Selling the Indian: Commercializing and Appropriating American Indian Cultures
Selling the Indian: Commercializing and Appropriating American Indian Cultures
Editorial Reviews
Simon J. Ortiz
"Will be helpful in bringing about an understanding of how the public's perception of Native peoples is constructed."
Book Description
Eight original contributions consider the selling of American Indian culture and how it affects the Native community. These articles show that the commercialization and appropriation of American Indian cultures have been persistent practices of American society over the last century, constituting a form of cultural imperialism that could contribute to the destruction of American Indian culture and identity.
