Indian Boarding Schools, Native American Anthropologists, and the Race to Preserve Indigenous Cultures

Nathan Sowry

Sowry examines how some Native American students from the boarding school system, with its forced assimilationist education, became key cultural informants for anthropologists conducting fieldwork during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Follows the forced indoctrination of Native American students and then details how each of them embraced, documented, and preserved their Native cultures rather than abandoning their heritage.
