Based on the premise that literature plays an impor- tant role in disrupting the exercise of power and written against the backdrop of critical whiteness studies, it investigates how the playwright intervenes in the assumptions about whiteness as a static privilege-granting category and system of dominance.

The latter have involved “a radical dismantling of European codes and a postcolonial subversion and appropriation of the dominant European discourses,” claims Helen Tiffin (95). Interrogating these discourses and the social context in which healthy social interactions between white and indigenous people are impeded because of the presupposed foundation of appar- ently undislocatable binary oppositions upon which the logic of coloniality stands, literary engagement of indigenous population can be seen as an integral part of an organised protest against colonialist authority. In a Canadian context, Armand Garnet Ruffo (1997) argues that Native literature parallels and mirrors the polit- ical resurgence of indigenous people. In a US context, several theorists and artists have made similar claims, seeing literary activism as a way of contesting prevailing power structures. For example, an activist and playwright Monique Mojica has stated that Native American artists offer “an alternative view, the possibility of another interpretation of ‘historical facts’ and the validation of Native American experiences and images” (1). Constituting an intercultural encounter for the white reader and intervening in the institutional and historical processes that have enabled and maintained the dominant position of those identified as white on the one hand, and the concom- itant political, economic, and cultural subordination of indigenous population on the other, Native American literature articulates discourses of “conscious antag- onists,” as Edward Said refers to those who, “compelled by the system to play subordinate roles within it,” react by disrupting it (335). Performing this function, it has earned the label “literature with a purpose,” which – according to the Cher- okee scholar Jace Weaver – can be applied to all postcolonial literatures (44). Here it is relevant to mention that, despite sharing affinities with other postcolonial literatures in that it has also “emerged out of the experience of colonization” and asserted itself by “foregrounding the tension with the imperial power” and by “em- phasising the differences from the assumptions of the imperial Centre” (Ashcroft, Griffiths, and Tiffin 2), the status of Native American literature remains unclear in the postcolonial scholarship.1 In this study, I focus on the plays Body Indian and Foghorn by Hanay Geiog- amah, a Kiowa-Delaware political activist and one of the most prominent con- temporary Native American playwrights. My reading is not concerned with the ‘literariness’ as a principal object of study and appreciation; rather, it is framed by 1 Several non-Native scholars have expressed scepticism towards the applicability of the term ‘post- colonial’ to both Native Americans’ life and literature (Krupat 73). In Arnold Krupat’s view, this is for the simple reason that “there is not yet a ‘post-’ to the colonial status of Native Americans (Ibid.). Acta_Neophilologica_2020_FINAL.indd 6 26. 11. 2020 14:23:55 Unsettling the Binarisms of Dominant Discourse in Hanay Geiogamah’s Plays... 7 an interest in how the two plays function as “a form of public good” (Gonzales and Agostini xvi) or what David Carter and Kay Ferres define as “the public life of literature” (140). Drawing on some of the issues taken up by critical whiteness theory, the study aims to show how the playwright intervenes in the controlling discourses of colonialism that have retained the American indigenous population in the web of hegemonic power. I argue that one of the main textual devices that Geiogamah employs to do what he sees as “the challenging task of the new Native American theatre” (Geiogamah 2000, 163) is humour. For Native Americans, the essential theatrical impulse has a long history. Per- formance was integrated into many aspects of Native cultural life long before the invasion of Europeans. Ceremonies performed for well-being and protection and to celebrate or mourn life-cycles included the theatrical elements of storytell- ing, song, dance and costume to create the emotional and spiritual impact. To- day, many Native American playwrights draw upon traditional tribal performance practices and characters to inform their work. First plays by a Native American were published between the late 1920s and early 1950s by the Cherokee play- wright Lynn Riggs.2 Dealing with the various forms of extreme racism inflicted upon the Cherokee during the transformation of Indian Territory to Oklahoma’s statehood, Riggs’s plays foreshadow the concerns explored by Native American playwrights a few decades later, such as representation, authenticity, and cultural and political empowerment of indigenous population.

Those books, piled on my desk, floor, and bedside table, have variously angered, inspired, and enlightened me as I worked my way through this project, but I am grateful for their company and conversation. Luckily, I had a number of generous professors who kept funneling these books my way and enthusiastically discussed them with me, not least of which were the members of my dissertation committee. James Cox, my director, offered unflagging enthusiasm and guidance and asked just the right questions to push me into new areas of inquiry.

