对这些家庭关系的更多破坏着眼于非土著干预美国土著家庭生活的悠久历史。它坚持认为,教育和抚养土著儿童的愿望在20世纪70年代达到顶峰,当时有四分之一的美国土著青年离开了他们的家庭和国家。这篇文章认为,土著妇女活动家是解决危机的核心;他们发起了一项多方面的议程,以应对土著家庭面临的挑战(根源于殖民主义);她们所倡导的一个框架,使20世纪70年代美国关于女性和激进主义的现有叙述复杂化。
More Destruction to These Family Ties looks at the long history of non-Native intervention in the lives of Native American families. It maintains that the desire to educate and raise indigenous children culminated in the 1970s with a catastrophic quarter of Native American youth living away from their families and nations. This article argues that Native women activists were central to arresting the crisis; that they launched a multifaceted agenda to address challenges (rooted in colonialism) that indigenous families faced; and that they championed a framework that complicates existing narratives of women and activism in the United States during the 1970s.
