Contemporary indigenous people in North America confront a unique predicament. As legal and diplomatic practice in the early twenty first century returns to the recognition of their status as citizens of historic sovereign nations, popular culture continues to depict them as cultural minorities on the par with other ethnic Americans. This popular misperception of indigeneity as culture rather than as a historically developed political status sustains the myth of America as a refuge to the world's immigrants and a home to successful multicultural democracies. But it fundamentally misrepresents indigenous people who have experienced a history of colonization rather than a tradition of immigration on the continent. Contemporary indigenous cultural production is caught up in this phenomenon of multicultural misrecognition as well. The current flowering of indigenous literature, cinema, and visual arts is typically taken as evidence that Canada and the United States have successfully broken with their colonial pasts to become thriving nations of many cultures, where Native Americans, along other minorities, enjoy full freedom to represent their cultural difference"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aIndian arts$zNorth America 606 $aArts and society$zUnited States 606 $aArts and society$zCanada 606 $aIndians of North America$xIntellectual life 606 $aIndians of North America$zCanada$xIntellectual life 607 $aUnited States$xEthnic relations 607 $aCanada$xEthnic relations 615 0$aIndian arts 615 0$aArts and society 615 0$aArts and society 615 0$aIndians of North America$xIntellectual life. 615 0$aIndians of North America$xIntellectual life. 676 $a704.03/97 686 $aART041000$aLIT004060$aSOC021000$2bisacsh 700 $aSiebert$b Monika$f1965-$01545159 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910787446803321 996 $aIndians playing Indian$93799947 997 $aUNINA
