Throughout the discussion between the natives, promoters, colonists, all three groups got to share their perspectives on several situations that happened in the New World. They talked about giving back, general peace, freedom, security, support, and money. There were more than enough points brought up in the “fishbowl” discussion that needed to be discussed. It was interesting to see how they got into character and said what they needed and wanted to say. All three groups communicated about miscommunication, and all brought different proposals about how they could change the tense situation for the better. I think that the promoters were good at talking about what happened and what they expected while collecting information to create a solid and strong proposal. However, everyone did a good job overall getting into character and sharing their piece of mind. I think that it's such a great way to discuss things, even though it might be a bit unorganized, yet it still felt simple and comfortable. It created an atmosphere that everyone was comfortable in. I think that some of the most interesting points brought up during the discussion were when the natives were telling the promoters why they allowed the colonists to be so violent and treat the natives like worthless humans. It was interesting because the promoters weren't even there to see it, so they could say that they didn't do it yet they were the ones sponsoring such trip to the Americas. I was a bit confused though, especially when the natives wanted to stay neutral and the same but yet they relied so much on the colonists like I don't think the natives went in depth on that and left me with some questions. I would love to learn more about the promoter's "dreams and visions". They never set a foot in the new world but yet they were so sure and confident about what they talked about the new world and how they promoted it. I also want to know how the forced colonists felt and what they had to go through in the new world and how they felt about this new world.
