A Friend Wants To Know - Jaden 0666244

Hi, this is jaden flowers and this is a friend

wants to know presentation.

So I want to go over the basics first and

that is the five social forces which is the the

five things were mostly focusing on for this course and

the five are re traditional Ization, urbanization, identity, re imagination,

self governance and textual transformation.

So the one aspect I actually chose was protest because

I felt it was like more relatable to like modern

modern society, especially around now because there's a lot of

protesting going on and fighting for what you think is

right. And protesting is the act or statement of expressing

what new or collective of people agree is the right

idea and it's a way to fight for what's right

and to convey a message to a higher power for

change. Next is the cause.

So the issue of some incidents that we actually looked

at during this course was okay, a standoff and one

from a real life experience was the Canadian pipeline railway

protest. So what happened during these?

So, during the OKA standoff?

Was in Oka Québec and it was from July, 11

1992 September, 26 1990.

And it was in the knesset can s attack resistance

or the mohawk resistance at the knesset talk between mohawk

protesters and called the police and the results in Canadian

tactical victory and of mohawk blockade.

And there was casualties of mohawk elder joe, armstrong and

one week Horn Miller and for the Canadian pipeline railway,

A little summary is is the wet suit went West

Witton First Nations territory and british Columbia.

And it went on from January 7 2022, March 2020,

and it was the construction of the coastal gas plate

pipeline. The effect, so notable, notable forces, I feel where

uh the identity re imagination, because the idea of using

indigenous history to recreate their identities, so they want to

change perspectives of other people and try to fight for

what they think is right instead of going through like

stereotypes and being oppressed.

And another one is self governance.

So the idea of self determination through their rights and

organizations, so that's practically protesting and fighting for what just

basic human rights, the solution.

So my view is actually uh I feel that the

power of the, I felt that indigenous people are actually

very powerful.

They're about to endure from not only mental but also

physical and emotional strength, like their strengthening and they have

tons of endurance and I have more respect for their

land and their culture and more understanding.

And I'm just overall open minded and the way I

would spread the word, I would try to educate others

by spreading the word and make sure that people understand

the indigenous peoples' struggles.

And I will also make sure I participate where I

can from protests, petitions and educating other people if they're

wrong and just basic support and practically keep the story's

going, as I would say, because people would say, and

that's pretty much it for my friend wants to know.
