American+Relation

The book Ceremony can easily relate to the American ways because in early America the Native Americans owned the land and controlled it. In this book seems that Tayo and his friends are living in the mid-west, which makes sense because that is where most of the Native Americans live now since they were sort of kicked out of their own lands

Some of the American experience seen in this book is discrimination towards Indians because Emo explains to Tayo that whites have taken all the land from the Native Americans.

All of the main characters in this book were in the war. Tayo witnessed the death of his cousin Rocky as well as and his uncle Josiah. The threat or experience of death sometimes results in posttraumatic stress disorder, which the characters in this book struggled with.

Other things such as bravery in being a war hero. Tayo is respected as a war veteran and people recognize him by it.
