Essay Topics...

I really don't know where to start with what I want to write about.

My first subject that I would want to write about is something to do with the christianization of the Indians or something in that ball park.

Maybe something involving the depiction of native Americans in movies and how they have been made out to be fools. perticularly in the movie Searchers.

I was also interested in the more educated Indians like Charlot and talking or exploring their upbringings and how they addapted soo well.

  1. I was thinking that you might be able to combine these last two topics, comparing the intelligence of Charlot to the [what word do I want?] of Scar. Both seem to be angry at the treatment of their people, but Charlot's argument shows a logical intellect that I don't think we ever see from Scar--which isn't to say that Scar is depicted as unintelligent, of course, but there are some interesting differences between these two that might be interesting to explore.
