The new generation was not as respectful to the Indians. The new leaders did not really care about keeping peace as much as the original Pilgrims. The Indians became less valued and the only thing the Englishmen wanted out of them was their land. The tension began when Alexander died and Philip believed the "murder" was at the hands of Winslow. Both the Pilgrims and the Indians should have been more respectful and understanding to one another but, because of their differences it was difficult. Although, the original Pilgrims managed to maintain peace so it definitely was not impossible. ]]> 2017-09-07 22:26:08 UTC https://padlet.com/bratja01/wc8bu7kq486h/wish/185715922
