  • Aloes Are Gone” Or “Return: Buffalo”? – the Rela Alo”?
    The Relationship of the Buffalo to Indigenous Expression 65 “THE BUFFALOES ARE GONE” OR “RETURN: BUFFALO”? – THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE BUFFALO TO INDIGENOUS CREATIVE EXPRESSION TTTasha Hubbarddd University of Calgary [email protected] Abstract / Résumé While the depletion of the Buffalo has been understood as a contribut- ing factor in the subjugation of plains Indigenous people, what has had less attention is the attack on the integral relationship between the Buf- falo and Indigenous people. This relationship, like other relationships between the natural world and Indigenous people, brings together ani- mal and human into a symbiotic relationship that incorporates respect, survival, spirituality and cultural expression. By replacing the value of stories about the Buffalo, we can reinstate this animal and others as sites of learning, which can then result in a revitalization of creativity and literary expression. Bien que l’épuisement des populations de bisons soit compris comme un facteur contributif de la subjugation des peuples autochtones des plaines, l’attaque sur les liens profonds qui unissent le bison et les peuples autochtones n’a pas bénéficié de la même attention. Comme tous les autres liens entre le monde naturel et les Autochtones, les liens entre le bison et les Autochtones créent une relation symbiotique entre l’animal et l’humain qui intègre le respect, la survie, la spiritualité et l’expression culturelle. En réaffirmant la valeur des histoires au sujet du bison, nous pouvons rétablir cet animal et d’autres comme des sites d’apprentissage qui peuvent ensuite se traduire par une revitalisation de la créativité et de l’expression littéraire.

  • The American Indian in the American Film
    THE AMERICAN INDIAN IN THE AMERICAN FILM Thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in American Studies in the University of Canterbury by Michael J. Brathwaite 1981 ABSTRACT This thesis is a chronological examination of the ways in which American Indians have been portrayed in American 1 f.ilms and the factors influencing these portrayals. B eginning with the literary precedents, the effects of three wars and other social upheavals and changes are considered. In addition t-0 being the first objective detailed examination of the subj�ct in English, it is the first work to cover the last decade. It concludes that because of psychological factors it is unlikely that film-makers are - capable of advancing far beyond the basic stereotypes, and that the failure of Indians to appreciate this has repeatedly caused ill-feeling between themselves and the film-makers, making the latter abandon their attempts at a fair treatment of the Indians. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS Preface iii Chapter I: The Background of the Problem c.1630 to c.1900. 1 Chapter II: The Birth of the Cinema and Its Aftermath: 1889 to 1939. 21 Chapter III: World War II and Its Effects: 1940 to 1955. 42 Chapter IV: Assimilation of Separatism?: 1953 to 1965. 65 Chapter V: The Accuracy Question. 80 Chapter VI: Catch-22: 1965 to 1972. 105 Chapter VII: Back to the Beginning: 1973 to 1981. 136 Chapter VIII: Conclusion. 153 Bibliography 156 iii PREFACE The aim of this the.sis is to examine the ways in which the American Indians have been portrayed in American films, the influences on their portrayals, and whether or not they have changed.

  • THE WALTER STANLEY CAMPBELL COLLECTION Inventory and Index
    THE WALTER STANLEY CAMPBELL COLLECTION Inventory and Index Revised and edited by Kristina L. Southwell Associates of the Western History Collections Norman, Oklahoma 2001 Boxes 104 through 121 of this collection are available online at the University of Oklahoma Libraries website. THE COVER Michelle Corona-Allen of the University of Oklahoma Communication Services designed the cover of this book. The three photographs feature images closely associated with Walter Stanley Campbell and his research on Native American history and culture. From left to right, the first photograph shows a ledger drawing by Sioux chief White Bull that depicts him capturing two horses from a camp in 1876. The second image is of Walter Stanley Campbell talking with White Bull in the early 1930s. Campbell’s oral interviews of prominent Indians during 1928-1932 formed the basis of some of his most respected books on Indian history. The third photograph is of another White Bull ledger drawing in which he is shown taking horses from General Terry’s advancing column at the Little Big Horn River, Montana, 1876. Of this act, White Bull stated, “This made my name known, taken from those coming below, soldiers and Crows were camped there.” Available from University of Oklahoma Western History Collections 630 Parrington Oval, Room 452 Norman, Oklahoma 73019 No state-appropriated funds were used to publish this guide.

Over the course of one generation, the animal, the ecosystem, and the human culture were nearly exterminated.

  • Chapter 5 Cheyenne Ethnohistory and Historical
    Chapter 5 Cheyenne Ethnohistory and Historical Ethnography ______________________________________________________ 5.1 Introduction The word Cheyenne is of foreign origin, derived from the Dakota word sha-hi'ye- la, meaning "Red Talkers" or "People of an alien speech". Aboriginally, the Cheyenne refer to themselves as Tse-tsehese-staestse or "People."1 The linguistic distinction between the Northern Cheyenne and their Southern Cheyenne relatives living today in western Oklahoma reflect their social separation that began during the late 1820's. The fissioning of the Cheyenne into northern and southern tribal divisions as we discussed in Chapter Two, was a direct result of European contact. The Cheyenne speak an Algonquian language, one of five Algonquian languages spoken on the Great Plains.2 Despite belonging to the same language family, these languages are considerably differentiated making them mutually unintelligible. Before the pre-reservation period, there existed at least two major dialects. Cheyenne was spoken by the Tse-tsehese-staestse proper and Suhtai was spoken by the So?taa?e, a related tribal-nation that was incorporated eventually into the Cheyenne. The Arapaho also were close social and cultural neighbors, though strong ties historically were also formed with the Teton Sioux, especially among the Northern Cheyenne. Warfare with other neighbors was constant after about 1800, especially with the Crow, Shoshone, Ute, Pawnee, and Kiowa. After 1854, the Cheyenne fought a series of major battles with the United States military,

  • Indian Education for All Montana State Parks Lesson Plan Madison Buffalo Jump State Park January 2010 (Revised)
    Indian Education for All Montana State Parks Lesson Plan Madison Buffalo Jump State Park January 2010 (revised) Title Buffalo Past and Present Content Areas Social Studies; Writing Grade Level 9th-12th Duration 5 class periods and 5 homework assignments Overview and Objectives This lesson focuses on the historical and contemporary significance of bison to Montana’s tribes and the indigenous peoples of the Northern Plains region. Using Madison Buffalo Jump State Park to begin the discussion of bison’s importance to tribes, this lesson builds upon the purposes bison fulfilled in historical tribal economies, cosmologies, social organization, spiritual practices/beliefs, and relations with other tribes. Understanding these purposes, students will briefly examine the impact of the first “buffalo war,” when in a few decades’ time, Americans facilitated the near extermination of the bison and, in effect, crippled the economies of many tribes and robbed them of this vital component of their cultures and way of life. Students will learn that in spite of profound cultural, economic and spiritual changes that have affected tribes over the last 200 years, bison still remain an important—even essential—aspect of many tribal cultures today. The tribal cultural renaissance of the last few decades has strengthened not only the traditional cultural and spiritual value of bison to these tribes, but has also assisted tribes in their efforts to address some of their current economic, nutritional/health, and societal needs. This lesson seeks to enable students

    Native American Cinema: Indigenous Vision, Domestic Space, and Historical Trauma A thesis presented to the faculty of the College of Fine Arts of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts Jason Mayo May 2013 © 2013 Jason Mayo. All Rights Reserved. 2 The thesis titled Native American cinema: Indigenous Vision, Domestic Space, and Historical Trauma by JASON MAYO has been approved for the School of Film and the College of Fine Arts by Ofer Eliaz Assistant Professor of Film Madeleine Scott Dean, College of Fine Arts 3 Abstract MAYO, JASON, M.A., May 2013, Film Studies Native American cinema: Indigenous vision, domestic space, and historical trauma Director of Thesis: Ofer Eliaz This thesis argues that Native American cinema defines Indigenous identity by utilizing three modes of representation that revolve around the vision of American Indian protagonists, the familial space of American Indian homes, and the figuration of historical trauma through Indigenous temporal structures. Whereas Hollywood media presents American Indians through the vision of white protagonists, positions the camera outside of American Indian homes, and shows historical trauma through Western structures of temporality. 4 Dedication To Ofer Eliaz and all my Cherokee relations 5 Acknowledgements For his steadfast encouragement, patience, and assistance, I thank my thesis advisor, Dr. Ofer Eliaz. Without Dr. Ofer Eliaz’s support, this thesis would not have been possible. My deepest gratitude also goes to Professor Louis-Georges Schwartz, Michael Gillespie, and the director of the School of Film at Ohio University, Steve Ross, who took the time to offer their support, advice, and patience throughout my two years as a graduate student at Ohio University.
