Growing up impoverished and shuttled between different households, it seemed life was bound to take a certain path for Eddie Chuculate. Despite the challenges he faced, his upbringing was rich with love and bountiful lessons from his Creek and Cherokee heritage, deep-rooted traditions he embraced even as he learned to live within the culture of white, small-town America that dominated his migratory childhood.

Le Béarnais, le roi de Navarre, le vert-galant... Et encore le panache blanc, la poule au pot... Ces surnoms et ces symboles personnifient le souverain le plus populaire de notre histoire, tout autant que les portraits sur lesquels ses yeux malins se plissent entre la barbe en éventail et les cheveux drus et rebelles. Mais il n'y a pas que cette imagerie populaire. C'est à Henri IV qu'on doit la fin de 35 ans de guerres civiles, la tolérance religieuse, le retour à l'ordre et à la prospérité dans le royaume.

On April 29, 1992, following the acquittal of four police officers charged with the beating and arrest of Rodney King and the earlier killing of teenager Latasha Harlins, the city of Los Angeles erupted in violence. Many of these events were centered on the city’s Koreatown, where tensions between the Black and Korean American communities had simmered for years, fueled by economic challenges and redlining and enflamed by sensationalized and racist media.
