Settlers Vs New Settlers Analysis
The issues with this meaning is that also on page 7, there is a part explaining “reference to people other than colonizers”. This is being evaded due to the fact that there could have been individuals who was already living in that country. Also, the "new locality" might be exactly the same. It cannot be new if there were other individuals living there. It is the same land there are just new settlers there. Another issue she states is "process of forming a community” and colonizers actually “un-forming or re-forming the communities that existed there already” (pg. 8). New people will make their own way and their own way of trade and tradition. Not everything will be the same when new settlers arrive. She finalizes her definition of

    The Dutch company profited from fur trade, but not many people came so they let a variety of people in the colony. More Dutch, Germans, French, Scandinavians, and other Europeans settled the area. They also included Africans, free and enslaved. They were friendlier with the Natives, unlike the English. They traded them furs and the Dutch were smart enough not to anger the powerful Iroquois, however the Dutch did have fights with smaller tribes over land and trade rivalries.…

    Both groups shared similarities in their strong religious practices, the Jamestown settlers made the proclamation that they were members of the Anglican Church, the official Church of England while the Pilgrims were opposition members of the Church of England and formed the Puritan or the Congregational Church. Although having such strong religious faith, both groups were stricken with disease, starvation, hunger, environmental hazards and conflicts with the Natives. Due their uncooperative lifestyle with each other, inexperience, unwillingness to work hard, and the lack of survival skills in the wilderness led to arguments, disagreements, and inaction at Jamestown. In addition, poor relationship with the Indians worsened their situation.…

    The first step towards a better relationship is to relocate the Natives to a designated area suitable for their simple way of life with plenty of resources and where no harm will come of them, and no further uprising and revolts may erupt. An area that is out of the way of the colony’s further expansion. Along with their lush lands, the colonies should supply the Natives the means to learn our ways by building them schools, trading posts, and other businesses to catch up the Native’s technologies. This will allow our relationship to better develop and intertwine our communities. First and foremost we must thrive for peace before the colony's hold over the region becomes too much to handle and lose this land altogether. The first to explore this land come to this new country and wrote that when they first came to meet these Natives that at first meeting them they were afraid but eventually made gestures of peace and welcoming. John Smith, captain of one of the first to explore these…

    Imagine waking up one morning to find that you are in a completely unfamiliar place. First, there were a few new neighbors, then more and more foreigners came along and now your whole town seems foreign. All the local shops are bought by corporations and the old ways of life have been altered. This is the well-known matter called colonization, which is the action or process of settling among and establishing control over the indigenous people of an area. Gary Pak does a fantastic job of displaying this subject within his story, “The Watcher of Waipuna.” The story brings up a concern about whether or not colonization is healthy and or necessary, for natives and for foreigners. Works of literature including: “The Watcher of Waipuna” by Gary Pak,…

    I find that the passage is helpful in differentiating between the wilderness in terms of nature and landscape and the metaphorical wilderness in which humans have to endure to get by. Her intricate dissection of Georges character through her sentence structure and narrative voice, helps illustrate how immigrants should, in her opinion, live within the ‘wilderness’ that is outside of Wacousta…

    In colonial America, the citizens did not know exactly what they wanted for their government. The colonists knew they didn’t want their lives to be like they had been in England. They were open to ideas; they did not know what would work and what wouldn’t. The colonists knew that trial and error was the best idea at the time. The democratic and undemocratic features of colonial America were very apparent in that democracy as it was a work in progress.…

    In the early 1800s, White settlements were expanding westward. This threatened the Cherokee land which was located in the Southeastern part of the United States. This left the Cherokee with a big decision to make for their entire tribe. Would they relocate West ,or stay for the White settlements to invade where they call home. After all, the Cherokee had owned the land for over 10,000 years. It was not the United States’ land to take. This is why many of the Cherokee Nation felt the need to stay. Others wanted to move because they felt that if they did not, then the United States territory would override the Cherokee customs and they would have to follow United States laws. Clearly the best chance of survival for the Cherokee was to stay in…

    He talks about people's roots how migrants have a hard time planting them in a new place, saying, "these migrants drag their exposed roots and have trouble putting them down in new places" (Stegner 200). He uses this to argue his point that people should stay put for a while and let their roots grow and become planted before picking up and moving again. However, he goes on to say that, "some people don't want to put [their roots] down… The American home is often a mobile home" (Stegner 200-201). Our way of life is one where we are restless and "hooked on change" (Stegner 204). Americans enjoy the constant change of scenery and do not mind that our roots never take hold in the soil, as Stegner wants us to do. We just pick up and move, never allowing ourselves to get to know the land on which we lived or are living. He then makes a comparison of a "displaced person" and a river's current, saying, "[A displaced person] has a current like the Platte, a mile wide and an inch deep" (Stegner 200). A displaced person moves quickly like the river current, though never stays in one place for a long time, similarly to the inch of water skimming over the rocks. Stegner goes on to say that the displaced person is, "acquainted with many places, [but] is rooted in none" (Stegner 200). The person does not believe he is lacking anything. On the contrary, he is content…
