What the White Race May Learn from the Indian

"What the White Race May Learn from the Indian" by George Wharton James is a thoughtful discussion from the past that looks at the good things about how Native Americans lived, and it encourages white people to think about adding these things to their own lives. Even though the book admits that both groups have problems, it argues that white society could really benefit from the simple and healthy lifestyle of Native Americans. Straight away it asks us to think hard about how white people have treated Native Americans. The story points out some not-so-great things about Native American culture, but it's really about seeing and using the good parts of their lives, like living outside, using natural ways to stay healthy, and feeling connected to nature. It asks for a fairer, nicer way of thinking about Native Americans, saying that learning from them could help white people live better lives.
