From 1927 to 1957, however, Bacone College changed course and pursued a new strategy of emphasizing the Indian identities of its students and projecting often-romanticized images of Indianness to the non-Indian public in its fund-raising campaigns. Money was funneled back into the school as administrators hired Native American faculty who in turn created innovative curricular programs in music and the art that encouraged their students to explore and develop their Native identities. Through their frequent use of humor and inventive wordplay to reference Indianness--"Indian play"--students articulated the (often contradictory) implications of being educated Indians in mid-twentieth-century America. In this supportive and creative culture, Bacone became an "Indian school," rather than just another "school for Indians." In examining how and why this transformation occurred, Lisa K. Neuman situates the students' Indian play within larger theoretical frameworks of cultural creativity, ideologies of authenticity, and counterhegemonic practices that are central to the fields of Native American and indigenous studies today"-- $c Provided by publisher. 610 20 $a Bacone College $x History. 610 27 $a Bacone College. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00541807 650 0 $a Indians of North America $x Education (Higher) $z Oklahoma. 650 0 $a Indians of North America $z Oklahoma $x Ethnic identity. 650 0 $a Education, Higher $z Oklahoma $x Philosophy. 650 0 $a Indian philosophy $z Oklahoma. 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE / Ethnic Studies / Native American Studies. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a HISTORY / United States / State & Local / Southwest (AZ, NM, OK, TX). $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Education, Higher $x Philosophy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00903083 650 7 $a Indian philosophy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00969168 650 7 $a Indians of North America $x Education (Higher) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00969723 650 7 $a Indians of North America $x Ethnic identity. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00969733 651 7 $a Oklahoma. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205031 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191213021423.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20180104065330.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2146A5FEA36B11E3A3DF8D90DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
