Fitzgerald studies the social construction of racial and ethnic identity in <em>Beyond White Ethnicity<\/em>. <strong>Fitzgerald focuses on Native Americans, who despite a previously unacknowledged and uncelebrated background, are embracing and reclaiming their heritage in their everyday lives.<\/strong> Focusing on the purpose, process, and problems of this reclamation, Fitzgerald&#8217;s research provides an understanding of these issues. She also exposes how institutional power relations are racialized and how race is a social and political construction, and she helps us understand larger cultural transformations. This insightful collection of research sparks the interest of those who study sociology, anthropology, and cultural studies.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Table of Contents<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Reclaimer Narratives: Exposing the Duality of Structure in Identity Formation<\/li>\n<li>Challenging White Hegemony: Reclaimers and the Culture Wars<\/li>\n<li>Reclaimer Practices: Religion, Spirituality, Language, Family, and Food<\/li>\n<li>&#8220;If It Looks Like a Duck&#8221;: Physical Appearance and Reclaimer Identity<\/li>\n<li>&#8220;Wanna-bes&#8221; and &#8220;Indian Police&#8221;: The Battle Over Authenticity<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Beyond White Ethnicity: Developing a Sociological Understanding of Native American Identity Reclamation Lexington Books (an imprint of Rowman &amp; Littlefield) October 2006 262 pages Cloth: 0-7391-1393-3 \/ 978-0-7391-1393-6 Paper: 0-7391-1394-1 \/ 978-0-7391-1394-3 Kathleen J.
