Choose ONE of the following assignments and post on your blog. Use the texts we have read in class and the information in the PowerPoint lesson to inform your responses.

  1. Write a letter to one of the writers we read in class agreeing or disagreeing with her/his arguments. Use examples from our world to support your opinion.
  2. Using Sitting Bull’s poem as model, write a poem responding to the ideas and themes in this unit. Your poem should convey insight into your stance towards issues of Americanism, identity, race, myths, and/or cultural values.
