Well, at least nobody's disputing the man's artistic ability.  As for the man himself...

I'm saddened by Boyden's decision to speak out as he has this time, about  his alleged mistakes and/or "misrepresented" heritage.  If he decided "it was time to listen," fair enough. No need to humble himself publicly and make a confession of guilt.  What pressures he must be enduring.  It's tough to be "cast out" by the very people that, through your art and comments, you  thought you were assisting. 

"But I’ve spoken too much. Others need to speak."  
An interesting observation.  Are there other potential "spokespersons" eager for the spotlight and decided to hector Boyden right off the stage?  "I think we have to start hearing those more in the mainstream media."  No fault of the media, but suspect it'll be a long wait.  Mr. Boyden is right about one thing: it will be interesting.

I think Mr.Boyden has nothing to flagellate himself about. But then, I'm not Native. So much for what I think.
