.... Eagle, pertain to the fact that we do not respect the land that the Indians live on. Of these three pieces, the first two take place in the 1850's to 1870's. The passage of The Land of the Spotted Eagle takes place at a later time in the 1930's. There is also agreement of the three in the spiritual sense of the land. In Chief Seattle's speech, he talks in more of the spiritual sense of the land. But it is in direct relationship to the abuse that the White Man exerts on the land. He makes many references towards the Indian Spiritual being, that he is very different from that of the White Man. He makes many analogies towards that of the spiritual importance .....

.... countries at the time. However the Soviet Union and China only supplied North Vietnam with war materials, they did not send troops or soldiers to aide them. Logically president Lyndon B. Johnson decided to aide South Vietnam to balance things out. The only difference is that Johnson would send troops to help South Vietnam, as opposed to Soviet Union and China. Some alternative options the president considered before making the decision he did was to simply ignore the issue, keep the present involvement with Vietnam the way it was, or he could decrease involvement with Vietnam. Well, luckily the president did in fact reach the decision of aiding South Vi .....

.... police helicopters flying above is a familiar tune, Boyz N the Hood is basically the story of three teenage friends coming of age in black urban America. It is their story of street life where friendship, pain, danger, and love combine to form their harsh reality. Unlike previous films Singleton addresses issues that relate more to the younger generation of that time. Tre, the main character is obviously the one who is on the right track toward adulthood. He has a job, plans to go to college and, “most important (as writer-director Singleton sees it, at any rate) he lives with his father” (Tornquist 1). Brothers Doughboy and Ricky, on the other .....

.... people returned, again. Wiget states: "A cup was left with this, and the Indians began pouring whiskey into this cup and smelling it, all being much pleased with the odor," (115). They began to trade their Indian goods for white possessions, and thus, that is how the white people came to be. The whiskey symbolized something positive in this story because it was, to the Indians, not only a gift, but an unspoken message telling them, "Although we are white people, we will not hurt you and we would like to be your friends." As contradicting as it would be in our society today, the whiskey was symbolic of friendship and trust to the Native Americans and the w .....

.... nuclear energy or nuclear weapons. Demonstrators sit on the road in front of a nuclear power station or block the way of trucks or trains, which carry nuclear waste. Another very popular example is the French tests of nuclear weapons in the pacific. People opposed them and the press all over the world was talking about these tests. That was non-violent resistance. Marches all over the world and other non-violent actions. Also Martin Luther King didn't use violence in his fight for the rights of the black people in America. An example which all of us see and experience from time to time, is the strike. made the strike as a way of fighting popular and it is .....

.... conquerors of Rome accepted Christianity as their religion, as well as all of Rome's culture. Christianity was widely spread throughout the Roman Empire by groups of missionaries led by the Apostles Peter, Paul and John. All of the people who had previously practiced the Roman religion now would practice Christianity. The expression, “Love thy neighbor” was a very essential lesson for the Christians. It formed their bases of living (Fenton 34). The Christians were using maintainable operations. Many people who had learned about it through missionaries were following this religion. The missionaries spent long hours and put forth much effort in their attem .....

.... Bull Run Creek twisted and turned through Manassas Junction. The Shenandoah Valley, a Southern stronghold was thirty miles to the northwest of Manassas Junction. Both the Bull Run Creek and the nearby Shenandoah Valley gave the South two advantages in this battle. In July 1861, tow armies faced each other in Northern Virginia. General Irvin McDowell, commander of the Union Army of the Potomac had 31,000 men in Washington. General Beauergard of the Confederate Army had 20,000 troops camped around Manassas Junction. To the north, near Harriers Ferry, Confederate General Joseph Johnston with 9,000 soldiers faced off with Union General Patterson who was dug i .....

.... for a convicted crime. After the Civil War many civil rights laws were passed based on the Thirteenth Amendment but were later repealed. Congress drew the conclusion that racial discrimination did not place blacks in servitude. For years after it was believed that Congress did not have the power under the amendment to deal with racial discrimination. In the Jones v. Mayer case of 1968 helped to bring back the power of a lost Thirteenth civil rights law. The law stated that all citizens of The United States had the right to purchase, sell, or rent any territory that could be enjoyed by white citizens. Jones had sued Mayer because he refused to sell him .....
