The story of the Indian woman, Mankiller, was the most interesting to me. The name caught my attention of course but her story was so interesting. I just find it so crazy that she was driving along and wrecked. But not only did she wreck, but killed the other driver. But not only was it just a driver, it was her best friend!! It was just shocking because whenever I imagine a car crash I never consider that the people involved would know each other. I also never thought of Indians having cars. I know it sounds dumb but my mind was stuck in the stereotype of them riding horses and wearing loin cloths. I never thought about how they evolve as the majority of our societies do. The name was also a neat story. It’s a name of respect where she’s from. In our society if someone earned the name “mankiller” we would be afraid of them. I sure would be! Because in our society killing someone usually doesn’t mean strength or gain respect. Our killers get locked up, most of the time.
