Aboriginal community

Research question: For what reason did the Euro-Canadian want the aboriginal community to

adopt their culture?

Goulet, S., Lorenzetti, L., Walsh. C. A., Wells, L & Claussen, C. (2016). First Peoples Child &

Family Review: Domestic Violence and Prevention in Urban Aboriginal Communities.

As per this text, he stated that abusive behavior, risk, and protective factors are

present in the urban aboriginal community. The multifaceted effects of colonization,

including private school trauma, are critical in understanding violence in the urban

aboriginal context. The specialist believed that there are some risk factors for aboriginal

domestic violence, which incorporate sexual orientation, financial status, age, lessened

social personality, racism, separation, and substance misuse. The Europeans proposed an

all-encompassing methodology to survey flexibility with an aboriginal context focusing

on individuals, families, and communities. I intend to address domestic violence in the

aboriginal community in physical abuse, psychological abuse, sexual abuse, and dangers

to harm kids in the aboriginal community.

Allan, B.& Smylie, J. (2015). First Peoples, Second Class Treatment: The Role of Racism in the

Health and Wellbeing of Indigenous People in Canada.

This article aims the assimilation the indigenous youngsters into European and

Christian social standards, beliefs, and practices. The source also gives data about how

indigenous kids were truly taken out from the care of their families and communities to
3

private schools, a system of institutionalized education and care that lasted well over 100

years (Allan, 2015). I will utilize this source to give supporting data concerning why the

Euro-Canadian powerfully brought their way of life into the aboriginal community.

MacDowell, L. S. (2012). An Environmental History of Canada.

This book of Environmental History of Canada, by Laurel Sefton McDowell,

centers around misusing the native climate by the Euro-Canadian; he contended that there

was accommodation with different species and nature in the aboriginal community. They

were people adapted to their environment and worked out a code of behavior for living

compatibly with their world (Miller, 1989). They lived in an integrated environment

where they farm and hunt together as a family; however, the Euro-Canadian

expansionism led European states with advanced technologies to invade remote lands

occupied by immigrant farmers and hunters-gathers, whom they displaced. These acts

were premised on the notion of superiority, conquest, and environmental exploitation for

commercial gain. The Euro-Canadian wanted the aboriginal to adopt their belief, culture,

and norms to take commercial gain over their land. The aboriginal still felt this pain even

up till today. I intend to use this review to support my argument by ensuring collaboration

between the Euro-Canadian and the aboriginal community in environmental exploitation

without adverse effects on the environment.
