Bewegend wichtig

Bewertet: Buch (Taschenbuch)
Das Buch folgt unterschiedlichen Perspektiven, die alle beim selben Powow enden. Alle Perspektiven geben tiefe Einblicke in Lebensrealitäten von indigenen Menschen in den USA, in allen Altersgruppen und unterschiedlichen Lebenslagen. Und dennoch zeigt das Buch die Probleme auf, die große Teile, wenn nicht sogar alle, Indigenen in den USA betreffen. Sehr bewegend und extrem wichtig.
Grandios
