So, does anybody here like these modern songs like "Mickey Mouse" and "superman". I know alot of people think they're cute and evidence of an evolving culture,but to me it seems like a real dis to all those old timers and traditional ways. I'm sure if white guys had made these songs,there would be a different response to them. Regardless of how old those old songs are, they always were made to honor something or remember something special. These songs only help to erode the long standing oral traditions of the indian people. Just one more step in the assimilation process. There's really nothing to be proud about in these songs and that's an important part of cultural identification.
