[edit] Perspective of the Indians

I propose that this article could be improved with a bit of a rewrite, to give a better balance between the cultural points of view of the two sides of this 'clash'.

For instance, the article could describe the status quo of the culture prior to the entry of the Europeans into the Alta Californina. And, the global political context that was part of the Spanish motiviation to colonize Alta California. I don't want to "step on toes" and am willing to discuss this and collaborate with other editors. BruceHallman 15:53, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

Bruce, I have a fair bit of source material that can be used to expand the article as you suggest. If you'd like to take the first crack I'd love to help!--Lord Kinbote 23:10, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
