(Lousie) Gopher (elder in the Seminole Tribe of Florida) wrote in an e-mail. “But I know other Native tribes have experienced these difficulties, and may still be experiencing them, so I try to see it from their point of view. And that’s why they are so insulted. But on the other hand, I think to myself, We don’t go around telling them how to live their lives, so why are they concerned with our business?”
I can only imagine how the Seminole Tribe of Florida would feel about some random white guy from Canada being upset about practices they embrace, if they aren't even that happy about other tribes failing to mind their own business.
