blog assignment 5.

Most of history stories are talks about the winner’s story to boasting their own nation. The achievements of the great men are good way to let the nation learn the pride and love for their countries. However, some of history should have to be written by loser’s focus like the Holocaust or the aggression of the Japanese Empire. Korea is sensitive in Japanese history textbook because Japan tries to pervert their invasion. They use subtle expression as deny their coercive oppression and they write the aggression as it was justified. So, Korean always closes watch on Japanese history text book. However, when we learn American history, it is hard to see the Native American’s focus story. We can read their story only from a literature or personal search, not history text book. The history that I learned was about when Europeans started settle and how they move to another state with aimed gold. If we could learn an additional history which focus on the Native American, our viewpoint of them would be different. It is necessary to listen how painful that lose their homeland. I heard that Indian Reservation Areas are still exist and their lives in a needy life. If the truth that Native Americans are deserved to compensation treatments, they may not be in need anymore.
