‘The effect that stereotyping has had on Indigenous women is one of the main reasons why non-
Indigenous people (mainly Euro-Canadian men) commit violent crimes of hate towards First
Nations women and girls.[21] Because Aboriginal women have been associated with images of
the "Indian Princess" and "Squaw" a majority of non-Indigenous people believe that Aboriginal
women are dirty, promiscuous, overtly sexualized, which makes these women vulnerable to
violent assaults.[21] In 2009, 13% of all Aboriginal women aged 15 and older living in the
provinces stated that they had been violently victimized, almost three times the rate for non-
Aboriginal women.”

Tommy’s Evidence
In this quote the author can be seen using pathos and logos throughout
the quote to pull on the reader's heart string and make them feel bad for
what the Native Women have to go through, and use logos to show facts
of the native women are treated differently than other women . This use
of patho can be seen in phrases such as “vulnerable to violent assaults”
this makes the reader almost want to do something to stop it and is able
to being the point of how these people are exposed to more violence on
an emotional level. The logos can be seen in the quote “In 2009, 13% of all
Aboriginal women aged 15 and older living in the provinces stated that
they had been violently victimized” This brings the facts straight to the
reader and allows them to see just how bad this is.
“In the NSDUH analyses, the majority of NA, 59.9% abstained, whereas a minority of
versus 32.7% of whites. NA and white binge drinking estimates were similar—17.3% and
16.7%. The two populations' heavy drinking estimates were also similar—8.3% and 7.5%.
Results from the BRFSS analyses generally corroborated those from NSDUH.”

The website that I got this quote from helped us answer our question by
supplying proof against the stereotype of alcoholism. This stereotype
has affected our relationship because Native Americans to some are
assumed to be untrustworthy and lazy, and because of this some
Natives are denied jobs.
