Thesis (Ph.D.)--Indiana University, 2016.

There have been many versions of back bustles that have existed over time, and the back bustle has existed within many contexts---ceremonial, religious, social. The purpose of this dissertation, in very general terms, is to explore the history, symbolic nature, and development over time of the back bustle as it existed in the context of War Dance on the Northern Plains, focusing particularly in the area of present-day South Dakota and working particularly with men of Lakota and Dakota ancestry. I examine how War Dance serves as a context in which the story of Native persistence and anti-colonial refusal is continually written through material culture. The use of the bustle has experienced great distribution across the Northern and Southern Plains, as well as common usage among virtually all tribes who take part in the modern intertribal powwow. Understanding the material culture of War Dance as a text through which stories of Native survivance are written and community-generated definitions of anti-colonial masculinity are referenced, it is possible to examine the relationship of various modern understandings of "Indianness" and chosen representations of the self within contemporary American Indian dance communities. Beyond this, I examine the manifestation of these identities in modern powwow clothing. The dance arena has proven to be a unique context for the expression of social identity and decolonization, and in many ways a "safe-place" to communicate Native survival to the settler. Within the powwow, traditional roles have been adapted and modified to correspond to modern culture, while drawing on historic societal norms. My work critically engages the influence of ideas about race and ethnicity and brings current ideas about identity to bear on men's traditional dance and the ways it has consistently challenged colonialism, racism, and isolation. The point at which ideas of tribalism and intertribalism, warrior status, humility, and masculinity intersect is evident in the performance of the individual dancer.
