what i'm reading now


I've really enjoyed this book. It's the biography of the Oglala Sioux Indian Crazy Horse. A warrior who was considered strange by his own tribe because of his nonconforming demeanor and power among the tribes. What I've learned of Indians in school and popular culture has been completely turned around by my own research. It seems the uncivilized ones were not the native Americans, but those who stole their lands and violated the treaties.
