European style writing, although far from the intricate record keeping of wampum and oral traditions of her Wendat ancestors, proved the most effective method for Sioui to combat colonialism. Rather than rejecting colonial culture in its entirety, Sioui incorporated it into her ammunition and used poems, petitions, textbooks, and memoirs as a means to write, or right, the injustices of the world she was born into. Writing was her main source of power and she used this skill to educate both Indigenous and non-Indigenous people alike.

These early Korean women immigrants fought for the freedom of their beloved homeland from one empire, Japan, and did so while living in another empire, the United States. Korean women immigrants contributed immeasurably to the Independence movement. Their nationalist efforts utilized both informal networks and formal organizations and in doing so they exerted significant public influence through their collective efforts to aid those killed or injured in the Independence movement, to raise awareness for Korean independence, and to preserve ethnic pride and cultural identity. Although still marginalized in both the public and scholarly discourse, early immigrant Korean women redefined traditional gender roles, preserved Korean culture while facilitating Americanization, and contributed in very important ways to promoting Korean independence, peace, and unity.

Emma Willard’s history and atlas are rich documents through which to explore American history as the history of a settler society. Her strong nationalism, combined with her pedagogical experimentation, forcefully influenced contemporary ideas about American history and geography. Her History of the United States was reprinted almost annually between 1828 and 1864, and Willard herself educated thousands of young women, many of whom would themselves go on to teach, armed with her ideas about history, geography, and the national mission.
