Regarding the magazine "Indigenous Thought" .... and also "The New World"
are the articles written by those who are in a position to actually know
"Indigenous thoughts"? or are they written by "anglos" who are GUESSING
about what indigenous peoples are thinking .... or who have interviewed
indigenous people who might be telling them what the indigenous people
are thinking .... according to what that particular individual wants the
"Public" to believe? I would be especially interested on the qualifications
of the writers of the one published by the Smithsonian ..... lots of advanced
degrees but often little concept of reality. If anyone knows any details
on the writers or editors of either magazine, information would be
appreciated.
