<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Forced migration is when you are forced to live in another place against your will. An example of this is the "Trail of Tears". Many indigenous groups, including the Cherokee and Choctaw nations, were forced to relocate from their homelands to designated Indian reservations. <span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS,Helvetica,sans-serif;">**Forced assimilation:** Forced assimilation is when a group's native language and culture are lost to change to those of another group. This term is used both to refer to colonized people when dominant colonial states expand into new territory or when groups of immigrants settle into a dominant state society. An example of forced assimilation is the "Dawes Act of 1887". The Indians were forced to adopt American culture and "excess" Indian land was bought by the government and opened for settlement for non-Indians. Cultural genocide is the deliberate destruction of an ethnic, racial, religious or national group. An example of this is when the 1890 massacre of Sioux at Wounded Knee. The United States military killed more than 150 natives. Manifest destiny is the belief that God gave the Americans the destiny to spread out across the continent. This was used to justify the war with Mexico and acquire portions of Oregon. An example is when John Quincy Adams, a major supporter, changed his mind and refused to accept the Manifest Destiny because it meant that slavery in Texas would expand.

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">Today many good things happened to me that made me happy. I was eating breakfast when my father came running with the news that the ewe that I was **sure** would have twins had started to give birth. As I was running out, my mother came after me, screaming to finish breakfast. My father laughed and said I could never finish it now and told me that he would tend the herd today. At the barn after 3 painful hours, the ewe finally gave birth to two healthy males! I was very proud that I had taken them with my own two hands. As I told my friends about the whole ordeal, I exaggerated a little bit; but it was only a little, I swear. Another good thing that happened is I won in wrestling with my friends! I knocked down every single one of them. I hope tomorrow will be as great as today was. <span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">Kunte Kinte || <span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">I'm back from manhood training! As soon as we marched in, everybody started playing instruments, dancing, and singing. It felt good, to be acknowledged as an adult and as a man. It was like they respected me now! While I was looking around my hut, my grandmother came and scolded me. I had never thought that anyone would miss me and cry while I was gone. I admit, I was a bit harsh to my mother. But still, I am a **man**. How can she, a lowly woman, tell a man what to do. How dare she order me to thank my father. Does she not think that I would, without her ordering me? Now I have to go make my brother a drum to make my mother happy. <span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">Kunte Kinte || <span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">Slater || <span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">Davies ||

 * <span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">Mr. Slater || <span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">Aug. 1767 || <span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">4. The ship is all ready for those black dogs to come in. The captain is a very innocent man. He insists on laying the slaves down comfortably. If I was the captain, I would lay them facing each other to fit more cannibals in. Of course, then they would eat each other, which is a problem. Slaves are stupid but strong; no wonder people give good money for them. The girls are good, too. Good for bed warming, eh? Hopefully we will reach their land and recruit them quickly. Better sooner than later to save them from their heathen Allah.

I regret coming on this voyage. Many times I look back and wonder, why did I take this on? Had I really been that naive? Had I really thought that we would have treated them like humans, not animals? Whatever Mr. Slater says, I still believe that these Africans are not cannibals. But I feel like I am becoming a monster myself. This voyage is costing me a lot of things, including my beliefs. I completely hate myself. I thought I did not believe in fornication; I was wrong. I have betrayed my dear wife and slept with an African slave. Oh, I deserve to die. The only comfort I have on this ship is alcohol. I despise myself. Oh God, help me!

=**__<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">Your World - Assignment 2 (Timeline Reflection) __**= <span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">One thing that I found interesting while doing this project was that I didn’t have a lot of huge incidents in my life that I can remember clearly. When I tried to think back on the events in my life, there weren’t a lot that impacted me so much that it just popped into my mind. As I thought about it, my life seemed pretty boring. Also, I didn’t know that so many events in the world happened in just one year. While choosing world events during my life, I had a hard time because there were so many events!
 * **<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">Explain one thing that you found most interesting or surprising while doing this project? **

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">One thing that I think I did well in this project is the neatness because my poster was very neat and I colored the map very nicely. My handwriting was also very clean, and I drew a very good compass rose. The only big mistake I made was the M for my name on the poster.
 * **<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">Explain one thing you think you did well in this project? **

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">One thing that I think I need to improve if I were to do another project like this is that I could’ve put pictures on my timeline to make it more interesting and write the events of my life more spaced out so that it would be easy to see which event happened in which year by writing some farther away and dragging an arrow from the year to the event.
 * **<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">Explain one thing you think you need to improve if you were to do another project like this? **

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">Two life skills I think I practiced during this project are time management and communication. I practiced time management by organizing my time wisely so that I could do a little at a time and still finish by the due date. I practiced communication because I communicated to the people who are going to look at my poster about my life.
 * **<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">Name at least two life skills you think you practiced during this project. How did you practice these life skills during this project? Be specific. **
