Diary entry 2:
We landed in independence, MO. We took a little rest overnight and one of the Indians took our kid Hamilton Weaver. We have not found him yet and I think that they are going to give up hope. He's been gone for 5 weeks and we are already at the Platte River.I can only imagine what he looked like: blonde and brunette hair but mostly brunette about 3”. I didn't know him that well because he usually just stayed in the wagon but most people say that he was really nice and never complained, even when he had an empty stomachs It's very humid after a night at Fort Henry, Platte River is running high we tried to cross the river by floating our wagon across. I cauked my wagon and lost one day of food supplies that we couldn't afford to lose. The leader said that it’s okay and we will try to get some food from Shoshone indians considering that they are very nice. Later that night we found a Shoshone camp, it took awhile for everyone to warm up to each other. Their leader Black Dog was a very good leader we made some exchanges with them because they gave us a lot of food they even let us eat supper with them. We all sat around the campfire telling stories Black Dog's son black bear had very good stories about the other pioneers along the trail, he said that many of them tried to kill them so that they could steal their food and animals, but

Once the men were ready, they all went walking towards the “whites village,” chanting our tribes incantation:''Tous des sauvages, des sauvages!" The whole tribe was chanting back and forth. While the tribe was marching their way over there, I tagged along but hiding behind them.

There were a couple of stories that really stood out to me. The first was “The Story of Defender.” I really enjoyed this story because it keep me on the edge of my seat the whole time and taught about two important values of the Lakota people—bravery and humility. When Hoka was fourteen years old, he was invited on a hunting party and was given the job of guarding the camp, which contained elk meat and elk hides for many families back in their village. One day, when the hunters went out, Hoka encountered a “bear.” He considered going and looking for the hunters, but he knew if a bear came and took the meat while he was looking for them he would be responsible, so he stayed and defended the camp. After watching the “bear” scurry through the brush for a while, Hoka took a shot. He heard a slight cry and when he went to look where the bear was hiding, he saw blood. Hoka believed he had shot and wounded a bear, but when the hunters returned later that night and asked if anything happened, he simply said
The two character traits `I don’t like Austin is that he is bitter and rude about most things that happen to him. One example of this would be when he was talking to Mr.Greene (the vice principal)on pg. 129 the last paragraph he was screaming at an adult in a position of power, all because of what he didn't want Tyson to be in the Shadow Club. The only reason he didn't want Tyson to get in because he had a bad first impression. This shows that Jared was bitter because he was scared Tyson would leak to everyone what the Shadow Club is and what they did and rude to not let Tyson in and to scream at an adult. I thought Jared is bitter because in the chapter of “What Ralphy Said” pranks were being pulled that
“”Here,” he said. “Give me your hand. We are brothers. You are my son. I pass to you my vision, even though I cannot pass to you my knowledge. There lies in the ground not far from here one who truly was my son. He could not bear the pain of knowing two truths. And so I give my vision to you who knows one one. Perhaps it will be easier to bear. Perhaps it will be easier to share.”” Throughout the book Neither Wolf Nor Dog by Kent Nerburn, the author travels a long way from his home to visit the reservation of a Native American elder named Dan. Nerburn agrees to write a book for Dan that will attempt to convey some aspects of American Indian life and truth in contrast to false images displayed in pop culture. This passage contributes to the
During the days of sitting bull there were three boys, and the chief and all the men had left to go hunt, but the three boys had stayed behind because sitting bull had said the boy weren’t men yet so they had to stay back and watch the village.The three boys had decided that they were gonna go and prove they were man enough to hunt so the boy’s had left when the tribe was sleeping so they tried to go hunt and prove to their tribes chief sitting bull that they were men.
Like a coin dropped between the cushions of a couch, traditional oral storytelling is a custom fading away in current American culture. For Native Americans, however, the practice of oral storytelling is still a tradition that carries culture and rich history over the course of generations. Three examples of traditional oral stories, “How Men and Women Got Together”, “Coyote’s Rabbit Chase”, and “Corn Mother”, demonstrate key differences in perspectives and values among diverse native tribes in America.
Holding tightly onto the wooden flower woven box you gave me , I’m in california. The trip was long and hard.
