The purpose of this assignment is to have you think about how it feels to be considered "the other." Begin by trying to put yourself into the place of the conquistadors or the conquered. How would you feel about your conquerors? Why would the conquerors not respect the conquered? What happens to people when they encounter the "other"?

Next, write about a time when you (or someone else that you know well) was considered (either by yourself or others) to be the "other." How did it make you feel? Did you do anything to try to change the situation, and if so, what? Try to relate your experiences to both how the conquistadors dealt with the "others" and how the conquered felt in the newly discovered Americas.

Your original post should be at least 200 words in length and should be well written (follow the conventions of grammar, spelling, and capitalization). Once you have written your post, you are required to respond to at least two other posts.
