"there were some very interesting points, and stuff that i hadn't considered, even though i feel like i have thought a lot about the history of colonization of this land called the united states. there's a chapter on the relationship between tribes & the feds & tribes & the BIA which i found very informative. there's also a whole chapter on indian humor that's really funny & although i felt a little like a voyeur reading it, i still laughed a lot & enjoyed it. i didn't finish the end because it gets very capitalist-oriented. i can totally understand that when a community has been totally robbed & deprived of resources, any influx of resources is good, regardless of framework, but it just wasn't really for me. i'd recommend this book, even if you don't finish it."
