Dissertation
A Sovereign People: Politics, Power, and Property Among the Shawnees, 1650-1870
2014
Overview
\"A Sovereign People\" explores the importance of the autonomy of Shawnee bands in the context of politics, power, and property from 1650 to 1870. During this time, the Shawnee diaspora forced village-based bands to scatter throughout eastern North America. These Native groups operated as independent sovereign entities in dealing with the challenges generated by imperial competition, Euro-American settlement, and looming revolution. After the Indian Removal Act, the bands faced pressures to create unified responses. Yet, throughout the disruptive and destructive processes that dispossessed the Natives in Kansas, the Shawnee bands preserved the desire for sovereignty that had always enabled their survival.
