Informative and Emotional

Dodging Bullets is both incredibly informative and emotional. It clearly explains a rarely discussed topic in historical trauma, and does so through the Indigenous experience in what is now the United States. I could feel the weight of that trauma that the featured people carried with them, but I could also feel their strength in their determination to fight for better. As a White citizen, my first step is always to educate myself and listen. Dodging Bullets was an entertaining way for me to do so on an important topic.
