Fantasies of the Master Race: Literature, Cinema, and the Colonization of American Indians

Description

In this volume of incisive assays| Ward Churchill looks at representations of American Indians in literature and film| delineating a history of cultural progaganda that has served to support the continued colonization of Native America. Literature and art crafted by the dominant culture are an insidious political force| disinforming people who might otherwise develop a clearer understanding of indigenous struggles for jestice and freedom. This book is offered to counter that deception| and to move people to take action on issues confronting American Indians today.