    NATIVE AMERICAN THEATER: A CONCISE HISTORY SIDONÍ LÓPEZ Universidad Internacional de La Rioja [email protected] HANANE BENALI American University of the Middle East [email protected] 93 1. Introduction Although contemporary Native American1 theater emerged during the second half of the 20th century, its origins draw from an extensive oral tradition which was mainly based on Indian traditional storytelling. Stories of all kinds about Native tribes and cultures were passed down from generation to generation for purposes of education, entertainment and the preservation of the Native American cultural heritage. Most of these stories were performed and dramatized by Indian storytellers for their audiences, suggesting the first literary, historical and cultural antecedents of contemporary Native American theater. When American Indian writing emerged in the 18th century, Native Americans went from telling stories to writing them down, using different literary genres, such as the novel, poetry, autobiography and short story. However, indigenous theater was absent in Native writing during this period and the multiple reasons given for this nonexistence usually reflect a long history of silencing, discrimination, oppression and displacement exercised towards the genre. Therefore, it was not until the second half of the 20th century that Native American playwrights and various indigenous theater companies started to write and produce Native plays, leading to the emergence of contemporary Native American drama. The proliferation of Native theater plays continued well into the 21st century with scholarship starting to be miscelánea: a journal of english and american studies 54 (2016): pp. 93-111 ISSN: 1137-6368 Sidoní López prominent in the field, paving the way for the consolidation of a diverse, vibrant and evolving genre that continues to expand, making itself more available to both Native and non-Native audiences.

  • These Hills, This Trail: Cherokee Outdoor Historical Drama and The
    THESE HILLS, THIS TRAIL: CHEROKEE OUTDOOR HISTORICAL DRAMA AND THE POWER OF CHANGE/CHANGE OF POWER by CHARLES ADRON FARRIS III (Under the Direction of Marla Carlson and Jace Weaver) ABSTRACT This dissertation compares the historical development of the Cherokee Historical Association’s (CHA) Unto These Hills (1950) in Cherokee, North Carolina, and the Cherokee Heritage Center’s (CHC) The Trail of Tears (1968) in Tahlequah, Oklahoma. Unto These Hills and The Trail of Tears were originally commissioned to commemorate the survivability of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians (EBCI) and the Cherokee Nation (CN) in light of nineteenth- century Euramerican acts of deracination and transculturation. Kermit Hunter, a white southern American playwright, wrote both dramas to attract tourists to the locations of two of America’s greatest events. Hunter’s scripts are littered, however, with misleading historical narratives that tend to indulge Euramerican jingoistic sympathies rather than commemorate the Cherokees’ survivability. It wasn’t until 2006/1995 that the CHA in North Carolina and the CHC in Oklahoma proactively shelved Hunter’s dramas, replacing them with historically “accurate” and culturally sensitive versions. Since the initial shelving of Hunter’s scripts, Unto These Hills and The Trail of Tears have undergone substantial changes, almost on a yearly basis. Artists have worked to correct the romanticized notions of Cherokee-Euramerican history in the dramas, replacing problematic information with more accurate and culturally specific material. Such modification has been and continues to be a tricky endeavor: the process of improvement has triggered mixed reviews from touristic audiences and from within Cherokee communities themselves.

Thompson A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Anthropology Chapel Hill 2009 Approved by: Valerie Lambert Michael Lambert Patricia Sawin Christopher Nelson John Jackson © 2009 Matthew D. Thompson ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Matthew D. Thompson Staging “the Drama”: The continuing importance of cultural tourism in the gaming era (Under the direction of Valerie Lambert, Michael Lambert, Patricia Sawin, Christopher Nelson, and John Jackson) Issues of indigenous self-representation are of major concern for U.S. tribal nations. For the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians (EBCI) self-representation has meant refashioning the way they are portrayed in a major theatrical production on their reservation. My dissertation investigates the reinvention of the outdoor drama Unto These Hills, produced 1950-2004 in Cherokee, North Carolina, by the White dominated Cherokee Historical Association (CHA) and the role of the EBCI in exerting tribal sovereignty over the formerly non-Indian controlled institutions which produce representations of their history and culture for tourists. In 2006, under Cherokee management, the fifty-seven year old drama was transformed into Unto These Hills… a Retelling. My research explores the social conflicts, negotiations, creative processes and performances surrounding this change as the tribe steered its most public representation of the past from a narrative of accommodation to one of Cherokee nationalism.

