I had an Indian face, but I never saw it as Indian, in part because in America the Indian was dead. The Indian had been killed in cowboy movies, or was playing bingo in Oklahoma.

That's one of the reasons, of course, why I always insist, in my bratty way, on saying, Soy indio! - "I am an Indian!"
Organization for action will now and in the decade ahead center upon America's white middle class. That is where the power is. ...

Subsidizing the markers doesn’t produce the traits; if anything, it undermines them.
