# data[].attributes.body
I learned throughout this lesson how uneducated I was about Native American culture. I learned their cultural values and how differently they viewed things compared to how I viewed them. Lastly, I learned that Native Americans don’t get the recognition they deserve and how unappreciated they are in the world because of how normalized a racial term is.

# data[].attributes.body
I learned that some natives believe that the world was created by animals. I also learned that in Native American communities headdresses are earned and not just given out.

# data[].attributes.body
I learned Native Americans believe land should not be owned by a person, it should be shared.

# data[].attributes.body
I learned that in the Native American Community there are several misconceptions about their culture. People assume things about them that are far from true. The way other people 'appreciate' their culture is disrespectful because they avoid the true value behind these traditions

# data[].attributes.body
I learned that animals are respected by the Native Americans.

# data[].attributes.body
Before beginning this unit I wasn't very educated on the meaning behind various forms of cultural expression that Native Americans exercise, such as things they wear or activities they do. A case in point, I used to think that feathers and tribal patterns were just cool accessories, when in reality they act as symbols of a particular status.

# data[].attributes.body
I learned Native American children were stolen away from parents, then forced into indentured servitude.

# data[].attributes.body
I now know more about their culture and their values. For example their community highly respects and values nature. And how they use it a lot in their stories.

# data[].attributes.body
My ideas have not shifted, however I learned that Native Americans still fight to this day for their culture and land. Such as, fighting for land, appropriation, prejudice, etc. Native American culture is far beyond old traditions and past experiences but also coincides with the connotation Native Americans have today and the fight to keep the culture and history alive. Additionally, not many Native Americans view topics the same, like everybody they have their own thoughts and feelings, and do generalize Native Americans feelings can be absurd. Such as the Washington Redskins' topic, many saw it as appropriation however some were okay with the term and saw it as appreciation. Finally, it challenged me to try to get in touch with my own culture seeing that the youth of Native Americans know their culture, know the struggles to this day and know the stereotypes and debunking them for their own identity

# data[].attributes.body

I have learned exactly how much variety there is in the different Native American tribes. You could have someone who is young and integrated with the modern community, or you could have a traditionalist who tells stories from centuries ago. I have also learned just how ignorant we have become. We act like all of these existing tribes are dead. They are alive, maybe not thriving, but here and trying to use their voices on deaf ears. It is hard to know what is "right" and "wrong" when it comes to other cultures and I would love to discover more about these unique tribes.

# data[].attributes.body
Native America used to rule the land. When Europeans (English and Spanish) came, they persecuted the Natives because they felt like it was their land which God created for them, and they believed the Natives to be savages. Many native tribes and cities were destroyed so Europeans tried to built their cities and empires. Many Natives fought back to protect their tribes, culture, beliefs, traditions, and land but those who lost became slaves or forced to move or were slaughtered. Americas were built on the stolen land from the Natives who helped the colonists built their colonies and survive. Like all countries, America was built off the bones of the Natives and their stories forgotten and lost because they were slaughtered before they could even record or tell them to the survivors of their tribes.

So far my current knowledge of Native Americans is that they are very strong and diligent people today, consistently fighting for their land and their culture. I know that spiritually they are very connected to their ancestors and spirits part of the land, and they have a lot of practices and rituals which influences a lot of spiritual people today. I do know that many of the history we do learn is very Americanized and majority of the true history is washed away from history books. Which oppresses Native American today.
