Question 1 Name three historical lenses that you could apply to gain a fuller picture of the relationship between Natives and white settlers. Be sure to respond to this question in no more than one sentence, using proper grammar.
To truly grasp a subject, it is helpful to explore various historical perspectives during research. By examining social, economic, and cultural aspects, we can gain a deeper comprehension of the relationships between Native Americans and European settlers. Module 7 Short Responses –
Question 2 Revise the thesis statement at the top of this page to reflect a more complex view of the relationship between Natives and white settlers. Your revised thesis statement should be longer than one sentence.
In the early 19th century, there were various complex reasons for the tensions between Native people and white settlers, extending beyond mere disagreements concerning land ownership. Module 7 Short Responses –

Question 5 Name one short-term consequence and one long-term consequence of the alliance between the Wampanoag and the Pilgrims.
One short-term consequence of the alliance between the Wampanoag and the Pilgrims was improved mutual defense against common threats, fostering a period of relative peace and cooperation. One long-term effect of European settlers' increased presence in the area was the gradual loss of Wampanoag sovereignty and their eventual abandonment of ancestral lands. Module 7 Short Responses –
Question 6 How has your understanding of the historical event in your essay changed as a result of your research? Describe one instance of a misconception or a wrong idea you had about your topic that has been corrected after researching and writing about it.
I have learned more about the many views on gender equality, the historical political situation, and the justifications for and against the ERA. Misconception: Many people wrongly believe that the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) was quickly and unanimously supported by all states. Correction: Research indicates that the Equal Rights Amendment was strongly opposed and did not pass into the United States Constitution. It is possible to clarify the common belief that support for the ERA was widespread by knowing the ins and outs of state-level talks, politics, and opposition. Module 7 Short Responses –
Question 8 Agree or disagree with the following thesis statement: "The Treaty of New Echota was invalid, and the National Party was correct to oppose it." Cite at least three historical facts that support your position.
I agree with the thesis statement that "The Treaty of New Echota was invalid, and the National Party was correct to oppose it. Absence of a unified agreement among the Cherokee: The Treaty of New Echota was negotiated and signed by a small group of Cherokees. Most Cherokees, led by Chief John Ross, did not agree with the treaty. They thought it didn't represent the desires of the Cherokee people.
3 Violations of Sovereignty and Treaties: The treaty violated previous legal precedents like the Treaty of Hopewell and the Supreme Court decision in Worcester v. Georgia. The U.S. government's enforcement of the Treaty of New Echota ignored Cherokee sovereignty and existing treaties, which raised concerns about its validity. Humanitarian Consequences: The Trail of Tears caused the death of many Cherokee people. The National Party opposed it because they knew it would cause suffering, loss of life, and cultural change.
