Native American Studies
Rose STREMLAU. Sustaining the Cherokee Family: Kinship and the Allotment of an Indigenous Nation
Americans read about the Trail of Tears in high school textbooks, but they remain largely ignorant of the events after American Indians arrived in Indian Territory, the current state of Oklahoma. They are unfamiliar with the histories of the Indian peoples who suffered on the Trail but rebuilt their nationhood. They are also ignorant about the policies of the United States government in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries that destr…

W hen American Indian/Native American studies (AI/NAS) programs began to emerge in the halls of academia during the late 1960s and early 1970s, some who served as faculty and staff questioned whether they would be one-generation phenomena.Would the programs survive, would they continue to draw students, and could they make an impact on institutional curricula to promote the development of future scholars?Such programs were generally marginalized …

American Indian Studies:Intellectual Navel Gazing or Academic Discipline? Clara Sue Kidwell (bio) The academic field of Native American/American Indian studies (NAS/ AIS) has been and largely remains a product of political forces at the national level and now at the tribal level.

Beginning in the 1960s, Protestant missionaries became controversial figures in the realm of Native American scholarship. Often the agents of a righteous cultural imperialism, many missionaries plainly sought to eradicate indigenous spirituality and replace it with Euro-Ameri…
A Discussion of Scholarly Responsibilities to Indigenous Communities
As the editor of H-AmIndian, a joint project between the History Department at Arizona State University and the Center for Humane Arts, Letters, and Social Sciences Online housed at Michigan State University, I have discovered that discussion threads go in cycles.

Powhatan's World and Colonial Virginia: A Conflict of Cultures
Frederic W. Gleach offers the most balanced and complete accounting of the early years of the Jamestown colony to date. When English colonists established their first permanent settlement at Jamestown in 1607, they confronted a powerful and growing Native chiefdom consisting of over thirty tribes under one paramount chief, Powhatan. For the next half-century, a portion of the Middle Atlantic coastal plain became a charged and often violent meetin…

New Frontiers in Native American History
Indians played a role in Frederick Jackson Turner's frontier thesis as the resisting force against which Americans forged their identity in a new land. For Edward Curtis, whose monumental photographic project captured images of Indians in soft sepia tones, they were a vanishing race. Today, Indians are actors in American history, and their remarkable adaptation to changing circumstances has allowed them to survive as identifiable communities with…

What Would Pocahontas Think Now: Women and Cultural Persistence
In a classic case of sexual stereotyping, Joseph Gilfillan, an Episcopalian missionary, described the Chippewa Indians in Minnesota c. 1900-the tall, graceful male bounding through the forest, unburdened except for his bow and arrow, while behind him plodded the short, stodgy, rotund female, bearing a tremendous burden on her back, atop of which rode a small papoose. In Gilfillan's mind, the woman's stature was exemplar of her destiny since women…
