From the Slides: Plains Cree scholar Emma LaRocque in her book When the Other Is Me: Native Resistance Discourse, 1850-1990 shares how this civ/sav dichotomy also surfaces in a “double standard” in how Indigenous and Western societies are discussed:
“In this war of words, Whites explore, Indians wander; Whites have battles or victories, Indians massacre and murder; Whites scout, Indians lurk; …Whites defend themselves, Indians “wreak revenge”; ….Whites have “faiths” and so they pray; Indians have superstitions and so they conjure; (LaRocque, 2010, p. 50)
