Review title: Powerful, Riveting
Product review: I decided to read this book after a few events in my life made me realize the inadequacy of my education regarding U.S. treatment of indigenous peoples, both in the past and today. Once I started reading, I could not put it down. On one hand, since I am just a few years older than the author, I could completely relate to the emotions and rhetoric she expresses from that tumultuous time period. The references to activist names and views from that time period awakened some powerful emotions.On the other hand, as a Caucasian woman, the author took me into new territory and a different way of life, which is the real value of this book. The racism to which she and other residents of the reservation were (and probably still are) treated is abysmal. We, as a country, love to point the finger somewhere else, but some real soul searching is in order. Mary Crow Dog's account is sincere, convincing and honest. I highly recommend reading it.
