Little Crow, Leader of the Santee War of 1862
Little Crow, Leader of the Santee War of 1862 Elizabeth Cook-Lynn (bio) 38 Nooses: Lincoln, Little Crow, and the Beginning of the Frontier’s End by Scott W. Berg Pantheon , 2012 For some, this is a book about Little Crow, the Dakota Isanti leader of the War of 1862 in Minnesota. For others, it may be about Abraham Lincoln, the president who ordered the largest mass hanging of indigenous peoples in U.S. history, though he is better known for freei…

An Origin Story
An Origin Story Elizabeth Cook-Lynn (bio) When the first issue of the Wicazo Sa Review was sent out from my office at an unassuming state university in Washington state, Eastern Washington University, in 1984, no one knew what to expect. Would we find readers? Would the academic world accept us, our contentions and ideas, in a scholarly publication dedicated to the idea that Indian First Nations are sovereign nations with long, arduous, and diffi…
The Lewis and Clark Story, the Captive Narrative, and the Pitfalls of Indian History
Certain conventions concerning individualism, tribalism, community, and nationalism have merged within the historiography of American Indians, and these conventions are especially vivid now at what is being thought of as the dawning of a new millennium. It appears that we are now in the midst of a time that commemorates when Plains Indians and white Americans first met on the upper Missouri River during the 1804 journey of Meriwether Lewis and Wi…

Who Stole Native American Studies
ofordays in March 1970, American Indian scholars met at the First Convocation of American Indian Scholars at Princeton University, Princeton, New Jersey, thousands of miles away from the homelands of the western Indians who dominated the meeting. This convocation brought together scholars, professional people, artists, and traditional historians and billed itself as the first convocation to proclaim that the academic intention of U.S. colleges an…

American Indian Intellectualism and the New Indian Story
The role of Indians, themselves, in storytelling of Indian America is as much a matter of jurisdiction as is anything else in Indian Country: economics, law, control of resources, property rights. It goes without saying that it reflects our struggle with colonial experience of our concomitant histories. If that sounds benign, it is anything but that. On contrary, how Indian narrative is told, how it is nourished, who tells it, who nourishes it, a…

Scabby Robe of Montana shares the cipelo songs of the Lakota. By invitation San Carlos Crown Dancers, fickle and chalky, teasing, curing, they dramatize the good part and the light. Bright, giddy young shawl dancers and heavy, reposing old women step in time, perfect, nimble. One sits still. At last the woman in a red cotton powwow dress, a dogged fighter, Bitch-Mother to the Tribes, desperate daughter and Star Girl dominates the circle

The Broken Cord
Collaborator. Ensuring Domestic Tranquility
In the American Imagination, the Land and Its Original Inhabitants
Roughing it. (Jacket Cover Notes) One must wonder after reading Great Plains if the publishers, or the author himself, knows what it takes to present work of scholarship. It is hard to find the elements of thoroughness, accuracy and the qualities of critical analysis in Mr. Frazier's work, that one ordinarily expects to find in such a project based on history. Essentially, there is nothing new or informative. The work, quite frankly, is a rehash …

For severalyears, from 1904 to 1916..it took that long to understand it. From about 1916 to 1922 they studied it. They were concentrating understanding, andfinall…
The Radical Conscience in Native American Studies
Most of the time when I begin a discussion of Native American Studies, I begin by addressing the past, the educational practices which have failed, the hypocritical goals of assimilationists, the selfserving agendae of those whites who have been in charge of educating America's first people. This time, however, I would lilke to begin by talking about the present, by examining the modern influences which have been so astonishingly and profoundly f…

Who Gets to Tell the Stories
The American Indian Fiction Writer
One of observations made by Third World literary decolonization theoreticians like Homi K. Bhabha (Sussex), Timothy Brennan (Purdue) and perhaps a dozen other scholars even lesser known in United States is that there are particular modern writers whose origins are not Euro-American (such as Salman Rushdie, Vargas Llosa, perhaps Isabelle Allende and V.S. Naipaul and, if you are to believe Asian-American critic and novelist Frank Chin, even Amy Tan…
