Were Lewis and Clark Respectful Towards the Amerindians They Met on Their Journey?

The journey of Lewis and Clark is a world famous feat. The explorer was accompanied by Sakagavia with other people, passed through the undeveloped western Western West and made it successful on the way. Prior to starting the expedition, Lewis and Clark were near each other and ordered to deal with the local people they contacted. But there is a controversy as to whether they respect the American Indians. Personally, I believe that Lewis and Clark did not follow Jefferson 's orders to be polite to American Indians. In Lewis' s diary, their rude remarks to the locals became clear. "We left one of our horses and took the best of the Indians." In addition, Lewis said, And his people shot local shields, bows and arrows and left medals to the Indians they killed earlier. Lewis and Clark 's behavior may be justified as the Indians tried to steal their weapons, but Clark insisted that the Indians were not going to kill him and his people. If this is not sufficiently persuasive, another encounter with Indians also indicates the abuse of local people by Louis and Clark. In a speech by Meriwether Lewis, he showed how he and his men despised indigenous peoples called Otoe. In his speech, Luis always called otoe "children" and expressed how to think he is inferior to otto. In addition, Lewis says to them when they do not like the "great father" (US President), their fields burn, their rivers are depleted and disease is bothering their people An ordinary grass merchant brings you all the mouth of the river he owns. If you make him unhappy, he can gladly seal them ... "When Clark repeatedly met American Indians, they did not respect them, in particular they were local Burned and occupied and ridiculed the American Indian property to express their disdain for the people of the United States.

There is no doubt that Assiniboines understands the attitudes of Lewis and Clark against them. So it is not unreasonable to assume that they will avoid explorers. This explains why Lewis and Clark recently reported signs of Asiniboin, but it does not seem to have Asiniboin. That's why, when one day Luis and Clark came to Missouri, I thought that it was interesting that Assiniboin said that he was not talking about the problem. Sri Lanka left the river. He said that they retreated to the observatory a few miles north of the very high altitude, and they observed the expedition on the Missouri River. /13/
