Ethnicity plays a long part in the worlds history and contentiously has negative effects our society. Everyone in their culture group has some kind of viewpoint on a different culture group from theirs. Which could cause some problems for both sides getting the wrong idea on how one ethnic group acts different than the other ethnic group. The way most people see how a few, or a couple of people from the a different culture act, say in a negative way, then they my start to think that is how that ethnic group act as a whole.

David Treuer, it states, "For now, many Native American languages still exist, but most of them just barely, with only a very few living speakers, all of them old" (Treuer 652). This quote pretty much sums up how some Native American languages are on the break of being lost. Not all
Native Americans are speaking their native tongue now a days because they are either speaking in English due to either work related problems or some other issue. Treuer also states that the total of the 300 Native American languages, only 150 of them are still around. This gives us an idea of how culture is changing all around us, and nothing stays the same.

In a film called Crash, directed by Paul Haggis, show tense race relation that goes on in the city of Los Angeles, and how stereotypes are viewed by each different race. Multiple characters are show how they intertwine with one another and shows that none of them are perfect in their own way and even the victims of these racial remarks are not so perfect themselves.

In Teuer words he states the "Indian activism used to be a tough guy's game", which would imply on who most of the Native Americans acted during their time in the AIM. Which shows even when the victims can act a little unjust as well.
The similarity between Crash and From Rez Life would be how each culture group see how the other views them or treats them compared to other cultural groups. Not everyone is going to be treated the same, because everyone has their own different belief or opinion on
