Download or read book 'Injuns!' written by Edward Buscombe and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2006-10-02 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The indispensable sage, fierce enemy, silent sidekick: the role of Native Americans in film has been largely confined to identities defined by the “white” perspective. Many studies have analyzed these simplistic stereotypes of Native American cultures in film, but few have looked beyond the Hollywood Western for further examples. Distinguished film scholar Edward Buscombe offers here an incisive study that examines cinematic depictions of Native Americans from a global perspective. Buscombe opens with a historical survey of American Westerns and their controversial portrayals of Native Americans: the wild redmen of nineteenth-century Wild West shows, the more sympathetic depictions of Native Americans in early Westerns, and the shift in the American film industry in the 1920s to hostile characterizations of Indians. Questioning the implicit assumptions of prevailing critiques, Buscombe looks abroad to reveal a distinctly different portrait of Native Americans. He focuses on the lesser known Westerns made in Germany—such as East Germany’s Indianerfilme, in which Native Americans were Third World freedom fighters battling against Yankee imperialists—as well as the films based on the novels of nineteenth-century German writer Karl May. These alternative portrayals of Native Americans offer a vastly different view of their cultural position in American society. Buscombe offers nothing less than a wholly original and readable account of the cultural images of Native Americans through history andaround the globe, revealing new and complex issues in our understanding of how oppressed peoples have been represented in mass culture.

Download or read book Injun written by Jordan Abel and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Award-winning Nisga'a poet Jordan Abel's third collection, Injun, is a long poem about racism and the representation of indigenous peoples. Composed of text found in western novels published between 1840 and 1950 - the heyday of pulp publishing and a period of unfettered colonialism in North America - Injun then uses erasure, pastiche, and a focused poetics to create a visually striking response to the western genre. After compiling the online text of 91 of these now public-domain novels into one gargantuan document, Abel used his word processor's "Find" function to search for the word "injun." The 509 results were used as a study in context: How was this word deployed? What surrounded it? What was left over once that word was removed? Abel then cut up the sentences into clusters of three to five words and rearranged them into the long poem that is Injun. The book contains the poem as well as peripheral material that will help the reader to replicate, intuitively, some of the conceptual processes that went into composing the poem. Though it has been phased out of use in our "post-racial" society, the word "injun" is peppered throughout pulp western novels. Injun retraces, defaces, and effaces the use of this word as a colonial and racial marker. While the subject matter of the source text is clearly problematic, the textual explorations in Injun help to destabilize the colonial image of the "Indian" in the source novels, the western genre as a whole, and the Western canon.

Book Synopsis The Hardly Boys by : Tunder Ramsnips
Download or read book The Hardly Boys written by Tunder Ramsnips and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2010-04-13 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Hardly Boys: Volume 1 is a collection of short stories set in the early 1980s in Asheville, North Carolina, with two eleven-year-old boys, Tunder and Mark, as would-be detectives. Combining 80s nostalgia with Maxwell Smart antics, the two boys "solve" 12 mysteries'from busting up a diabolical gang of jewel thieves to outwitting Scottish serial killers'and by doing so convince themselves that they're every bit as talented as the Hardy Boys they've read about, characters created by Franklin W. Dixon. Tunder narrates each story as an adult writing his older sister, and it's apparent that he's never outgrown his smugness, conceit or naïveté. With the southern dialect, banter and charm of Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer, The Hardly Boys: Volume 1 will entertain adults and teenagers who enjoy southern satire and the uncomplicated bonds of childhood best friends.
Book Synopsis BEAUTY...IN SPITE OF IT ALL... by : Autumn Wind Dancing Daystar
Download or read book BEAUTY...IN SPITE OF IT ALL... written by Autumn Wind Dancing Daystar and published by Autumn Wind Dancing Daystar. This book was released on 2024-10-05 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Autumn Wind Dancing Daystar''s roots run deep in the soil of an Indigenous reservation in Alberta, Canada. Growing up as a third-generation survivor of residential schools, her upbringing was a tapestry woven with stories of resilience and strength. With a hereditary chief for a grandfather and a father who served in WWII, she was raised with the spirit of a warrior and the wisdom of generations past. From a young age, her parents instilled in her a love for writing, a passion that lay dormant until later in life when she realized it was her true calling. She poured herself into crafting this book with every fiber of her being, driven by a desire to share her truth with the world. While her academic achievements—a BA in Political Science from the University of Lethbridge and a Master''s Degree in Leadership & Administration from Gonzaga University—have undoubtedly shaped her perspective, the ancestral wisdom passed down through generations forms the heartbeat of her message. Autumn Wind Dancing''s educational journey was marked by challenges and triumphs. Despite the absence of a high school on the reservation during her time, she pursued her studies, facing the "culture shock" of transitioning to city life for high school. Although she initially left high school in grade 12, the support and belief of a Mormon guidance counselor led her back to finish and pursue a university education. Around a decade ago, Autumn found solace and truth in the teachings of The Book of Mormon upon joining the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Its profound message resonated with her, reflecting the essence of humanity across time. As she embraced her new faith, she found a sense of belonging and purpose. Her name, Autumn Wind Dancing, carries the echoes of her Plains Cree heritage, bestowed upon her by elders with deep significance. In a symbolic act of reclaiming identity, she legally adopted her traditional Cree name under Article 17 of the Truth & Reconciliation Call To Action, honoring her roots and journey towards reconciliation. writing, a passion that lay dormant until later in life when she realized it was her true calling.
