Native American identity  

Definición

  • A simple definition of identity is “the name we call ourselves.” Yet things are inevitably more complicated than that, for identity is both externally imposed and internally ascribed; identity claims involve individual agency yet exist within a larger sociohistorical context. Claiming a Native American identity, as with all racial/ethnic identities, is more contested, complex, and constrained by context than the claiming of a White ethnic identity.
