you will answer one question (from a list of options below) in a short essay composed of 2-3 paragraphs (one to two handwritten pages).it will assess your understanding of the book, Pocahontas and the Powhatan Dilemma by Camilla Townsend. You may prepare notes and/or an outline to use in class based on one of the following questions:
If we explore major moments in Pocahontas’s life from the perspective Townsend offers in her book, what do we learn about Algonquian (or Powhatan) Indians at the time of colonization? For example, what do the actions of Pocahontas in her kidnapping, imprisonment, marriage, conversion to Christianity, and death tell us about the complexity of Native Americans around the time Europeans arrived in North America? As part of your answer, choose at least three major moments in Pocahontas’s life and explain those events from her perspective (as opposed to the perspective of someone like John Smith).
Imagine that you are Pocahontas. Assume it is 1617, you have actually survived your trip to England, and you return with your husband to Virginia and report to Opechankeno. You offer advice based on your experiences during the last decade on how the Powhatans should deal with the English. Use at least three experiences (drawn from three different chapters) to support the advice you think she might have given and the way she might have assessed the motives and behavior of the English.
Imagine that you are John Smith in 1624. You are called upon to offer advice to the Virginia Company in the wake of the 1622 attack about how they have mismanaged the colony. You draw heavily on your own experience in the colony, especially your meetings with Powhatan and Pocahontas, but also on the history of the colony after your departure. Use material from at least three chapters to formulate your advice.
