Essays on Buffalo

Sherman Alexie’s poem “Evolution” is a scathing indictment of the white European settlement of the Americas, and the subsequent subjugation of the Native American people. By spinning the tale of white conquest over the Natives, and the economic dependence the Natives were forced to have on whites after that, into a fable involving famed Western icon Buffalo Bill, Alexie satirically points out the hypocrisy by which the white Western narrative makes a fable out of the removal of Native peoples and culture from their own hands. The poem begins with the establishment of Buffalo Bill, who “opens a ...

The issue of privacy is important and is even protected by the constitution. The government doesn't have any right to curtail or interfere with an individual’s privacy, unless in exceptional circumstances when the privacy has information relating to national security (Cate & H, F. 818). The primary objective of the government is the protection of its citizens even when at times unconventional methods have to be applied. The privacy of an individual doesn’t hold water when matters of national security come into play. The technological world has made tremendous developments and the technology of encryption is being applied ...

Post U.S. – Mexican War through 1870s

After the Civil War, the situation in the United States was chaotic, as the time for radical changes had come. The goal of the Reconstruction (1865 – 1877) was to restore the society, although, it was a great challenge. First of all, the war ended with a significant human loss – “over 600,000 people” died during the Civil War (YouTube). Secondly, the largest slavery system was still present, and it was extremely difficult to put an end to the division of race, as the blacks were still considered to be slaves and the majority ...

Management of Bisons

Background

Wild animals play a significant role in any economy, since they boost the tourism industry and bring foreign exchange. One such animal that has caused uproar in the history of America is the Yellowstone buffalo, commonly known as bison. Despite its financial value, it has been attributed to be a key agent for the spread of brucellosis, a dangerous disease that affects the production and performance of cattle. Some of the effects of this disease on cattle include infertility, proneness to abortions and poor milk production. This has divided opinions among the stakeholders involved, depending on ...

Introduction

The growing shortages in food supplies, rapid climate change and increasing awareness of environment stewardship has all made eco farms an increasingly viable option. By reversing environmental deterioration, supporting local communities and balancing out community-ecosystem-market relations ("Solution: an eco-farming revolution," n.d.), eco farms are gradually replacing conventional forms of agricultural production, particularly as factory agri-products are becoming subject to mounting pressure not only from environmental groups but also from consumers growing more disillusioned by a combination of unhealthy products, price hikes and environmental damage. True, biotech industry appears to inform adoption of GM foods for international expansion and profit ...

Jim’s Wings located in the center of Fort Collins, Colorado is possibly the best wing place ever.

Jim’s Wings opened in 1991 and has been Fort Collins’ favorite for wings, side things, green things, things with buns, and buffalo things ever since (Jim’s Wings Website Home Page). Another aspect that Jim’s Wings prides itself on is the family friendly dining environment that ...

Acquiring some new opportunities rarely does not go hand-in-hand with the risk of losing something. The reality is such that, having considerably augmented in the field of technology, the people of today ought to give something in return for the new things they have obtained. In the information age, when many things hitherto inaccessible have become just a click away, it is equally true that people gain something and lose something. It especially concerns privacy. Therefore, in the digital age, loss of a certain amount of privacy is inevitable. Arguably, the main factor that has contributed to the certain ...

BOOK REVIEW: HUNTERS AT THE MARGIN

Hunters at the Margin: Native People and Wildlife Conservation in the Northwest Territories by John Sandlos open my eyes to what conservation means to developers. I never will take for granted again that conservations are not wolves in sheep’s clothing. While reading the book I wanted the hunters to win so they would survive because the officials of parks and other government pieces of land were wearing the black hats. Government officials are definitely the bad guys forcing the natives to go without food in the 1950s (xvi) when food was hard to find without going on government ...

The years before and after the Civil war were marked all across the United States with a strongly rooted racism that was affecting not only African Americans but Indian and Chinese citizens as well.

The evidences suggest that there were not so many Chinese populations but the strong racial politics was lead against them resulting in their death and prosecution.

Part A – Question 3

Given what we now know about the religious and intellectual foundations of colonialism, what might be some of the characteristics of ‘post-colonial’ thought and do you think that we are there yet? When thinking about post-colonial thought, it is absolutely necessary that we understand the various attributes of colonial thought in the first place. Colonial thought is best represented by figures like Jean-Jacques Rousseau, who wrote about “The Noble Savage,” and created these inherent intellectual foundations for colonialism (Rousseau 20). These perspectives, in which peoples from less developed and Westernized civilizations were patronizingly referred to as ‘noble,’ while ...

Musical Theater and Musical shows have been around for centuries. In the beginning, a musical show was the “integration of narrative, song, and dance characteristics” that “glorified beautiful women and surrounded them with comedian, singers, and dancers” (Reynolds and McCormik). From the early 1900 to 1930’s, the theater supporter was charmed by Minstrel shows, Variety Shows, and Follies which led to musicals with dramatic action. As the theater progressed, dance numbers became more a part of the entire show. Over the next 30-40 years Broadway Musicals would hit their highs and lows, but it was all too evident that the ...

The original cowboys were all white. Meaning, they were all Caucasians. However, long before they came into being, there were already other cowboys on the making. This was in Texas where a group of slaves worked in ranches. The period was the early nineteenth century. As was discussed above, cowboys mainly gained prominence in the late nineteenth century. Black slaves were mainly born into slavery, but they later gained a life away from slavery in the ranches. This is where the thesis of this paper is deduced. Black men became cowboys so as to avoid the discrimination and shame associated with ...
