When it became public that Osama bin Laden's death was announced
with the phrase "Geronimo, EKIA!" many Native people, including
Geronimo's descendants, were insulted to discover that the name of
a Native patriot was used as a code name for a world-class
terrorist. Geronimo descendant Harlyn Geronimo explained,
"Obviously to equate Geronimo with Osama bin Laden is an
unpardonable slander of Native America and its most famous leader."
The Militarization of Indian Country illuminates the
historical context of these negative stereotypes, the long
political and economic relationship between the military and Native
America, and the environmental and social consequences.
