Blog 6 - hay friendsss

Okay so, basically 108 - 139's real message was boooo whities.

We start off with the story about the boy who's mother leaves him behind all the time to go get busy and whatnot, and we can pretty much conclude that boy is Tayo. It's not actually said out in the open like "hayyyyy the boy was Tayo", but it's pretty obviously implied.
Anyway, so then Tayo was all up in the medicine man plan, and he meets Betonie (girl name?). So Betonie makes sure that we all (and Tayo) understand he's not a witch because witches are stupid because they made white people. Well it's not like that, but Betonie explains that white men were made with Indian witch magic.
So all kinds of sad because the Indians did it to themselves and all. Boo hoo ): Basically I thought the whitey part was the most interesting.

I'm gonna use the quote lots of homeslices used (why am I so pathetic D:!)
"They want us to believe all evil resides with white people. Then we will look no further to see what is really happening. They want us to separate ourselves from white people, to be ignorant and helpless as we watch our own destruction. But white people are the only tools that the witchery manipulates; and I tell you, we can deal with white people..." page 132.

Small kine question, so does this imply that since they control white people, they have controlled them enough to cause Indian destruction? Or, manipulated to ruin Indian tradition? I don't know, it confused me, but it was really interesting to hear the Indian story about it.

NEXT!
"The contest started like that.
Then some of them lifted the lids on their big cooking pots,
calling the rest of them over to take a look:
dead babies simmering in blood
circles of skull gut away
all the brains sucked out.
Witch medicine to dry and grind into powder for new victims." Page 134

WHAT THE EFF ARE YOU SERIOUS? What the hell does dead babies cooking in a pot fix! You disgust me.

uhhh. How many quotes do we find?
TWO IT IS.

Kay byeeee (:
