I grew up in Connecticut, so I’ve always felt the vacuum where Native American cuture once was, then the Meshantuckett Pequiod tribe parlayed their small bingo operation into the world’s largest casino. The state legislature, with its Puritan roots, stated that they’d do anything in their power to stop it, but the tribe is a sovereign nation, so they just went to Japan for the startup capital. The casino(s) now employ more than half the workforce in what was a stagnating economy. They handle the obscene profits just like they did before European culture came through and changed everything: they split it evenly. They set a small portion aside to buy up colonial landmarks and change them into Native American landmarks. This stuff impresses me to no end; Native Americans are cool. Then I moved to the Midwest and found myself living in predominantly Mexican neighborhoods. The reason I like them is that the only difference between Mexicans and the Irish is geographical. I’ve found that despite obvious cultural differences, we share the same sensibilities.
