Soong-Chan Rah reflects on Richard Twiss, a Native American writer, speaker, scholar, and activist, whose witness to Evangelicals (and beyond) critiqued prevailing understandings of Native communities. Soong-Chan shares how his own friendship with Twiss offered a unique window into his humor, assertiveness, and determined insistence on the humanity of Native people.
