The Indians and whites could not live peacefully side by side due to the early history of behavior of whites which breed mistrust in the Indians. One example of Indians inability to trust whites started as early as the Jamestown incident in which whites repeatedly incited violent acts upon the Indians in order to establish themrselves as rulers and lawmakers over the Indians. Most whites were of aristocratic background and refused to hunt or plant food for survival as it was considered beneath them. After recorded acts of canibalism committed against other whites , the Indians finally agreed to allow whites to eat the food which Indians had grown in trade for certain things and in order to prevent further atrocities. Whites continued to behave violently towards the Indians.
