thats bad. But not until the 70's here, vespa.
during the 40's and 50's they used to make indian children go to interned schools away from their parents. Trying to take the indian culture out of the newer generation. While the parents were sent to the reservations. All sorts of conspiracy theories follow through with that. One of them being (and you can take this however you like) that the indian males were fed high starch diets, which in turn makes them addicted to sugar. When you are addicted to sugar you are at much higher risk of becoming an alcoholic. I have read many books by well-known indian activists and they dont necessarily buy it, but Its an interesting theory as the reservations in the united states are full of many chronic alcohol and drug abusers. Sorry I went on so long and off topic. This is more like a stream of consciousness at this point :P
