"Everything You Wanted to Know about Indians but Were Afraid to Ask"
made me think about the incident and about how non-Natives ask us
strange questions.
For the most part I think American Indians simply ignore, laugh or
try to forget about the strange and embarrassing questions asked by
non-Natives.
In "Everything You Wanted to Know about Indians but Were Afraid to
Ask," he covers a wide range of topics, such as terminology, history,
religion, culture, powwows, politics, economics, casinos and education.
The book can be read from front to cover or can be read by subject.
The chapter on history is a treat because it presents accurate
accounts about Columbus, the first Thanksgiving and real story of
Pocahontas that school aged never learn in America about the nation's
first people.
The author of nine books, his "Everything You Wanted to Know about
Indians but Were Afraid to Ask" will not disappoint American Indians or
non-Natives who want to learn more about American Indians so that they
don't end up asking strange and embarrassing questions.
