Two questions 3/1/13

I think John Rolfe married Pocahontas because he believed that Indians were equal to the white man. He probably did it so people would see that Indians are as civilized as white people. It also showed how Indians are affectionate towards other people too and that the Indians welcomed the white people. When they had their child the people of England could see that an Indian is still a human being and that and white man and an indian woman can bear a child together. Mainly John just wanted everyone to get along with each other no matter what race.

 

Canibalism in Jamestown was pretty gross, but they were just trying to survive on what they had. I would have probably let the people I love eat me so they could stay alive. Either both of you are going to die if one of you doesn't eat the other or just one of you are going to die if you do. So I would let the people I love kill me and eat me so they could stay alive. I know people think it's gross but humans have meat just like a cow does.