    NATIONAL MEDAL OF ARTS | NATIONAL HISTORIC LANDMARK NATIVE AMERICAN CONNECTIONS AT JACOB’S PILLOW A summary of the intersections between the Pillow and Indigenous peoples and traditions of the Americas, compiled by Jacob’s Pillow Director of Preservation Norton Owen. According to the chapter titled “Indians in Becket” by Pillow neighbor Ruth I. Derby in A Bicentennial History of Becket, the Mohicans camped in Becket during the summer months, hunting moose, deer, and bear, as well as otter, raccoons, beaver, foxes, and other small fur-bearing animals. A later Becket history identified descendants of the Muckhaneek, Narragansett, and Pequot tribes. They collected and dried food for the winter and skins for clothing. They also made maple syrup and sugar and taught settlers to do this. They sold the land to settlers in 1736, though the plans weren’t accurate and Chief Konkapot was upset that traditional hunting grounds were inadvertently included in the property transfer. This discrepancy was later settled with an additional payment that covered all lands west of the Westfield River. There are reportedly Indian burial grounds off George Carter Road, near Jacob’s Pillow. 1933 – During its first summer of Pillow performances, the repertory of Ted Shawn and His Men Dancers includes the Osage-Pawnee Dance of Greeting and a Shawn solo, Invocation to the Thunderbird. 1934 – Ted Shawn revives his Hopi Indian Eagle Dance, originally part of his full-length 1923 production, Feather of the Dawn. A new group work, Ponca Indian Dance, is presented for the first time. 1936 – The first act of a full-evening work, O Libertad!, opens with a section titled Noche Triste de Moctezuma and also includes other sections about Native Americans of the Southwest.

  • American Indian Theatre and Performance
    American Indian Theatre and Performance By Courtney Elkin Mohler, Ph.D. Santa Clara University Despite centuries of political obstacles, restrictive policies, and United States cultural imperialism, a robust and vibrant American Indian theatre exists today. There are multiple definitions of what comprises American Indian theatre, drama and performance, stemming from multiple historical, political and traditional perspectives; contemporary dramatists and performers grapple with these ranging definitions and perspectives through their plays and productions. Some of the current cultural, political and artistic issues associated with American Indian theatre include topics such as representation, authenticity, cultural empowerment, and practical production concerns. Defining the Genre There are multiple issues surrounding the genre of American Indian theatre and its history; the boundaries and limits of the form are instable and often contested by Indian and non-Indian theatre specialists alike. Some theatre historians include plays by non-Native writers that represent Indians, while others define the genre as plays written by American Indian playwrights, performed by American Indian actors, for American Indian audiences. There are similar debates over periodization. Some scholars feel that traditional performance practices that were indispensible to Native cultural life and predate European contact should be included in, or even, define the genre; others mainly focus on plays derived partially 1 through hybrid cultural experience, placing

    Performing Memory, Transforming Time History and Indigenous North American Drama Birgit Däwes It is important to . connect our stories of the past to our future. Our future is the generations who will take their stories out into the world of the new millennium and who will create a new legacy for their future generations. This is the “Persistence of Memory.” —Muriel Miguel, “Director’s Notes on Persistence of Memory” I Indigenous drama and performance constitute—along with storytell- ing—the oldest literary genre in the Americas.1 Ranging from the ancient Kwakiutl mystery plays to the Hopi clown dances, performa- tive traditions have been primary modes of cultural expression all across the continent. In the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries, some of these traditions were transformed into pan-tribal and more secular art forms, such as pow wows, pageants, or scripted plays, which also incorporated European American and Asian theatrical styles. When Lynn Riggs gained mainstream popularity in the 1930s (albeit largely without reference to his Cherokee heritage) and the first pageants were performed at the Six Nations Reserve’s Forest 1 © 2013 State University of New York Press, Albany SP_DAW_Ch 00_001-016.indd 1 9/28/12 1:51 PM 2 Birgit Däwes Theatre in Ontario, Canada, in the 1940s, the path was paved for a contemporary Native theatre movement. And this movement is well underway. There are currently over 250 published and far over 600 unpublished plays by some 250 Native American and First Nations playwrights and theatre groups on the North American market.2 Furthermore, the access to an abundance of material is increasing- ly improving: Mimi Gisolfi D’Aponte’s pioneer collection of Native American plays, Seventh Generation (1999), was followed by eight other anthologies dedicated exclusively to indigenous plays,3 and Alexander Street Press’s North American Indian Drama, a digital full- text collection of more than 200 indigenous plays, is even searchable by semantic parameters.
