Assimilation or Resistance



1) I choose Resistance, for the most beneficial for the tribes to pursue, the reason i chose resistance is because their not just giving up their land that's really important to them obviously, their fighting for it.

 Economic Reason: They keep the land to their own way of life, they know how to use their land and know where everything thing is located, also they've been farming on that land for several years now.

Social Reason: They can stay with their original religion and not convert their lifestyles they way the Americans want them to. Or change the traditions they do, like having long hair is a big tradition to them.

Political Reason: The tribes stay the same, the chief still makes all the decisions just like they've done before, and women are treated equally.


2) I choose Assimilation, for the lest beneficial for the tribes to pursue, the reason i chose assimilation is because it's like the tribe gives up all there land easily.

Economic Reason: They have to start over, learn a new culture.

Social Reason: They have to change their religion, become Christians just like the Americans. And forget all about their traditions because there not allowed to do that stuff.

Political Reason: The Americans (president) makes the decisions for the tribes and every one else, also the women don't have equal opportunities as the men.
