"Away from my family, I didn't only lost the right to live near my loved ones, I lost my right to live as myself.

They want to choose where we can live, putting us into their " land reserves"; Now they want us to live like they do, trying to kill our identity, trying to take away the special knowledge our culture has nourished for so many years, that is within our language, our appearance , our names and our faith.

I might say to them that part of being a "civilized human being" is for the rational thinking of our own cultural values, and it's proper assimilation and possibly cultural exchange , rather than a subversion of another culture. Through harsh and violent ways they try to impose in us a moral quality they don't have. This way we might think who's the closest from being a savage.

No longer we can abide to be diminished as human beings or ever let them touch our culture through the suffering of our people, our children."

This could be a example of a letter from and Indian sent to a boarding school during the 19th and 20th century in the U.S. It is already known that there were various abuses along with the trial of assimilation of the European-American culture on the Indians; It could be made, instead a cultural exchange, if the whites at the time didn't think their culture as superior and civilized.

How and why did the colonists sense of a collective british identity change?

murzikaleks [220]

It was by their independence in 1776 and they had a policy of mercantilism and a high degree of autonomy and they resisted to the demands of London for a greater control. The Seven Years War left the three European kingdoms (Britain, France, and Spain) in bankruptcy and thanks to the thought developed in the century of the lights would provoke in them a feeling of independence. Each of these colonies developed its own system of government, and, they voted in favor of its local government. In this way, they had a collective change of identity.

Describe how Black Codes were used to restrict the rights of newly freed African Americans.

Keith_Richards [23]

Black codes were restrictive laws designed to limit the freedom of African Americans and ensure their availability as a cheap labor force after slavery was abolished during the Civil War. Under black codes, many states required Black people to sign yearly labor contracts; if they refused, they risked being arrested, fined and forced into unpaid labor.
Even as former enslaved people fought to assert their independence and gain economic autonomy during the earliest years of Reconstruction. While the codes granted certain freedoms to African Americans—including the right to buy and own property, marry, make contracts and testify in court (only in cases involving people of their own race)—their primary purpose was to restrict Black peoples’ labor and activity. Black people who broke labor contracts were subject to arrest, beating and forced labor, and apprenticeship laws forced many minors into unpaid labor for white planters.
