He is a Jew who was raised during the extreme anti-Semitism of the Great Depression. Having witnessed the fruits of the New Deal firsthand, Beir became a Roosevelt scholar.

In Jonathan Lear's view, Plenty Coups' story raises a profound ethical question that transcends his time and challenges us all.
