Descripción
Sumario:This book traces the history and legacy of the commonwealth of Virginia's effort to maintain racial purity and its impact on the relations between African Americans and Native Americans. The author tells the story of Virginia's racial purity campaign from the perspective of those who were disavowed or expelled from tribal communities due to their affiliation with people of African descent or because their physical attributes linked them to those of African ancestry. The author also explores the social consequences of the racial purity ethos for tribal communities that have refused to define Indian identity based on a denial of blackness.
