    In the late 1800’s the Americans viciously forced many Native Americans off their lands all because the federal government wanted the U.S. to expand and obtain Manifest Destiny. The main Native American and tribe that stood against the federal government was Sitting Bull, Chief of the Sioux and entire Lakota nation. He led a large amount of Sioux warriors in many battles against the American government that were fought over the rights and lands of the Lakota nation. He was against the American government and the forceful ways that they took over Indian lands, and therefore he used his strong, spiritual leadership abilities to battle against the American government as well as the U.S army. The author of the biography Sitting Bull and the Paradox of Lakota Nationhood, was written by Gary C. Anderson, because he feels that all Americans should acknowledge the will-power, leadership, determination, and courage of a man like Sitting Bull before him and his impact on Native American and American history is forgotten and lost like most history. As the Americans moved farther and farther westward, they had no reason to harshly force the Indians off their homelands, and Sitting Bull’s refusal against the American government and its armies has left an impact that has shaped the culture many Native American’s way of life.…

    Evolutionary biologists believe that birds evolved from reptiles. Their skeletal structure and blood cells of today’s birds share a surprising foundation with reptiles. According to biologists, feathers may have evolved from the scales of reptilian skin, also. From 144 million to 66 million years ago, during the Mesozoic era, the first birds began to evolve. Fossils from this time showed that early birds had teeth. Tens of millions of years ago, a group of birds called kites evolved. Early kites were thought to have scavenged and hunted for fish, much like Bald Eagles do now. The Archaeopteryx resembled both a bird and a reptile. Except for the feathers and bird-like feet, it didn't look like a bird at all. The jaws had teeth, which birds don't…
