Black, White, and Indian Race and the Unmaking of an American Family Hardcover - 2005
by Claudio Saunt
Summary
Deceit, compromise, and betrayal were the painful costs of becoming American for many families. For people of Indian, African, and European descent living in the newly formed United States, the most personal and emotional choices--to honor a friendship or pursue an intimate relationship--wereoften necessarily guided by the harsh economic realities imposed by the country's racial hierarchy. Few families in American history embody this struggle to survive the pervasive onslaught of racism more than the Graysons.Like many other residents of the eighteenth-century Native American South, where Black-Indian relations bore little social stigma, Katy Grayson and her brother William--both Creek Indians--had children with partners of African descent. As the plantation economy began to spread across their nativeland soon after the birth of the American republic, however, Katy abandoned her black partner and children to marry a Scottish-Creek man...
First line
Alabama and Georgia seemingly cannot escape their histories.

Oxford University Press, 2005-04-21. Hardcover. Like New. 9x6x1. Hardcover and dust jacket. Good binding and cover. Clean, unmarked pages. xii, 300 p., ill., 24 cm. "The intersections between Native American history and the history of race in America are not always clear. Too often fear and fantasy obscure our memory and our vision. This compelling story of human beings struggling to survive and make lives for themselves and their families shines a fascinating light on the many places where red and black and white overlapped, blurred, and made history. This is a very important book." - Frederick E. Hoxie, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
