Summary:"Mediating Indianness investigates a wide range of media- including print, film, theatre, ritual dance, music, recorded interviews, photography, and treaty rhetoric- that have been used in exploitative, informative, educative, sustaining, protesting, or entertaining ways to negotiate Native American identities and images. As it pulls apart stereotypes and assumptions about Indigenous identity and culture and strips away old concepts and ways of seeing and doing history, this vibrant collection points towards a dynamic future that recognizes Indigenous identities in a complex intersection of cultural influences." -- Publisher's website.
