The incident in which Ayah's children are taken away is one of the more intriguing parts of the story. I must agree with the initial response, this certainly seemed to me that Ayah was tricked into signing her children over. The entire story recounts Ayah's difficult life, which all seems to stem from interactions from white authority figures, in this case the dubious doctors. Perhaps this is not the intention but her ordeal with the doctors is very renin of the experience Native American had with Columbus and the settlers of Jamestown. She is relating the the decide of the white doctors to the historical deceit of the white settlers. This can also be seen in the way the hit rancher takes advantage of her husband. Intersectionality is applicable
