Description

This work has been designed to try to shock adults into realizing that the world of contemporary American infants and young children is saturated with inappropriate images of Indians.
Infants and young children internalize distorted images they learn about American Indians not only during the twin peaks of Columbus Day and Thanksgiving| but also at seasonal sporting events| when players and fans don ersatz headdresses and sacrilegious paint to act out their version of braves and chiefs.
