In the late 1600’s, many European settlers arrived in North America in hopes of escaping the hardships they faced back home. America initially promised colonists the wealth, religious freedom, and escape from oppression they desired. New England was home to dense forests, and hills which was not optimal for crop growth. Therefore, the colonists directed their attention towards trade and commerce. The people in this region were devoutly religious and believed in the education of children.
An ethical issue related to medical care is pain management and the inappropriate judgment of patients being labeled as “Drug Seeking”.

However, at what point does the nurse or provider get to decide what is an adequate pain threshold and how much they should endure? When does the ethical duty to relieve pain and suffering subside to personal biases?
While I was reading chapter two I wasn't surprised with how the whites were treating the Native Americans I was just shocked with what they did to them. First they were told which half of the bay to live in. The whites wanted the area that was farmable to be for them while the Native Americans lives in the swaps, but that didn't seem to stop the whites for eventually wanting that land too. The whites would steal the land from the Native Americans because they would just happen to forget to write who the land belonged to down. This happened more on purpose so that the whites could get more of the land.
Jacob Reich Midterm 1. Middle Ground Middle Ground is a type of relationship between two culturally different kinds of people. The idea of middle ground can be applied in various times throughout history, but it is generally focused on the relationship between the Native Americans and European settlers. The best way to describe middle ground in an equal and positive sharing system between two groups of people. This sharing can be of things such as goods and services, or even just knowledge.
Throughout the late 1400’s and the 1500’s, the world experienced many changes due to the discoveries of new lands and peoples that had been never been visited before. The new-found lands of the Americas and exploration of Africa by the Europeans led to new colonies and discoveries in both areas. It also brought different societies and cultures together that had never before communicated, causing conflict in many of these places. While the Europeans treated both the Native Americans and West Africans as inferior people, the early effects they had on the Native Americans were much worse. Beginning in the late 1400’s, many different European explorers started to look for new trade routes in the Eastern Hemisphere in order to gain economic and religious power.
During King William’s War in 1689 to 1697, the French and their Native American allies attacked isolated settlements in New England. The French explorers first interacted with Native Americans in the 15th century and were different from the British in their relationship with Native Americans. They often lived among them and adopted many of their ways of life including, learning their native languages, marrying the Natives, trading furs for weapons, and help to mediate the allied tribes and other tribes that offered protection from the Iroquois. The hostilities between the French and English continued on to form Queen Anne’s War (also called The War of Spanish Succession) in 1702. As the French and their allies attacked Massachusetts and South
In 1968 did the iconic podium stand cause others after Tommie Smith and John Carlos to join by their side to fight and protest or was there a big uproar in negative actions?

Our nation’s history is very much entwined with the American Indian. When Europeans first came to the Americas, the Indian population was quite large. For a time, Americans and Indians coexisted but as more and more white people came, the Indians were pushed farther westward. The early Americans wanted more land and the Indians were to them, simply in the way. Relations between the Americans and Indians at the time of the Revolutionary war are indecisive.
When the Europeans began colonizing the New World, they had a problematic relationship with the Native Americans. The Europeans sought to control a land that the Natives inhabited all their lives. They came and decided to take whatever they wanted regardless of how it affected the Native Americans. They legislated several laws, such as the Indian Removal Act, to establish their authority. The Indian Removal Act had a negative impact on the Native Americans because they were driven away from their ancestral homes, forced to adopt a different lifestyle, and their journey westwards caused the deaths of many Native Americans.

Europeans began exploring the Americas in late 15th century. This had many effects on both the land of the Americas and the Native Americans that inhabited them. Many of the Native American cultures perished with the coming if the Europeans while some survived. A good deal of the Native American cultures that did survive, were very small. The Europeans did not mean to find the Americas, in fact, they were on a voyage to find a new route to Asia and The Indies.
Promises are meant to be kept, but more than often promises lead to broken promises. Promises made to the Indians that their land would be forever theirs, became a broken promise. White settlers were starting to move toward the west beyond the Mississippi. The Indians’ lives were about to change due to new lives moving and the rise of Gold, Silver and the railroad. State government, settlers, pressured the federal government to take Indian land for their own beneficial use and more than one hundred thousand Indians from the Southwest were forced off their land and moved to reservations west of the Mississippi River.

They were here way before Christopher Columbus and the other European Colonists even discovered America and they are still present in the U.S.
“ They espied five or six persons with a dog coming towards them, who were savages; but they fled from them and ran up into the woods(Bradford 9).” The Europeans and the Natives at first didn 't really know what to think of each at first but, the Europeans threatened the Native Americans way of life. “Once they stole away their tools where they had been at work and were gone at dinner(Bradford 16).” The Native Americans had never seen the tools or guns of the Europeans, the new technology shocked them and would change their lives.
