Recasting Commodity and Spectacle in the Indigenous Americas

by HelenGilbert (Editor), HelenGilbert (Editor), Charlotte Gleghorn (Editor), Charlotte Gleghorn (Editor)

Synopsis

Indigenous artists frequently voice concerns over the commodification of their cultures, a process acutely felt by those living with the consequences of colonialism. This timely book examines the ways in which contemporary indigenous peoples in different parts of the Americas have harnessed performance practices to resist imposed stereotypes and shape their own complex identities.
