The Indolent Boys

definition of indolent: Disinclined to exert oneself; habitually lazy

*SPOILER ALERT*
according to a summary I found, the play we are going to read recounts the 1891 tragedy of runaways from the Kiowa Boarding School who froze to death while trying to return to their families. The play explores the consequences, for Indian students and their white teachers, of the federal program to "kill the Indian and save the Man."
