This was probably my favorite portion of the movie Reel Injun; John Trudell puts a different spin on the appropriation of certain representative characteristics (some might even say cliches) of American Indian culture by Anglo youth. When viewed as one large community of humans, it's very obvious as to why even the descendants of colonists have the right and desire to contemplate their role in the web of life. It speaks truths about the worthiness of pursuing such ideas of center and balance. I found his affirmation of the community of life to be very enlightening.
