How does Junior emphasize the beauty of the reservation despite the negative images he constantly explains?

Junior understands the poverty and desperation of the reserve. He also understands its beauty. After Junior ventures into the white world of Reardan, Junior sees the inequalities between white society and reserve society up close. White people, junior observed, generally do not go hungry or live in abject poverty. The reserve, however, has elements white society does not have. The reserve has extended families, people who take care of others, a sense of common and shared experience and identity. People get together to sing, commiserate, eat, and get drunk. White society seems more isolated.
