Opis

Elizabeth Cook-Lynn takes academia to task for its much-touted notion that postcoloniality is the current condition of Indian communities in the United States. She finds the argument neither believable nor useful-at best an ivory-tower initiative on the part of influential scholars, at worst a cruel joke. In this fin de career retrospective, Cook-Lynn gathers evidence that American Indians remain among the most colonized people in the modern world, mired in poverty and disenfranchised both socially and politically.
