Annotated Bibliography<\/p>\n
* Negotiators of Change<\/em>\u00a0is a collection of essays that incorporates ten tribal groups including the \u00a0\u00a0Cherokee, Iroquois and Navajo. In addition, this scholarship includes well less known tribes such as the Yakima, Ute, and Pima-Maricopa. This book will be a unique source because it argues that Native American women lost their power as European colonization expanded. Lastly, the social construction of women\u2019s roles transforms motherhood and gender ideologies within the context.<\/p>\n * The book Sex, Love, Race<\/em>\u00a0will provide me with a historical foundation about interracial marriages and multiracial children. The collection of essays are from younger and well-known scholars. These researchers seek to probe why and how the specter of sex and race crossed the boundaries and felt threatening towards Americans. The essays centered on Indians, Europeans and Africans to twentieth-century social scientists\u2019 fascination with multiracial relationships. Other themes such regions, races, ethnicities, and sexual orientations are incorporated in the essays. Overall, there is an overlap between racial, ethnic, and sexual identities in America.<\/p>\n Aubert, Guillaume. 2004. “The Blood of France: Race and Purity of Blood in the French Atlantic World<\/em>.”\u00a0The William and Mary Quarterly\u00a0Third Series 61.3: 439-78. (Article)<\/p>\n *By the end of the 18th<\/sup> century, French aristocrats began to disapprove of French-Indian and French-African relationships. These correspondences represented a form of dishonor which threatened the pure blood of the French noble colonial population. Furthermore, the article goes into details about political and economic alliances between Frenchmen and Native tribes.<\/p>\n Barbara Fields. 1990. \u201cIdeology and Race in American History<\/em>,\u201d in\u00a0Region, Race, and Reconstruction: Essays in Honor of C. Vann Woodward<\/em>.<\/em> Ed. Morgan J. Koussar and James McPherson (New York: Oxford University Press, 1982, 143-177); \u201cSlavery, Race and Ideology in the United States of America,\u201d\u00a0New Left Review<\/em>\u00a0<\/em>181. 95-118. (Essay)<\/p>\n * In Barbara Fields\u2019 essay \u201cIdeology and Race in American History<\/em>\u201d she pinpoints how historians have approached race and racism. This work analyzes how race is not a physical trait but a social construct opposing differences. It is important to include this in my historiography because French-Indian relationships were acceptable during the 1600s. Throughout the essay, Fields highlighted the example of race not developing when Europeans first encountered Africa. It was over time, that questions were raised about the morality of Africans being sold as chattel during the industrial Revolution.\u00a0 In conclusion, I want to include Fields ideology about how race was socially constructed differently across space and time.<\/p>\n Barr, Juliana. 2007. Peace Came in the Form of a Woman: Indians and Spaniards in the Texas Boarderlands<\/em>. Chapel Hill: Published in association with the William P. Clements Center for Southwest Studies, Southern Methodist University, by the University of North Carolina Press. (Book)<\/p>\n * Compared to Negotiators of Change<\/em>, Julian Barr\u2019s Peace came in the Form of a Woman<\/em> writes about how Indians were in a position of power whole Europeans were forced to accommodate. Between the years of 1690s and 1780s, Indian tribes such as the Caddos, Apaches, Payayas, Karankawas, Wichitas, and Comanches formed relationships with Spaniards in Texas. In my paper, I want to include Barr\u2019s argument about Indians retaining control over their territories while controlling the Spaniards. Instead of focusing on race, Barr focuses on settlement and intermarriage, mission life, warfare, diplomacy, and captivity.<\/p>\n Devens, Carol. 1992. \u201cCountering Colonization: Native American Women and Great Lakes Missions, 1630-1990<\/em>.\u201d Berkeley, Calif.: University of California Press. (Book)<\/p>\n * Carol Devens\u2019 well documented Countering Colonization<\/em> provides a revisionary history of Native American women. There is an emphasis in the book that Indian women were vital to their communities and shaped the encounter between Native American and white civilians. The book will provide my paper with a perspective of Indian women preserving their culture. Therefore, Devens acknowledge these women as historical significant actors. Although women\u2019s voices have been silent their actions have been preserved in missionary letters and reports. While some Indian men accepted religious teachings, many women felt that their lives and beliefs were threatened. Overall, the book highlights the gender conflicts in Native American communities.<\/p>\n Marshall, C. E. 1939. \u201cThe Birth of the Mestizo in New Spain<\/em>,\u201d in The Hispanic American Historical Review (Duke University Press); Vol. 19, No.2, 161-184. (Article)<\/p>\n * The Birth of the Mestizo in New Spain<\/em> details the origins of the interracial marriages between Indians and Spaniards. This article will be useful because in my historiography, I will include the interracial marriages between Spaniards and Indian women. The Spanish empire was unique because it was inhabited by race of many colors. Overall, the three centuries of Spanish rule had a population of over three million mix blood individuals as an outcome of mixed racial marriages.<\/p>\n Nash, Gary B. 1995. “The Hidden History of Mestizo America<\/em>.”\u00a0The Journal of American History<\/em>\u00a082 (3): 941-964. (Article)<\/p>\n * Gary Nash\u2019s article The Hidden History of Mestizo America centers on the history of interracial marriage in the United States. One example provided by Nash was the marriage between John Role and Pocahontas who was the daughter of King Powhatan. The themes of mixed-race identity, progeny classifications, and prohibitions of \u00a0racial intermarriage are addressed in the article.<\/p>\n Sleeper-Smith, Susan. 2001. Indian Women and French Men: Rethinking Cultural Encounter in the Western Great Lakes<\/em>. Amherst: University of Massachusetts Press. (Book)<\/p>\n * The book is centered in the region of the Great Lakes during the lucrative fur trade throughout the colonial period. I will be able to draw from the cultural as well as economic exchange between native and European peoples. This is an important and well-researched study because it focuses on Indian women who married French men. These is an overlooked topic which mainly focuses on the men\u2019s perspective. But in Sleeper\u2019s book the role played by Indian women were highlighted especially, since the mixed-blood kinship unified Indian and French societies. More importantly, Indian women served as brokers between the two worlds. Indian women and French men who married helped connect the Great Lakes which expanded the transatlantic economy.<\/p>\n Van Kirk, Sylvia. 1983. \u201cMany Tender Ties: Women in Fur-trade Society, 1670-1870<\/em>.\u201d Norman: University of Oklahoma Press. (Book)<\/p>\n * This book is going to be a useful resource because it emphasizes the sexual encounters between Indian women and the fur traders of the North West and Hudson’s Bay Companies. Van Kirk\u2019s work illuminates the Indian-white marriages which resulted in warm and enduring family unions. This is a profound book because the interracial marriages were profoundly altered when white Euro-women were sent in the 1820s and 1830s.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Suzanna Melendez 10\/16\/2016 Annotated Bibliography Negotiators of Change: Historical Perspective of Native American Women.
