Articles on the Lenape

The two articles I read were in regards to the Lenni Lenape and the Nanticoke natives. The first article titled "Strategies for Survival: The Nanticoke Indians in a Hostile World" which was published in 1979. The second article was published in 2017 from a Widener law student titled "Utilizing Dignity Rights to Further Tribal Prerogatives: The Lenape Indian Tribe of Delaware." Reading these two articles juxtapositioned against one another gave a more concrete passage of time in the struggles both the Lenni Lenape and the Nanticoke face and are still facing.

Considering one article is more styled as a law document and the other being more of a historical document, the styles of writing were extremely different. That being said they're both equally important to one another to paint a more clear and concise picture to the reader about the tribes. Also the considerable amount of time between both of the articled being written puts a lot about the Tribes into perspective regarding their welfare, history, and future.
