Lincoln has been living on the Reservation for a year and a half. When he returns to the Southside of Minneapolis to look for Simon, he realized the city has switched. As the book says from Lincoln's point of view, " The city has shrunk while he was gone. He can see the changes now. How some neighborhoods are giving over to blacks, the Indians moving to the Northside, Hmong and Guatemalans fighting over Saint Paul." (260). This view that in a small amount time ethnic diversity can change quickly. Native American is moving away from the south and different ethnicities are coming. The whole city was mixed in diversity. The swap of community diversity shows how Minneapolis is impacted and the adaptation of other ethnic culture. For example, the book states "The clerk eyed and turned back to Betty. The disdain in her eyes familiar, the surprise at seeing two Indians in the city quite new. Not today, thought Betty. God, just not today." (36).
