This book addresses these questions within the context of one of the most difficult and transformative periods in American Indian history. From the late nineteenth century through the 1920s, the U.S. government sought to eradicate practices of music on reservations and to carefully manage musical productions in Indian boarding schools as part of its campaign to assimilate American Indians and liquidate the remainder of tribal lands. At the same time, American Indian singers, dancers, and musicians successfully resisted and manipulated those same federal policy initiatives through their musical performances." "In this innovative study, John W. Troutman examines the politics of music by American Indians on reservations, in the boarding schools, and in public theaters and other music venues. He argues that music served American Indians and non-Indians alike as a unique means to negotiate, challenge, or fortify the lines of citizenship, Indianness, and whiteness prevalent in U.S. culture and politics in this era." "Music provided inventive political opportunities for Native peoples. On their reservations, the Lakotas manipulated concepts of U.S. citizenship and patriotism to reinvigorate and innovate their social dances, despite the dance bans blanketing Indian Country. At Carlisle Indian School, teachers and bandmasters linked musical practice to Americanness, using music to "kill the Indian [and] save the man." Students, however, created their own meaning from their music, often reinforcing their tribal and Native identities. Finally, many former students, armed with saxophones, violins, or operatic vocal training, formed their own "all Indian" tribal bands and quartets and traversed the country, challenging the oppressive climate of federal Indian policy and engaging the market economy on their own terms." "While recent scholarship has offered new insights into the experiences of "show Indians" and evolving powwow traditions, Indian Blues is the first book to explore the polyphony of Native music practices and their relationship to federal Indian policy in this important period of American Indian history."--BOOK JACKET.
