MAY 21, 2001 "We’ve seen Indians here. A lot of ’em, and we’ve seen some things we hoped we’d never have to see. We’ve seen Native people misrepresenting Native people.

We’ve seen Native people making a financial killing over here by passing themselves off as holy people, and charging naive Britons ridiculous sums of money to perform 'ceremonies.' Scary. . ."
