Fergus M. Bordewich
Killing The White Man's Indian: Reinventing Native Americans at
the End of the Twentieth Century.
New York: Anchor Books, 1996.
Bordewich is encouraged by the newfound self-determination in
reservation Indians in the United States. Native Americans are
beginning to shape their own destinies by calling their own legal
shots under the aegis of tribal sovereignty. White America has yet
to acknowledge the profound effect this will have. For the first
time in a great while, Indian tribes are securing a legal and
lasting place for themselves and their cultures in the modern
world.
