Hey all this the collage that I created that relates to my project I have been working on during the semester. My project was exploring Indian Boarding Schools. While I googled things like "Indian boarding schools," "Native American Assimilation" etc. I found many of the pictures which helped me to make the point of what Thanksgiving really means. I found the picture of the Native American and the white man shaking hands with the saying "Thanksgiving is a time to remember all that we have....And the genocide that it took to get it". I placed this in the middle of my collage and surrounded the picture with images I found online of the children going to boarding school and their assimilation process from start to finish with the small photo of a woman named Woxie in "traditional" western wedding clothing. It shows what was left behind during the process. I used a program calle Picasa to put this all together... Hope you all enjoy!!!

You did a great job with your Thanksgiving Day collage! I see some really great, and powerful images and I love that you did a color contrast in the center. That center picture has a nice look to it but the words are very effective.
