Book excerpt: Excerpt from Glimpses of Indian America: Illustrating Present-Day Life in Mexico and Parts of Central and South America Indians is the result of the attitude of mind of the ruling class toward them. They are not supposed to have any self-respect. Overseers frequently strike them, and children of families where servants are kept are accustomed to domineer over them in a rude and heartless, manner. The Indian has been used as a beast of burden, and brutalised by whip pings and strong drink. While not savages like their brethren in the Amazon forests, they are yet far from being civilised. They have simply been domesticated. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
