Alcohol is a major problem on any reservation. I am from the Navajo Nation and I have seen countless problems associated with the use of alcohol. Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS), domestic violence, murder, abusing and neglecting of children, loss of one's self-importance, anger, and the carrying on of racial beliefs. Racism runs rampant for the negative ways "we" believe. Alcohol only serves to enhance their beliefs.

A Native American person whose lifestyle is very modern or in line with the American mainstream?
A lot of Native Americans live in modern times for sure, they drive cars, they have TV's and radios and fridges, stoves, microwaves and cell phones so in a sense most Native Americans are modern. How they practice their Native American culture and traditions along with spirituality is were they become different. The more modern Indian has adapted to his modern culture because of location and money in a lot of ways, a lawyer who is Native American living in New York is different that a 100% Souix living on Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in most cases. Especially the ones who speak Indian.David, member of The Pokagon Band of Potawatomi

What did the pima Indians hunt?
The Pima (or Akimel O'odham also spelled Akimel O'otham) are a group of American Indians living in an area consisting of what is now central and southern Arizona.The Modern Reservation as of 1859 is called the Gila River Indian Community. The long name, "Akimel O'odham", (formerly known as Papagos) of Eastern Papagueria and the Hia C-ed O'odham ("Sand Dune People", formerly known as Sand Papagos or Sand Pimas) of the Western Papagueria. They are also closely related to another river people, the Sobaipuri, whose descendants still reside on the San Xavier Indian Reservation or Wa:k (together with the Tohono O'odham) and in the Salt River Indian Commmunity. The short name, "Pima" is believed to have come from the phrase pi 'añi macor pi mac, meaning "I don't know," used repeatedly in their initial meeting with Europeans.[ 2]Dr.Hooves
