1. listen to the following radio broadcast (Think broadcast) that addresses many of the issues of contact and conquest we are discussing and address the related questions.
2. Read the various local news coverage of the Alamo and the burial grounds and address the related questions.
3. My overall goal is for you to reflect on how the past has shaped our understanding of our current time and to reflect on your own viewpoint of how you view the history of contact and conquest in the Americas of New World. It is important to reflect on the narrative and how this even affects your viewpoint; words such as New World, The Americas, Natives, Indians, Colonizers, Conquistadors, murders, infectious disease, conquest, contact, all affect how we interpret the history and how we view what happened as well as how we view the issues in our time.
