Weekly Reflection 11/13/12



        What we learned this week about the Appalachian culture is that back then the Appalachian people used to tell stories. What they still did was singing and dancing. They used to hunt rabbits with their dogs to find them. What else they did was that they would exaggerate their stories to the real life. They used to hand make their own instruments and their own toys.  The girls could not talk to boys. The boys had to chase the girls to talk to them. The people in Appalachia had different accents then now later in life.

 

Getting taken from my house

From white man

On to the trail

To Oklahoma

In the west

Now to a prison camp

With my own kind

Cold

Less food

Barely have anything to sleep on

And underneath

Three months passed

Body in very much agony

Can barely walk

Any farther

Somewhere getting close

Couple months later

We got to Oklahoma

Now we make our homes

And get good food to eat

And then rest for a very long night
