Shoot the Indian: Media, Misperception and Native Truth

0/5 ( ratings)

"Shoot the Indian" is a provocative look at media and politics written by leading Native American journalists, academics and leaders. This book will change the way you perceive Native America, particularly if all your know about Indians is what you learned from the media. Published in 2007 by the American Indian Policy & Media Initiative, it examines the impact of the news media coverage with U.S. Indian policy. Senator Ben Nighthorse Campbell said of the Initiative, "The founding meeting focused on how to build and communicate an effective defense of historic truths, and the legal and self-governance rights of tribal peoples in the United States." Tim Johnson, Associate Director of the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Indian, said, "'Shoot the Indian' reveals the historic roots of contemporary rhetoric in media and government about Native Americans; it's a strategic guide that colleges, tribal nations and anyone who cares about Native America should have in their libraries."
