This was a conversation between a journalist and a professor of American Indian Studies, who spoke about aspects that explain and throw light on how Americans, today are coping with education, curriculum and knowledge based research.
Explanation:
This was a simple yet deep conversation that spoke about sensitive and crucial aspects of Native Americans and their education over the years. This text is for readers to understand how and why there were certain situations which created a sense of ambiguity, vulnerability and fear of the style that was followed by boarding schools for Native Americans.
Professor Truer talks about how negatively these boarding schools influenced children in the beginning of the 1900s. They created an effect on the entire generation which lasted for more than 70 years till a proper reformation of these ideas and ideology were eliminated, not completely but in majority.
But he makes it a firm point for us to understand that there is no specific agenda or situation that states or shows readers how this is still effecting high school graduates today, for their lower academic performances.
