Sherman Alexie Quotes

I Know Who You Are," The Chicano Said To Thomas. "You're That Indian Guy Did All The Talking." "Yeah," One Of The African Men Said. "You're That Storyteller. Tell Us Some Stories, Chief, Give Us The Scoop." Thomas Looked At These Five Men Who Shared His Skin Color, At The White Man Who Shared This Bus Which Was Going To Deliver Them Into A New Kind Of Reservation, Barrio, Ghetto, Logging-town Tin Shack. He Then Looked Out The Window, Through The Steel Grates On The Windows, At The Freedom Just Outside The Glass. He Saw Wheat Fields, Bodies Of Water, And Bodies Of Dark-skinned Workers Pulling Fruit From Trees And Sweat From Thin Air. Thomas Closed His Eyes And Told This Story.
