Is James Horn’s assertion that “Jamestown also presents two sides of America’s founding. On the one hand, England’s New World offered many settlers opportunities for social and economic advancement unthinkable at home; while on the other, colonization unleashed powerful destructive forces that were catastrophic for Indian peoples, whose lands were taken by colonists, and for enslaved Africans and their posterity, whose labor enabled Jamestown, and indeed America, to flourish” true? Why or why not?

Respuesta :

James Horn's views about the founding of "Jamestown" present balanced perspectives by considering the opposing sides of the impact of America's founding.

Economic advancement indeed propelled the founding of Jamestown. There were also knock-on effects of the colonization of Jamestown by the English. The Native Americas lost their lands, and some lost their lives. Africans became slaves to help this economic advancement.

Thus, James Horn's assertion about Jamestown is true. America has its foundation on the visions and industry of the pilgrims and with the sweat and blood of other human races.
