Assertion Analysis #7

In Hunkpapa, Lakotas statement explains how defending himself and race toward the white race is a primal instinct. He shouldn't feel pressured to be assimilated into the white culture. In the text he writes," If the Great Spirtit desired me to be white man he would have made me so in the first place". Lakota feels as though his race and culture should never be changed . If he chooses his path to death, he would die in honor of his true self. Also, he will defend his race to the day he dies. I almost feel as maybe he is intimidated by the white race . only because it seems as if he has something to prove to them.Throughout the text he uses syntax with is short and simplistic sentences to assert his quick points. He uses Logos by reasons to know the white race will only try to force their culture upon them .
