Chapters 7 and 8 Discussion Questions



Here are my discussion Questions for Chapters 7 and 8:

~True Son's theory about why the whites are so pale doesn't make sense, at this time period, everyone worked the land and spent time outside, so why is that his theory??
~ True Son and his uncle get into a fight. If someone kills someone you love, is it murder to kill or hurt them?
~ "If an Indian kills a white man, he is simply a pagan who doesn't know any better." - Uncle Whilse Is racism everywhere??
~ True Son's family tries to make him more white. Do they really think that they can erase all of his "formative years?'
~ True Son talks about the Great Spirit. We tend to believe that God (or whatever politically correct deity you choose to believe in) lives everywhere, but, are somehow held back by religion. Why?
~ The "Negro" man that they meet says that True Son - sorry John Cameron and Gordie will become slaves. Could they become trapped by the system?
