The
Hunt for Willie Boy: Indian-Hating and Popular Culture
by James A. Sandos, Larry E. Burgess (Contributor)
In the popular imagination, the clash of Native American nations with
Europeans is seen as a series of battles and massacres, of large events.
History operates on much smaller increments, as Sandos and Burgess demonstrate
in their study of an incident in California in 1909. A Chemehuevi Indian,
Willie Boy, killed another Chemehuevi and kidnapped his daughter, whom
he later also killed. Indian-on-Indian crime did not attract much attention
in those days, but white law-enforcement officials decided to make a lesson
of Willie Boy, whose "violence exemplified a 'return to savagery' of a
supposedly assimilated Indian." Hunted by a huge posse, Willie Boy died
by his own hand. But during the manhunt, sheriffs removed dozens of Indian
families from their oases "for their own protection." Those families would
never return. Amazon.com
