No Customer Reviews
Drama. Native American Studies. This collection of five plays portrays the complex issues that arise when mixed-blood American Indian characters confront traditional Native beliefs. It shows how legislated and internalized racism has ravaged human relationships and created divisive struggles within Native American families and communities. The title play, Grandchildren of the Buffalo Soldiers, examines the lingering effects of colonial exploitation of tensions between African American and Native American people in the nineteenth century. All of Yellow Robe's plays meditate on the returning to home, to community, and how the matter of belonging is a privilege. William S. Yellow Robe, Jr. is an Assiniboine playwright, director, poet, actor, writer, and educator from the Fort Peck Indian Reservation, located in northeastern Montana.
