Indian Subjects: Hemispheric Perspectives on the History of
Indigenous Education brings together an outstanding group of
anthropology, history, law, education, literature, and Native
studies scholars. This book addresses indigenous education
throughout different regions and eras, predominantly within the
twentieth century. Many of the contributors have tackled the
boarding school experiences of their communities. The histories of
these boarding schools, whether run by the federal government or
religious orders, dominate academic and community views of
indigenous education, and the lessons learned demonstrate the
devastating impact of colonialism and assimilation efforts just as
they document multiple Native responses. The lessons from these
histories in the United States and Canada have been valuable, but
provide a fairly narrow view of indigenous educational history.
Indian Subjects pushes beyond that history toward hemispheric and
even global conversations, fostering a critically neglected
scholarly dialogue that has too often been limited by regional and
national boundaries.
