Gyasi Ross: Breaking dawn on a new 'Thing About Skins' series





"What better way to start off a new column in Indian Country Today Media Network than to talk about an Indian boy who is hopelessly for—against the weight of supernatural forces, no less—the love of a white girl? What can be more “Indian” than that?

It’s about as natural as an Indian turning into a werewolf (he probably should’ve turned into a little poodle because I think white girls love carrying those around in their purses and petting them heavily).

The latest Twilight movie came out this week. A friend (yes, an adult) asked me if I had any interest in going. I hope he (yes, “he”) was joking."
