| This was an issue today |
And ... Friday.
Cool.
We read to page 56 in the text after taking up the homework from yesterday.
We got to chat about 11, 12 and 14 from the Unit questions. We also talked a little about the ideas around Pocahontas' ideas about respect. One character offers to marry her and change her name to "Stands with a Short Skirt". ... which we all agreed wasn't a very respectful thing to do.
Anyway, we also saw this clip from the film "Last of the Mohicans", another film that has First Nations actors and characters in it. I have to point out about the fact that a white man wrote the story of these FN characters ... which is what these characters think about themselves.
I also shared my opinion of the awesomeness of this film against the horrible nature of the novel.
and you should check out these guys....
