From the title I expect this excerpt, taken from the book "Bury Heart at Wounded Knee" written by Dee Brown, who can speak of the colonization of North America.
The text is about how the natives of the New World, which are called Indians, welcomed the pilgrims from Plymouth in 1620.
the natives of the New World welcome pilgrims as if they were "helpless children", so they feed them and reveal the techniques to cultivate corn and fish, teach him to survive the cold winter. as a result of these "Englishman" began to shape the territory at will, cutting down trees on the coast, and gave the name of "New England" to these lands.
This was not enough for "White men" who, not happy, sought the right to have a 'further part of Pemquiaquid land, at the expense of the natives, that unsuspecting let they signing a contract made by the "white mans."
The settlers , however, were increasingly expanding, with the arrival of other settlers and they needed a new spaces, that expropriating the great chiefs.
The reader may note that the settlers are defined by the color of their skin, they are called "white mans", this underlines the backwardness of the natives of the New World than in the south who called themselves the "barbarians settlers."
The idea of the strong conditions is really express settlers in the third line of the text, where the settlers are compared to "helpless children" ,these lines are particularly interesting since they make the reader understand the kind of prejudice the natives had.
in Addition the text presents us with a type of behavior by the "white mans" who still now a days, which to subjugate all people they encounter, which often are too naive, and too ignorant to understand what that it happens.
