Letters to the Editor Mar 1, 2004
In sum, following Gerald Vizenor, the "Indian" (and "Native American") was and is the recuperative creation of a Western worldview insecure in its "pioneering" and "progressive" venture of land theft and ethnic cleansing. Professor Ford wonders, "Should the Sioux change their name ... ?" Well, in line with my main argument -- and as a Lakota myself -- "Sioux" was never the name of the Lakota, the Dakota, or the Nakota: all three tribes "changed their name" long ago.
