(cont'd) The dolls, patchwork textiles, and many "traditional" crafts we think of as their culture were in fact in no way traditional until tourists starting coming to FL and money was to be made. They did not exist before that. Lastly (and best imo) alligator wrestling was intentionally cultivated and learned by importing a guy from Louisiana to teach them the moves. I mean, good for them! Make the money to feed their families off American hegemonic exotism. But nothing is as it seems.
