  • We Do Not Want the Gates Closed Between Us: Native Networks and the Spread of the Ghost Dance. By Justin Gage

    Open AccessA Fisher, Andrew H FisherARTICLEWestern Historical Quarterly2022

    In popular culture, communication among Native Americans is often described using stereotypical phrases such as “smoke signals” and “the moccasin telegraph,” which imply primitive or even mystical means of sending information over great distances. By the late nineteenth century, however, Native peoples had become adept at using the infrastructure of settler colonialism to create intertribal networks that circumvented federal control. Justin Gage …

  • Defenders and Dissidents: Cooks Landing and the Fight to Define Tribal Sovereignty in the Red Power Era

    A Fisher, Andrew H FisherARTICLEComparative American Studies An…2020Cited by: 1References: 3

    The 'Fish Wars' in the Pacific Northwest during the 1960s and 1970s hold an important yet predictable place within the historiography of the Red Power movement. In standard works, the fish-ins and other protests serve as a prelude to the larger pan-Indian struggle that seized public attention after the occupation of Alcatraz. The fight for treaty fishing rights thus serves as a proving ground for individuals like Hank Adams and organizations like…

  • Tinseltown Tyee: Nipo Strongheart and the Making of Braveheart

    Open AccessA Fisher, Andrew H FisherARTICLEAmerican Indian Culture and…2018

    Nipo Strongheart's role in the DeMille production of Braveheart enables us to see the Native American performers of his generation as actors, in multiple senses of the word, not as mere objects of the cinematic gaze. Like other “contact zones” where Indigenous intellectuals and performers engage with non-Indigenous audiences and expectations, Native agency was exercised in the movie industry as well. This article demonstrates that even as they fo…

  • Indigenous Women and Work: From Labor to Activism ed. by Carol Williams

    A Fisher, Andrew H Fisher et al.ARTICLELabor Studies in Working-Class…2016

    In a recent editorial for Daily Kos, Denise Oliver Velez observed, “We still learn little of Native Americans in our history classes, and of Ndn [Indian] women, not much beyond Pocahontas and Sacagawea. Rarely is that history linked to living Native American women and their contemporary lives and struggles. Some historians, activists and Native American and Women’s Studies scholars are trying to change that and are beginning to teach the history …

  • The Sea Is My Country: The Maritime World of the Makahs . By Joshua L. Reid

    A Fisher, Andrew H FisherARTICLEWestern Historical Quarterly2016

    The Makah Indian Reservation covers less than forty-seven square miles of Washington’s Olympic Peninsula. Nestled on Cape Flattery, the westernmost tip of the continental United States, this remote strip of coast consists mostly of rocky headlands, dense rainforests, and storm-tossed beaches with limited economic potential. It is, in sum, just the sort of place one would expect the federal government to put an Indian reservation. To focus on such…

  • They Mean to Be Indian Always: The Origins of Columbia River Indian Identity, 1860-1885

    A Fisher, Andrew H FisherARTICLEWestern Historical Quarterly2001

    Due to a combination of state weakness and Native determination, many Indians in the Middle Columbia River region never moved to reservations or resided there only seasonally. This essay examines their resistance to federal policy and explains how that resistance contributed to the creation of a distinct Columbia River Indian identity
