This study of the novels of the Red Power movement of the 1960s and '70s challenges the claim that Red Power thinking relied on romantic longings for a pure indigenous past and culture. Rather, the author shows that the movement engaged historical memory and oral tradition to produce more enabling knowledge of Native lives and possibilities.
