My second post – and I’m frustrated with not knowing how to do things. How do I delete? How do I answer someone? I’m sure I’ll learn, in time, but I’m at the frustration level right now.
So this blog is to deal with what I’ve learned today – or yesterday. Every class I attend teaches me something. This morning I was in my American Indian Resistance class and since I’ve not studied American Indians previously, I’m learning quite a bit! Different slant than the average, “normal” history class. Here we are learning about the Indian resistance to assimilation. The teacher discussed the Indian boarding schools, the land-grabbing by the US gov’t and their rationalization behind it. As a country, we’ve been the bully for a long time! We haven’t learned anything through the years. We still push our beliefs, our life-style, our form of gov’t, our love of material goods, on other societies.
