A Native American ‘playing Indian’: Internal colonization in professional wrestling rhetoric
This article focuses on the tension extant in the ways in which Tatanka, a Native American wrestler (person), assumes the identity of another tribesperson (persona) to generate both economic and social capital. We address Tatanka’s narrative as an example of internal colonization and commodification, given that he had to ‘play Indian’ to pass as an authentic Native American. We discuss these two critical concepts and then provide some analysis of…
Southern Paternal Generationalism and the Rhetoric of the Drive-By Truckers
This essay examines Southern paternal generational themes in the lyrics of the alt-country band the Drive-By Truckers (DBT) to get a better sense for how the songs' agents work to construct a progressive White Southern character that at once embraces the stories and advice of the past, but often does so in ways that move the stories outside of Southern stereotypes. Ultimately, the analysis reveals that select DBT songs inscribe a paternal generat…
A Clash of Native Space and Institutional Place in a Local Choctaw-Upper Creek Memory Site: Decolonizing Critiques and Scholar-Activist Interventions
This essay - a combination of authorial narrative and scholarly critique - examines a grassroots organization's (Friends of Historic Northport) campaign to preserve a site in west Alabama where a pivotal Choctaw-Upper Creek battle took place in 1785. The organization has faced opposition from city planners and business leaders intent on developing the site. I argue herein that these institutional agents have maneuvered within colonial contexts an…

Native Resistive Rhetoric and the Decolonization of American Indian Removal Discourse
This essay examines nineteenth-century Native resistance to the American Indian removal policy as a strategy of decolonization. Attention focuses in particular on the tactics of decolonization employed in the rhetoric of the Choctaw, Chickasaw, Creek, and Seminole nations as it functioned to expose the dilemmas and hypocrisies of U.S. government justifications for Native removal as animated by discourses of territoriality, republicanism, paternal…

Authoritarian Fatherhood: Andrew Jackson’s Early Familial Lectures to America’s “Red Children
The present article questions how Andrew Jackson employed the rhetorical strategy of fatherhood to bolster American nationalism while justifying the denigration of American Indians. The author argues that Jackson’s lectures illustrate a paternalism that situated American Indians in a socially subordinate position and that privileged American nationalism—particularly by way of westward and southern expansion. This subordination was accomplished th…

The "Mascotting" of Native America: Construction, Commodity, and Assimilation
Recently I stumbled across a thought-provoking athletic booster letter from my undergraduate alma mater. The mailer was addressed "Dear Seminole" and asked that I pledge money to my Tallahassee "tribe." I understood the request, of course, as constitutive rhetoric shared between Florida State University and me—discourse meant to unite collegiate and personal identities into a collective, a so-called "tribe."1 Truly, though, I am not part of a Nat…
