Answer 2

Answer:

White Americans and Native Americans had different perspectives on land ownership since white Americans felt that property could be purchased, owned, and settled on, whereas Native Americans believed that land could not be owned and that it was shared by all. The land was taken from the Native Americans and used for farming, hunting, raising cattle, and selling by white settlers. "American Progress" depicts how European settlers drove Native Americans and buffalo west from their ancestral lands. The Native Americans were seen as less than human by the White Americans, who believed they could seize their territory. Because of the Native Americans' benevolence and altruistic views, the White settlers took advantage of them. "You've requested that I plow the ground. Shall I take a knife to my mother's bosom and tear it apart?” Native Americans felt that the land and its riches should not be damaged or exploited. Finally, European settlers appropriated land and resources that were not theirs and evicted Native Americans from their ancestral lands. The Native Americans were charitable, whereas the white Americans were just interested in taking and moving their people forward.
