I was waiting at the dentist office this week, flipping through an old Readers Digest, & came across an article on Thomas King, novelist & educator. The interview was regarding his latest book - The Inconvenient Indian, an account of Native people & their treatment over the past two or more centuries. Having experienced first hand the same social views towards Natives, I look forward to reading it.

Therefore, I am posting an interview with The Star http://www.thestar.com/entertainment/books/2012/11/16/the_inconveni...
