more than one sentence, using proper grammar.
Three historical lenses that I could apply to gain a fuller picture of the relationship between
Natives and white settlers is cultural, social, and political
Module 7 Short Responses – Question 2
Revise the thesis statement at the top of this page to reflect a more complex view of the
relationship between Natives and white settlers. Your revised thesis statement should be
longer than one sentence.
Land disputes were at the root of Native American conflicts with white settlers in the early
19th century. Because of colonism and racist views and idealism the white settlers used their
military and political power to control and take over the Natives land.
Module 7 Short Responses – Question 3
Name three historical lenses that you could use to look at the events described in the
video you just saw.
First cultural because of the differences between the Natives and the white settlers there were
cultural differences because the pilgrims did not like feasting or merrymaking. Secondly, I
would say religious lens because of the religious differences the settlers were Puritans and
thought of Thanksgiving as a day of prayer to give thanks to God. Third I would say social
because of the interactions between the settlers and the Natives and the things they learned
from each other.

previous event or events? (Name one or two.)
The Patuxet disease (The smallpox) which wiped out the young Tisquantum's tribe, but he

also been struck by the disease this pushed them to come to terms with each other.
Module 7 Short Responses – Question 5
Name one short-term consequence and one long-term consequence of the alliance

One short term consequence was agreeing to a mutual defense alliance against allies and one
long term consequence was that more Englishman puritans, and non religous settlers began to
arrive in New England damaging the relationship between them.
Module 7 Short Responses – Question 6
How has your understanding of the historical event in your essay changed as a result of
your research? Describe one instance of a misconception or a wrong idea you had about
your topic that has been corrected after researching and writing about it.
Prior to researching this topic, I had little knowledge about voting rights in America
especially for African Americans and I was not taught about voting rights for people of color
in school. My understanding has changed greatly as a result of my research because I have
learned more about my black history a misconception, I had was that I was going to be
learning in viewpoints of racist idealism but instead I learned more about political and social
movements and political views.
Module 7 Short Responses – Question 7
Name four historical lenses through which you could analyze the events of the Cherokee
Removal. Specify one aspect of this event for each lens that you cite.
1. Political because when Andrew Jackson was elected President in 1828, he made decisions
about the Cherokees and said they must disappear because white people were the superior
race.
2. Cultural the Cherokees rebuilded and transformed themselves after the smallpox in the
1700's and wars with the colonists they established a government, and they created their own
written language.
3. Military . - Van Buren, ordered the removal of nearly 3,000
Cherokee by force. This resulted in the deaths of hundreds of cherokees.
4. Racial : Racism was definitely to play in this as President Andrew Jackson deemed whites
as the superior race and called for their removal.
