Americans on one side, English colonists on the other.

Homework:Complete your DRAFT work. Your FINAL due date is on Friday.

This video is totally related to our learning. This movie shows humans taking what they want no matter what people get hurt in the process. humans come to a foreighn planet searching for a very valuable earth mineral and in the proccess destroy the native aliens home and destroying their most sacred area. This is a movie that shows human nature, see something we want destroy everything in our path to get it.
ReplyDeleteThis film connects to what we are currently learning because it shows people (the English) who meet these creatures in a new land (N.A.). The people want the resources that the creatures have. The people fight and wage war against the creatures when they refuse to leave an area that is sacred to them. The people only want the area because underneath, there is some resource that they really want, even though they don't need it. Not all people want this though, so some people side with the creatures to help them. The only thing is that the ending of Avatar is very different from the N.A. and English situation.
