When the camp was moved away from the fort as it was some of the time during the year he would have to stay at the school or not go for he could not ride alone that far. Grey Eagle thought this would make it hard for Grey Wolf to learn form the school but would give him more time to learn to be an Indian. Grey Eagle wanted Grey Wolf too be an Indian first of all and to know the white man's ways second. Gray Eagle told Gray wolf that he did believe like the Missionary in one thing. Gray Eagle believed that if the Indian were to survived then he would have to learn to live with the white man.

This invasion was the largest amphibious operation conducted during World War II and utilized over 2,590 vessels and involved approximately a half million soldiers, sailors, and airmen.

    Black Elk Speaks written by John Newhart is a biography of a Native American. In the biography Neihardt takes us thru Black Elk’s experiences as the Wasichus (white man) take over the land he lives on. The Wasichus have always been monsters to the Natives. Young kids see them as monsters that will get you if you misbehave and adults see them as merciless murders, due to the fact that they killed many Native women and children; Wasichus also took away culture and tradition from them. We can see through use of pathos, logos, ethos, and diction that Black Elks attitude toward the Wasichus was resentful.…

    Seattle begins his oration by addressing the Governor as “the great” and “the Good White Chief”, which appeals to the Governor by feeding his ego and ethnic pride. Through this, Chief Seattle makes it clear that he recognizes the white’s superior status. This tactic used by the Chief insinuates sarcasm, but at the same time, brings the Governor to look favorably upon Seattle and his people despite his mocking intentions. By taking responsibility for the native’s condition, Seattle uses this strategy to successfully appear respectable and admirable to the Governor, although in reality he believes that his people are not the ones to be blamed. This exemplifies the Chief’s efforts to remain on the Governor’s “good side”. But the mockery does not end there; Seattle refers to the native warriors as beings whose “hearts are black”, accusing them and not the whites for jeopardizing the relationship between the Native Americans and Caucasians. To increase the authenticity behind his words, Seattle incorporates this simile into his speech, “my words are like stars that never change” this again, adds emphasis on his loyalty to work with the whites. By presenting himself as responsible, reasonable, inferior, apologetic, and respectful, Seattle makes an effort to win Stevens’ favor.…
