Description and Table of Contents
Description
The author argues that the defeat of the Sioux at Wounded Knee in 1890 resolved the problem as to what to do with the American Indians and marked the start of the evolution of white America's policies: separation, concentration and Americanization. Starting with the positions advocated by various groups in colonial America, Weeks explores the historical forces that led to the widespread acceptance of separation.
