Usc essay

Usc students have come to help us learn our history. Pretty much about the Native Americans. We now know what their lives were like suprises. They did not know what was in store for them in the future.

The Natives originally came from the north and not the south as some people would have thought they did. People say that the Natives have came from the mekenzie quaters. These had melted during the Ice Ages,  so the Natives had moved south. The Natives moved south because there were better food resources if you had moved south. They had mostly ate fish, but their other foods were buffalo, corn, and patatoes.

Christopher Columbus was the person that had discovered Native Americans. He was really interested in the way there skin color was darker than most people he has seen. He was an selfish and greedy man, they did the Natives bad! They came  to a place that wasn't even theirs and tried to take it over by force.

The Natives trade a lot so that they can get things they needed. The people that I know of they traded were with the Europeans. The food that the Europeans had carried over to the Natives brought new diseases to the Native people. The Natives were free of diseases until Europeans traded their goods to the Natives. The Natives did not even know what they had got into as far as diseases because they didn't know what that was.

I think this was wrong for the Europeans to do to the Natives because the Natives weren't aware. I think if the Natives were more aware they would of been more cautious. This is what had wiped out a lot of the Native race. The Europeans could have been more nice and told them there were things that they needed to be worried about.

On thing that was really wrong is how they just took over the Natives land. I mean I can see if you were there first but they were not there first. They didn't just come up and ask for it or give them nothing for it they took it by force. The Natives didn't have force like the Europeans so they couldn't really defend themselves. I think if they were more prepared that wouldn't have happened like that. They  would of still had all of their land.

What is an American?

There are many Americans in this world, some wealthy some poor anything you can think of. Americans come in all shapes, colors, sizes, but it really doesn't matter because you're still an American. A lot of people come to America to become and American because they might not like their country because of the rules or anything that might be. We have many immigrants in our country too.

America is like a get away spot for people from different countries, it is basically everyone's paradise. Some countries have rules they have to follow while the United States of America you can do anything you want and more. If I were an immigrant I would want to come here too just because this country is so free. However you have to get legal documentation to be able to come the the United States anyway. There are too many immigrants that live out here that are trying to be Americans or just trying to get away. People are really getting deported back to their own countries if they are not legal here because it's just too many people in Los Angeles.

Back in the 1700's people from Europe and all over came to North America to escape from their own country. They did that so they can have a better life for themselves and be free  with not so many rules to their lives. A lot of people came for religious reasons because it is a free country, yo can believe in what you want instead of believing what someone else thinks is right and not expressing yourself. You can speak more when  you're an American, because if you were in another country , you could possibly get punished for things that you might say or do. People actually dream about living in the United States to  be FREE.

The different types of Americans there is are African-Americans, Caucasian, and Native Americans. I think there are more than these three but I really can not say all of them right this moment. To be an American from another country you have to get your green card or you will NOT be legal. I am not sure how the process is but i don't think that it is that hard to get legal documentation. Might as well go through the hassle so you will not be deported back to your original country.

Most Americans are really helpful people, a lot but not all. Americans have helped people all across this world if you really want to know. America will help out the poor people of different countries because they just do not have anything. People say Americans are really selfish people, I would agree to some extent but ll of us are not like that. America is the best resource for any one! They have all the things you may or may not need and more. Americans are not so bad, and some Americans are not so good.
