Uh, SOME white men can't drum.
Some are incredible drummers.
Saw a film of Gene Krupa last week, the man was unbelievable.....
Aside from that, a good critique.

| As a person who has both native American and European blood I must point
out that no one culture has a lock on feathers, drums, skins and a lack
of rythum. I am deeply disappointed that some men here will do and say
anything to restrict men from reveling in the idea of just being a man.
They seem to be so tied to women's definition of men that they now
cannot think of enjoying the world of men. White men may be stumbling
trying to discover their manhood but at least they are trying, it is
not tied to a woman's approval or definition.
N.O.M. now
N.O.M. for tomorrow

| I agree with you, Wayne. I think romanticizing Native American ways
isn't the answer, but what is important is that some men are taking
a look at how they want to define themselves. The fact that so many
are interested in doing so shows that the need exists. Some men are
interested in re-definition, some are not, and it would be nice to
see tolerance in this community for all points of view. The basis of
this movement is men defining themselves.
