- Inhalt:
- In 2013, the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Indian organized a symposium debating the controversial name of the D.C. football team, the Washington Redskins. At the same time, the Oneida Indian nation of New York sponsored a series of radio ads advocating a change of the team s name and logo. Since the earliest days of the European colonization of what is now the United States, Indigenous peoples of North America have had to wrestle with stereotypical portrayals of the Indian and hegemonic images of Native Americans as the racial other of white America. This course will explore Native American literature and culture in historical contexts, focusing on texts, films, photographs and other cultural materials produced by indigenous writers and artists in order to examine how Native Americans envision relations between themselves, their peoples, and the American nation.
Starting with a selection of excerpts from some of the earliest autobiographical and fictional texts published by Native Americans in the U.S., we will think about how these 19th-century authors took up and revised popular discourses of nationhood and Americanness during the time of westward expansion, Native American removal and the Ghost Dance movement. During the second half of the course we will turn to 20th-century texts, beginning with two Westerns from the 1940s/50s, an era when the U.S. government revoked tribal sovereignty rights in order to force Native Americans to assimilate into mainstream society. Finally, we will read a selection of literary texts published in the aftermath of the American Indian Movement of the 1970s that restored and expanded Native American self-determination, and end the course by analyzing Native American representations in photographs and comics by 21st-century indigenous artists.
