Brave New World (Ch.7)

During this chapter we learn some aspects of life on a savage reservation. We see the diseases the people have, the babies they produce, and their horrific way of sacrificing (slashing someone with a whip until they fall and then giving away the blood from their back). All the while Lenina is frantic and dislikes everything, whereas Bernard finds it all very interesting. They then come across a man that looks like them, not dark skin toned like the other Indians. His name is John and they learn that his mother was a woman from their world. Bernard and Lenina are shocked! They then meet her and realize that the father of John is indeed the Director! Crazy news. Also Linda speaks how much she misses her old life.
