ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Biolsi, Thomas / Zimmermong>anong>, Larry J., PUBLISHER: University of Arizona Press, In Vine Deloria, Jr., in his controversial book "Custer Died for Your Sins," criticized the ong>anong>thropological community for its impersonal dissection of living Native Americong>anong> cultures. Twenty-five years later, ong>anong>thropologists have become more sensitive to Native Americong>anong> concerns, ong>anong>d Indiong>anong> people have become more active in fighting for accurate representations of their cultures. In this collection of essays, Indiong>anong> ong>anong>d non-Indiong>anong> scholars examine how the relationship between ong>anong>thropology ong>anong>d Indiong>anong>s has chong>anong>ged over that quarter-century ong>anong>d show how controversial this issue remains. Practitioners of cultural ong>anong>thropology, archaeology, education, ong>anong>d history provide multiple lenses through which to view how Deloria's message has been interpreted or misinterpreted. Among the contributions are comments on Deloria's criticisms, thoughts on the reburial issue, ong>anong>d views on the ethnographic study of specific peoples. A final contribution by Deloria himself puts the issue of ong>anong>thropologist/Indiong>anong> interaction in the context of the century's end.
