Bell 6:
I want to know what you know. If you don’t know it, both of us have not done our job. I will always help you. Do not stress out about bellwork. I use bellwork to help me teach and to check what still needs to be clarified.

Directions: You will turn in this bellwork today. You cannot take it down to the computer lab. This bellwork is based on what you learned last week.

1. What is racism? (Think about what I drew on the board.) And how did it start in America? Draw a picture if necessary. Racism is not calling someone a bad name.

2. As the elite (rich) eleven men were talking about immigration to Hawaiʻi, how did they plan to use racism to make money in the sugar plantations (control the economy), control society and control government?

3. As Kaipo asked, how did maka'ainana Kanaka Maoli (Native Hawaiians who lived on the land, common people) lose their land according to the book? Remember the group presentations? You should write three main reasons. Don’t include the obvious ones such as the annexation and the overthrow.

4. Group 4 presented on the Kuleana Act: name two things that made it difficult for common Kanaka Maoli to own land? Remember the paper airplanes Thomas explained to us?
