"Whatever you wanted of me I have obeyed. The Great Father sent me word that whatever he had against me in the past had been forgiven and thrown aside, and I have accepted his promises and came in. And he told me not to step aside from the white man's path, and I am doing my best to travel in that path. I sit here and look around me now, and I see my people starving. We want cattle to butcher. That is the way you live, and we want to live the same way." Sitting Bull, 1883
Sitting Bull's point in this passage is that A) the Great Father told him a fatal lie. B) his people would prefer to be farmers. C) his people are suffering because of the settlers. D) there can be no choice but to violently resist Americans.
@jabez177 @hartnn @ParthKohli @pooja195 @zepdrix @tkhunny @freckles @undeadknight26 @jigglypuff314 @bibby @timo86m @Conqueror @IrishBoy123 Do you guys have any guesses? Im very confused.....
Here's a plan. Never do that again. Show your work. Provide your thoughts. Talk through each point.
@tkhunny I read the passage they provided me with. I read each point and feel that anyone of them could match up because I don't understand even what " And he told me not to step aside from the white man's path, and I am doing my best to travel in that path." means!
Okay, why didn't you provide that information in the first place? Saves a lot of time and effort. A) Maybe B) That's silly. They would hate that. C) Well, yeah, but that's not what he's talking about. D) Where did he say that?
@tkhunny Okay I see how you broke that down easier. Thank you
Do you remember what the answer was?
