What ive learned.

In the Man to Send Rain Clouds i learned that we all have different veiws and we have to choose whats right. The Indians wanted to burry the grandpa but they really want rain. they belive that when people die they go up and give them rain. They really wanted the gods to give them rain so they went threw their usual cerimony and then had the holly water. another thing is that they do rain dances to get rain.

In the way to rainy mountain i learned how unfair the indians are treated. they had their land taken away and got pushed into little areas. they also had all freedom taken away from them. they were killed if they didn't leave their homes so the whites could have it.


In all the stories it shows how the whites just invade their land. it also shows that we presure our beliefs on them. like in the man to send rain clouds the preist was there because he was suposed to be teaching them christianity.


i learned that if people believe in something they will do whatever it takes to show it. the indians belive in shiwana and practice it all the time and have dances and chant. the settlers took over their land and started to push christianity on them. the pilgrams believed in their religion and wanted to practice it freely so bad that they made the long dangorus jerny to the US so they could.

I learned that the indians are smart and nice people. they are smart because they could grow their own crops. and they are nice because in the plymouth plantation they were nice to the pilgrams and helped them grow food. then they had thanksgiving
