Generations And Other True Stories (1995)
“Living in the suburbs, commuting to jobs and worrying about bills and taxes don’t fit the stereotypes that non-Indian writers and filmmakers have created. When I began interviewing people for this piece, some were nervous and reluctant, and I wondered why. They later told me they had been interviewed before, and that no matter what they said, it was the stereotypes that kept appearing in print.
I was relieved and proud when a number of Indians praised this story and told me they had sent copies... to friends and relatives.
It also has been used at the Dallas Police Academy to help train officers to be more sensitive to the ethnic and cultural diversity of the city.
The City Tribe The singer has sung a gourd dance song, honoring warriors. The elders have told him the song was made by Quanah Parker, the singer says. He doesn’t explain who Quanah Parker was. He doesn’t have to. The man to whom he’s speaking is Dennis Wahkinney, a great-great-grandson of Quanah.
