Dave Barry
native-american land people
The occupation of America (and Columbus's arrival quite clearly was an occupation, no one can deny that) meant that the entire history of the Native Americans was rendered invisible.

native-american roots issues

men inventory energy
The greatest flaw of human beings is to remain glued to the inventory of reason. Reason doesn't deal with man as energy.
