Final Reflections

Coming into this class I knew little to nothing about Native Americans, their culture and their past. I can proudly say that this has changed. Some of the stories I have learned have changed my perspective on the U.S. government and Native Americans. Some stories have even given me nightmares. What I took away from this class was more refined writting skills and a better understanding of Native Americans. I also had no idea that some Native Americans had ill feelings towards white people in general. Maybe I should have thought about it, but prior to this class, I had only a brief explanation from U.S. history. Overall  I had a pretty good experience this quater. Although I missed all the guess speakers, Kohl and Paco, and I was unable to attend any of the Muckleshoot events. I still enjoyed the class time and some of the projects.
