Write An Apology To People

I'm sure you have heard countless accounts of how we mistreated the Indians spread out on the frontier and went behind their backs countless times, so I won't make you go to the trouble of reading the whole entire agonizingly boring retelling of events again. Basically, we promised the Native American tribes protected plots of land out west if they willingly move out there. Pioneers massacred the Natives who refused to trudge for thousands of miles just for a land alien to them. Indians who did migrate westward died countless diseases like smallpox, cholera, dysentery and things like starvation and eloped fatigue. America didn't actually give any land to the Native Americans who made the trip westwards to their guaranteed land. It doesn't take a genius to decipher from the reading that pioneers abhorrently disrespected the people who helped our ancestors make it through their first winter in North America, who helped us grow crops efficiently, the people we originally befriended and coexisted with for a long

Mr Bascana, I urge you to reconsider your views on the Indians you and your countrymen have encountered since arriving to this land. Although our various tribes may not share your same beliefs and values we are still equal human beings. Most of the natives you have encountered have not been hostile and have exchanged gifts and good with one another. The fact that you would accuse the natives of hypocrisy and deceitfulness is unjust because it is the Spaniards not the indians who have sought to deceive. Do not forget that you are all visitors to our land, however your soldiers have deliberately sought to destroy my people’s way of life.

Please do whatever you can do to boldly lead us into racial reconciliation. The last several years and election have brought the racial divide into an intense spotlight. It cannot and should not be ignored any longer and I’m asking you to take the lead in recognition and confession.

I Xanthus Huddleston would like to apologize for pulling the fire alarm and causing panic and dismay throughout your establishment I now know the consequences of pulling the fire alarm and I now know not to ever do it again one reason it was not acceptable to pull the fire alarm is due to the fact that it could make people mess around during a real emergency and could cause someone to lose their life or become severely injured I am truly sorry for my actions and would appreciate it if you would accept my

We, the Natives, deserve fairness and respect. Although you may believe that you know who we are or what has been done to us, we are here to say that you do not. Over the course of this war (and many years prior to it) our hospitable and respectful people have been taken advantage of, brutally assaulted, and viciously murdered. You’ve attacked men, women, and children, all while encroaching upon their territories. After the Battle of Tippecanoe, American soldiers were ashamed with the results, so they dug up Native graves in Prophetstown. The army scattered corpses around to make it seem as though this battle had resulted in a great victory over the Aboriginal peoples. Multiple bodies were scalped and defaced during this horrendous act. Indigenous

Please accept my apology for this seeming carelessness. I have realized that I should have been more careful. It makes me feel so bad that I did something that does not reach your standard. But, I like to assure not happening something similar in future. I just started working hard to refine my proposal following your comments.

Great post, I would like to elaborate further on your point of the importance of taking responsibility in apology makes it more effective.

With that said, the United States still has not fully apologized for the violence and harassment did to the indigenous people years ago. It is obvious that Australia and Canada officially apologized to the indigenous people for the mistreatment they have done but not the United States. In addition to Australia and Canada, the United States should have to apologize to indigenous people. Even though millions of indigenous people lost their families when the United States took over their land, it is still not too late to apologize for those who are still alive. It might give the native people a little relief in the desolation that they might still have for losing their loved

This is the world in which we live: a world in which the white man robs us of tradition and deprives us of the lands that have sheltered our generation, our fathers’ generations, and our ancestors’ generations. What harm have we done to deserve this? We merely desire to reside on our lands, vast expanses of beautifully rugged terrain, in peace. And why must this simple right ever come into question? Yet question it they do. Flouncing on our land, a group of white men have declared to us that everything we know is about to change. Without permission or concern for us, they began a process of expropriating our land from us. They announced to us, these people who invaded our land, that our lands belong to them; henceforth we are to be moved to new land, inadequate land, land they call “reservations.” Do they not realize that these lands that we live upon hold bonds, sacred and treasured, with us, the caretakers of this terrain?

First, I would like to apologize to my victims. I feel like I had no rights coming in and affecting your life. Sometimes I think and feel like there are no words that can sufficiently express how sorry I really am for violating your personal space. I know an apology will not be enough to make this better, but I just want you to know how sorry I am for making a poor decision. I feel like the justice made sure I had a cruel punishment for I did. Even though there’s no justification for what I did, I was blinded by the selflessness of power and not looking at it from a victims stand point. I have no greater regrets than the damage I caused you and your family. Again I want to say I'm sorry and I will always be hunted by past decisions.

Forgiveness, one researcher defined, is the victim’s willingness to forego desire for retribution and demands for atonement. Forgiveness is critical in determining whether couples repair their relationships and restore closeness following hurtful events. Hurtful events includes psychological pain, and it can be as acute and aversive as the physical pain of bodily injury, and it sometimes lasts far longer. In a previous study indicates that seven distinct communication responses to hurtful events. Relational repair, Integrative Communication, and Loyalty have been described as constructive or conciliatory communication. Relational repair tactics are designed to enhance the relationship through actions such as being affectionate, romantic, and

Please accept my sincere and humble apology for any display of rude and behavior on 7 February, 2017. It pains me to discover that my frustrated and disappointed conduct about my parking citations have upset any employees of the Parking and Business offices. There is so much done for the entire student body every day by you that it is very unfair of me to think that you were not working to understand our circumstances and help us in a feasible way. I really and genuinely did not mean to portray any offensive or intimidating behavior to you and all of the other employees, in fact I was more surprised by the reality of the expensive sum before me as I had already spent a large quantity of my earnings and the semester has just barely started.

On behalf of the government of our beautiful nation, we apologize, we apologize for all the wrongdoings that was inflicted upon you and your people. The ban that we created on the subsidies on you, the inhabitants of Chiapas, was approved to secure a deal with our neighbours to the north, and will benefit millions of our residents, for the cost of only a few. Your response to our ban may have brought some unwanted global attention, but it did shine a light on the key issues that you face. We have realized that this was unlawful and our duty to the citizens of Mexico extends to you and other Indigenous groups and for that, we apologize. We also recognize that the decisions that are being made to influence the future of this country should involve

Forgiveness, what is it you might ask? For me personally forgiveness highlights a shift in thinking to someone who has hurt you. Through personal experience I have been involved in a lot of forgiveness, usually the side doing the forgiving. Lately the term forgiveness has actually caused quite a stir in the scholarly world today. Under what condition is forgiveness morally acceptable, required, or improper? Arguably the most important part of forgiveness is the fact it’s scientifically proven to improve your health.

Beginning as a proud group of nations, the perception of Native Americans changed when Christopher Columbus first arrived in the New World in 1492. After describing the people who inhabited the land as animals inferior to himself, Columbus created a lasting image of Native Americans that would become adopted by other Europeans as they began to establish settlements in North America. With the belief that Native Americans were inferior to Europeans, they began to take the land of the indigenous people as their own, simultaneously conducting a mass genocide so as to nearly erase the Native culture. Native Americans became forgotten and had little value in society as their voice and place in America diminished. This perception of Native Americans as unimportant is still prevalent today. By examining Layli Long Soldier's poem Whereas, the NPR interview U.S. Apology To Native Americans: Unnecessary Or Not Enough?, and the Hyperallergic article Navajo Nation Responds to the Threat of Uranium Radiation, it is evident, based on their treatment, that Native Americans are still viewed as unimportant in the eyes of the American people.
