Discovering Self-Identity and Confronting Racism in the Novel, 'Indian No More' by Charlene Willing McManis and Traci Sorell

Journal Title: Cultural Landscape Insights - Year 2023, Vol 1, Issue 1

Abstract

Indian No More is about the story of a little girl whose identity and world changed circumstantially due to a certain government intervention. Her life of struggle in search of finding her identity in this perplexed world while facing racism is the focus of this article. This entire aspect has been discussed in the article through the four main phases of her life, which can be said to be the turning point. The first part of her life was of an ordinary Indian girl living with her family members in a reservation shelter with her fellow Indian tribes. The second phase of her life was when the United States Congress passed the bill for removing the tribal status of the Umpqua tribe. The third phase of her life was when the government passed the law to settle those tribes in the Urban areas of the United States, where they were dealing with problems like racism. In the final phase, the real character appeared, where she worked with all the challenges and became successful in her life.
