    The document discusses the title "Unearth" and what it could mean in terms of what is being unearthed. It references the quote "Kill the Indian, save the man?" in relation to residential schools and destroying Indigenous cultures. It finds odd the conversation between Beth and a police officer after discovering a body, questioning why a former grave would not be suitable. It also finds important Beth's meeting with a young Indigenous woman on the reservation.

    Answer by incorporating quotes whenever possible

    1. As we’ve learned by now, titles can be important to story ideas and development. What could
    the title mean? What is being unearthed?

    2. “Kill the Indian, save the man?” (76) It wasn’t actually Sir John A who said this, but the sentiment
    rang true. What does this quote mean?

    3. The talk between Beth and the police officer after the discovery of Henry’s body is odd. What do
    you think maybe implied by this conversation and why wouldn’t the former grave be good
    enough?

    4. Another odd meeting is with the young woman on the reservation, why is this meeting
    important?

    5. Why is there no competing with a memory? Why is it that good memories go first?

    6. Why is T--------s Beth’s last name?

    7. Why didn’t Beth tell Lindsay about Residential School?

    8. What did the T -------s like? What does that imply?

    9. Was the punishment for Beth’s mom fair? Why or why not?

    10. Write a paragraph comparing the two childhood’s in each respective story.
