reading and answering questions

Q1 Based on your reading of Richter’s Chapter 6, describe in detail how race came to be a defining element of American identity. For full credit, be sure to address Pontiac, Ohio Country, the Paxton Boys, and President Andrew Jackson. Q2 In the Epilogue, Richter explains that Native peoples were an integral part of the formation of the United States, but that the narrative of American identity required the removal of that reality. He offers a number of examples of “appropriation” – ways in which Native history was taken and used by White Americans. Choose at least two examples of this from the text to describe and explain, and then include at least one contemporary example of this “appropriation” in current American culture Q3 Based on the mini-lectures, who was Buffalo Bill?
