My OPVL

The origin of my source is the words of 3 Native Americans that survived the massacre at Wounded Knee. This means it is a primary source. It is a verbatim transcript of the writing of the court stenographer for the council of Indian affairs. The council took place on February 11, 1891 in washington. The purpose was to inform the commissioner of the council about what happened at Wounded Knee. It is valuable to students of U.S history because it shows us about the affects of abuse towards Native Americans. It does have bias towards the native Americans, but without the bias, it would not show the affects to an extent strong enough to give a real idea of how badly treated they were. I can see no limitations other than the fact that it does not show the massacre from the US military. However if it did the value of the text being from the native american point of view would not be there and the text would be worthless.

Hi Ms. Roselander,
Sorry I couldn't get this to you earlier, but I forgot and didn't have time and stuff. I told miss Briggs about your stalker comment and she agreed after disagreeing until I explained to her why you called her that.
