Salmon, Cedar, and People Not only does nature have the power to incite physical change, but it has the ability to influence important aspects of human life. Through “The Salmon Eaters” by Eden Robinson and “In the Shadow of Red Cedar” by Wade Davis, the link between First Nations culture and nature is examined. While both texts analyze the relationship between the natural world and Indigenous cultures, Robinson presents a personal exploration into the relationship between nature and cultural identity, and the importance of salmon in Haisla culture. Conversely, Davis presents an analysis into the growth of BC First Nations cultures through the dispersion of red cedar. Ultimately, these differing insights provide a deeper understanding of the value of nature and its significance to the cultural identity of Indigenous Peoples.
Most trading posts were lead by European traders, because there was not much of tree land left in Europe, so there was less fur in the area and that lead to trading in Canada. Beaver fur was the most valuable, because it was the best fur for making felt. To trade, groups such as the First Nations and the Inuits, would bring there furs to the trading posts, and trade for there goods. Later a group of men at the trading posts, decided to go look for there own furs, and they were called the coureur de bois. The coureur de bois were french-Canadian’s that traveled through New France and North America.
Huck starts to seriously consider turning Jim in. While he does not believe in slavery, he is deeply disturbed by the idea of Jim stealing his children away from their owner. Despite the paternal bond between Jim and his children, Huck does not believe he should have the right to them, since they are owned by someone else. Huck literally states that he thinks lower of Jim for this, saying, “I was sorry to hear Jim say that, it was such a lowering of him,” (Twain). This is ironic, since Huck’s father was given rights to him purely based on blood but he believes Jim should not be allowed custody of his children based purely off of his social standing.

In ”Resolution and Canadian Iconography: The ’I-Canuck’ Photograph”, Tracy Whalen (2010), an associate professor, argues two things about Canadians. When it comes to ”The Iconic Image”, Canadians lack the resolve to determine what consist an iconic image and to grasp a picture visual resolution (p.446). According to Whalen (2010), the reason Canadians do not have a clear understanding ”of an iconic image goes back to the Canada’s history of citizenship” and because ”iconic images are defined as domestic productions of model citizenship, [which] Canadians have not had a long time develop these (p.454)”. Whalen (2010) continues, when Canadians were asked what is an iconic image, Canadians’ primary thought is often the image of Pierre Elliot Trudeau

In the sixth chapter of Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Mark Twain manipulates the reader’s opinion of racism by using Pap, an antagonist to display his attitude towards the subject. Twain expertly uses the character Pap to explain his viewpoint using circumstance and the structure of his speech to make the idea of racism distasteful, uncomfortable, and even absurd to the reader. Before the initial speech Twain sets up Pap as a horrible father, a chronic alcoholic, and a liar. These qualities followed by Pap’s actions establish a permanent animosity towards the character and what he stands for leading the reader to inherently disagree with everything he says. Twain introuduces Pap at the beginning of chapter 6 by with him attempting to steal

Inequality has been in existence even before the Civil Rights Act was passed in 1964. Slavery has been a result of inequality and even Obama has won office due to inequality. Obama is the first African American president and the majority of African Americans voted for him, which led to his presidential win. Although, Obama has done many wrongdoings like providing Iraq with military grade weapons, but he is still treated fairly by the House of Representatives. If the house had not believed in equality, then Obama would be able to cause The United States to plunder.
