I [author Michael John Witgen] use the term Anishinaabeg for the Great Lakes people also known as the Odawaag, Ojibweg, and Boodewaadamiig even though these same people most often are presented in historical sources as Ottawas, Chippewas, and Potawatomi and are written about generically as Algonquian"--Author's Note on terminology. 311 08$aPrint version: Witgen, Michael John Seeing Red Chapel Hill : Omohundro Institute of Early American History & Culture,c2022 9781469664842 327 $aA nation of settlers -- Indigenous homelands and American homesteads -- The civilizing mission, women's labor, and the mixed-race families of the Old Northwest -- Justice weighed in two scales -- Indigenous land and black lives: the politics of exclusion and privilege in the Old Northwest. 330 $a"Against long odds, the Anishinaabeg resisted removal, retaining thousands of acres of their homeland in what is now Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. Their success rested partly on their roles as sellers of natural resources and buyers of trade goods, which made them key players in the political economy of plunder that drove white settlement and U.S. development in the Old Northwest. But, as Michael Witgen demonstrates, the credit for Native persistence rested with the Anishinaabeg themselves. Outnumbering white settlers well into the nineteenth century, they leveraged their political savvy to advance a dual citizenship that enabled mixed-race tribal members to lay claim to a place in U.S. civil society. Telling the stories of mixed-race traders and missionaries, tribal leaders and territorial governors, Witgen challenges our assumptions about the inevitability of U.S. expansion. Deeply researched and passionately written, Seeing Red will command attention from readers who are invested in the enduring issues of equality, equity, and national belonging at its core"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aPublished by the Omohundro Institute of Early American History and Culture and the University of North Carolina Press 606 $aTerritorial expansion$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01355135 606 $aRace relations$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01086509 606 $aPotawatomi Indians$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01073469 606 $aOttawa Indians$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01049020 606 $aOjibwa Indians$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01045067 606 $aHISTORY / United States / General$2bisacsh 606 $aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Ethnic Studies / American / Native American Studies$2bisacsh 606 $aMultiracial people$zNorthwest, Old$xPolitics and government 606 $aSettler colonialism$xEconomic aspects$zNorthwest, Old 606 $aPotawatomi Indians$zNorthwest, Old 606 $aOttawa Indians$zNorthwest, Old 606 $aOjibwa Indians$zNorthwest, Old 606 $aAlgonquian Indians$xTreaties$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aAlgonquian Indians$zNorthwest, Old$xGovernment relations 606 $aHistory$3(OCoLC)fst01411628 607 $aUnited States$zOld Northwest$2fast 607 $aUnited States$2fast 607 $aUnited States$xRace relations$xHistory$y19th century 607 $aUnited States$xTerritorial expansion 607 $aNorthwest, Old$xHistory$y1775-1865 615 7$aTerritorial expansion. 615 7$aRace relations. 615 7$aPotawatomi Indians. 615 7$aOttawa Indians. 615 7$aOjibwa Indians. 615 7$aHISTORY / United States / General. 615 7$aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Ethnic Studies / American / Native American Studies. 615 0$aMultiracial people$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aSettler colonialism$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aPotawatomi Indians 615 0$aOttawa Indians 615 0$aOjibwa Indians 615 0$aAlgonquian Indians$xTreaties$xHistory 615 0$aAlgonquian Indians$xGovernment relations. 615 7$aHistory. 676 $a305.800973 686 $aSOC021000$aHIS036000$2bisacsh 700 $aWitgen$b Michael J.$01847409 712 02$aOmohundro Institute of Early American History & Culture, 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911026145603321 996 $aSeeing red$94433010 997 $aUNINA
