Hiding in plain sight: Narrative and the investigation of the Native American boarding school experience (Pennsylvania).
Ormsby, Colin Andrew.

Hiding in plain sight: Narrative and the investigation of the Native American boarding school experience (Pennsylvania). - 221 p.

Chair: Lily Wong Fillmore.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of California, Berkeley, 2002.

This dissertation examines a particularly problematic time in the history of this country and in the society's relations with the indigenous peoples in this country, the Native Americans. Specifically, this study examines the effects on Native American children of the boarding schools operated by the Bureau of Indian Affairs, beginning with the opening of the Carlisle Indian School soon after the Civil War ended in 1879, to their eventual decommissioning in the 1930s. What were the motives of the federal government in establishing these schools, and what role did members of the white benevolent societies, such as the “Friends of the Indians,” have in promulgating and running them?

520 $a This dissertation examines a particularly problematic time in the history of this country and in the society's relations with the indigenous peoples in this country, the Native Americans. Specifically, this study examines the effects on Native American children of the boarding schools operated by the Bureau of Indian Affairs, beginning with the opening of the Carlisle Indian School soon after the Civil War ended in 1879, to their eventual decommissioning in the 1930s. What were the motives of the federal government in establishing these schools, and what role did members of the white benevolent societies, such as the “Friends of the Indians,” have in promulgating and running them?
520 $a The dissertation investigates the interaction of these three critical populations through an analysis of government and society documents and individual narratives by Natives and officials. Most specifically, it analyzes narratives of four individuals who attended some of these schools through a postcolonial lens to discover how these individuals viewed their experience at the schools. First, the dissertation scrutinizes government actions through frames of both explicit and covert policy narratives. Second, it looks at the writings put forth by the benevolent organizations that championed these schools through official and humanitarian frames. Finally, it analyzes the stories of the individuals who attended the schools through the modernist categories devised for them by social scientists of the 20<super>th</super> Century, categories such as assimilation, acculturation and resistance.
520 $a This study focuses on four autobiographical and biographical narratives of adults who attended these boarding schools as children. It considers how these categories have been used by others to collapse the stories of Native Americans into a single narrative, specifically from the perspective of the larger society as opposed to examining the lives of the Native Americans who attended from their own perspective. This work is meant to call into question some of the traditional forms of modernist research methodologies that rely on a singular narrative to represent the diverse experiences of individuals in any community.
