related to the Indian Tribes at hand. In my readings I learned about some of their history‚ tradition‚ and culture. One book that I read excerpts out of was the History of the Ottawa and Chippewa Indians of Michigan by Andrew J. Blackbird. This book was written a very long time ago in 1887. I chose this book because it was written by a Native American and I thought it would give a very good untainted perspective about the true history of the West Michigan Indian tribes.

Most people depend on family during times of hardship. The bond of family is so powerful that it almost seems as if everybody was a part of one big family‚ many problems would be minimized. My community‚ the Hopi tribe‚ designed an extremely unique and broad family connection that has been a sustainable means of life for thousands of years. I admire our family system that allows us to overcome the challenges we face in the community. Mission teams come to our community from the east and west coast

Generally speaking I loved the idea that Plenty Coup had in making sure the story and history of the crow tribe was told. Lear’s formulating thoughts and ideas about Coupe and the crow tribe history help organize the story in a way that much of the content seemed more mythical than real. The main point I got from the first chapter was the discovering of what life meant for someone after facing great defeat or mishaps in life.
