500 "... I [author Michael John Witgen] use the term
Anishinaabeg for the Great Lakes people also known as the
Odawaag, Ojibweg, and Boodewaadamiig even though these
same people most often are presented in historical sources
as Ottawas, Chippewas, and Potawatomi and are written
about generically as Algonquian"--Author's Note on
terminology.
500 Contains appendix: "Summaries of select treaties between
the United States and Indigenous nations in the Old
Northwest, 1795-1855."
504 Includes bibliographical references and index.
505 0 A nation of settlers -- Indigenous homelands and American
homesteads -- The civilizing mission, women's labor, and
the mixed-race families of the Old Northwest -- Justice
weighed in two scales -- Indigenous land and black lives:
the politics of exclusion and privilege in the Old
Northwest.
520 "Against long odds, the Anishinaabeg resisted removal,
retaining thousands of acres of their homeland in what is
now Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. Their success
rested partly on their roles as sellers of natural
resources and buyers of trade goods, which made them key
players in the political economy of plunder that drove
white settlement and U.S. development in the Old
Northwest. But, as Michael Witgen demonstrates, the credit
for Native persistence rested with the Anishinaabeg
themselves. Outnumbering white settlers well into the
nineteenth century, they leveraged their political savvy
to advance a dual citizenship that enabled mixed-race
tribal members to lay claim to a place in U.S. civil
society. Telling the stories of mixed-race traders and
missionaries, tribal leaders and territorial governors,
Witgen challenges our assumptions about the inevitability
of U.S. expansion. Deeply researched and passionately
written, Seeing Red will command attention from readers
who are invested in the enduring issues of equality,
equity, and national belonging at its core"--|cProvided by
