Powell's Interviews: Ian Frazier
"I want people to know how much they are made by the Native American
culture that preceded them, and how powerful it is in America," Frazier
explained. "It's like a song you don't even know you know." In On the
Rez, the acclaimed author immerses readers in the contemporary
landscape of the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in southwestern South Dakota
- in Wounded Knee, the American Indian Movement, alcoholism, car wrecks,
children, heroes, and hope. Read the interview only at Powells.com.
