Thomas King Quotes

The Sad Truth Is That, Within The Public Sphere, Within The Collective Consciousness Of The General Populace, Most Of The History Of Indians In North America Has Been Forgotten, And What We Are Left With Is A Series Of Historical Artifacts And, More Importantly, A Series Of Entertainments. As A Series Of Artifacts, Native History Is Somewhat Akin To A Fossil Hunt In Which We Find A Skull In Almo, Idaho, A Thigh Bone On The Montana Plains, A Tooth Near The Site Of Powhatan's Village In Virginia, And Then, Assuming That All The Parts Are From The Same Animal, We Guess At The Size And Shape Of The Beast. As A Series Of Entertainments, Native History Is An Imaginative Cobbling Together Of Fears And Loathings, Romances And Reverences, Facts And Fantasies Into A Cycle Of Creative Performances, In Technicolor And 3-D, With Accompanying Soft Drinks, Candy, And Popcorn.
In The End, Who Really Needs The Whole Of Native History When We Can Watch The Movie?
