Assertion Analysis: I'm Tired of Fighting
What circulates the world? Power, money, manipulation, and greed. How does one gain it? Targeting submissive, obidient, mild humans. Power and greed is the essence of what took place when the colonists seized the Native Americans. Colonists empathically and forcefully assembled their way into Native grounds. Naturally, the natives rigidly fought back but were ruthlessly exploited and mistreated by the colonists. The struggle of retaining their land and culture exhausted them. Colonists shouldn’t have the right away to dominate one’s land or corrupt and convert one’s culture. Sadly, Natives didn’t have the entitlement to triumph in the never ending battle with the colonists.
This fatigue exhaustion was exhibited in Chief Joseph’s surrender speech taken place on October 5th, 1877 and interprets how worn out and fatigued him and his were. He commences his speech with “I’m tired of fighting.” How can four words be this affective? He simply accepts defeat and weariness. This gives the colonists even more power and places him in the state of vulnerability. His vulnerability indicates onto his audience to perceive the feeling of defeat. His speech constantly orbits around death and demise. Time after time, he uses the word “dead” and conveys how everyone who meant something to him have resulted to that. He gives up for the death of others while accepting the vanquishing defeat. This grants him more time to locate and obtain his loved ones. The fight is now meaningless, while the lives lost or not aren’t. Those lives consist value and importance. He exerts his last few sentences to really articulate the effect colonists carried within themselves not just on him but the Native community in general. He ultimately asserts, “I am tired; my heart is sick and sad. From where the sun now stands I will fight no more forever.” His proclamation quarries our reactions. He not only clarifies his weariness but provides a standpoint that’s not pointed out in history. This simply arranges one’s view on the effect colonists had on Native Americans.
Everyone deserves to have a voice. One has to have empathy in others to understand the struggle of what one has gone through like the Natives. No people should ever have to face the catastrophes the Natives went through. Chief Joseph’s speech exalts and augments the realism of our country.
