it. You may not care because it might not be someone from your family. Stop and think about if it was. How would you feel then? Black lives matter, all live matter.…

    Numerous years before Christopher Columbus discovered the Americas there were individuals living in North America. The Native American individuals, also called American Indians, had been living on the landmass of North America for a long time and the Americas found that there were more than 10 million Native Americans effectively living on the continent. Once the Europeans touched base in America things turned out to be much different. As time passed the Native American deteriorated. They were constrained off their properties and pushed further and further west with several promises being made that were never kept. There were many conflicts that occurred and wound up beginning the Indian Wars. To illustrate this point, the Native American’s…

    The sky had darkened, causing the lamp post to flickered on seconds later, as the outside world went to sleep. He sat down on the old gray office chair in the living room, waiting impatiently for the interview to start. He wore one of his favorite shirts, the white one with holes in it, and blue plaid pajama pants. His black eyes wandered across the room, as he scratched his beard looking as if he regretted agreeing to this interview. Holding a piece of yellow paper, for a guide to answering my questions, the interview began.…

    Seventy-thousand years ago, our ancestors were insignificant animals. The most important thing to know about prehistoric humans is that they were unimportant. Their impact on the world was not much greater than that of jellyfish or fireflies or woodpeckers. Today, in contrast, we control this planet. And the question is: How did we come from there to here?…
