In response to "Some home truths about Native Americans" posted by maybe29:
thanks for that - some good info. not only is referencing required in this dodgy area of claiming aspects of history and technology, but also some kind of rationale for ownership of knowledge. hard for indigenous people to claim any of this in these kinds of discourses, as traditionally we think of knowledge in different ways - not as a commodity or ipr thing. here's where debate breaks up, and instead we must attempt to understand multiple worldviews and honor each subjective viewpoint. but who am i kidding? writing here, in this language, the western viewpoint is dominant and everything else is "other"!
