This dissertation is an ethnographic exploration of the myriad meanings that underpin Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians traditional arts production. In its presentation, it centers Choctaw voices and ways of knowing. Based on 14 months of Tribal government-approved fieldwork in central Mississippi (2017-2018), the chapters explore how individual experience, communal expectations and relationships, and the influence of regional and global forces all fundamentally shape how Choctaw makers bring their works to life. While a diverse array of material culture types are discussed, the genres that receive the most attention are basketry, traditional clothing, and beadwork. This dissertation explores the importance of change, vibrancy, and emergence in these practices. Chapter 1 presents a reconceptualization of how the process of gathering can be understood as a creative activity, one that is shared across all material types. It also explores how a unique combination of group and individual factors influences makers' growth in their practices. Chapter 2 analyzes the importance of a maker's access to experienced teachers through familial and community connections, but it also emphasizes that a maker's patience and dedication to their craft is central to their skill development. Chapter 3 explores the role of individual makers' creativity in bringing about change and innovation in material culture over time. It takes a close look at some of the technical variation present in contemporary Choctaw arts practices, and examines how people learn or take inspiration from the world around them to develop their personal styles. Finally, Chapter 4 centers Choctaw makers' actions as, in part, expressions of group, individual, and intergenerational cycles. Moreover, it argues that these cycles and art making practices are co-constructed, and give each other meaning.

""This book is a lively and accessible account of the remarkably complex legal and political situation of American Indian tribes and tribal citizens (who are also U.S. citizens) David E. Wilkins and Heidi Kiiwetinepinesiik Stark have provided the g̀o-to' source for a clear yet detailed and sophisticated introduction to tribal soverignty and federal Indian policy. It is a valuable resource both for readers unfamiliar with the subject matter and for readers in Native American studies and related fields, who will appreciate the insightful and original scholarly analysis of the authors."--Thomas Biolsi, University of California at Berkeley" ""American Indian Politics and the American Political System is simply an indispensable compendium of fact and reason on the historical and modern landscape of American Indian law and policy. No teacher or student of American Indian studies, no policymaker in American Indian policy, and no observer of American Indian history and law should do without this book. There is nothing in the field remotely as comprehensive, usable, and balanced as Wilkins and Stark's work."--Matthew L.M. Fletcher, director of the Indigenous Law and Policy Center at Michigan State University College of Law" ""Wilkins has written the first general study of contemporary Indians in the United States from the disciplinary standpoint of political science. His inclusion of legal matters results in sophisticated treatment of many contemporary issues involving Native American governments and the government of the United States and gives readers a good background for understanding other questions. The writing is clear-not a minor matter in such a complex subject--and short case histories are presented, plus links (including websites) to many sources of information."--Choice

Download Cajun and Creole Folktales Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
This teeming compendium of tales assembles and classifies the abundant lore and storytelling prevalent in the French culture of southern Louisiana. This is the largest, most diverse, and best annotated collection of French-language tales ever published in the United States. Side by side are dual-language retellings—the Cajun French and its English translation—along with insightful commentaries. This volume reveals the long and lively heritage of the Louisiana folktale among French Creoles and Cajuns and shows how tale-telling in Louisiana through the years has remained vigorous and constantly changing. Some of the best storytellers of the present day are highlighted in biographical sketches and are identified by some of their best tales. Their repertory includes animal stories, magic stories, jokes, tall tales, Pascal (improvised) stories, and legendary tales—all of them colorful examples of Louisiana narrative at its best. Though greatly transformed since the French arrived on southern soil, the French oral tradition is alive and flourishing today. It is even more complex and varied than has been shown in previous studies, for revealed here are African influences as well as others that have been filtered from America's multicultural mainstream.
