Colbert VS Alexie <- Video link.
Video Portion: 0:00-2:40
Alright you know you have an excellent speaker when you can stump Steven Colbert. I like Colbert to a degree but I don't care for how rude he is. My mom made the point that he is rude to everyone. Anyways I got a kick at how no matter what Colbert said Alexie had a come back.
I thought it was entertaining that Alexie was able to get Colbert with the fact that Columbus was in front of his hotel room. With Colbert there seems to be a need to have psychological warfare to even have a chance on his show. Honestly I think Colbert had his butt handed to him. He finally concedes and says that Alexie and himself shouldn't be fighting but in reality I think he doesn't have any come backs.
Now the Anglo's forgiving the Native Americans was a little wack but funny because then there was a come back. I like I said think Colbert got his butt handed to him. Alexie hit Colbert with a left hook saying that they forgave Anglo's for small pox. Then Colbert tried to slap Alexie with asking for the blakcets to be returned but dry cleaned.
I thought it was interesting when Colbert brought up spirit voices. I believe that we all have them in our own way but a wolf like Colbert assumes. I think not. Then again Alexie feels the need to correct Colbert's assumption of everyone having a wolf spirit voice by saying he has an the spirit voice of a squirrel. We all have a voice of our own and it shows it's self in different ways you just need to listen to it.
Another thing that stuck out to me the assumption that all Native American's can talk to animals. That got to because we all make assumptions about different races. We assume that anyone of hespanic race is a hard labor worker or a maid. We assume that all Asian's are smart and tech oriented. We assume that whites are rich. We assume African-American's deal drugs. We assume Muslims are terrorists and opressive towrds women. The list goes on. You may not agree with these view but it happends everywhere. WE ALL MAKE SOME SORT OF ASSUMPTION ABOUT PEOPLE.
