Twenty-five year old Marc Lepine walked into the University of Montreal’s Ecole Polytechnique, murdered 13 female engineering students, a woman staff member and killed himself.

stereotypical “Plains Indian”, which I come to think of as a member of the Lakota, Nakota, or Dakota. Images could be shown in class to show students the “stereotype” versus an actual Native resident of South Dakota. The scenes with Russell Means, a native of Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, and John Trudell, a native of the Santee Dakota, show an interesting perspective into how the extreme poverty and corrupt politics still factor into daily South Dakota Native American life today (Diamond,…

Have you ever been 12? Probably, but everyone is different when they're 12. When I was a small 12 year old, there wasn't much to me. I was misplaced, sad, scared, and stupid. And when I say stupid, I do mean stupid. As much as I'd like to blame it on my environment, it's just not something I can do. Because at that point in time, I was moved around too much for it to influence me! The stupid things I did ranged from sheltering (hoarding) abandoned animals I found at the park, and stealing…
Experiencing “Black Sundays” are what has influenced who I am. Waking up that Sunday morning, to the harmonies of my granny’s loud Gospel music, the pungent smell of bleach, or the sweet lemon scent of Pine Sol has immeasurably affected my life, and the person I’ve grown into.

simple everyday chore routine quickly turned into a trip to the emergency room that I will never forget, all thanks to a Barbie bicycle and my overzealous attitude. It was a typical Saturday morning consisting of spring cleaning and the aroma of Pine Sol swept the house. As I diligently rationalized every excuse that came into my mind on how to avoid my mother’s dreaded assigned Saturday chores, I heard my mother holler for me to come into the kitchen. “Yes Ma’am?”, I timidly questioned,…
