For me the article about American Indian heritage by Paula Gunn Allen was really interesting and new. I have never read something about an American Indian woman talking about women from there country and how they are seen in their society and that they are "worth" so much in their community. This reading does relate to me in a really big way, because for my family tradition is a really big deal as we have a lot of it in Bavaria. We wear our traditional clothes ("Lederhosen"for men and "Dirndl" for women) even if there are no special events. So just to go out or even sometimes at school. So as the Indian women pass their traditions to their children, my parents pass the Bavarian culture to me and I really am proud of being born in Bavaria :)
