Review
Chapter 30: Wagamese emphasizes the contrast between the white team’s wealth, evidenced by their flashy arena, and the Indigenous team’s relative modesty. Right away, the Moose feel out of place. The white team has a different way of doing things, and because they’re playing at the white team’s arena, they’re teased in various small ways. Although a lot is different about this game—the location, the atmosphere, the opponents—Virgil wants his players to concentrate on their game instead of allowing themselves to be intimidated.
