Anthropology, Theory, and Research in Iroquois Studies, 1980–1990: Reflections from a Disability Studies Perspective
8. Anthropology, Theory, and Research in Iroquois Studies, 1980–1990Reflections from a Disability Studies Perspective Gail Landsman (bio) Having played a primary role in producing and disseminating representations of North American Indians, the discipline of anthropology also became a major contributor to the critical analysis of those very representations (Strong 2004:341). Indeed, in their assessment of relations between anthropologists and Ind…

The "Other" as Political Symbol: Images of Indians in the Woman Suffrage Movement
During the course of the American woman suffrage movement (1848- 9z20), suffragists' portrayals of North American Indians were affected by complex identifications of gender, race, and class as well as by ongoing tensions between arguments based on women's equality with, or their difference from, men. As suffragists reassessed their strategies and reinterpreted the definition of woman- hood relative to the vote-and as living Indians themselves und…

Response to Hauptman's Review of Sovereignty and Symbol
After reading Hauptman's (1990) review of my book, Sovereignty and Symbol: Indian-White Conflict at Ganienkeh, I feel compelled to address the numerous errors and misrepresentations the review contains. They begin with the false statement, after reference to events at the Moss Lake site of Ganienkeh from 1974 through 1977, that Gail H. Landsman ... was a witness to these events. This is a curious statement, because I certainly make no such claim.…

A Native Man Is Still a Man: A Case Study of Intercultural Participation in Social Movements
A case study of a "failed interaction" between a Mohawk Indian women's health group and the Women's Peace Encampment in upstate New York is presented. We focus on a decision-making process that, despite one group's professed interests, nevertheless served to hinder intercultural participation in a social movement We argue for events as the appropriate unit of analysis in the study of complex societies, and suggest that meanings, related to each o…
Indian Activism and the Press: Coverage of the Conflict at Ganienkeh
On the basis ofan analysis often years' coverage of a Mohawk/white conflict in upstate New York, this article suggests that media discourse plays a constitutive function in political action. Iargue that byframing the Mohawk activists in terms ofAmerican notions ofethnicity and Indian traditionalism, the press contributed to tensions among various actors in the conflict served the interests of the New York State government and played an important …
Ganienkeh: Symbol and Politics in an Indian/White Conflict
A land dispute following the "repossession" of territory in upstate New York by a group of Traditionalist Mohawk Indians is examined. Each side placed the dispute within the context of preexisting conflicts that served as "interpretive frameworks" for political actors. The process of change and manipulation of symbols that publicly represented these frameworks is traced. Research findings suggest that an answer for how symbols work in mobilizing …
