**Slide 4:** **Notes: Describe what conflicts you think would arise if settlers moved into this land.** Due to a conflict in perspectives over the purpose of land, with Settlers believing that Land was something to be conquered and transformed for their own use, while the Natives believed that the Land was not to be destroyed but rather respected since they believed that the land wasn’t inherited from previous generations but rather borrowed from future posterity. Due to this drastic vary in views, violence is imminent, with Settlers using brute force to drive the Natives out of their land.

**Slide 5:** **Notes: How do you think the painting "American Progress" by John Gast tells the story of what happened when the settlers moved into the Great Plains?** American Progress depicts an Angel of some sort, guiding settlers west ward, stringing telephone lines as she goes. This depicts the idea of technology and settlement progressing westward, while she drives Natives out of their lands.

**Slide 7:** **Notes: Write at least one way in which Native Americans and settlers viewed the land differently.** Native Americans felt as though they could not violate the land, and that they must respect it. They considered the land to be part of their family, and that they in no way owned this land, and were able to use it’s bountiful resources only if they made sure they didn’t deplete them by respecting the land and being nomadic in their habits. Settlers felt as though that the land was to be conquered and transformed, yielding it to eventually be completely rid of it’s resources, and should this occur, settlers then moved westward with destruction.

**Conflict Over Western Lands** **Final Assignment:**

__Essay Topic #1__

Here I stand, upon land that has been here for thousands of years before I was alive. The land has spirit, it is alive and well, it is as much a part of our Tribe is as myself. We respect the land for what it sustains, and we treat it well. We move, from place to place, but we aren’t nomadic. We know where we’re going. We know every blade of grass that grows, and we use it sparingly. However, Settlers are at bay, slowly encroaching on our land, destroying it for their own needs. And once they’ve destroyed an area of land, they move to another, taking their destruction with them.
