In the nineteenth century, the United States government removed a number of Natives to federally owned and designated Indian reservations, this was called migrating or relocating. Under the 1830 Indian Removal Act, the US relocated the people of the Five Civilized Tribes east of the Mississippi River, to Indian territories. Soon cultural assimilation took place, and the Natives were forced to transform and adapt to the European or American culture between the years of 1790 and 1920. George Washington and Henry Knox were the first to formulate a policy to encourage the "civilizing" process. Cultural genocide was the deliberate extermination of a nation, such as the 1890 massacre of Sioux at Wounded Knee by the United States military. Manifest destiny was the belief held in the 19th century, that is was the destiny of U.S to expand it's territory over the whole North America and to extend it's political, social and economical influences. t was used by Democrats in the 1840s to justify the war with Mexico

I have done things that I am so very ashamed of but the Wrester says I am a warrior and I believe him. The Wrestler has a plan to free us and fight the white men. I trust the Wrestler. He is the only one I know here. Except Fanta of course. When she first came she had so much hope. She thought her father would come for her. But these horrible white men killed him. I did notice something interesting today, a man next to me had stopped breathing. The white men immediately unchained him and took him above us. I do not know what they did with him but that men never returned. What if they threw him into the water? It is so hot in here. We lie on our backs for hours and days. It smells so bad. The smell of filth, and vomit hangs in the air. I just wish I could run in the green fields near our house. I also have nightmares. Few days ago I dreamt of a white bird that ate me. It was like the bird were the white men. It was horrible. I do not know if I want to live any longer. The things I have seen and done are horrible. All I can do is pray. Allah will save us. He will. || I have to say that I am a little worried about how many "monkeys" we can collect once we reach Africa. They might change the prices and there is also a lot of competition with other companies. I do believe we can collect all 170 and come back home safely. But I do not really have a home, now do I? I don't have a wife or a family. Sometimes I do get awfully lonely. || I should have never taken this job. I wish more then anything to be with my children and you back at home. I have seen such horrible things that will stay with me for the rest of my life. I do not believe in the good of the world anymore. When I see the slaves I am so saddened. The way Mr. Slater, my first mate treats the slaves is disgusting. My wife, I must tell you something. I have sinned. I have done something horrible. Last night I was writing to you when Mr. Slater came in with a young wench. I was about to go to sleep therefore I did not have my wig on. Mr. Slater just left the girl with me. He just said I needed belly warming. At first I didn't know what to do with her. She seemed so terrified of me. Like I was a monster. I am so sorry my wife, but I have betrayed you. I have fornicated with a girl who was the age of our daughter. I no longer believe that I am Christian. I have sinned, and given into lust. This voyage has changed me. I do not believe I will ever be the same. When I looked into the eyes of the slaves I could tell they were cursing me. They wanted me dead. They hated me. I have never seen such hatred. Please forgive me my wife, for what I have done. || My World Assignment Two
 * = **Who** ||= **Date** || **Diary Entry** ||
 * = Kunte Kinte ||= May 1763 || 1. Today was like any other day. I woke up before sunrise. I went out side to meet my friends but mother called me back in for breakfast. After forcing my self to swallow a few bites I grabbed my slingshot and ran outside. While my friend and I were taking a break and talking about manhood under a tree and cheetah jumped out of no where and sunk it's teeth into the she-goat. The goat was about to have babies! I chased off the cheetah with my sling shot. Then with my head hung low I took the skin of the she-goat to my father. He seemed very disappointed in me. But he had made the same mistake around my age so I didn't feel as bad. When he was young a lion attacked him and now he has a scar. I realize that I shouldn't have attacked the cheetah with only one sling shot. It could have easily come to attack me. I went home to help my mother with dinner. I took a few vegetables from the garden and gave them to my mother to cook. I cleaned myself off. When we sat down for the meal we all ate in silence. I assume my father was mad at me for what I had done to the goat. I was trying to fall asleep when I couldn't help but think of the conversation my friend and I had about man hood. I think I am ready for the training. But frankly, I am scared. I feel so disappointed in myself. If I cannot protect a she-goat from one cheetah then how will I ever be ready for manhood training? ||
 * = Kunte Kinte ||= Dec. 1767 || 3. It has been a month on this giant canoe. I just want to jump off of the canoe and swim as far as I can till I die. We cannot see any land. The Earth has disappeared My stomach has come up so many times that I have lost count. They feed us food of the white men that does not settle in my stomach. Once in a while they take us above the giant canoe to give us "showers". It hurts so bad to get sea water in our wounds. They force us to dance and jump like we are dolls that they control.
 * = Mr. Slater ||= Aug. 1767 || 4. I can proudly say that we are very prepared for our next journey. We are now on our way to Africa. Everything is going as usual. I have taken this voyage so many times that now nothing seems different. The crewmen seem prepared and ready. We will be boarding 170 blacks onto this ship. I do question the Captain though. He seems a little odd to me. I have taken this voyage several times and usually the Captain of the ship and I see eye to eye. Davies seems like he is not prepared for this journey. He questions the way we do things and how we treat the slaves. I see that he is not sure about the trip. I assume that he is just a little nervous because this is his first time leading a slave ship. I do think he will adapt well to our ways of doing things very soon.
 * = Capt. Davies ||= Dec. 1767 || 5. My dear wife,
 * = **Sample****(Kadi Touray)** ||= Aug. 1765 || My family and I are still on our way to Kerewan but I'm not sure how much farther we still have to go. Luckily, we accidentally met a local villager named Kunte Kinte who told me that it's one day to Kerewan. The interesting thing is how we met this young man. He knocked Fanta over and spilled our water and knocked over our millet as he was chasing a bird for his manhood training. He obviously needs to learn to run faster because I easily caught up to him and dragged him back to apologize to Fanta for knocking her over. After he clumsily put our stuff back, he bid us farewell and took off again after his bird. I did notice that Fanta gave our visitor a strange look. Perhaps she has been struck by the love arrow. If we do meet Kunte Kinte again, I will make sure he is the right man for my beloved daughter. ||

> While doing this project I learn't that when I was younger, my family and I visited a number of places all around the world. > This was surprising because now a days, we tend to stay between Dhaka and Washington D.C. > > I think I did a good job of tracking where I have been in my life and applying it to the map. > > One thing I could defiantly improve the next time I do a project like this is first be sure of what I am writing. > I tend to write it in pen and make a mistake. I did this on my timeline and I had to flip the page over. Next time I should think before I write and first use pencil. > > Two life skills I have developed are Using Numbers and Data and time management. I had to apply what I already knew about Numbers and Data to my map. And I also had to manage my time so I got all my work done and good do everything efficiently.
