Without effort, you cannot be prosperous. Though the land be good, you cannot have an abundant crop without cultivation. -- Plato
1. INDEPENDENT READING -- Begin at the bell
2. "Advice to Youth" -- we will briefly finish our discussion of this piece. I will collect your annotated copy. I should see annotation for features of satire.
3. "Red Jacket Defends Native American Religion, 1805" -- you will receive three index cards and on each card you will write a quote (example) from Red Jacket that you think reinforces Red Jacket's argument. You will also explain why that quote is supporting his argument (commentary).
e.g. "you say that you are right, and we are lost; . . ."
Red Jacket argues that if Christianity was meant for the Seneca, the Great Spirit would have provided the book it is written in as he did for the whiteman. This supports his idea of the legitimacy of his native religion.
For homework write a paragraph explaining how Red Jacket's examples contribute to his purpose.
