Native American populations have traditionally embraced a different narrative, referring to the same process as one of invasion and genocide. As you were growing up, how was the story portrayed to you? Do you think it was framed with a certain bias? If so, why do you think that was? Explain your position. 2) The story that Columbus and his contemporaries told of their own experiences was dramatized in the short video in slide 7 of our lecture. How did this telling of the story of Columbus’ interaction with the Taino people make you feel? 3) In our current political culture, intense conflicts are occurring concerning what individuals of the past are celebrated in our national holidays and public spaces through monuments like statues. How do you feel about these conflicts? is the removal of statues an attack upon history, or is it an attack on public symbols associated with hatred and violence? Do you think there is a compromise position that can take place? Authentically explain your thoughts (in other words, there are no wrong answers to this question, I want to know how you feel).
