	Since you;ve totally distorted my point, I'll remind you of it.
My point is that the indigenous people are well and truly in the sway of
capitalist property relations whether they assimilate or not.  My point is
that they cannot insulate themselves from capitalist property relations
and I do not see their movement undermining those relations.  My point is
that the economy which fostered their pre-capitalist property relations is
gone and vanished.  It cannot be re-established, nor is it the intent of
the indigenous people to re-establish their pre-capitalist economy.

	Since these things seem to be true, it follows that the
"indigenous peoples" movement is a reformism.  It is an important
reformism, possibly an essential one for the indigenous people, but a
reformism nonetheless.  That doesn't make it bad, but I think it limits
the movement's import for the proletariat.
