Oh, I just checked my email and saw the reminder for the evals. Sorry it's so late! This was a good class, thank you. (:

word. I think the 7th amendment is definitely our strongest point. Let's meet later and expand on that.

Jesse- Actually, the Bill of Rights does prevent the states from the majority of self-governance. What is governing a state if you can't even make up your own rules to protect the people in it? The na ...

I don't know, personally, I disagree with Emily. I actually thought today's debate went a little better than the last one. I thought it was really helpful that we all talked in our groups the night be ...

Wait, whoa.. You posted that like an hour before me on the same day. Surprised

What are the chances of that

HAHAHAHAHA wow. I am so happy I happened to look back on this and see that post. Nice, Pat.

I thought this piece was a little sad. It's just really depressing that those trees and t ...

Okay, so... I'm not sure if I totally understood this. But, if I'm right, the U.S. conducted wars with the Indians in order to move them outside of the park limits. That seems pretty radical... The re ...

I really enjoyed this reading! It was much less factual than most of the readings we've been doing. I thought the part at the end of Holy Water, when the narrator talks about all of the things they wa ...

Oh and to comment on what Emily said- that's totally true. And not only are they given very small amounts of land, but the reserves that they live on today are extremely poor and generally uncared for ...
