"Because “a woman is different” and the “invisible and silent” Indian of Westerns represents the completely different, then of course, “A woman is an Indian”! The woman, like the Indian with a tragic destiny, “knows / that this world is coming to an end". Like him, she is "someone that no one has listened to".
