At the Indian Museum

A few days ago my parents and I went to the new Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian. Sadly it was very crowded and the space doesn’t lend itself to crowds. It would have also been nice to see some more historic exhibits instead of the “life sucked for a long time, but this is what we’re up to now to try and make things better” dispalys that they had.

What I thought was somehow strange was seeing a small pack of Mormon missionaries wandering about the halls. In case you’re missing the point, the Mormons have a slight prejudice against Indians. I wonder what they were thinking?
