Summary Annotation Huff (American Indian Studies, California State U.-Fresno) explores the rise of institutional racism and the fall of public education in the US taking the history of American Indians over the past century as a model. She compares the tribal, mission, and Bureau of Indian Affairs schools and curricula, and the assumptions each system made about what role Indians should play in modern society. She concludes that if the US government had really wanted educated and self-sufficient Indians, they would have chosen one of the successful models of education available in the 19th century.
