what does the author mean by "half-breed" and why does she keep on using it in the text?


What the author meant by Indians needing to be half-breed is that they need to be raised like a white person or be surrounded with white people and their culture instead of theirs. They use this term throughout the text to show how much it matters for the author to implement white subjects into Indians so the text doesn't feel like Indians are not vulnerable or not in need of a white savior in their lives in order for them to grow throughout the novel. ]]> 2021-09-24 15:30:19 UTC https://padlet.com/csanford20/ilvho0i5iwc657k8/wish/1765989430
