SNACK
this week was my turn to bring a snack. i brought wasabi peas. they are dried peas coated in wasabi and come from the asian culture. i found out about them from my oldest sister, she is always finding cool new foods to try. when i found out we had to bring an intercultural snack and i instanly asked her because i knew she could help me.
SPEAKER
lauren yellow bird sr was our guest speaker this week. i was really facinated by his talk. i guess i didn't really relize that some native people really dont like white people. thats what has stuck out most to me. and also how cruel white people were to the native people. i have the picture of the white people throwing boiling water on a native women while she was digging through the trash for food stuck in my head. :(
OTHER STUFF
i didnt think that reservations were as poor as they appear to be. the pictures that we saw of the pine ridge reservation were astounding. i didnt know people lived like that on the reservation. it seems like a very scary place and a tough place to grow up in.
