Advanced Placement (AP)

Chapter 22 in Two Roads by Joseph Bruchac is about how Cal has a brief encounter with an instructor who, "despite the fact that he is an Indian himself" (235-236). The theme that is emerging from the book is our peers, our school, our families, and our experiences can affirm or threaten our identities. Chapter 24 helps to develop the theme because when Cal was stomp dancing it showed that his identity as a white person was threatened since the stomp dancing showed his Indian identity. When Cal first arrived at Challigi he thought that it would be miserable and he would be learning how to be American but after two months he learned more Indian than he was American. Pg. 219 “I no longer feel like an out-of-place white boy, the way I did before. I feel like I belong to our gang. Maybe I’m not totally Indian, but I’m not the same as I was before. I’m seeing things another way.” Pg. 223“Soon all of us are dancing, including me—an Indian boy who thought he was white, following a white boy who knows he’s Indian.” Cal finds out his true identity, and his Indian culture, because his peers and gang helped him learn more about his Creek culture by doing the stomp dancing, constantly talking in Creek. Cal doesn’t feel like a hobo anymore and he is learning more about how to be an Indian and he doesn’t feel out of place anymore
