Native Americans
Colonials cause all of their problems
They have a number of amazing songs, chants, and poetry
They have interesting rituals, i.e. sun dance, dead race
How can I include a passion of mind to show a connection?
Passions
Music
Art
Sleeping
Cooking
I could make a dish
Non-meat, no peanuts
Fry Bread
Easy to make, tastes good, can bring some in for class
I can draw a picture on screen
If its not amazing it could be offensive and boring to watch
I can write a song, but it may seem offensive
Maybe a dreamlike video with fourth-wall breaks?
It could be funny and not horrible to watch in class
How should I frame the video.
Demonstration
Vocal over video
unlike the video on depression, there is nothing I can demonstrate without appropriating culture
I can speak like Emily Pitts
Its a little superficial, but it might work
Reflection
I like the way my video turned out
Could have definitely used more audio, but the act of making something is also important to watch
Fry Bread
I should have noticed the bubbles with the chopstick
I set off a fire alarm
The bread in the end of the video is remade
I think it sounds superficial, but I know we weren't supposed to just dish out facts
I think for me, It was powerful to relate something I like to do with the single story I learned about. The fact that I got to cook really made my day, and although it may not have come out well in post, I tried to relate steps to the experience.
Adding dry ingredients was native american tribes being associated together
Milk was colonizers and brought up trouble --> It was sticky
Cooking = talking about what is good about them
Finished product = "They are Naive Americans"
