Table of ContentsReviewsAs a child, my father and I were members of the Indian Guides. We wore head feathers in the Maryland suburbs. As a teenager, I was a fan of the Redskins, and I never thought once about the implications. Somehow, I escaped the comic books that Chad Barbour covers here. It's refreshingly painful to gain more insight into how bizarrely screwed up it is to be raised white and male in America.--Ryan Holmberg, editor and translator of Sugiura Shigeru's The Last of the Mohicans Barbour skillfully analyzes the pervasive narrative of 'performing Indianness (while marginalizing Native peoples)' that swells again and again in our most cherished American heroes, slipping cannily as he does so from national history to literary moment, genre to individual title, story to panel. His compelling argument, crafted through exhaustive research, fills a pressing need to examine the trembling, blustering, routinely dangerous nature of white paternalism.--Joe Sutliff Sanders, associate professor in the English Department at Kansas State University and editor of The Comics of Herg When the Lines Are Not So Clear Author InformationChad A. Barbour, Sault Sainte Marie, Michigan, is associate professor of English at Lake Superior State University. His articles have appeared in the International Journal of Comic Art and the Journal of Popular Culture. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
