ABSTRACT:Indiana Magazine of History assistant editor Justin Hawkins examines the transformations in how the IMH has covered Indigenous history from its 1905 founding until the current one-hundred-and-twentieth volume. During its first six decades of publication, the journal evolved from an open celebration of Native American Removal to a silent marginalization of Indigenous history. In the 1970s, new methodologies in the field started to move the journal in a more critical direction, while an added regional focus in the twenty-first century helped to decenter paradigms of settler colonialism and the colonial nation state. Despite this shift, new methods are needed in our pages if we are to write Native history that is not simply a retelling of pioneer stories through a less racist lens. |
