Description
Cartoonist Ricardo Cate describes Indian humor as the result of "us living in a dominant culture, and the funny part is that we so often fall short of fitting in." His cartoon column, Without Reservations, is a popular daily dose in the Santa Fe New Mexican. Actor Wes Studi says, "Cate's cartoons serve to remind us there is always a different point of view, or laughing at every day scenes of home life where Indian kids act just like their brethren of different races. Without Reservations is always thought-provoking whether it makes you laugh, smirk, or just enjoy the diversity of thought to be found in Indian Country." REVIEWS: Cate hits on the irony native people feel and express in humor. Larry Cespooch, Ute Indian filmmaker ILLUSTRATION: 180 illustrations
