Critical Thinking question:

Clarks opinion towards Lakota’s people was “These are the vilest miscreants of a savage race, they must ever remain the pirates of the missouri until such measures are pursued by our government as will make them feel a dependence of its will on their supply of merchandise”
Hypothesize: Why does Clark consider the Lakota people to be “savage”? What biases may Clark possess that led to his conclusions?
