Pocahontas (vedio + reading passage)

I used to watch Disney cartoons when I was young and Pocahontas is one of the movies that I enjoyed to watch. From a child point of view, the cartoon was depicted as interesting and colorful pictures. As I get older, my perspective have started to change. Now, I start to rethink over how Native Americans' might feel about the colonization from other countires.

From watching the cartoon, 'Pocahontas' , I felt that the immigrants or people who came from England were potrayed as a greedy and selfish people who want gold and resources in order to satisfy their lives. Besides, Native Americans and immigrants from England called them each other 'savages.' Since they are both strangers, it seems that they called them as 'savages.'

After watching the vedio, I had a chance to read a passage about pocahontas. The truth is that I was not able to understand the passage clearly, however, I was able to understand the author wrote the article based on the Native Americans. The vedio and the article is based on the Native Americans. However, from my perspective, the vedio is created from American point of view. However, the article, itself is written for the Native Americans to claim the author's opinions. Consequently, the vedio and reading passage provided me a chance to rethin about the Native Americans.
