Black Hawk's Surrender Speech, 1832

"You have taken me prisoner with all my warriors. I am much grieved, for I expected, if I did not defeat you, to hold out much longer, and give you more trouble before I surrendered. I tried hard to bring you into ambush, but your last general understands Indian fighting. The first one was not so wise. When I saw that I could not beat you by Indian fighting, I determined to rush on you, and fight you face to face. I fought hard... My warriors fell around me; it began to look dismal. I saw my evil day at hand. The sun rose dim on us in the morning, and at night it sunk in a dark cloud, and looked like a ball of fire. That was the last sun that shone on Black Hawk. His heart is dead, and no longer beats quick in his bosom. He is now a prisoner to the white men; they will do with him as they wish. But he can stand torture, and is not afraid of death. He is no coward. Black Hawk is an Indian."

A. Chief Joseph is uncertain of the future of his tribe and hopes the White men will help them survive, while Black Hawk has developed a relationship with the White men when they attack and capture his tribe unexpectedly.

B. Chief Joseph gives in to the White men to avoid sacrificing his people, while Black Hawk evades the White men and continues to fight against them.

C. Chief Joseph sees all that has been taken and resigns to avoid any further death, while Black Hawk is captured and vows to continue fighting at all costs.

D. Chief Joseph is angry and uses that feeling to fight for his tribe's land, while Black Hawk is heartbroken over the loss of his tribe and agrees to be captured.
