  • Where the Salmon Run: the Life and Legacy of Billy Frank Jr
    LEGACY PROJECT A century-old feud over tribal fishing ignited brawls along Northwest rivers in the 1960s. Roughed up, belittled, and handcuffed on the banks of the Nisqually River, Billy Frank Jr. emerged as one of the most influential Indians in modern history. Inspired by his father and his heritage, the elder united rivals and survived personal trials in his long career to protect salmon and restore the environment.

Comics to build exact replicas of the 1966 TV Show Batmobile On January 12th, 1966, the original Batman television series that featured Adam West as Batman and Burt Ward as Robin hit the television screens. A year after, a two-year-old Mark Racop vowed that he would someday build the Batmobile on the TV screen before him. Fifteen years later, Racop built his first Batmobile replica, and now he builds 1966 Batmobile replicas for a living. These aren’t model kits, or radio controlled cars–no. Racop’s replicas are full-scale, driveable cars that have sold all over the world. And D.C. Comics recently authorized Racop to build these 1966 Batmobile replicas as officially licensed collectibles. The news instantly went viral. Fiberglass Freaks found itself featured on over 300 websites and blogs, including Gizmodo.com, Neatorama.com, Boingboing.com, Yahoonews.com, carmiddleeast.com, the Wall Street Journal, and in magazines and newspapers all over the world, like Spiegel, Dupont Registry, Telegraph, FHM, Octane, Firebox, and Gasoline Alley.

  • Remapping the World: Vine Deloria, Jr. and the Ends of Settler Sovereignty
    Remapping the World: Vine Deloria, Jr. and the Ends of Settler Sovereignty A Dissertation SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY David Myer Temin IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Joan Tronto October 2016 © David Temin 2016 i Acknowledgements Perhaps the strangest part of acknowledging others for their part in your dissertation is the knowledge that no thanks could possibly be enough. At Minnesota, I count myself lucky to have worked with professors and fellow graduate students alike who encouraged me to explore ideas, take intellectual risks, and keep an eye on the political stakes of any project I might pursue. That is why I could do a project like this one and still feel emboldened that I had something important and worthwhile to say. To begin, my advisor, Joan Tronto, deserves special thanks. Joan was supportive and generous at every turn, always assuring me that the project was coming together even when I barely could see ahead through the thicket to a clearing. Joan went above and beyond in reading countless drafts, always cheerfully commenting or commiserating and getting me to focus on power and responsibility in whatever debate I had found myself wading into. Joan is a model of intellectual charity and rigor, and I will be attempting to emulate her uncanny ability to cut through the morass of complicated debates for the rest of my academic life. Other committee members also provided crucial support: Nancy Luxon, too, read an endless supply of drafts and memos. She has taught me more about writing and crafting arguments than anyone in my academic career, which has benefited the shape of the dissertation in so many ways.

  • Privilege Narratives and the American Indian Movement
    RED POWER, WHITE DISCOURSE: PRIVILEGE NARRATIVES AND THE AMERICAN INDIAN MOVEMENT, 1973-2015 A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Notre Dame in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by David W. Everson ------------------------------------ Rory McVeigh, Director Graduate Program in Sociology Notre Dame, Indiana July 2017 © Copyright 2017 David W. Everson RED POWER, WHITE DISCOURSE: PRIVILEGE NARRATIVES AND THE AMERICAN INDIAN MOVEMENT, 1973-2015 Abstract by David W. Everson This dissertation investigates the evolution of the American Indian Movement’s (AIM) discursive field from 1973 to 2015 in order to unveil how dominant cultural narratives toward the movement, and American Indians more broadly, have served as an impediment to the alteration of the unequal white-Native racial order. Theoretically, I outline a model of “discursive field shift” to aid in the understanding of how dominant group bystanders discursively reconstruct social movements over time. I lend empirical support to the theoretical model by drawing on an innovative longitudinal research design that matches bystander AIM narratives from the 1970s to 2014/2015. By comparing discourse toward the movement from the same individuals over an approximately forty- year period, I provide evidence of a discursive field shift in the contexts of AIM’s most pronounced activism. In such contexts, AIM’s threat to the “privilege narratives,” or the stories that legitimate extant social inequalities, led to the temporal modification of the movement’s discursive field. This discursive field shift is argued to be an outcome of a sociocultural process whereby disrupted narratives of privilege encouraged the dominant culture’s privileging of narrative in order to more effectively delegitimize AIM grievances.

  • Playing Hippies and Indians: Acts of Cultural Colonization in the Theatre of the American Counterculture
    PLAYING HIPPIES AND INDIANS: ACTS OF CULTURAL COLONIZATION IN THE THEATRE OF THE AMERICAN COUNTERCULTURE Miriam Hahn A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2014 Committee: Jonathan Chambers, Advisor Sheri Wells-Jensen, Graduate Faculty Representative Eileen Cherry-Chandler Scott Magelssen © 2014 Miriam Hahn All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jonathan Chambers, Advisor In this dissertation, I examine the appropriation of Native American cultures and histories in the theatre of the American counterculture of the 1960s and seventies, using the Living Theatre’s Paradise Now, the street theatricals and broadsides of the San Francisco Diggers, and James Rado and Gerome Ragni’s Hair: The American Tribal- Love Rock Musical as my primary case studies. Defining themselves by points of difference from mainstream America and its traditional social and cultural values, counterculturalists often attempted to align themselves with Native Americans in order to express an imagined sense of shared otherness. Representations of Natives on countercultural stages, however, were frequently steeped in stereotype, and they often depicted Native cultures inaccurately, elided significant tribal differences, and relegated Native identity almost wholly to the past, a practice that was particularly problematic in light of concurrent Native rights movements that were actively engaged in bringing national attention to the contemporary issues and injustices Native Americans faced on a daily basis. In my study, I analyze the impulses that might have led counterculturalists to appropriate Native culture during this period, highlighting some of the ways in which such appropriations played out in Paradise Now and Hair, as well as on the streets of San Francisco’s Haight-Ashbury district.
