The Canary Effect: The Struggle Between Native Americans And African Americans

The reason why we see the Native Americans and African Americans down the stratification ladder is because for the fact that hundreds of years these two groups of people were used as slaves, and seen as something lower than a human being. After the slave trade ended, this world event in history, still excits today within these two ethnic groups. For example, The Civil Rights movement, this event was clearly a big step in American history to invert two different races together because of the color of their skin. To have taken down the rules that separates whites and blacks from ever interacting from each other was a really giant step into the normal day by day society that feared many white Americans. Many of these things that changed the world as we know it now, includes going to school, using the same transportation, watching a movie in the theaters, even using the water fountain and much more rules within the society that joined them together. All of these new rules did not come too easy to many white Americans, to now share almost everything was very hard and even a scary thing to do. The Canary Effect shows the untold stories between Native American people and white Americans, it is gruesome and a very true story. By taking their land, and killing their people is only the beginning of this story it can show how far American people would do to remove a race from earth. It even shows that American people would even Americanize the Native Americans to the point that they forgot their own heritage.
