Somewhere in the timeline, the Indians just disappear. Gone. They just don't exist, most mission museums do not even acknowledge that native people exist today.

Everybody ... asks, Andy, how can you support the guy? I have to be able to sleep at night. So I have answered that: I believe Junipero Serra was a very, very good man in a very, very bad situation. And the bad situation is what we call colonialism, junipero Serra is being proclaimed a saint because he lived the life of a saint.

I am the only descendant of Indians who were missionized at any of the 21 California missions who is currently in a position of responsibility at one of those missions. So it's a unique situation, and it's one that I would hope in the next 20 or 30 years changes.

These are the positive things that could happen. The pus is still oozing. Do you want to put a poultice on it to make it better?
