He knew I was a member of the Indian Nation and was very curious about our lifestyle .He was aware that the all Indians were making a lot money from the gaming community .He was a card carrying member of the Indian Nation and I wanted to know more about them .He was wrong about the Native American gaming community and I wanted to educate him .
What may be the reason I wanted to discuss Indians with him ?
embarass him ! " as I was certain this would be the effect the moment I informed him that I ' m a card carrying ( yes , we carry cards ) member of an Indian nation . The other part just said , why bother ? I took a moment without disclosing my ancestry to inform him that it was a common misconception that the Indians were all taking home buckets of money from the gaming community but I could see it was simply a lost cause . Or at least not one for a business call .
