In 1973, Mary Hill of the Muskogee Indian Nation told an interviewer some of the stories her grandmother Sallie Farney had told

her about the Trail of Tears. Read the given excerpt from the interview.
The command for a removal came unexpectedly upon most of us…Wagons stopped at our home and the men in charge commanded us to gather what few belongings could be crowded into the wagons. We were to be taken away and leave our homes never to return.

Many fell by the wayside, too faint with hunger or too weak to keep up with the rest. The aged, feeble, and sick were left to perish by the wayside…

The little children piteously cried day after day from weariness, hunger, and illness. Many of the men, women, and even the children were forced to walk…Death stalked at all hours, but there was no time for proper burying of ceremonies… There were several men carrying reeds with eagle feathers attached to the end. These men continually circled around the wagon trains or during the night around the camps. These men said the reeds with feathers had been treated by the medicine men. Their purpose was to encourage the Indians not to be heavy hearted nor to think of the homes that had been left. Some of the older women sang songs that meant, "We are going to our homes and land; there is One who is above and ever watches over us; He will care for us." This song was to encourage the ever downhearted Muskogees.

Based on the excerpt, what are the two ways the Muskogee tried to help the people of their tribe remain positive during their journey?

Answer:

Explanation:

1) By circling the wagon Trains at night holding Treated Feathers to remind the Natives that perhaps they should not think of the homes they left behind, but rather hope that what they were heading towards would be better. The feathers had the added property that they were treated by the Medicine Man.

2) The older wise women sang songs that resembled hymns to encourage those on the trail that the One above them would be watch over them.

Answer:

Desertification is the process by which fertile land becomes desert.

Due to desertification, the soil becomes unsuitable for agriculture which results in a huge loss of food. As a result of vegetation removal, the climate changes and affects the overall environment. Due to the absence of vegetation on the land, there is no moisture in the soil to evaporate and form clouds that cause rainfall. And with less or no rainfall, it may result in more desertification.

Deforestation also increases the rate of soil erosion which happens through increased rainfall, runoff, and reduced ground debris.

How does the cause-and-effect structure support Tuchman’s viewpoint that the new illusion of omnipotence must also be shattered?
LUCKY_DIMON [66]
It shows that the war resulted in a new illusion of omnipotence."In April 1917 the illusion of isolation was destroyed, America came to the end of innocence, and of the exuberant freedom of bachelor independence. That the responsibilities of world power have not made us happier is no surprise. To help ourselves manage them, we have replaced the illusion of isolation with a new illusion of omnipotence" Barbara Tuchman
