...Bravo to Howard Chua-Eoan and Ishaan Tharoor for an excellent piece. They clearly have an understanding of the Filipino psyche.

Overlooked History Like many articles about the history of the U.S., Ishaan Tharoor's piece about the writer Washington Irving's setting for his stories in the Hudson Valley makes it sound like Native Americans never existed [Nov. 3]. Why is it that the media so often neglect them as if they were not humans, and imply instead that the Europeans were the first to walk and talk in America?
