Native American Roots: Relationality and Indigenous Regeneration
Under Empire, 1770-1859 explores the development of modern
Indigenous identities within the settler colonial context of the
early United States. With an aggressively expanding United States
that sought to displace Native peoples, the very foundations of
Indigeneity were endangered by the disruption of Native connections
to the land. This volume describes how Natives embedded
conceptualizations integral to Indigenous ontologies into social
and cultural institutions like racial ideologies, black
slaveholding, and Christianity that they incorporated from the
settler society. This process became one vital avenue through which
various Native peoples were able to regenerate Indigeneity within
environments dominated by a settler society. The author offers case
studies of four different tribes to illustrate how Native thought
processes, not just cultural and political processes, helped
Natives redefine the parameters of Indigeneity. This book will be
of interest to students and scholars of early American history,
indigenous and ethnic studies, American historiography, and
anthropology.
