Document Summary
Justifiable because early canada is a "middle ground" unitl 1815. Everybody has their agenda: trade and wealthy" conquest and power: conversation and salvation. But in many different places, no one nation can overpower other dictate terms. Forts can be places of martial power but that power may not extend beyond sound of a gunshot. So there"s a lot of violence also a lot os persuasion. There was indigenous groups who were more powerful. Indigenous oral histories are stories told within a community. Difficult questions of warrant and appropriation that non-indigenous scholars aren"t well situated to address. How to tell whether you are looking at a "white man"s indian" We will look at lahontan"s voyages, volume 2. Debate between adrio and lahontan on the subject of nakedness. Published at the hague because that was protestant and he wouldn"t be arrested. Lahonton says women don"t expose themselves but indigenous women do . (really confusing)
