For tonight, read pg 408-414 (until the 'cattle' part) in section 13.1 about the clash of Native American and White cultures on the Prairie
This section is one of the reasons we should be careful about using textbooks as the ABSOLUTE truth. As you read, pay attention to how the book describes the events (Sand Creek, Wounded Knee, etc).
On your blog, post your opinion/response: Do you think the textbook tells both sides of the story (From the American perspective AND the Native American perspective, or just one side)? Why do you think this is the case? If you were the editor of our textbook, what else would you like to know about this topic?
If you can think of other comments or questions you have about this topic, add it in to your response! It's kind of a 'free-write' opportunity
Your response should be at least a paragraph long and show that you have read the section and have an opinion on it!
