Analysis Of The Poem Adair Billy - 1235 Words

Adair Billy is quite connected to her Indian identity, although it does not seem like it. She lives in New Orleans, Louisiana, working as a stockbroker for a large firm, where she is highly sought after and praised for her abilities. She made a name for herself there by saving many clients a lot of money, she woke up to a voice telling her about a company that was not doing well. She removed her clients from the firm going under, many believing that it was her Native upbringing, and they are not wrong. In addition to this, Adair has a strong interest in early Indian commerce and relations within New Orleans. This causes her to believe that her job as a stockbroker is connected to her Indian identity, the narrator saying, â€Å"Adair tells herself she’s following a tradition established by her ancestors. After all, Indians were the first commodity traders of the New World† (Howe 42). She has found a way to incorporate her background into her life, even though she is not living in Durant, Oklahoma anymore. Her Indian identity is present within her career and interests, different from the way Auda’s is present, and different from the way Tema Billy’s is as well. Tema Billy no longer lives in Durant, but is close by in Dallas, Texas. Tema is an artist of all kinds; she first worked with the American Indian dance company and made the move to New York City. She worked odd jobs and eventually took up acting, playing roles as a Spanish, Greek, and Italian woman. She then has a son withShow MoreRelatedStephen P. Robbins Timothy A.
