1. Why do you think this week's chapter from the textbook is titled, "Bloody Footprints"? What is a quote or example from the chapter that really seems to capture your interpretation, and why?
2. What were your initial thoughts/reactions to the excerpts from William Bradford's "Of Plymouth Plantation"?
3. What were your thoughts/reactions to "the true story" of Pocahontas Myth?
4.What is the “national myth” that continues to perpetuate the Pocahontas Perplex discussed in Green's article?
