(not know) what to do and (to be bored) I went to the cinema yesterday
I watched an (spannend) movie.
The movie shows how (voreingenommen) Hollywood is.
It was very (interessant) to see that they have been discriminating against native American for decades.
The thing (to make) I found most absurd was that that Native Americans are not even invited to castings for the role of Native Americans!
The US government, however, wasn't any better in the past: (try) to make them good Americans the US didn't allow Native Americans to stick to their old traditions.
(to convince) the US government, how bad this attitude is, some Native American tribes have gone back to their traditional lifestyle.
(to be) proud of their old traditions, the Crow started the Crow Fair some decades ago.
