The Abosutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian
Junior is proud of many aspects of his culture as in the powwow festival. He also lives on a reservation. he loves the indian culture he wants others to learn about it even though hes poor he still has a lot of fun.
Examples of the culture of the spokene is the powwow. " The spokane tribe holds their annual powwow celebration over the labor day weekend. this was the 127th annualone, and there would be singing, war dancing, gambling, storytelling, laughter, fry bread, hamburgers, hot dogs, arts and crafts, and plenty of achoholic brawling." junior loved his culture but he thought that his fellow tribe mates got drunk to often and so many people died because of it. his grandma got ran over by a drunk driver. his dads best friend got shot in the face by a drunk. and his sister died in a fire while sleeping and couldnt wake up because she was too drunk.
Junior loves his native american culture and wants to hold on to it forever and want to tell everyone the truth about native americans. Not that they are rich because they have casinos and they steal money from white people. they do have casinos but it has to be near the road to get alot of customers and thats why junior is poor. Actually native americans are very cultural and have lots of fun and drink and dance and sing and tell stories and have fun even though they might not have enough money. And junior thinks that he realizes that reservations are death camps and he was the only one who left.
