One of the main jobs of historians is to interpret the past by reviewing primary documents, scholarly secondary sources, and then creating an analysis of this research. After reading your text and reviewing the assigned materials, submit an analysis of the Native American experience during the late 1800s.
You might want to consider the following questions, but you are not limited to them: Is the history of Native Americans taught in American schools to the proper extent? What were the goals of white Americans/ Native Americans in these confrontations? What was the true purpose of the Ghost Dance? What was the goal of the boarding schools? How should the battle of Wounded Knee be remembered or taught? How should modern Americans view the legacy of the boarding schools?
