Module 7 Short Responses – 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.
I would apply the military, religious, and cultural lenses to gain a fuller picture of the
relationship between Natives and white 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.
There were several causes for conflict between the Natives and white settlers. There were
disputes over land, political battles, and cultural differences.
Module 7 Short Responses – Question 3
Name three historical lenses that you could use to look at the events described in the
video you just saw.
I would use the social, political, and religious lenses.
Module 7 Short Responses – Question 4
Massasoit's decision to approach the Pilgrims about an alliance was contingent on what
previous event or events? (Name one or two.)
Massasoit's approached the Pilgrims about an alliance because his tribe had been killed off by
a disease of European origin, and he was being threatened by the Narragansett people.
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.
The defense alliance treaty between Pilgrims and Wampanoag was a short-term consequence
of the alliance between the Wampanoag and the Pilgrims. A long-term consequence was more
Englishmen arriving in New England and tipping the power in favor of the English.
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 thought the idea behind President Roosevelt's New Deal was to get money into the economy
and people's pockets. However, it turns out he raised taxes on all kinds of products, including
gasoline and cotton. It seems strange to me because people were already in poverty and I
don't see how tax hikes help.
Module 7 Short Responses – Question 7
Name four historical lenses through which you could analyze the events of the Cherokee
Removal. Specify one aspect of this event for each lens that you cite.
Social, military, economic, political
The economic lens because of the value of the land, which prompted the removal of the
Natives.
The military lens because the military intervened when the Cherokees didn't move and the
Natives were eventually put in internment camps.
The social lens because of their interactions with white settlers.
The political lens because the Treaty of Echota essentially forced the Cherokees to move
westward.
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 above statement. One reason is John Ross denounced the Treaty of New
Echota and the Cherokee National Council declared it a fraud, but the U.S. Senate ratified it
in 1836 by a single vote. My second fact is the original treaty also contained a clause that
would have allowed individual Cherokee to remain east of the Mississippi and become
American citizens if they gave up claims to their land, but President Jackson rejected that
provision. Third, General Winfield Scott decided the forced removal was too violent and
placed the remaining Cherokee in internment camps.
