Americans
Indians are everywhere in American life
It's strange: nearly all that can be named or sold has at some point been named or sold with an Indian word or image. If this seems normal, that's because it has become normal. It started before the United States existed and continues today.
These images are worth a closer look. What if they are not trivial? What if they are instead symbols of great power? What if the stories they tell reveal a buried history-and a country forever fascinated, conflicted, and shaped by its relationship with American Indians? |
